Walking for Wellness

[tyme]

Thanks for bringing this to my attention @TAB !

Yes yes... please let me clarify in relation to posting kms, BMI, weight etc.

This is an extract from SANE's guidelines:

You can access the guidelines here: https://saneforums.org/t5/help/faqpage

I understand this thread is to encourage walking and wellness so naming kms walked does not seem harmful. However, to align with our guidelines so that particular members of the community can feel safe, we ask that you do NOT share specific numbers related to weight, kms, BMI, clothing size etc. Our system automatically flags and blocks these posts which contain specifics.

Examples of posting can be:

- I walked several kms

- I walked more kms than yesterday

- I beat my personal best

I'm sorry for any confusion this has caused. 

If it makes you feel any better, when I was a Community Guide, I also posted specifics related to kms and it was flag by the system and blocked.

Please continue to share your Walking for Wellness experiences here!

Ooooh! Thank you for being so responsive @Oaktree .

I was just drafting up an email to check whether you needed support to edit the post.

Thank you for being so understanding.

As much as in this context, there is no harm intended, we just want to make sure others feel safe.

The encouragement you have given me and the community is highly highly appreciated @Oaktree . Each day, I have this thread in my mind to remind me to go for a walk 🙂

Thanks @Oaktree ! We really need your incredible posts to continue 🙂 At least your posts keep me accountable - in a good way 🙂

Kindest, tyme

Aww @tyme you are so sweet. It took me a bit to find the post to edit it but I eventually found it. Found a couple other posts there too but I will look at them later.

Hi @Christheart ,

Unfortunately, our system flags any posts which contain numbers related to weight, BMI, kms in line with our forum guidelines.

I will send you an email to help you repost as I believe your post is definitely something to celebrate!
