"People have the right to be heard" I'm not quite understanding this since, via the 2.0 version of this suggestion, threads in the discussion forum will not be affected.

I really don't understand how people "have the right to be heard" in my art shop. I could understand the argument for something like suggestions and discussion threads (both of which are exempt from the no-posting rule) but my trade shops? My art threads? There's no discussion going on there. If I do not like you, you do not need to be there. You will not be receiving my services either way. Either way, I will ask you to leave my shop and to never post there again. You have not meaningfully contributed to a heartfelt discussion that impacts your life or your time on PFQ, you have just made me uncomfortable and have forced me to be confrontational and create public tension in my thread. "People have the right to be heard" The thing is, if I have blocked you, I have already heard you once. You had your chance. Your voice has been heard, and I responded to it. Why do I have to hear you twice?
Because people aren’t machines. They don’t spit out infallible, coherent messages all the time. Nor do they receive them accurately. Someone could misword and misinterpret and a relatively innocently intended interaction could go sour. I would rather talk to someone and figure out what they really mean and are trying to get across than assume they have malicious intent and cut all contact. Especially if the person in question is neurodivergent and prone to communication hardships. Also I’m not sure if you’re referring to me as “you” or someone else / a general “you” but I’m confused as to where I’ve ever done this. If I have, I apologize.
