Heather, I realize you're handling that thread, but I'm disturbed by her advocating violence. I'm ready to be take a bit of hardline on that. What's your input on it?

Heather Mon, 06/22/2009 - 14:47

I agree, will see if she calms down now, but she is 18( I think) and * no offense I tend to be too* ==> redneck ...lol

Maigray Mon, 06/22/2009 - 14:59

I hate to do it, but whatever happens, I'm thinking she's going to have to get a warning. Daylene was quite clear about the cussing/name calling on the other thread.

Did you see what she posted in the chat box? I VERY strongly feel that needs to be removed ASAP and most definitely feel that warrants a warning if not a temporary ban. I actually feel more strongly about that comment than anything she said on the thread. She doesn't even KNOW what Christy was talking about much less cussing and degrading openly like that.

Also, while I do feel Rusti is out of line, how many member are we willing to lose over RF's inability to know when to let something go?

lipigirl Mon, 06/22/2009 - 16:25

I agree with ACC - RF does get away with a LOT ! Rusti should not have gotten so agressive but I think she can be trusted to settle down now.

Maigray Mon, 06/22/2009 - 16:58

You simply cannot censor people for being difficult. I went back and reviewed the thread - those Choctaw horses on the links provided really are disgraceful, borderline case for calling in the RSPCA. Even CM saw it. Many, many a person has disagreed with RF, and Rusti could have gone on all day and night about it, and none of us would have done a thing - as long as she kept civil. But she didn't. That's our issue.

Okay Heather, so Rabbit came out fighting, and I thought I would be a bit proactive there...I was a bit miffed yesterday, but now I'm just disappointed. If they can just hold onto their tempers at this point, I'll be impressed, and inclined to just let the whole thing drop and everyone can go their merry way.

You handled that amazingly well, Maigray. I am thoroughly impressed.

accphotography Tue, 06/23/2009 - 16:00

I was SHOCKED and VERY impressed with RF's last post. Wow. I didn't know she had that in her.

Heather Tue, 06/23/2009 - 17:20

accphotography Tue, 06/23/2009 - 17:33

I almost believed you, that's how surprised I was. :laugh1

Btw I think Mai's tactic was HILARIOUS. :rofl

Maigray Tue, 06/23/2009 - 23:18

Well, you know what they say - if at first you don't succeed...

Have not caught up yet but this sounds like you've been having more fun !!!...will take a look.........

lipigirl Wed, 06/24/2009 - 02:30

That was very funny MG and very diplomatic - well done from me too !! :D

Daylene Alford Wed, 06/24/2009 - 16:07

Well done from me also! I go away for a few days and miss all the fun but I doubt I could have handled it as well as Maigray did. :toast :toast
