Originally posted by robbie carrobieGood for you. Although your "position" has no impact on the situation, as I am sure you realize.
Ok then we shall never know the nature of the alleged abuse and whether it actually constitutes abuse or not and thus I am free to maintain my position that you betrayed a trust.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieWell, of course my stance on the existence of an obligation to keep the abuse of an abuser secret - because the abuser has some sort of "right" in this regard - is that no such obligation exists and no such right exists. Your position seems to be different but you also seem to be trying to milk comedy out of being equivocal.
Perhaps but that is not an excuse for you betraying a trust is it.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieAbuse itself can take many forms. In this instance you have publicly admitted that you felt no threat whatsoever, one is therefore under duress to ask, just how abusive was this text? did the sender call you names? did they threaten you with physical abuse? Just how likely was it that they could carry out their aims? In doing so we shall be more able to judge whether or not this alleged abuse really constituted abuse or whether it was simply bluster.
All the people I passed the PM on to were honest, respectable and fair minded regular posters. You didn't make the cut.

I personally wouldn't want a P.M. sent from someone else to you. It is confidential!!!
If you consider it an abuse then you pass it on to the administration and let them decide from what was said back and forth between the two parties involved.

Originally posted by Very RustyYou are talking about me trying to get back Suzianne's trust? Well, I am not worried about that. I haven't blocked her, and I've never sent her any nasty PMs - and never will - so the 'door' is always open. I'm easy. The people who read the PM of hers I passed on may never look at her in the same way again. But that's down to what she wrote.
Once you lose someones trust, you have to work very hard at trying to get it back. In your case, it would probably be wise not to even try.
Originally posted by Very RustyThere was no back and forth. There was just her PM. And I already explained earlier on this thread why I chose to deal with it myself rather than alert it. There have been no further abusive PMs since, so mission accomplished.

Originally posted by Very RustyIf you should ever receive an abusive and threatening from me, publish it here on the General Forum. Be my guest. If the PM was mine, I will not protest. As the abuser in such a case, you would have no obligation to keep my abuse secret.

Originally posted by Very RustyExactly he is not the kind of person that one trusts with a confidential text as is now rather evident.

You don't quite understand. They would look at what you and suz had to say previously before she sent you the P.M.!!! You may have been just as at fault or maybe even more so. Perhaps that is why you didn't send it to them. You have to admit you haven't been exactly gentleman like towards her at all.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAnd yet you have mentioned several times that you want to know what its content was so that you could "judge" it or me or Suzianne etc.. It's a funny kind of "no interest" you have been showing.
Thankyou I have no interest in reading what is none of my business.
