Well Since We Are All Like A Virtual Family Here

Thanks all for your love and support. I feel Auntie M.s pain and she is in pain. The pain that only a few individuals with treachery in mind unleashes on a person that not only lived for the progression of the forum and was planning to bring some fresh new ideas and let the membership decide if they wished to accept or reject them without explanation. I owe my loyalty to her for she and a fair number of other members here helped me get over a few hurtles, a time or two she stuck her neck out defending me from some members here who had some agendas after finding out my dad who was my best friend was Haitian and my mom who I loved more then my own life was Israeli. It hurts when a member or two alludes to me being a half breed two time loser. Well I said my piece. Take care all.

So, did a troll manage to drive @Aunt Marg out? If that craps's happening, we'll need to reappraise this site.

Jon, She messaged me today and tried to message you but was told you were unavailable.
She said her good-byes. It wasn't entirely the troll. There are a few members who drove her away.
And to those, Why must you be so mean?

Now, Fast Trax is leaving too? This is beyond sad! TWO WONDERFUL PEOPLE DRIVEN AWAY BY UGLY COMMENTS!
Maybe before we hit the "post reply" button, we should re-read what we wrote!
I'm very sad at the leaving of both of these wonderful people! We don't know how lucky we were to have them here!

I know this site has had several people who seemed to relish in personal attacks and getting threads shut down when the posts don't suit their narrative. If the mods get too disgusted with a thread (i.e., reports galore) and shut it down without banning the trolls or, at least, giving them a time out, then the site will go bad. That's the thing I look out for. If it troll-based thread locking persists to any significant degree, I just move on. Got better things to do.

Edit Update: If the troll got banished and Marge is still here, that's a good sign.

Fast, I am mortified that anyone here would treat you in such a vile and racist fashion. I am so sorry you had to endure such hatred. 🌹🌹🌹

The long knives have been in operation for months, we have lost some good people as a result.

In the U.S. the type of vulgarity posted about AM may be harassment, but does not rise to the criminal level of Telecommunications harassment. However, there does exist a fine legal line, and if the poster transmits such a defacto message out of their home state, that becomes a Federal offense.

I truly hope that this time the long knives clique will face consequences for their actions. In my opinion, if left unchecked, they will destroy this forum. I have been here for almost seven years, it would be terrible to see my SF family disintegrate.

Title 47 USC (United States Code) 223:

(C)
makes a telephone call or utilizes a telecommunications device, whether or not conversation or communication ensues, without disclosing his identity and with intent to abuse, threaten, or harass any specific person;

"Harass" here is specific and does not include what was posted about AM, she is in Canada anyway. Anyone at anytime can say there were harassed/annoyed, that is internet life.

Yes. I was referring to actions taken internally, here on sf. There has always been a mandate that we are not permitted to abuse other members.

Could someone please pm me with the details of what y'all is talking about? I promise to keep it a secret. I'd really like to know.

Thank you.

PS: Hate the word 'Haters'. Used to use the word love more. Does anybody remember laughter?--RP

If you call me a hater, then I call you hater, where does this nonsense end?
