Miss Missy yes you did pm me but I am not going to go back and edit my posts I made the mistake of doing that before and the person involved decided that since the posts had been changed that there was not accountability for her on the matter.
I sent a pm and she ignored it no response at all to me and I know she read it I had it confirmed. Instead she continued to go on a posting spree and when people asked her in the thread to make amends she just ignored the posts.
I still dont understand how in this day and age someone would think it is appropriate to pm a picture of a bomb to someone under any circumstances.
What good would a pm have done it is my belief it would have once again been ignored and the situation pushed under the rug.
This is where you and I greatly differ on this opinion I have actually become very good friends with a lot of people on this thread we are planning vacations together, we communicate outside of the DIS and we laugh and cry together.
When one of our friends was hurt we rallied around her and the offending party made no effort to apologize or even come to any sort of understanding. Our friend was hurt and as a result so were we.
I have made the decision that I would rather be somewhere else than on this thread and I invited anyone who wanted to join to feel free. I didnt name any names but I am sure the offending parties know who they are
I do respect that PLD came and very quickly made a public apology - I believe if this had been done sooner by others - this thread could have been saved.
It is actually the attitude that we are not all a big family and a bit of insensitivity that lead to the problems in this thread - I will be in a thread where we all know we are friends and family!!
julia & nicks mom,
I think you are too upset still to be able to grasp what happened. I will put it here and people can think what they want. I myself know that no one anytime in this 1st Marti
mess meant any harm. What was said was taken out of context and had more to do with the comment itself and difference of
opinions. Not an attack on Marti. No one else said they were offended.
The fact that I have replied to Lisa's posts alone marked me as a bad egg to you and others. You ignored my PM today; you did exactly what you blame Lisa for.
Yes, You have made it clear to ALL of us that you have your "click" of friends, you decide who is in and who is out, but this is not High School, we are grown ups, this is a message board, why are you selecting people and at that, you are selecting the people who agree with you. I don't think you realize how it looks from here.
Accountability? here:
Here is what happened from when Marti went off.

And Skunka and Marti, we'll get to have a beer now!
Why specifically Rees??? (or something to that efffect)

I'm sure Denise has her reasons, you really need to pay attention to others when they post here. Most of us are like an extended family here.

I'm sure she does Paul. And I'm sorry .. but I have read allong since post #1. Unfortunately, it's hard for me to keep things straigh as to what happened to whom etc.
Please Denise ... don't share anything you are not comfortable with. I would hate that! I was basically trying to share that a Guest Assistance Card is available and may help some. (I recently learned of it and was able to obtain one for use with Ben.)
And Paul, what's this???? "most of us are like an extended family here"
I guess you just don't consider me one of "most of us" ..........
Then
Steamboat Marti
You have offended me for over a week now and I'm not going to sit back and take it any more. You are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine. Raise your children in whatever religion you choose, however as a Christian I was offended by some of your comments. Also, some DH do buy gifts that people like. The last straw came today. If you weren't so caught up in your own life you would realize just how insensitive a recent post was.
You have been far too negative for my taste and like Shriva, you have killed my addiction. People that want to get a hold of me know how to reach me. It was fun while it lasted.
========================================================
Now after that
mess Marti and things quieted down, all was ok, but all of a sudden, something I said became an issue 1 whole day PAGES later, after I said it?? you skipped all those pages of fun and went back to a post that was innocent. Now a you can't see a joke as joke and you get mad... and blast on the thread. You knew that would cause uproar, but you stated you were there to STOP them last week???
Um, the post I replied to below was to "bomb you with PM's"
A JOKE dear girl a joke! How can you make that an issue????
========================================================

Amy -
someone did take her seriously - I logged on and got the message with a bomb in it
the server was busy of course and it took me five VERY long minutes to see what was going on - I did not think it was funny - it was very upsetting to me
I hear that your post prompted someone else to send you a "bomb" in your pm box
I am sick of the insensitivity and I am no longer posting here
I am starting a design thread for myself - you all can reach me in there

She must of been kidding, what type of fool would actually send a PM like that?

It is clear there is a split here; you have pushed some good people away... for that I wish you would see for yourself.
Anyway, as long as people here know the story and realize this is a
pi&&ing match is all. They can do, as they want. I am sickened by it all. I hope sometime I can look at this and laugh, right now I am discussed that people don't open their arm to each other and be kind to ALL not just the ones within your "kind."
Having always been one for the underdog... my weakness is I get crazy when I see people mistreated by others. And that sparked me here. I am sticking up for someone who NOONE helped out Lisa!
