Okay, I'll
admit, I'm incredibly naive. But how the heck can
you have an inappropriate 'smiley'? Even Dsorcerer
told me I can call him an 'a**hole' to his face as
long as I'm smiling when I say it. I assumed that
cancels out the nastiness of the word actually lol.
So, if these lil thangs were in fact 'smileys' wouldn't
that theory hold true there too? But in some questionable
situations, a 'leer' can often be mistaken for a
'smile' and vice versa.
Is there something called a 'leery'? and LL were
you postin' em?
Cheer up friend, I was likin' your new 'tude' it
looked good on you! Don't lose it, for anyone!

Hey Crank -
if someone gets thrown off this board, does that
mean they are "Common Grounded"?
Merry Christmas!

Lunar Lady,
before you rank and rave about what "they" did to
you, why don't you give your friends here a link
to the site where Jellybuns posted her remarks?
if you're so full of peace and good will, why are
you dragging the fight to this forum?
here's the link.

here's the link.
I judge people on what they say on this BB I'm on
and don't go running to different boards to see what
others say but thanks for the link. If that's the
way DIS is, I won't be going back.
I'm not a prude but when people talk like they do
over and over on different threads, it's really very
unattractive.
I can understand calling someone an asshole or bitch
but if certain words continue from people through
different threads about different people, well???
BTW, could you all get this fact straight...this
is not a YKW spin off board.
...I believe she posts at that spinoff site from
YKW's called "Common Ground". ....
I honestly don't take anyone seriously who continually
uses these words over and over. I have no idea what
happened over there and don't care since it didn't
happen here and I would never have read your board
had you not sent a link however....anyone who uses
Twa* and Cun* are vile in my book, sorry but those
are 2 disgusting words that I don't tolerate. It
shows nothing but lowering themself when they use
those words. If you want to send a link, send one
where people are talking rationally, not like little
2 year olds that found out they can cuss and use
bad words oooooooo
It makes them look just as silly and not proving
a point whatsoever.

Thanks for
the support, Dab. I'll occassionally let a twa* or
cun* go once in awhile, but I think I counted up
to 20 twa*'s before I finally gave up keeping track.
I totally agree with you about repetative verbage
and, at this time since they've found me over here,
I'm going to stand back for a little while and allow
them to demonstrate their character at will. There's
very little I can say about them that won't be made
apparent by their own words.
I will challenge my fellow CG'ers to this, however:
note the similarities between what is destined to
transpire on this board regarding me and past 'friends'
and what has already happened to Francine, Fantayzya
and other "friends" of a group that's gone sour.
Wait. Watch. Be aware. Thank you.
I'd rather be happy than right. |

Most of the
posters here seem fairly intelligent and sensitive,
so let's see what they think of the following scenario.
Poster1: I normally don't do this, but I was wondering
if I could get some prayer/pixie dust/good thoughts
regarding a situation happening to me and my family.
You see my wife has been sick lately, and at first
we thought it was the flu or something else minor,
but when it continued over a period of time we thought
it would be a good idea to go to the doctor. It wasn't
the flu. All preliminary tests indicate that my wife
has cancer.
Poster2:
So you make the call. But I seriously doubt that
if YKW or YKW2 or Tombo came here and posted something
like "I won't be fighting you anymore because my
spouse/child has cancer", that there would be very
many here that would be callous and hateful enough
to think that it was funny. Especially since it seems
there are a few folks here that have first hand experience
with cancer. So if making light of someone with a
terminal illness is cool in your books, then you
hve someone to look up to.

Hi SmileAwhile,
What I think of the scenario you described: It's
not the response I would make to poster 1. If I were
the moderator of the forum, I'd contact poster 2
and ask them to edit their post out respect for poster
1's feelings. I wouldn't ban poster 2, and I would
do my best to give poster 2 the benefit of the doubt.
We all make mistakes, and most of us get second chances
way more often than once in our Lifetimes. I'd do
my best to give poster 2 the opportunity to make
adjustments/new choices once the feeback is given.
I don't think I'd follow poster 2 to other forums
and attempt to foment bad feelings towards poster
2, either. To me, that's pretty much on the same
'inappropriate (imho)' continuum as poster 2's response
to poster 1. I'm not the moderator of this forum
though, so I'll just let say as a participant that
I look forward to getting to know you better in reference
to a different topic.

Don't try to smack some guilt trip on me because
I posted on some words that were said over and over
and over on different threads and not just one about
LL. If someone used those two words here over and
over I would have a problem with it also.
Sorry to disallusion you but if anyone including
Tombo etc mentioned that someone in their family
may have cancer I would not make light out of it
so please, reread what I wrote and quit with the
guilt trip. Sorry but to me, no matter how angry
you are with someone it does not justify using those
two words. And let me point out that they were used
in threads on other people also so they must be commonly
used words over there?

To TheShadowKnows
and SmileAWhile -
You have attempted to bring an argument over here
from another board. You have posted quotations and
links to other places in an effort to discredit a
member of Common Ground.
We're not really interested in LL's behavior elsewhere,
only in her behavior here.
To both of you I say - come on in, have a good visit
here. But please don't bring in any dramas - there
is "no more room at the inn".
Thank you.

and TheShadowKnows are morons.
Of all days to go looking to stir up shit, they decide
to pick Christmas. Can't people just be nice to each
other, for at least ONE day?
LL, hang in there. I checked out that link, and damn!
Those people make the stuff that's gone on here look
like Sunday School! Fuck 'em if they can't take a
joke, I say!
I'm behind you, and I bet I'm not the only one!
P.S. So, what's with this picture being discussed
in the other thread?

