Edited to add by myself - 3rd June 2023 :
This post was flagged by someone and I got an automated notice about it that s/he thought this post was off topic. Just one silent flagging button suddenly and s/he wanted this post to be deleted. I now have a right to edit this post, so I would like to ask the person who actually pressed the flag botton to contact me directly via a private message about this matter and explain why.
Just one silent flagging button for this post by me by someone suddenly sounds so unfair to me as s/he probably just wanted to make me feel even smaller publicly. S/he could have politely told me that s/he thinks this post by me is somehow off-topic in this thread, which s/he did not…
I hope this is still on topic.
I once had a serious discussion somewhere on the Postcrossing forum in English with several more people including native English speakers.
This one native English speaking person told me publicly I was harassing this other member in the thread so I should stop that. Then, I explained publicly I was not harassing the person. I was just trying to have some discussion regarding certain postcards.
Then, I sent the person a private message and asked her to delete the post where she insisted that I was harassing this other member because it seemed like the person was harassing me by saying that publicly and making me feel small. Then she said she would not delete it and she would stand by what she said publicly. And this person even laughed like, ha ha ha, in private message to me with the same attitude. So, I eventually messaged the person back privately to tell now it is you that is harassing me.
Then this person stopped messaging me back privately.
I did not find this Postcrossing experience friendly, polite or respectful at all…
So, I would still suggest the same as in above and ask for further understanding.
