Ami you had both of us on that!I'd already approved it when charlie PMd you :P x
There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
Well duh
but 'severely triggering' depends on the person.
discussion on purging doesn't have much of an effect on me, but to someone else they might not want to read the thread.
idk the terms are REALLY subjective.
Maybe go for labels about what kind of behaviored you're asking for help / ranting about?
I think behaviour labels were discussed, but as quite frequently one post may mention several behaviours, I think the idea was scrapped. I dunno if maybe a graphic label, or something along those lines could be used instead of severe? That's probably the wrong word but I can't really think of anything better...
Wake me up before I change again
Remind me the story that I won't get insane
Tell me why it's always the same
Explain me the reason why I'm so much in pain.
Kel had a big long post on why that idea was scrapped. I will go look it up
Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

wasn't the idea of having the binge eating forum scrapped at one point too tho?
No,from the start of discussions on the BORIS board the idea was never scrapped.x

Agreed.
I never know whether to put 'mild' or 'severe' on my threads, and my choice of label usually depends on my current mental state, rather than objectivity and thoughts about how it might affect other readers.
Also, I think the trigger labels are slightly overused on the ED board, with every single thread being marked as triggering, which imho defeats the whole purpose of the label, to warn a potential reader.

Also agreeing with the whole ED rules thing. But I have commented on that before, so I'm not going to bring it up again, so yeah.

Another thing. Although obviously things have improved a lot compared to some time ago, I still notice that newbies don't get as much replies and support on the ED board as regular members, so I think it's still an issue that needs to be addressed. I remember at one point people were encouraged to make sure every thread had a certain number of replies, that kind of thing. Perhaps we could have another campaign like that, just to refresh everyone's memories.

I don't feel a divide between te general ED board and BORIS. With my ED, I tend to switch between BORIS and EDS, and I feel pretty comfortable and accepted on both boards. So I think it's going well.
Generally though (not EDS-specific), I think the mods are doing a great job.
Sorry but its very very rare that meets take weeks to approve and I think there are plenty of members who will vouch for the fact that their meets are approved almost immediately.If you feel your meet hasnt been approved,feel free to PM both charlie or I again and we will answer.There has never been a meet that hasnt gone ahead because we havent approved it.
We tried to have a London meet last weekend but were unable to because it wasn't approved in time
We're hoping not to have the same problem with arranging a new date...

I don't know much about technology, but if you could pass on to Harley/James that it'd be good if using the "ignore" feature would stop the person you've ignored reading your posts too. I don't know if this is even possible.
