No need for introductions...you know who I am..... I , like you, started to IM this ...but I think everybody should see it.....I just read your touching apology ...I'm not trying to start nothing...I just wanted to ask you one question......WHY NOW?  I, along with several other friends of mine, stopped posting on this board a while back becuase of the way YOU were treating ppl...not showing respect to the very members that made your board what it was....and now it seems that since the members have found another place to converge and talk about the group they all love...you wanna apologize??? Honestly, I think that it is wayyy too late to save this board. Like I told you a while back....it's the members who make this board...not YOU....I guess you finally see that now though. I know that you'll probably delete this...just like you do all the other posts that contain the truth.....but oh well..I've spoken my peace. Holla atcha girl. |

.......... and you're right, I started to delete this but I guess people feel the need to discuss it. As long this stays a discussions then cool. If it turns into a bash fest then there's no point in continuing it (hint, hint.) The reason "why now" is two-fold, the lesser of the two being that something I've been involved in for months and would have taken me away from the board regardless of how I felt toward everyone ended yesterday. I would have had more time to devote to the board starting today anyway. But the greater reason, and I explained this in the other thread, is that I became aware that several posters on this board whom I disliked had, in essence, "left" it. (Or at least finally found another board as I had been encouraging forever.) Again I didn't think it was right for me to ban someone soley because I didn't like them and that caused me a great deal of stress. When they "left" that stress was taken away. Again, if some people feel like they no longer want to post here and want to go somewhere else, then it's probably the best thing for everyone involved. Now, my question for you is who are you? I'm a little bit puzzled as to why someone is upset with how I treated other people on the board when they only joined four days ago. |

Let me repeat, if you all want to discuss this, that's fine. If you want to vent your anger on me, I suggest you do it elsewhere.  |

If you reread my post...you'll see that I said I USED to post here......it's me.....c5 aka PG better known around the 'net as Chelle....Paul's #1 fan....anywho..... and .....Yes, this needs to be discussed. I didn't come here to "bash" you....I'll save that for Otis. |

That is if you are talking to me. How ever long I've been posting means nothing! |

And the question I would pose to you Chelle, with all due respect, why are you only asking this about me now? I'll admit I let my feelings toward people fester ........ but I would venture to guess I wasn't the only one. You are proving that you being cool about this and wanting to discuss it an decent manner, it's a shame we didn't do this earlier.

You are proving that you being cool about this and wanting to discuss it an decent manner, it's a shame we didn't do this earlier. I haven't let anything fester...I am way past that....I just left and went to my own board...just as I was directed to do. I have thought about coming back here many times..but everytime I came here...I saw that things had not changed one bit since I'd left... so I just stayed far away from this board. I'm not sure If I'll be staying ...I just wanted to let you know what was on my mind after I read your post. If ppl continue to be closed lipped and never tell you how they feel or how your actions...or the actions of other members are effecting them.....things will only get worse here....and this board WILL suffer more...you can believe that. |

That is right. And if people have an issue with me, I wish they would let me know. Apparently I wasn't doing a good job of making that clear.
But if you're past it, again, why bring it up now? (nothing wrong with bringin it up, I'm just asking are you really past it?)