Picture? Do you mean of you? I tried finding a pic
of you when it was mentioned a while ago, but I couldn't.
Is that the pic you were talking about? (The one
that looks like Porthos on "The Three Musketeers"?)

Oh, I'm sorry I thought arguments from other boards
were the rule of thumb here, unless Readersclubhouse/Magicalley actually
is part of this site. Or maybe there is an exclusivity
clause in the posting guidlines that only arguments
and links from RC/MA can be used to show peoples

Speaking of
humor in terminal illness...isn't it a good idea
to KEEP your humor if you HAVE a terminal illness?
I'll have to research it some more because it's not
something I dwell on, but from all the news stories
and prior research I've done, alot of the data points
to having a sense of humor and good attitude if you're
going to pull through and have a good recovery.
I could be wrong. I've been wrong before. But, IMO,
having humor and perspective has ALWAYS helped me
out in this life. I get down once in awhile (especially
during the silly season) but, at heart, I'm pretty
much a happy-go-lucky person who sees the glass as
FULL, FULL!! IT'S FULL DARNIT!!
I'd rather be happy than right. |

I want to say so much more and copy/paste so much
more but right now I'm exercising some self control...something
the gang at the other site rarely attempts to use.
Am hoping that I can continue having some self control...sometimes
it's hard though when you see lies being told and
such hateful words being used and aimed at individual
people.
Just here to try to be supportive of LL. She is not
an evil woman by any means, contrary to what those
maniacs want everyone to think.
Not sure it's cool to be bringing stuff from site
to site though......so I'd rather just be here and
play if that's ok.

Without knowing
how the poster meant it to be taken, nor any of the
history behind the comment I can't judge. It sounds
like something that needs to be worked out by the
two people involved.
As for morbid humor, many would probably not understand
my friend Barbara and I. When we first became friends
back in High School her paternal grandmother passed
away on Christmas Eve. Last year her father died
on Christmas. A few weeks later we were chatting
on the phone, and I informed her that when we get
old, I plan to call her every hour on Christmas and
ask her, "Are you still there?"
It's so much easier to remember those who are gone,
with a smile than a tear.

There is a big difference between using humor
to uplift someones spirit and using jabs to inflict
further pain on someone who has just found out that
a loved one may die very soon. Are you trying to
say that you posted the "poor pitiful you" smiley
in an attempt to uplift, and aid toward a speedy
recovery, and thet you had no ill will or malice
whatsoever? And that your good intentions were horribly
misconstrued and now there is a witch hunt against
an innocent who was only trying to help. If
so, I guess we'll have to rely on your honesty and
general aura of goodwill to garner your true intentions.

Smile person,
you need to stop this.
Your gang has absolutely no boundaries. Your group
has been reported to several sites dedicated to fighting
hate. Your group laughs and finds it comical. I find
it creepy as heck.
You've gone after anyone and everyone. You are picking
and poking at this scab. You've gone after children
and your behavior is scary, to be honest.
Please stop.

This board was begun to give those who had been silenced
via banning on RCH a place to speak their minds.
It was not brought to light so that people who ban
and/or support banning can chase the banished all

You are waaaay off. I'm not the member of any "gang".
Can you say the same? Your threats of reporting sites
to ant-hate groups has absolutely no bearing on me
whatsover since I have never posted at any of the
afore-mentioned/linked sites. But your conspiracy-hate
rhetoric does sound remotely similar to YKW's rantings.
Maybe you should contact Bill Stanton, I hear he's
a good "advisor". And just for the record, I have
known of LunarLady since way back in her WackyWitch
days, so you Johnny-come-latelys need a history lesson
or two.
And Karma Person, your "stop because I say so" holier-than-thou
routine holds no water with me.

Ohhh ok, so no one would be allowed to come here
and say that they supported the banning on RCH and
give their reasons why because that would be stalking.
Makes you wonder who really was behind the
mass deleting that went on here. So only those offering
a different side to the story are allowed to be silenced,
and only those banned from other sies are allowed
to not be accountable. I see.

For the historically challenged among you LunarLady made
the topic her history by posting this:
quote:
In the past week, I've gotten kicked off the DIS
for posting inappropriate smileys and have had
another board call me cunt, twat, bitch, waste
of humanity, most horrible person in the history
of the world, I should die and do the world a favor
for 4 days in a row (and still counting, although
they've found other targets finally).
And LunarLady made her off board "beef" the
topic by copy/pasting this post from another board:

Reply Re: crazypagan has been banned from this board
------------------------------------------------------------
Well, well, well......CrazyPagan/LunarLady has just
reported on Common Ground that she was banned from
the DIS for posting "inappropriate smilies". Everyone
is stumped and is asking her how can you be banned
for that. She hasn't replied yet.
She also said she was banned from another board(any
guesses which board?)....and they are all calling
her "bad names"(Disclaimer...since it's Christmas
Eve I won;t repeat THOSE words) [/quote]
So I would have to say that past and present issues
with LL are specifically the topic as introduced
by LL herself.
