ORIGINAL: Sunnyfey The only thing it's doing really is, leaveing my members feeling attacked. This is the important part. As an organizer, your responsibility is to the group. You have the right to do what is best for the group, regardless of what the exes may think or say about it. Offer up a warning -- if there is any flaming or attacking of the group or any of its members, anyone who does so will be removed. Tell all of your members that if anyone contacts them outside the group and makes them feel uncomfortable or threatened, to let you or your sister know and you'll remove the offending parties. Make it a blanket policy for all members. Then, if the badmouthing continues, you can remove the people doing it. After all, you gave them fair warning. It's up to them to act like adults. I run or help organize several groups and this is how I've always handled this type of situation. It works and your members will respect you for putting their safety and well-being first.
