Steve I just want to make sure I am VERY clear on this one. If I , as the originator of a thread in "the other side" wish to be receiving responses from every one on this forum, I mearly state that either as the opening line of my post or as the subtitle of the post correct?

Correct. I recommend adding a note in the post title that it's open to guests, then in the first line of the post stating it's open to guests and including any necessary details about what guests if necessary.

How does this rule apply if I am not the thread creator but would still like to have responses from all site visitors?

In that case, you should either contact the thread creator and ask whether he/she would be willing to open it to guests and if so, one of the two of you posting a reply to the first post in the thread as described above. I'd also be open to moving the thread to the general forum on request from the thread creator.

And conversly, in the Victim's and Survivors forum, I am completely unable to post either as a thread creator for a specific victim issue I may be having or in response to a victim that creates a thread even if that victim specifically requests responses from everyone including RSO's?

Correct. If a thread creator in that forum wants responses from those not permitted in that forum, the thread creator can either post the thread in the general forum or later ask whether it can be moved there. I realize that I am handling the two forums differently. That's because I feel there is more potential for a reader and prospective poster to the Victims and Survivors Corner forum to be made uncomfortable or worse simply by reading a post there by certain types of individuals, regardless of the actual content of the message being read, than is the case if the same should occur in The Other Side.

I'd like to close by noting that in my recent site policies post, the words "Until further notice" should not be overlooked. I am instituting some changes and I will be evaluating their effect. This isn't directed at you, but I wanted to say that no one should assume this is a final solution and alternate and additional changes in policies, procedures and mechanism won't be considered and implemented.

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.

<blockquote><span class="mb-quote">Posting to The Other Side forum is limited to sex offenders, pedophiles and their friends, relatives and supporters. If the creator of a thread in The Other Side forum is open to others responding, the creator may invite specific users, types of users or all others to respond. Such users should consider themselves guests and are expected to act accordingly.

Sex offenders and pedophiles are not permitted to post messages to the Victims and Survivors Corner forum. In addition, anyone whose participation is likely to be found offensive, triggering or inappropriate by victims/survivors and their friends, relatives and advocates, as determined by an administrator, will not be permitted to post messages in that forum.

Sorry if it seems like I am questioning your rules, but I honestly have no desire to seem that way I just want to ensure that I know the rules prior to violating any of them.  I believe I heard it quite a few times (even on this site) that "ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking the law".
