I'm in agreement -- he had one post going and it got hijacked -- they closed it down -- this one is useless anymore too -- I wish Bman all the best and he knows that very well!!!! But yes this thread needs to die.

You sure as heck wasn't acting that "friendly" toward me yesterday.......so I take your "get well wishes" with a grain of salt. Sorry, you dish out garbage, I can throw it back.

Now to other things, Tonsils out, 0730 Wed morning......

Yeah...Moderator, kill the thead. Since we have others that want to come in and stir up stuff......and not stay to the subject at hand.

Bman has had a bug for the past couple of weeks and it had gotten to a point they weren't sure if they were treating him correctly -- so he asked if others had the same stuff and gave a description. He has finally gotten a correct diagnosis by dr of tonsilitis. It's not that he is that important -- its that this subject was important to him to ask others so he started the thread.

I don't know that anyone can demand a thread be shut down but the first one he posted did get shut down because it got hijacked and it got ugly. On the right side of every post is a triangle like a hazard symbol--anytime you read something you feel is inappropriate to post you can click that and notify the Moderators privately and they will review the post/thread -- if they deem it necessary they can move the post, edit the post, delete the post or shut down the thread.

I'm not sure if since he started the thread he has the right to request it closed or not, but that is up to the AP and AM.

Sincerely hope we haven't freaked you out just yet with all the stuff you've seen so far -- jump into the fray and get your feet wet -- feel free to say what is on your mind...

I have seen MUCH worse. In general, we are all pretty nice to each other. We get heated sometimes, but doesn't everybody?

actually, the first one got shut down because it was posted under NEWS, and Brentenman is not a NEWSCAST. I think everyone on here hopes he gets better, but he has doctors available to him, also plenty of meds... so how could a forum help him in any way?

Also, the first one had a TITLE to it that was offensive to some of the users here.

And, like yourself, this is the first forum I have ever been involved with that allows so many threats and insults... but I think most of us has learned to deal with it in our own way Smiler

By the way, WELCOME to the forum!!!

Maybe in a few days he will be back, almost as good as new.

After reading threads like the above the past week or so....I dont' need "get well wishes" from the likes of Kindred Spirit....or anyone else for that matter who say stuff like that. That is "having your cake and eating it too" of the upmost kind......

Oh for Heaven's sakes, I guess the "child" is still out in you... geeezzzz, B'man, this is ridiculous!!!

JUST because people don't act like you, think like you, you have to be mean?

If you remember.... YOUR being MEAN to people is what got you in the pickle in the first place, and REMEMBER who came to your defense them????

Guess you don't, but I do have a record of all of it.

Kindred Spirit:

I could give a rats azz about you, your "records" and all that other stuff. I have NEVER theatened anyone..and Times Daily has that proof, which they have told me. It seems all you want to do is attack me, and "remind me" of these B.S. "records" you have about something that never happened.

I wished you would leave me alone like I have requested via PM and in public. Instead, while I am out sick, you attack me along with your other buddies (see the thread I linked previously). Your a hippocrit, pure and simple. You want to bait to get into an argument. that is all you are, a mean, old hag....with nothing else better to do.

I say again, one more time: Kindred Spirit, do NOT debate me, do NOT talk to me, do NOT have anything to do with me. I do not need your advise, I do not need your sympathy, I need nothting from you, PERIOD. I have you on ignore for a reason, yet you STILL want to push it.

If I am banned from this forum for posting the above, so be it. I could care less about this stupid forum. I have a life, appears some others do not.
B'man, I wouldn't HAVE to debate you if you were to actually remember who attacked who first.

Yes, there are records, even the Admins of this site has them, THEY pm'ed ME about the threats... not the other way around.

The reason you don't want to talk to me is because you know that I am telling the truth, and there is absolutely NO reason in the world for your wrath except in your own mind.

You are the one who is mean, cruel and abusive... and yes, I can prove it. I don't want to HAVE to take that direction because peace is what we all need on this forum. Now, if you want to remain in your little mean world, and not try to get along, that is your choice, but there is no reason for name calling, or baiting, or luring or anything like that... that is YOUR speciality.

If you want to continue being just plain ugly, then of course it is your business, but for heaven's sake, there is NO reason for all that...

Yes, we have had our disagreements, and you were much meaner than me on any of them... all anyone has to do is go back and read all the older posts to SEE that for themselves... I don't actually HAVE to prove anything, ... except for the mass PM you sent out to everyone, including me about your leaving the forum... now what happened in THAT mass PM???? Or would you rather NOT let people KNOW what I said during THAT time???

