And JFTR, I have tried commenting on posts of yours and/or saying nice things. You ignore everything I post so I get tired of having to be the one that's always "taking the first step" or being nice. Maybe when you start commenting on my posts I won't be what you call rude and condescending.

I don't know who s/he is/was. I don't even care. I just get tired of the attacks and personal insults. And yes, I realize they go both ways. One wrong does not, however, make a right.
I see. So, just to make people feel welcome, you think we should just let them be condescending, insulting, and rude, and just take it. Got it.
Why don't you try it, first?
Yep, NJn, you have been very rude to me and condescending and presumptuous to me at times. I try to not respond and sometimes emotions get the better of me. But I know now you will flame me and I will not read the posts.
My point is many times we are rude to each other. Let's just stop that crap. OK?
No, I ignore you most of the time because you make snide comments to me. YOU are the one that has been rude. Many times you have made snarky remarks. I can think of several right now.
Bwahahaha......
If you ignore everyone who has made a snide or snarky comment, you aren't reading very many posts.
There is only one here I refuse to engage with ever again.
The rest of you, yes including you NJN, are alright in my book.

For the most part I do ignore the snarky posts. I try not to post on the christian threads, bible threads, god threads, abortion threads, and all those other threads that just end up being the same old people arguing back and forth. And you're correct, I don't read meany posts. I pick out two or three and follow them. There are certain people that if they start a thread I usually don't even open it up. I always read the daily thread. Sometimes someone will pm me and tell me to go read a certain thread. Don't really care whether you believe me or not, I absolutely do try to avoid the heated threads.
I know there are people here that have made it plain and clear they do not like me. They do not comment on any post I make. They ignore everything I post. So I do the same. It's called disengaging. I'm not sure why I'm supposed to fall over myself being nice to someone who doesn't acknowledge me. I just move on and read the next post/thread.

Geez and I'm always blamed for causing drama. Say what you mean and who cares who's responding. Sometimes it feels like you should just say "I don't care what you think" and then get on with what you are saying!!!!!

And honestly, unless this person was banned from the board before then what was wrong with them coming back? I had to go back and read all the drama. It was a fair give and take of joe and the board members. This board has a tendency to be very exclusionary.
Really? Come in under a new name so you can just go off on everyone you dislike without warning?
You are out of line on this one. But if you love Joe so much, pretty sure I know where she posts. Go cozy up.

I have no idea who Joe even is. I don't even care who Joe is. I don't love Joe. Don't know Joe. Don't know what board she supposedly posts on. If you'd like to share all that information with me then feel free. Otherwise, I will remain in the dark.
And I'm sure I am out of line on this. I disagree with you so naturally I'm out of line and it's okay for people to attack me now.

Try re-reading the thread. You are the one fussing and attacking. But, yes, I'm sure it's all MY fault. Always is. Just used to it.

YOU try rereading. I said there was crap on all sides.

Awww, that was a nice little token sentence thrown in with all your scolding.
I DON'T CARE. I will say it this time and you know how much I hate that word. Joe was a TROLL. You are pretty much the only one that can't see it.

You're right. I didn't see it. You know why? I don't hang out on all the threads where everyone constantly bickers. I didn't even know all the bickering was going on because there are certain headings I can look at and just know that it's going to be the same people yelling the same arguments. I don't need to go on those threads to find out where anyone on this board feels on abortion. I already know. It's only been discussed like a thousand million times. And no one has changed their mind. Same with the gun control issue. Same with a lot of issues. It's pointless to go there and say the same thing over and over again. At least to me. But I know some people here enjoy it. They enjoy the fighting and bickering. They enjoy the drama. So I actually didn't know about anything until this very poor flounce and had to go back and reread everything. All I saw was a bunch of people bickering. But you are the mod so if Joe is a troll then she is a troll. You get to make that decision since you are the mod.

So, basically, you came in here spouting off about something you knew nothing about and then you went back reading threads with a grudge to prove you are right. You are not. And I'm certainly not the first one to call Joe a troll - not even the first mod. So, yeah, that's a conclusion pretty much anyone dealing with Joe made.
But I know you like to think you know better than everyone else.

No, actually BEFORE I posted I went back and read the threads. I have no problem sitting squarely in the minority where I sit.

I wasn't bitching about how everyone bitched to be clear. I don't give a rat's ass what people argue about on a daily basis. I even said that. I was making the point that I don't go to those threads on purpose because I don't want to read all the arguing about the same old stuff. I don't care if people argue. How is saying I don't care bitching? And the only reason I pointed that out was because I had to go back and read the threads because I hadn't read them. So now avoiding it is bitching about it... You can't win.

I like you, NJN. While I didn't see the thread where Joe was picked on or picked on us, I seem to remember Joe from another board where she/he talked about us and about goading us. I can't be certain "Joe" was the same person, but it was what came to mind when I saw her/his "flounce." New people don't flounce unless they came here with a purpose, IMO.
