I really think that you need to stand back and take a more objective view of events just lately Ammi, because CLEARLY some people are being DISMISSIVE of our complaints, and still others are being PERSONALLY CRITICAL of us, and their comments amount to attacking us.

I witnessed another thread yesterday, where decent, honourable, and long-serving members were subjected to a barrage of the most unnaceptable immature abusive comments AND mockery by supporters of the Mod in question.

Opinions on here among a huge number of members are driven more by who they are 'friends with' and which 'Celebrity' they are fans of rather than any objective and dispassionate weighing of facts - in my opinion.

Do you think that ANY ONE of us would 'conjure up' these problems which we have experienced just to make waves, when - as mature, intelligent adults - we KNOW that the ensuing tsunami will DROWN US?

I'm sorry, but I really do not hate anyone on here - my life is too full of REAL living for that to be the case, yet I MUST stand up and be counted for what I KNOW is MY truth, and if that truth casts a friend of yours in an unfavourable light, and if you take umbrage because of it, then there is nothing that I can do.

All I ask in REAL life, is that I am treated the same as the next person by those in authority - not better, not worse, but the same - and it is no different upon here.

..I don't know Kirk...(I'm going to bow out of this for the moment because I need to get something to eat...)...but the wording that you're using 'us' seems to suggest a mindset of 'them and us' and I honestly think that might be contributing as well../that mindset...


..I can't always say that I can be completely objective/no one can/and no one is ever not ironic or hypocritical in behaviour at times either ..I see what everyone sees though and with the infractions/bans/warnings etc the ones I'm aware of...whether they be someone I'm close to or not...?...I also see why they were given and most people who receive them also fully understand and accept the reasons why as well...only the occasional things I would say might cause some confusion as to the situation in Cherie making the thread, which Josy has said she'll look into...