We can put this behind us, or you can keep it up, whatever you want to do, but if I see a post I want to reply on, I shall do so, because that is MY business. Anything else would mean you were trying to take what little freedom I have on this site away, do you REALLY want to do that???

I would like for you just to think about it for a while, and start remembering just how everything started, who it started with, and why... then, when you DO get to the right answers in your mind, we can talk about it.

No sense in being enemies forever just because of a few disagreements.... and useless one's at that too....

And I DID in fact wish you well, and felt bad that you were sick... or else I would NOT have even said so on this post.
KS:

I want you to do what I have requested to you, time and time again in public, PM, and in PM's to AP and AM: IGNORE ME. PERIOD.

AS I stated earlier, I do NOT need your sympathy, I do NOT need your "good cheer", I do NOT need to be attacked by you while I was in the hospital, I do NOT want to be baited by you, PERIOD. What part of IGNORE do you NOT understand?????????????????? Do I need to send you a Webster's Dictionary to spell it out for you in black and white what the word IGNORE means in the plain English language?

Do you NOW understand?
I am not the first one on here who you absolutely ignored any question if it made YOU look bad. I asked some POINT BLANK questions above, and all you did was come back and say what YOU wanted...

Well, in life, we do not always get what we want. I am not going to ignore you, if you make a post that I want to reply to, I shall do so.... I will try to do so with respect though... unlike what you did with me after me coming to YOUR defense against a BUNCH of people on here, almost losing friendships over.

Anyway... Read above, and answer the parts of it where YOU were wrong about, and be man enough to do it. I am woman enough to admit if I am wrong ... about anything... so it is time you are man enough to ADMIT that the things I have said above are true.

Like I said, people can go back and read for themselves WHO started insulting, WHO started threatening, WHO started the snide cutting remarks... it is all in the history of this site.

Now, again, the MASS PM you sent out to alot of us back when you were threatening to leave the forum.... lets talk about that briefly, YOU wanted us all to help you decide on whether to come back or not, and when... I immediately took up for you, I also IMMEDIATELY replied to every single post/poll that you had posted, bringing them back to the front page so people could SEE that it was time to let it all go... because YOU had gotten into it with several on here.

Like I said, after all that happened, I stood beside you until I disagreed with you on a couple of posts, and YOU LET THE FANGS out... you were going for blood... YOU.. NOT ME!!!

I think you are forgetting that there are STILL a lot of people on this site that was here during that time and saw it play out... you were the one who went for the jugular.

But, I was actually trying to put that behind me, and go forward... because that is just the way I am,... here and in real life... and it was STILL YOU who refused to let it go.

And when you were sick... Guess what??? THREE other people on this site was sick too!!!! No, make that 4, because so was I... but I don't get to have MY surgery until June... anyway One was sick enough not to even log on for a few days... so you were not the ONLY ONE... and the first post you posted got closed down because IT WAS NOT NEWS and at that time there was no Misc. forum... That is why it got closed, not because of me.

I think you have some things backwards, and I sincerely WISH you would open your mind to the fact that you were as much, IF NOT MORE to blame than I was...

But, I refuse to be childish about it, and I refuse to back down anymore from your insults, your degrading way of talking down to me, from your snide and abusive comments.

I also will reply to ANY post on here that is interesting to me, and shall not be told by YOU what I can reply to, and what NOT to reply to.

I don't know why you have such a HUGE chip on your shoulder, and I don't know why you feel as though you have to "DICTATE TO ME WHAT I CAN AND CANNOT DO"... but it just isnt right.

B'man, this time YOU are wrong, bad wrong. Of course, I also know you have YOUR groupies, those who were not members in the OLD Forums... and those who were NOT privvy to your Mass PM's... and those who did not know the whole story... and that is cool.. I don't mind that at all...

But, please, do not forget that there were many many people who were here on this site at the time you came 'unglued' and went ballistic on several members... then after you had time to think about it... you mass PM'ed several of us... Please take the time to remember there ARE many on here who KNOWS the entire truth of what happened, and it isn't something that YOU can sweep under the rug, just because you WANT to... it all happened... and now you have that
"holier than thou" attitude toward ME, when it wasn't even ME who got you riled in the first place... Think... think hard... because you are very very wrong in everything you are doing and saying right now...

I feel as though you are picking and choosing a couple of people to talk to, and either ignoring others, or else you are intimidating them so they don't say anything at all AGAINST you for fear or your wrath like you have unleashed on me...

Wow... you should be proud of yourself... And one thing I have to point out, you are like NO OTHER Military person I have EVER known in my life, and believe me, I have known hundreds, if not more....

"nuff said"
