I have wondered lately about accountability.I am blessed that my husband has a comp tech business and when I post to friends who are the opposite sex he knows about it.I wonder though how many pm the opposite sex and think nothing of it or get into conversations either on the net and I don't mean this forum but any forum with members of the opposite sex and allow it to continue in an immodest fashion.I agree with the main topic idea.
We should always remember Jesus is looking over our shoulder even when
humans aren't.

I saw a post where someone posted a really good article about this last week - not sure where it went, but it was worth reading.

I've PM'd those of the opposite sex and thought nothing of it. Conversations have been about general things, nothing that I would classify as overly personal or inappropriate and I've had no long term ongoing conversations. Its just basic common sense. I don't believe PMs in general with the opposite sex are taboo.

The accountability HO is referring to is in regards to PUBLIC posts on this forum.

That said, I wonder why certain people are allowed to post things and hours later have it deleted as if they'd never said it.
It's a good thing some things are deleted. Thank heavens they are! More need to be, but of course it's the admin's discretion what is and isn't.

I've noticed in doing searches that some posters have had many of their posts deleted. Why? I don't know. LOL

But I'm glad that we as posters have the 2 hour window (thank you SO much Admin for this feature ). I use it often, because I change my mind whether or not to say something or whether it needs to be said, or for fear of causing offence or because I misunderstood what someone said, etc.

I try very hard to make it a habit to say what I mean and mean what I say...but that doesn't mean I haven't needed to edit or rethink things I have said, and I'm quite thankful in a couple of cases that I had the opportunity to either delete or have a post deleted by Admin.

I understand to a point, and I think the one-hour window (or however long it is) is a pretty good compromise.

What is very annoying is when someone deletes a post, not because they regretted it, but because they don't want to be held accountable for what they said, and I think that is what HO is trying to say.

It's one thing to say: I shouldn't have said that; I'm sorry; can we undo it? And quite another to say: If I don't delete that I'm going to get into trouble--someone please save my hind end.
