Sweet Blue Moon got ganged-up on. I'll probably get it for "jumping in" - after all, I haven't been a regular poster, and -who am I? I don't know all of the details, and Pixie is okay with me. But, Sweet Blue Moon, I am a far cry from perfect. I certainly will be responding to your posts that touch my personal life and opinions. Maybe you got your feelings hurt somewhere in LG. I am sure that all of these tolerant people here will cut you a break and let you start with a clean slate. We are all different, yet all the same. KEY IP: Logged |

Hi Pixie and friends I am sorry to read what is going on here, and forgive me for being thick, but did I read correctly that this person Sweet Blue Moon is the same one as Mystic Dreamz - do you know what guys I wouldnt even bother to spend the energy here and is there anything I can do to prevent this person being so offensive in future. Would anyone bring it to the attention of Randall, or I could if you want - seems such a pity when this is such a helpful place to be. And Pixie - you are one of the most HELPFUL and insightful people I met and your wisdom has certainly helped me. What a shame that people are threatened by your intelligence. And she should be so lucky to have you even reply to her threads. Can I suggest guys that NO-ONE replies to these childish and ridiculous comments because I feel to feed them wouldnt be doing anyone any favours with love Sue xxxIP: Logged |

I feel you are not completely aware of what happened with AM/MD/SBM key. I think you need to look up the threads where she used offensive language when it was not called for and needlessly derided the best people on this forum. Its amazing how the most helpful, knowledgeable and benevolent people on this board are the ones she gets the most angry and abusive with ... people like Pidaua, Pixie and others - not exactly good judgement dont you think?IP: Logged |

SBM -I really wanted to stay out of this. I'm inclined to think its just not worth it. Trading all this negativity, where does it get us? Of course, I want to stick up for my friends, but, I know that, if I open my mouth in their defense, I'm likely to say something perhaps too hurtful to you. And I dont like hurting people. You claim to find justifications for all your cruel remarks, and, perhaps, to you they make sense. I have tried to see things from your point of view, but, by now, I'm convinced you dont even have one, because your eyes are closed. hsc IP: Logged |

Well said HSC but I still think it is important to speak out for the one who is being abused, if not, it will just keep happening. I am sure you are a very well-meaning and loving guy, but sometimes, I feel, it is appropriate to speak out (as drummed into me by a fearless loving Aries father) - love and hugs to ya xxxIP: Logged |

Lovely sentiment Key- I admire your integrity, but you know the woman she was offensive to is a SCORPIO and you know how we are, and to be honest and not too sound mean, I personally think this person has had many many chances to behave in a rational way and appears not to have used them in a mature and reasonable way - love sue xxx p.s. perhaps I need to be more tolerant - what do you think???IP: Logged |

Hi Sue -I am also a fearless aires sun/moon/mars. I say - forgive and forget. Sweet Blue Moon is alone and cornered. I haven't read all of the threads, but I have no doubt that many inappropriate comments were made by Sweet Blue Moon. By the way, do we have to paint a scarlet "A" on someone and ignore them and banish them? That is just mean. Try again, Sweet Blue Moon. That is how we all learn. I still remember when my son kept fooling around and not following directions - in 3rd grade chorus. The chorus director said - "I will not kick him out. He will never learn if he is not allowed to participate, interact, and to practice". Same is true here. Are we so insecure that we cannot handle some negative posts? Try again, Sweet Blue Moon.

Hi Sue -Didn't get to see your last post - before I posted. Actually, of all the signs I most admire - it would be Scorpio. The Scorps in my life are very kind. You seem just fine to me. I quess - I am way past high school, and all of the - don't speak to this one or to that one - never really liked that exclusion stuff. always has rubbed me the wrong way. Guess I am too old to be hanging out here? KEY IP: Logged |

Hey Key, you sound so reasonable and forgiving, maybe I could learn a thing or two from you, but I just happen to disagree, but am working on being more tolerant. My son who is only 6yrs is being bullied at school and everyone is so taken up with protecting the abuser that all the kind sensitive kids are getting the life kicked out of em. I happen to believe that we need to speak out against abusive behaviour. Have your read the threads key where this girl totally rips into others, I was feeling sick when I read it, if you like I will try and find it for you, its very hard to read, the language harsh, the sentiment cruel. I agree we need to challenge each other, like we are doing now, but as for foul language and out of control anger, nah I dont buy that at all. I suppose there is just a balance here and like I said I admire your integrity, thanks be to the universe that we are not all the same - love to you xx IP: Logged |

Of course youre not too old Key - we NEED people like you to balance things out and guess what, I am 46 (ha ha), and just really think it is important to protect ourselves from abuse and foul language on line, thats all.

