I'm starting to feel bad now because maybe TP was using marcia's screen name recently because she was banned.***

I seriously want to be 'normal'...
Like , a knowflake.
I HATE being misrepresented, even my people who are foolish ( okay, person) So If that 'special badge' was taken away, then more (less)power to me.
I won't have status to exploit.
I won't be a fall guyy for someone who doesn't understand that you are what you bring to the table.
If you act like a jackass, you'll be quickly found out.
Bottom line.
No one can be blamed for that.
I am tired of being the fall guy.
I am a goofball lunatic who has fun here and talks about astrology.
I'm no moderator.

Randall,
This is to let you know that I am sorry, I feel like I have indirectly caused problems in LL and that is the last thing I wanted to do.
I feel that TP was banned because of me, because of her trying to do right by defending me, but doing wrong by the way she went aboyut doing it.
When she got banned she became very hurt and she wanted me to post for her. I allowed her to use my "marcia" screen name, so that she would be able to not cause trouble, but express her feelings.
So, I can't lie to you. It isn't me posting under that name. You have to know that.
But please only keep it between you and I.


Marcia

why would you continue to keep your old user name "marcia" and continue to use it occasionally? but when you do use "marcia", you seldom let others in on it unless they ask you.

i think you owe some people an explanation and then maybe you can put it behind you.

From Randall:

Which racist comment? If you mean the pot calling the kettle black, that is not IMHO racist. Omarosa on The Apprentice tried to make that link also, and it just isn't a clear connection.

---

You are the pot calling the kettle black when you point to another person and accuse that person of doing something that you are guilty of doing yourself. Example: "You are accusing me of being lazy? Ha! That's the pot calling the kettle black!"

"The pot" (for cooking) and "the kettle" (for boiling water) sit on the stove over the fire and become black from the flames. Example: "I'm tired of you always wearing my clothing!" Answer: "Aren't you the pot calling the kettle black? You're wearing my pants right now!"

The pot and the kettle are like old friends who have turned black with time; the pot only sees the blackness which is on the kettle; he doesn't see the black on himself. Example: "Here comes the guy who is always late for work." Answer: "Aren't you the pot calling the kettle black? You are usually the last person to show up!"

PART of this entire flap is a misunderstanding of English idioms.

But maybe this is just a personality clash - simple as that, really.

I also have a strong feeling there is some game-playing going on here...and a lot of BS being thrown around.

Cheers,

If friend number one, who we'll call TP uses your account (with your permission) to degrade another friend of yours (ohhhh, let's call her PP) don't you feel that TP violated your friendship at all?

I would be seriously ticked!

Friend number two... how awful for you to have had to deal with this!

Leoelf... you didn't deserve what TP did to you.

Are u freaking kidding me? Smalles things. You do not even know the whole story aries tiger. so mind your business perra.

And futue Uncertain. Don't talk to me. You have nothing to do with this. Keep it moving. And when I ridicule....it's because they were being rude to me. So quit it with the ridiculing everyone. It's only a couple of these *******.

So easy for you people to accuse about this person doing this and that person doing that. Take a look at yourselves also.

And quit with this damn thread already. So freakin annoying.

Grow up.

You see pidua bringing up the threads over and over again. What are you gonna do? Let me guess...nothing huh?

Let me address You now.. Jennifer, MD/SU/TP etc etc....

Stop making me the fall guy.
I have not banned you. EVER.
Each time you were banned when your heated words caught up with you.
We all feel things. Your anger simmers close to the surface, and believe me, it's not something you can hide.
If you look back at all the offending posts, all the interaction, you will see it has not been ME.
Stop blaming and take responsibility for your own actions.
It's the ONLY way to get over the fog.

DD, I completely understand your repulsion to the drama.. but PLEASE understand MY point. I was called a RACIST and that highly offends me. I WILL NOT allow someone to soil my name and reputation especially when it is OFF the forums I frequent. I am more than happy that we have someone here like Randall that can see through the lies and BS..

I ABHOR liars - I HATE them with a passion because they not only betray the truth they steal something from you- TRUSTS. It is their nature to cause hurt and pain, to ruin what is good and FOR WHAT? This?

Like Pixie, this won't EVER keep me from LindaLand - this is just another phase that we have to endure. Never in my internet life have I encountered people as unstable (or maybe it is just one person) as the current TP / Leoelf / Marcia / Sweet Utopia..etc..

How sick is it to keep posting where you are NOT wanted - where you have been continuously banned? DO you KNOW how hard it is to get banned here? Almost ALL of our moderators are HUGE proponents of free speech. You really have to make a huge a$$ of yourself and highly offend people to get banned.

Maybe this happened days ago - but I just found out since I was out of town at a FUNERAL - so yeah, this IS important to me.

Marcia / Leoelf..or whoever you are today -

I do not accept your apology, which is very hard for me to say as I normally get over things quickly. What you did was cross the line and allow someone to use your username to post lies. I don't even trust that you are an individual person apart from TP / AM / MD / Sweet Utopia..etc... Obviously your friend (or you) has been able to post under numerous names without your help, so you giving her your password just puts you in her category.

I have always admired you and I know for a fact that you would never try to hurt anyone. I thought the way you diffused the situation in the "who's your favorite" thread was brilliant.

It seems that we had just been caught up in someone's trap of deceit. Sadly enough, that trap has only caused bickering and in some cases, people leaving. I can only think that things happen for a reason. I am saddened though that people would find sport in trying to cause ruin in a community such as this where despite our differences, we all work together and try to help each other.

I commend you on the fact that through most of this you have kept a level head and even tried to help out TP (or whoever she is today) on her astro questions. I think it is even more disappointing that she had a few great astrology points to offer, yet threw it all away with her temper / harsh offensive words.

I understand you not taking sides. I know that quietly you are right there (just like I am for you). But it's true, after you have been here for so long - like us- to back that person up for every little things makes it look like we are playing favorites.

I think people here also need to understand that only ONE person has the power to ban and that is Randall. He doesn't do it indiscriminantly, but with careful evaluation. That is evident because there have only been a handful of people that I have ever seen banned here in 3 years.

This will pass.. .LOL....

Lots of love to you Pixie..
