In reply to the discussion: My thoughts on Neoma's actions (as if they matter at all) [View all]Lisa D
(1,532 posts)it was posted on a public forum. And the other hosts saw it as well. Thin skin or not, I can see why Neoma might have felt threatened in her position as a host when no one came to her defense to simply have a dissenting opinion.
What was her recourse? Does anyone know? None of the other hosts said anything--maybe they were afraid of losing their hosting position too, if they appeared to take one side or the other. So what was Neoma supposed to do? If she'd come to the group, she'd be accused of betraying the confidentiality of the off-site forum. And I can only imagine the hue and cry if she'd unilaterally gone to the admins with her concerns.
She might have believed her only recourse, other than what has occurred, was to become subservient to iverglas if she wanted to remain a host. Is that part of the SOP?
Again, I'm not saying that I agree with her actions after that discussion. But too many posters here act as if Neoma had no reason to be concerned with the direction the off-site hosts forum was taking and that's simply not true.
