Also, I'm pretty much at the point with you where I'm just like, "Slow your roll, dear" because I keep explaining things to you in a calm manner and you subsequently flip your shit for no apparent reason. If you can't address me like a person, don't talk to me. I've been more cordial with you than you deserve and I'm not gonna do it anymore if you're gonna treat me like shit.

let me tell you something, babe...i'm not worried about you, alright? you got something you want to say? SAY IT. whether you do or NOT its not going to stop ME from saying what i need to say how i need to say it. If you cant handle someone calling you out then go sit down somewhere and stroke your wounded little ego.

the fact that im sitting here responding to your text with my two hands which are being commanded by my brain OBVIOUSLY indicates that i'm "addressing you like a person". just because im not addressing you the way YOU think i should be, doesnt change that. and if you or anyone ELSE here can't handle the fact that I'm being blunt and calling folks out on how they treated Buffy, OH WELL.

Now then, if you dont want to talk to me, don't. If you want to "flip your shit"...DO IT. I'm REALLY not worried and you'll find that i can take you at your measure EITHER WAY. Now, you were saying?


Sam, THAT is "mastectomy" LOL i could not think of her name so i started calling her that.
 
is she really that pressed?

I had a minor discussion with BEG last night in the IRC, in which I was irritated about the outcome of things. Not just on YC's behalf - I think there are issues here that tie in to YC's banning and issues that need to be discussed with the staff and the members to find a good route the works for everyone, because I feel like it's become pretty apparent at this point that sweeping gestures on the part of the staff just anger people and cause more drama. Not that they should, but it happens.

Part of my irritation in the IRC last night was with the fact that while I think, for the most part, I maintained a calm and level head and tried to make my point in a calm manner, we had someone like Athena bitching and berating everyone for just not agreeing with her. After the fact, I sat back and looked at some of the things she said and realized I was baited into an argument that I should've had the good sense to stay out of, which is my bad entirely. And not only that, but she gets pats on the back for 'protecting her friend' [which I don't doubt was her intention, but at the same time I feel like that was just a guise used to be rude to everyone who didn't automatically jump on the 'WE LOVE BUFFY' train], and people are saying things to the effect of, "If you mess with Athena's friends, you get put on blast blahblahblah." Someone like Athena is rude and obnoxious and no one on the staff did a thing about shutting her up while that mess was going on. That irritated the hell out of me because after that, it's just like - why the hell would I want to be bigger person in a situation where someone is acting half their age? What's the incentive here? Buffy's friends get to do it, so why can't I?

Mostly, I'm irritated because I felt like I was doing a good thing by airing these issues and putting them up for discussion but no one wanted to listen, and on top of that, no one cared. I feel like the whole mindset of the board at this point is, "Shut up, don't cause problems, just side with Buffy and everything will be FINE." And while everyone has their own individual reasons for thinking so, and while a lot of those reasons have merit, I didn't think it was part of the plan here to sit down and shut up when I felt like there was something wrong with not only the way the board was being run, but the way the membership was acting on top of it. We all have issues here, not just the staff, and if I come off like I'm singling them out I don't mean to. But if I'm wrong in thinking that I shouldn't just sit down, shut up and deal with it then please let me know.

It's a point of pride for me not to have left that thread when I did yesterday because I was being told to by some troll who's, as I look back on it now, sole purpose was to be rude and start shit with people. Not because of simple pride, but because I believe strongly in the issues I was trying to raise and I wanted at least some kind of recognition as to the fact that they're being discussed or thought over. And I didn't want to leave the board because of it, but I'm at the point now where I feel like these issues aren't going to get resolved in any way and there are still going to be problems here because of it, no matter whatever sweeping gesture on part of the staff comes next. This place either alternately pisses me off or depresses me everytime I come here now, and that in and of itself saddens me. It wasn't too long ago that I was happy to be here, happy to be in the IRC and posting and goofing off and having fun. But, y'know, Athena was right - if I don't like it, I can just leave. And it's really shitty to me that someone like Athena can be the victor of the situation and get her way - getting me out of here - but that's a sidenote to the fact that I don't think this place is going to get any better going in the direction we're going.


and what is her point? that she's mad that she couldnt shut me down? she "stayed in the thread" to save face after she got smacked around for talking shit herself and completely missing the point of the situation?

she got it right , i told her (and anyone else) if they didnt like how the board was ran or buffy or whatever else, they can leave. so why doesnt she just get the hell on?

she's obviously sore that she got "pwned" (as she put it) by me.

and why are these people CRYING so much? why dont they ACKNOWLEDGE that the staff did what was best? its like t hey're saying "Yeah but we need to talk about this because..." as if that will CHANGE anything. what is there to talk about? and IF they just have something to say, why not just take it to PM?

I hope that i havent hurt the board Vil, I was trying to take the heat off you and i was trying to put these people in theire place because even NOW they seem to be 2nd guessing you and still demonstrating that they care more about YC and her cronies than the good of the board.
 
Hey, I know hon :) And most people do too. There are just assholes left who want to vilify me and pretend that these people were innocent. She's going to get a mouthful from me...and please forgive in advance the implication that I could ever control you ;)

yes im sure they will be THRILLED to know that you rebuked me :p lol! again, i dont care about them...NONE of them would have lasted around HERE lol! they all act like they need their hands held just to cross the street.

i understand that it cant APPEAR that the staff officially sanctioned my going off on them.

im just glad that it seems like things are settling for you on that board. :) they can think what they will of me (havent people always done that on these boards? lol) but as long as they know i stand by my friends, and i keep it real thats all that matters to me.
 
That was some entertaining reading i've had the past couple days. Seriously....better than a soap opera lol.

I think my favorite part throughout the whole thing was Sperm [or whatever his name was] saying his 'wife' couldn't defend herself and tell her side of the story. I'm like, really? Are you 'internet married' or some retarded shit like that? Because i'm pretty certain your 'wife' can hop onto the computer you're using, go onto your account, and write her defense if she reeeeallly wants too LOL!
 
Farrah, you're like my body guard lol!!!

shit you wouldve seen what wouldve happen in reality if i could have somehow gotten to NYC on the spur of the moment to deal with that fool who was vexing you at the bar. :fdevil:

I was VERY angry to hear what he was doing and I was ready to come out t here and walk his ass from one side of the street to the other.

LOL! sam when you pointed out that bit about seraphuck :)D ) and his bitch wife...how could have just as easily gotten on the computer HE was on? I was like "DAMN why didnt i think of that!" i could have pointed that out why he (or s he) was trying to make people suspicious of me because of how i "suddenly appeared". but oh well. both of em are gone now so thats all that matters.

Vil, whats the status on mastectomy (or whatever her name is? ) LOL?

and on another subject i was wondering could i get the same "affiliate" status on BB that you have here on SG? :)
