That is how they use those terms. Some people feel confused how x can be harassment or abuse over at A+ and that is why. Also, once someone says they feel abused or harassed if you try to question them about it that is called "gas lighting" and one can be banned for it.

Eowyn Entwife didn't exactly leave much room for the possibility that it was a matter of interpretation, though. Her post is a fairly straightforward accusation of intentional harassment.

Imagination Theory wrote:So, with the limerick thing 3 people there felt harassed. So Globe (and anyone else who makes someone feel something bad) was suppose to try to understand where they were coming from, not get on the defensive (which some thought was threatening) and then say "sorry".

Then Eowyn should understand how accusation of intentional harassment affect people. Glob the Funct had every right to call her on that.

I keep on getting his name wrong. Not on A+, no. If someone says "I feel abused, I feel harassed" no one can question that without it being "gas lighting". Also, when someone says "I feel abused, I feel harassed" that doesn't always mean they are saying "you are an abuser, you are a harasser". That is why one should not get upset. One is suppose to say "sorry" and understand what they did wrong.

This isn't what I think, I actually disagree with it, but those are the rules and guidelines at A+.
