Wow.. funny enough, I was being nice.
I was trying to say just because your friend said they supported someone else, doesn't mean they didn't support you too.I have no desire to argue semantics with you so I will wish you *calm* and well and carry on about my quest to induce labour. *edited*
You're Welcome, heart shaped steve.

Heart Shape Cross and Leila or Lotus would be good here.

So Silverstone voted for you by NAME "Lotus"
and then as part of the "All".
Yet you go and say this to him:

Well, I guess,
if people are requesting me,
maybe I should do it?
But I feel like I stepped in the middle of something.
I don't know why Lotus is being ignored.

Wow.. funny enough, I was being nice.
I was trying to say just because your friend said they supported someone else, doesn't mean they didn't support you too.
Lotus.....I was planning to nominate you for
"The Oober Galaxy"
Should there be an opening for a moderator there.
You went off at me for editing my posts at LM......I was being nice to You at Lexigram Magic, but because I added pictures and fixed typos..and rephrased a few things...I unintentionally offended you....I then posted the original and the revision version to please YOU....and apologized to you and Mirandee for any unintended confusion.
Yet you still berated me repeatedly for using an option that is not against any rule but your own person choice not to use it....but rarely. (you forget..you did use it before when you were angry with me and Magus) But no matter your opinion of the edit function, the edit option is there. On some forums it is not. It is my right to use it. It is your right to not use it much...and you have used it before. Sorry if using it offends you. But this is an example of perhaps why you were not chosen to be a Mod. If you cannot be tolerant of others, especially when they are NOT breaking any rule here at LL......like using the edit option.....or having a different opinion or believe in their own way, not your way........
How can you be tolerant of other things they do that you "personally" but not rule wise do not agree with?
And being hurt because you did not get the moderator position is no reason to be unkind and rude to HSC, Silverstone, Pixie, Randall or anyone else.
I would LOVE to moderate at Lexigram Magic and Universal Codes! I was nominated for FFA...but I did not get it.
Lotus you were nominated! So I did not get Mod Job! So you did not get a Mod job! SO WHAT!
That is no reason to lash out at everyone. 
quote:
it's obvious I have no friends or supporters...not that matters, I have GOD,
I stuck up for you because you were implicated in my being driven out of LL last Fall. Despite all the times you were cruel to me and attacked my friends....I saw that you were being unfairly implicated in my leaving so in spite of the fact that I knew I would get flack for defending you....I defended you because it was not true. And yes...I have indeed received flack for defending you. Away from LL Some folks are indeed very confused and upset and some even outright angry at me for doing so.
I could have saved myself a whole lot of grief by just staying away from Lindaland as I had been doing for nearly 1/2 a YEAR!
Yet you still say you have no friends or supporters?
You do not support my right to use a function available here at LL.
You did not notice that Silverstone nominated you for Mod. You did not notice that HSC was said you felt sad and overlooked. You seem to overlook all my attempts to be nice to you and try to work with you again too.
I have been very forgiving of You Lotus.
I am taking flack for coming out of a almost 1/2 year seclusion to defend your being implicated in my being driven out of LL.
This post is in no way meant to be a degrading of your character.
But your replies have been most unfair.
And how do you expect to be given a Mod job with this attitude:

I tried last night to point out that Tolerance is The Key. I tried to point out that we are all growing and learning even though we each are on a different path. I tried Lotus.

Growing up I was ignored or ridiculed and passed over for things many many times.
Yes It hurts.
But we cannot keep holding on to those hurts.
Maybe like me you went through some of the same while growing up.
I was overlooked by teachers because they sat students in alphabetical order.
So I got shoved in the very back.
No one knew I could not see the blackboard.
No one picked me for baseball because I was a fat kid suffering from precocius puberty at 8 years old. I was to the other kids I was a fat freak with D-cup boobs who stuttered. Yet I was not fat...I just happened to be an odd duck who looked 15 when I was 8 years old! With giganticamatstica too boot!
Later when my legally blind condition was discovered I was then the freak with 3/4 inch thick glasses!
My initials wereBFW.
Well that sure gave them all a bit of a jolly old grand time making further fun of me! BFW became...instead of my name initials...
It became to the hecklers...
BIG FAT WEIRDO!
Then worse things as time went on such as:
B!tch Freak Wh0re....,from guys who couldn't get into my pants, or grab my over large bosum.
So there I was being finally looked at because of big boobs...sexually not for me, who I am inside!
Not the attention I wanted.
It did not help either that I am a hunchback
and because of a genetic defect can grow manly facial hair that a 16 year old guy would envy!
I wasmuch stronger than most men. Yet was overlooked for things because I am a female(despite the ability to be bewhiskered).
I was overlooked because of my looks and stuttering and put into the retarded class.
I was judged and put aside.
One day a wonderful new teacher came! He took a shine to me. He had birth defects and suffered from Marfan's Syndrome(causes a person to be a giant, as in the circus freak variety to many folks)and realized there was more to me than met the eye.
I was ran through a battery of tests.
To the utter shock of everyone I had an IQ well above the level of Genius!
Surprised me too.
For so long others had convinced me I was an ugly stupid fat big boobed hunchbacked stuttering thick glasses wearing,five-o-clocked shadowed freakazoid!
Maybe you have had similar experiences and that is why you are so bitter about things and not being chosen.
But we cannot get chosen for all the things we want.
Later I was chosen! I was selected to help teach a Dale Carnegie course! I had the most horrible stage fright but after taking the course I recieved awards for overcoming my fears and awards for my willingness to try and help others, I was chosen to be a graduate assistant and teach!
If I had not later become severely injured, I would have continued teaching it!
Life has its ups and downs.
I tend to think of my past woes of not being chosen...in the light of..."wow!I sure was/am an unusual character!"
We do care about you Lotus, even though we at times get frustrated with you.
As you do with us.
I hope you think about all this.
I understand more than it seems you realize.
Good Luck to You Lotus.
May God truly Bless You.

