Ref,

That's what PM's are for...individual comments.

I objected to the "paranoid" comment and still do. I also have a problem with the "do you read what you post." Also, my reason for posting what I did was just for the reason you stated, if Michelle did stop by I didn't want her seeing that go unchallenged. I would do the same for you or anyone else here that I respected.

No shit. That's why I said there was only one negative comment. That would be Sean's, not yours or anyone else's regarding Michelle

Unchallenged? WTF are you talking about? You want to make sure I don't ask people not to talk so much about her?

I'm not accusing anyone of anything. I just consider Michele a friend and now that she's a mod over at the other board, I don't feel any differently. Up until a week ago, I could hardly respond to all the people wanting to find her and bring her here. So. Now we know where she is and I presume she's happy there. If not, she's always welcome here.

OKAY?
No, not OK, no matter how large the type size you use. "Facts are secondary..." What the hell does the link you posted have to do with anything?

Here's what you posted...in case you forgot:

"I'll say one thing - I think Michele's getting way too much press over here. She didn't DO anything to any of us, and she's as free as we are to post whereever she likes. Let's lay off of her folks, okay? I know we're disappointed she didn't decide to join us here, but lets keep this in perspective."

Who are the "folks" that you are adressing to "lay off" Michelle? Facts? There they are, in your own words. Try addressing those. "Keep this in perspective"? One poster makes a negative comment about Michelle, another comes to her defense and you are speaking about perspective. It was all fairly clear until you jumped in with both feet with your instructive statement.

I guess it's safe to say that I'm not going to be treading around there much at all; I only think I had like five or so posts anyway.

Thanks for this place you guys!

LOL, who did you try to ignore?

Foes are users which will be ignored by default. Posts by these users will not be fully visible. Personal messages from foes are still permitted. Please note that you cannot ignore moderators or administrators.


You cannot add administrators and moderators to your foes list.
Yes, it's a terrible plight when afflicted with... oh, 'nuttier' moderators etc, but all things considered, such descriptors are definitely in the eye of the beholder.

To assure other BB members -

- Disagreement with me will not get you banned or censured
- Being something of a swine won't get you banned or censured: that, too, is in the eye of the beholder, though there is a line, and there always was
- Your personal business is your own, and it remains that way. There may be some anxiety on this front: messages to me aren't expected to be broadcast to Admin unless there's some element of harassment/distress from the sender

Any questions.





Therefore it is no theory! Wrong again there Wayward one

I personally invited Michele over here over a month ago. If she decides to swing by as a guest to check things out it's really not an issue. I still stop by the BM boards from time to time and I'm a mod over here. No big deal really.

Nice try but your word twisting works only in your own head. My comment was that I was not going to let the remark by Sean go unchallenged. How does that relate to you? Talk about paranoid?

That link, hard-headed DUFUS, is to another concurrent conversation about her involving more than "5" people. But now you've made this all such a BIG FUCKING DEAL haven't you and so much worse than it started out. *So, You want to take this outside? I may be a girl, but I bet I can KICK YOUR ASS!?!

(*Disclaimer: This is in no way a threat to the hard-headed DUFUS, merely and invitation to verbally beat his brains out in PMs.)

Actually, that's what diffusing a smoldering fuse in a public thread by an officer is for, but thanks for the advice.
