This is the first I've seen of your new avatar. These words and that avatar, I like it! :) The ponies, they hate us.

This new PM talk is very, very, disturbing to me (On several levels)

I really don't care (nor do I believe it is the business of any on the board) to hear, read, or learn about private messages. (No matter what is said in them)

As one who uses, and enjoys the PM feature, I expect those private messages to remain private (Without exception), and feel that anyone who posts PM's, or makes references to the content of PM's on the public board (No matter the reason) is grossly in the wrong and places the entire board at risk. Period.


Peace,

Don't trust that what you say in chat, will stay in chat, either. PM me and I will tell you who you can't trust specifically.

That is exactly what I'm saying.

It really doesn't matter that Liz didn't bother to learn both sides of the story or even comment on Ray's nasty and filthy PMs to me. It doesn't matter that she has publicly maligned me without learning the facts. It's obvious that Liz is only concerned about her "friend" Ray.

What really concerns me and what Liz is having a hard time understanding and taking responsibility for, is that she was a Moderator and immediately deleted a PM and then shortly thereafter started publicly commenting about the PM on "The Cafeteria".

I think Ceeboo is correct that every member of this board should be VERY concerned that Liz is a Moderator. She sees nothing wrong with deleting a PM that Ray posted and then immediately posting such information on "The Cafeteria".

Liz, if you can't understand that your behavior is inappropriate, then you need to step down immediately. Liz, I really think it's time to go.


I actually concur with this, as well.

Liz accepted private information from a chat I had with others, then made a rash judgment about me being the mole and banned me from her board. Jersey Girl is the one who divulged that private information from the chat.

Learned something I should have learned a long time ago. Watch out for the catty types. Claws.

My board is now deleted...so the issue of anything on my board is now moot.


Awww shucks. I liked the board. We couldn't self moderate? Any chance of a resurrection? Perhaps keep all the old posts deleted because resurrection implies our sins are remembered no more? As much as I liked to post on it, perhaps do it without me if it'll make everyone feel more comfortable?

Let me attempt to hit the third base here.

There are people on this board who choose to function behind the scenes in nasty ways. They too, have failed to bond to anyone else (that's their choice) and choose to employ their tactics on others in order to hurt, offend, do damage to others.

Earth to you folks: Don't do nasty ass stuff in front of me and expect me to hide it for you. You know who you are. Got that, gramps?


FYI: Your name came up before I said anything at all.

Catty types, eh? How about people who accept/share information in order to torment others in public and expect witnesses to hide it for them? What are those? The upstanding side of the house?

No part of me is going to cooperate with your nasty dealings by looking the other way and I'd do it again in a New York minute.

What's this? You entice a poster to PM you about who can't be trusted in chat and 15 minutes later, you name me?

Who's the catty one again? I forget. ;-)

And you're right. Don't trust me to hide dirty dealings in chat that are intended to harm or torment others in public.

Never trust me in that situation.

If you think I'm going to sit by and watch someone like Liz be disparaged repeatedly on board like this or even on her own board, knowing what it was doing to her stress-wise without telling her what I've witnessed...you got the wrong Jersey Girl.

There are multiple references on this thread referring to Liz's health concerns. You, just like DCP, have chosen to ignore those in favor of feeding your own vanity. So far as I am concerned, the both of you can go straight to hell.

Then what are you doing keeping it going, if it is not to feed your own vanity?

Liz asked me not to bring anything up about you not keeping what goes on in chat, in chat. I said I would think about it. I sent you a pm to take care of it privately, but you disregarded that, obviously.

And, then, I wake up and see you stuck my name in to your catty rantings on this thread. So, have your tizzy. You are as two-faced as anyone else on this board. Should I let the snapshots of the earlier chat out so people can see how you trash them, Jersey Girl, when they aren't around?

And, I agree. You can also go straight to hell.

Now, I think I will settle down to a few episodes of Californication to regain my moral bearings. Cheers, Jersey Girl.

edited to add: I think the image of Dan and I in hell together is too rich to pass on. I see the both of us sitting around the naked lake of hellfire. I am of course hitting on a bong and listening to Miles Davis (bitches brew, of course while dreaming of Jersey Girl.) Dan is working on his notes for the later bonfire get together (Camus and Anti-Mormonism, of course). We are both chillin when we hear Jersey Girl behind us with her battery-charged power sander threatening to give us a permanent wax. We become instant friends and ward her off with our priesthoods.

Thanks for the inspiration, Jersey Girl!

I think this thread was a self-fulfilling prophesy.
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

Dan's already made clear he doesn't condone violence against any ex LDS folks, SP. This quote was from 3 years ago. Its astounding you guys hold on to things so long. Get over it. He made a joke 3 years ago and you guys are stilling whining about it. At some point you guys have got to learn to drop things. This episode clearly started due to Scratch's quoting of someone to go after others. Its astounding to see where you guys will take this in hopes to save face. I guess it works when you're just sitting with each other as friends whimpering and whining about other folks.

Jersey Girl wrote:stem you are simply wrong. Scratch has carried assualt rifle comments as a sig line for quite some time now. The assault rifle comments originated with DCP himself.


What does that have to do with this episode? We're talking about comments made by Wheat involving DCP alluding to some joke 3 years ago? Some folks have got to learn to let things go. This is pathetic.

DCP carries one of Scratch's statements as his own sig line on the Cafeteria. Take a look at that.

The only person who could have prevented this OP from seeing the light of day/screen is DCP. There was no need whatsoever for him to post these OP's on MD&D and the Cafeteria.


So? That's a far cry from what Scratch was doing.

When he was contacted by Will S. he could have simply asked Will S. for a link to the thread in question or he could have re-registered on this board and done it himself.

But he didn't.

Instead of asking Will to do this for him, he put it out to the posters of two boards to do.


Whose to say Will S. was aware of the source himself? What does that matter anyway, when part of the reason DCP responded, as he suggested, was to contradict what he saw as public slander.

You cannot rightly blame this on Scratch when DCP who claims to have departed this board continues to engage it on two other boards.


What? That is asinine. Seriously. DCP is to blame for Scratch's efforts to paint him as a violent man? DCP is to blame for everyone elses inability to let things go, move on and stop whining about him? I'm afraid you have drunken some pretty strong kool-aid.

Again, the disclaimer: I am not posting in support of Scratch nor am I posting in staunch opposition to DCP. They each play their part. I am simply commenting on this particular situation and evaluating it as I see it.


The way you see it is clearly slanted and biased against someone. Its a wow for my part.
