I just had a very nice conversation with a one time honorable DZW member. Some time ago he deleted himself. With little to no warning. I had assumed as to why but our conversation confirmed my premonition.

This growing trend of users repeatedly violating the terms of use agreement. The trend of Harassment towards other DZW members. The TREND Bucket here at DZW, as of yet that has not pinpointed Term Of Use Violations but some of these self anointed sinners, well I figured they deserved a place to have their sins put on public display. As a member here I try to ignore them as much as possible but after reading hundreds of posts that are outward violations of the terms of use agreement what can one do but join their sin brigade and tell them to eat s**t and die. There must be a better way. How about reiteration of their Public Display?

In all sincerity I get no kicks out of playing these school yard games. Some of The Sin House, Lyrical Liberties & DZW User Status, with their Milk & Mush agendas, they make The Little Rascals Bleak Hill Boarding School, if that was a book, look like it deserves the Pulitzer prize. So maybe this BLOG & GROUP will elevate their trends. Hopefully change for the good.

Just how "fowl", (FOWL, HMMM, seek the path to "Cackling Hens" in the Jimi Hendrix song "3rd Stone from The Sun")  does any given user want to turn up the dog shite.  How long will it be before Dweezil Zappa gets involved. Maybe some folks around here could care less but I know that a one time honorable community member deleted himself from this community quite some time ago because he just did not like the changes in the air so to speak.

Edit Note: Back in July of 2010 the DZW GROUP The Meeting Place was having some dialog where users were directly harassing other users. It was quite clear that Dweezil Zappa stepped in and reiterated what is not acceptable behavior. The harassment did subside a bit but has once again gained steam like a runaway train.

I could care less how many people join this group. It's not my intent to go on a rampage and immediately create a plethora of copy and paste record of all the harassment cases that is targeting any individual user or group. Pointedly there are many datelines in many comment and group areas that show specific violations of breaches against the Terms Of Use Contract a DZW agrees to adhere to when they sign up.
Any given user can decide to take a long hard look at their social behavior and ask themselves if they are targeting individuals with harassment that is a direct breach against the term of use agreement. The internet harassment against individuals is a growing trend. I will be sure to not only occasionally use the "report comment" feature but mirror the reported harassment in this group.
