Hello everyone,
We always appreciate your feedback, and we understand your concerns.
Each member brought for review is evaluated closely on a case by case basis, and members are typically given multiple warnings before a permanent ban is issued. We review each report submitted with scrutiny, and investigate abuse not just on the discussion boards, but in private messages, hugbooks, and other areas of the site.
Please remember that every single abuse report we receive is investigated by DS personnel, and a member will not be issued a warning unless he/she has violated the Rules of the Road: http://www.dailystrength.org/help/rules-of-the-road
We don't like to ban members, but we have a responsibility to enforce the rules to keep the site a positive place of support.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions or feedback.
Best Regards,
TeamDS

Seriously, none from here!
Rhonda, what DS "friends" spying? I hope that isn't a suggestion that someone in admin is spying on you.
I'm sorry someone is trying to make you second guess yourself.
And one person seems to be a bit paranoid. I just thought I'd mention that the boards can be viewed by anyone there is no need to be paranoid or spy.
I find it sad that you don't listen to DS about posting personal info.
Since Superduck's profile is private someone might want to get a message to her. She may want to take down the post where a number of members post there email addresses. "Just in case" http://www.dailystrength.org/groups/support-and-chronic-pain/discussions/messages/11377681
I'm not a member of this group. But I thought you should know that anyone on the internet can read your discussions they don't even have to be a member of DS.
When DS suggest not posting personal info they are doing that to protect all members yet some just don't want to listen.
Hugs & Prayers,
Mary

Interesting word for your reply 84.
I noticed you didn't post your email in the discussion I mentioned.
There was no reply nessary to my reply. I just thought those that posted their emails might like to know that anyone on the internet can read them and that the founder of that group might like to protect her members privacy.
Hugs & Prayers,
Mary
As far as I know it is not against the ROR to post your email, it may not be ok if you dont want unsavory people contacting you through this but the way I look at personal information would be phone number and address and other personal stuff an email I do not think falls under this category to most.
I was just trying to be nice. Since a member was complaining about being paranoid and people spying. Maybe she and other members didn't know that anyone could read both boards. So info they may have thought was private was out there for anyone on the internet to read.
I thought this was the better way to do it so I could reach both superduck and other members at the same time.
Thanks for the info, hopefully by now someone already got a message to her.
Hugs & Prayers,
Mary
This is TRUE .... unless they have you on IGNORE.
From the help page:
What happens when I ignore another member?
After you have selected to ignore a member, you will no longer be able to see any discussion posts or discussion comments they write. The only way you will be able to view their discussion posts is if you click on a link from within the Recent Activity section of their Profile page.
Members that you ignore can still give you hugs, send you messages, and comment on your photos and journal entries unless you have checked the "Private Messages" ignore as well.
