SI Staff (original poster moderator #10) posted at 11:54 PM on Monday, September 6th, 2010
The staff finds it necessary to address a couple of issues that continue to come up in this forum.
First and foremost, New Beginnings is one of eleven forums here at SI. This forum is subject to the same guidelines as the rest of SI.
Posting with respect, no flaming or attacking, etc.
There has been a tendency in this forum for some time to ignore the posting with respect aspect. Often times there is a gang mentality seen in here. A group piling on certain posters that aren't a part of that group.
Another issue that we have seen is that people in this forum seem to think they can tell others how and when to post. This is a public message board. Anyone can post to a thread as long as they are posting with respect and following the SI guidelines.
A moderator is the only person that can tell you where you can and can't post.
You can continue to express your opinions but with respect.There will be no more group piling on certain posters you don't agree with.
There will be no more infighting in this forum.
For those of you that have voiced that you're 'singled out' by us mods, well, you are.
This is the only forum in the history of the site in the past 8 years that we actually had to change the entire forum and description and actually write a guidelines about smut talk and completely inappropriate behavior.
Maybe its time for you all to reflect a little on how *you* behave that forces us to babysit this forum.
Either appreciate what you have here and follow the rules of the site or find somewhere else to post.

I'm not S/D, but many of my friends are. It's OK for me to post if I have something worthwhile to say, right?? If not, please accept my apologies.

Thanks for the reminder, mods.
12/18/15 found out my now EX boyfriend was trolling CL for underage girls. From the cops. The fun never stops.

No one changes unless they want to. Not if you beg them. Not if you shame them. Not if you use reason, emotion, or tough love. There is only one thing that makes someone change: their own realization that they need to.

I'm not going to let this define me anymore. He's gone and I couldn't be happier.
You couldn't have told me in July and December of 2006, but there really is a life after this mess.

What ever happened to that hot blonde single mod who used to be here???? from Florida I seem to recall?? I do lurk on this forum this year, might even start dating and it is good to read others experience.
I suppose, since I haven't posted here, that I am not one of the troublemakers.... wow... such a nice change.... I am NOT causing trouble!
I love mods! Even have some crushes on a couple of them 
..negative people beat cancer also..
SI was where I finally found people who understood.
