I have not seen Tig say anything at all to flan, so I do not understand wh6 everyone else keeps making such a fuss over it. If they are good, why business is it of O4's??

Because people care about Tig and when people treat her badly? And Tig did make a couple of comments to flan early on that flan ignored.
And as far as I'm concerned, it is the business of anyone who participated in Secret Santa.

Well, I am not defending anyone. I just assumed that since Tig and flan appear to be on good terms and have PM'ed, that there is not any drama to speak of.
Tig is the best, I certainly hope flan knows that, and acted accordingly, but if Tig is not mad at her, I don't see that anyone else has the right to be, especially a month after the fact.

And if you are DARING to insinuate that I DON'T care about Tig...

I'm sorry, my mother died years ago.
I loved my gift & thanked the person who sent it.
flan
Too bad, flan. You do this stuff publicly on this board, it's going to get commented on. Don't want comments - don't post.
And if there was no problem, there was no reason for you to not respond on the reveal thread. NONE. You can start a whole thread about another gift, but not bother to do that? You were one of the last people to post on that thread, and still didn't say a word. There is no excuse, and no defense. It was rude and uncalled for.

Yep. You KNOW how excited she gets about Secret Santa and you behaved like that. I'll do more than insinuate - I'll say it straight out. You don't care about anyone but yourself.

Try again.
flan
Baiting you? I'm not baiting you. I'm telling it like it is. I think it is HORRIBLE how you treated Tig. And even though she's too nice to say it herself, I will tell you flat out that it seems you felt the need, for whatever reason, to ruin SS for Tig. It was mean. It was wrong. And I'm also not going to sit back and let people attack ohfour because she is calling you on it. And THIS thread pushed it over the top. It makes it worse.

So it was Tig's fault you were getting nagged? That was why you thought it was ok to be rude to her?
She wasn't being nagged. Nobody said a cross word about it until it was obvious she wasn't going to bother to post. That's just an excuse. She should have opened it and posted a thank you. Whatever she says now is too little too late.

So, flan - what POSSIBLE reason could you have for refusing to acknowledge your SS gift on the SS thread?
And I know you won't answer.
I already told you; I was sick of people nagging me.
I THANKED TIG.
This is a message board & a tiny one at that. So there is a gift exchange...
People take themselves way too seriously.
flan
I'm guessing you weren't taking it seriously at all. I've never joined SS but even I know how seriously it is taken around here and it wasn't your first rodeo so no excuse what so ever.

THEN why even bring it up? I've already been convicted.
Just because YOU (general) don't like the way I acted doesn't mean that I was rude to Tig. You know nothing about our relationship.

flan
By not posting at all - you were rude. By not responding when simply asked about it - you were rude. By continuing to post on the secret santa thread after you should have said thank you - you were rude. And then to COMPOUND the rudeness by starting an entire thread thanking someone for a different gift is unbelievable. It says that NJN is worthy of a public thank you, but Tig is not. You should have thanked NJN privately as well, IMO since you couldn't be bothered to post to Tig even when she asked.
And REGARDLESS of your "relationship" with Tig - you should have completed your secret santa by posting a thank you for the gift.

I was sorry for Tig a long time ago - like on the Secret Santa reveal thread and what is missing from it. Or the threads where flan was asked about it and ignored it.
And I was sorry you thought it ok to try to ruin ohfour's birthday thread.

I didn't try to ruin ohfours birthday thread. I'm sure you think otherwise. I am sick of all this constant nastiness. What would you like to see happen? Would you like flan and I to leave the board? Would that make it better for you? What's done is done and I'm not sure what we're all trying to accomplish here.
Tig, I apologize for ruining things for you. I'm sorry that this thread is a slap in the face for you. It wasn't meant like that. I apologize to you publicly and I will send a pm apologizing privately. I have never had a problem with you and if this thread has hurt your feelings I take responsibility for that.

Good grief - this isn't about YOU. You didn't start this thread. YOu don't owe her an apology, you didn't do anything to her. But WHY you feel the need to make it about you is truly a question.
And Tig is rarely here - she probably isn't even seeing this. That doesn't mean that others can't stick up on her behalf.
And yes, you did try to ruin ohfour's birthday thread. All one has to do is read it to see it.

Well, considering this thread started as a way to thank me it kind of is about me. Everyone is mad that flan thanked me instead of Tig. So yeah, that makes it partly about me. I had no intentions of hurting Tigs feelings. In any way. So yes, I will apologize to her.

She didn't even mention you by name. But, the fact is that she would start a thread thanking ANYONE after refusing to even acknowledge her SS gift is beyond comprehension. It doesn't matter if it was you or anyone else.

So you weren't being nasty on ohfour's birthday thread when you said you were glad she was gone?
I did NOT say I was glad she was gone. I NEVER said that so don't put words into my mouth. I said I was tired of the bickering. Yes, I got tired of hearing the same people talk about killing Muslims all the time. I got tired of hearing a lot of nasty stuff. And it wasn't personal. I get tired of those who constantly partake in personal attacks. I'm sure you're now going to say I do it all the time.

You may not have said it in those exact words but it was clear. And the fact that you did it on her Birthday thread when she wasn't even there was a bit over the top, don't you think? You didn't have to say anything at all - you could have just NOT POSTED. And you do your fair share of contributing to the bickering so stop being a hypocrite.

I try my best to ignore Lily. Unless she talks to me directly I ignore her. It doesn't matter if I say the sky is blue Lily is offended by what I say. So I try not to say anything. Now, if you're asking me if I'm perfect and have never gotten into it? No, I am not. I have. But I work every day on trying NOT to fight. And I don't just go on threads where people are already fighting and join in. I avoid those at all costs.

Where did I play innocent? I admitted I sometimes take place in the fighting. I don't exactly think that's playing innocent. My statement is that I TRY MY BEST NOT TO. I mean now you know it's okay to pile on me so go right ahead. Say whatever you want about me. I honestly, at this point, truly don't care. I have a lot bigger things to worry about.

LL? You are being a little over the top here. SS was a month ago.
So? There a statute of limitations on rudeness? This thread is recent. And as ohfour said, she was hoping it was a SS thank you when she saw it. But, alas, too much to hope for.
And yes, it was a month ago, and there is STILL no reveal and thank you on the SS thread from flan. That's inexcusable.
