Diarist Bun Fights
Just a reminder that at this site, bun fights between diarists are not tolerated.
If you have an opinion on another diarist at this site you take it up with them IN PRIVATE or you keep your writing fingers tied up for the day. This site does not tolerate fighting between authors in public diaries and your diary will be removed without question if you choose to write inflammatory entries about each other. There is no 'they started it first' taken into account so be warned.
This subject comes up every so often and I have an extremely clear policy on it, formed over the last 5 years. Don't try me. The latest round of people know who they are - some of them because they no longer have access to their diary.
Steve.

Thanks Steve for bringing this up..Over the time I have been here I have noticed that this seems to come up alot, why when the rules are as clear as day is beyond me.
So I guess we say that DD is under a "no tolerance" policy now eh? ;-)
Hugs and Love,

The last thing on earth folks as busy as you all should have to deal with is infighting and the like. I've never had to deal with the sorts of things I've watched others have to deal with, but it's nice to know that you care enough to be a bit of a hall monitor and to know that if anything like that ever happened to me personally I'd be able to actually point at something and say, "Hey, quit it, you're breaking the rules."

This is a stupid question but where did the term bun fights come from? And when did it come around?
I always thought of the diary fights as more like combative blogging or brawling diarists over the years...
Anyhow, thanks for babysitting the masses once again. :)

Wow. And here I thought stuff like that only happened over at AOL's Methadone Support Message Board ;-)

My mother always referred to the yearly Boxing Day huge family get-together tea as the bun fight and I never knew what that meant either. <g> I hasten to add that there was never any fighting involved ;) It must be a purely English expression but I'm blowed if I know what it means. :-) Thanks for caring enough to take a tough stance to protect us from any future nastiness Steve. It's appreciated.