Well, Sue -Thanks for your response. I have had many years to work on forgiving. To be very honest - no one messes with my kids or animals - or those who are defenseless. Yes, if my son - at age 6 - were being bullied - there would be all hell to pay from me. It is true that I have not read all of the threads involved. I do not want to read them, either. I just know that people can change and grow, if given the opportunity. Also, you cannot take PERSONALLY any comments that are hurtful - if these comments are made - "across the board". I am very grateful to people who given many many many chances to a couple of screw-up people in my personal life. KEY IP: Logged |

Wow. This has certainly ballooned since I turned my computer off. I am happy to see that it hasn't denegrated and turned into a bashing thread for anyone. I appreciate the kind posts, the centred posts. In terms of forgiving and forgetting.. I have maintained from the beginning.. I will 'leave her alone' as long as she plays nice. In fact I have. When she thinks I am atacking her, as in the case with something she posted to Pidaua, I was responding.. not attacking. She told Pid to eff off. Then said 'where's your 'we' no one seems to be here to say anything'.. well, I was there, so I responded. (The sixth house thread started by St.Henri) That was not me outing her or responding to a post she started. It was me responding to something nasty she said. Scorpio or not... ( I suppose Astrology should come into this discussion in order to justify it being here) I don't attack. She is sensitive toward me because I discovered who she is. But.. even then, I told her I knew who she was, and if she played nice, I would leave her alone. For whatever reason she wants to play in this playground, and it is a big place, filled with a lot of great people to play with. But the minute she starts anything... I will call her on it. Not because I 'stalk' her.. ( how could I do that?) But because I don't like negatives flooding and misrepresenting this playground.Whatever,I can't seem to express myself. Thank you for not ganging up on me due to her sensitivity toward my presence here. IP: Logged |

Key,I am so in love with your philosophy of tolerance and inclusivity, and I have debated these problems extensively with myself (Aqua Moon, Venus/Uranus/Sun). But I want to point something out which you may not have considered, perhaps because you yourself are relatively invulnerable to attack. "Are we so insecure that we cannot handle some negative posts? ... Yes, if my son - at age 6 - were being bullied - there would be all hell to pay from me." There is a 6 year old inside all of us, Key. hsc IP: Logged |

Danny, I don't think you are crap either.Apparently that doesn't mean anything to you though. Maybe I can develop some tough skin to go along with the outer shell. "Scorpios sting, geminis lash out." For the record... I didn't sting. IP: Logged |

HSC and Key ... I agree with both of you. You are right, its not fair to be judgemental and everyone deserves another chance.At the same time, I believe in standing up for the ideals you believe in and the people you hold close. I dont know if you are reading this SBM, but I am sorry for losing my temper earlier. I shouldnt have, you have said nothing against me and I am out of place to oppose you. Its jus the people you denigrated are very special to me ... even if I have not met them or might never meet them, they have helped me through a lot of tough times and have stood by me. They really understand me and have rewarded me with what I hope will be lasting friendships. And I am very human, if I feel a threat to the people I love and the ideals of love and friendship I hold close being challenged, it will make me angry and make me shoot off that Mars in Aries. I hope you are able to come back and be a part of this amazingly loving and forgiving family and learn as much from us as we hope to learn from you. Love and light Maya IP: Logged |

HSC -Yes, I can also be 6 years old. Just ask my husband. When I do not get eye contact and total focus when I am telling one of my stories or jokes - I am not particularly tolerant! We all want to be acknowledged, liked, listened to, and responded to. Many of us "act out" when we do not get this attention. Thanks, Sue. KEY IP: Logged |

Key, I liked your quote.... quote: I just know that people can change and grow, if given the opportunity.
but it seems to me some people are given many opportunities and slam the door on them. I find myself wondering what in SBM/Atlantic Myst/Mystic Dreamz chart (or life experiences) made her so bitter and paranoid at such a young age. I would be willing to listen to an explanation of why the negative attitude is almost always in the drivers' seat....IP: Logged |