Congratulations, HSC! I'm sure that with your poet's sensitivity and down-to-earth sensibility, you would make an excellent Moderator for this forum. Now if you would only post another poem of yours for us to feast on, that would be great as well!  Fayte.m, thank you for sharing from your heart about your own struggles and eventual success. I have been ignored many times in my life, too, but life goes on and there are other small victories to compensate for the big losses, so I don't give up hope. ------------------

Fayte,Have you ever thought about writing your memoirs? Every piece of your history I have had the honor to be privy to is mind-blowing, heart-wrenching, and inspirational. I just know you could help so many people, the way that wonderful teacher helped you. I admire you for many things, and this latest attempt to find a common ground with Lotus is no exception. Please, never be discouraged. Your words are reaching all of us, and even when we are too proud to regard them consciously, we still understand you on a deeper level. I see you trying so hard.
Love to you,

Lotus,Okay, I've been looking at your chart... Thank you again for sharing it with me.
I never intended to say anything about it,
because I don't feel competent to do that,
as an astrologer, or as a human being.
Now I feel like saying some things, but,
of course, I am barely scratching the surface,
and, even then, I may be off the mark. The first things I saw were the big blue lines, indicating the amazing trines in your chart. A close trine from Sun/Mars to Uranus/Pluto, Jupiter/Psyche trine Ascendant from the 9th house, Moon trine Chiron/Venus/Saturn. Powerful stuff! I remember reading about an experiment where horoscopes were cast for car accidents. There was a surpising amount of trines, and very few squares and oppositions. The hypothesis is that the energy was not "checked" by anything. No brakes. The only square in your chart is from Jupiter, so, that isnt slowing you down, lol. And the only oppositions are from Neptune to the Sun/Mars and North Node (both too wide to offer much resistance) and the Moon to the North Node. Since these are sensitive planets, I think its probable that you usually only "check yourself" when you feel utterly raw, and emotionally depleted (especially with those strong Martian energies; Sun/Mars, Mercury in Aries, and Venus at the True Aries Point). I've never seen a chart like this, and I doubt very many people can understand you, let alone relate to you. I think it is worth reflecting to yourself on the nature of Mars and Aries. People with these energies strong often make a lot of generalizations about people, based on their own personal experiences (i.e. "what is good for the Aries, is good for everybody"). One of my favorite philosophers, Arthur Schopenhauer, is notorious (to me, at least) for making sweeping statements about human nature, based on his own experiences. A quick glance at his chart explains why he would react in the ways he describes, but, knowing what I do about astrology and individuality, I'd say he had very little awareness of others' reactions, thoughts, and feelings. Those who disagreed with him, he was quick to dismiss as less intelligent, and, therefor, incapable of comprehending his genius. He made a lot of statements about the differences between geniuses and common people, most of which appear to be attempts to defend his own irrascible and unsociable nature (Venus in Aries square Mars in Cancer; Moon and Ascendant in Virgo, Sun in the 6th). I'm not saying you suffer from the same malady, but it is something to consider. Of course, the last thing Mars/Aries wants to do is consider. Mars says, "Do not bother me with petty matters like facts, figures, and the experiences of others; I am Mars, by God!!! If the whole world and all the laws of nature disagree with me, then nature and the world must be wrong!!! Damn them all to Hell!!!!" Except for the "hell" part, this is also common to hard aspects from Jupiter (like the exact square between your Venus in Aries, and Jupiter in Cancer - both on Aries Points). We all have maladies to deal with. This may be your biggest one. Again,
maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. Love to You,
HSC

You words are appreciated by me more than you may realize. I often feel like giving up. Some days I have to pull back and take a deep breath and re-center and calm myself before forging ahead again. Thank you so much for your kind words HSC. I have learned much from you also.

So, Sue G, I'm sorry, how things happened...
I have took a vacation from LL HELL....
you know, I asked for both threads
to be closed, and for everyOne to be
given a fresh start....
but no, my thread got closed...
and the other continued....
Anywho, I have forgiven all
and start over every day.... Randall, this was not fair to me

Lotus? What are you so angry at me for?
I defended "YOU" against the assumption some folks were having, thinking you drove me away from LL. I did not think it right for anyone to think that about You, because You did Not drive me away! Past?
Please explain. 
I thought that since my return to LL to defend you, because you were implicated in my leaving was a nice thing to do. I gave you "gifts" at Lexigram Magic and you became angry and judgmental...... I know you are angry and hurting because you were not made a moderator, but WHY are you taking it out on me? So exactly what "Past" did I bring up that made you so angry now at me? At no time since my return have I sought to anger or hurt you. I am sad you are hurting but please do not take it out on me. And as I told you in e-mail...I did not mind what Eleanore brought up.
I explained that.
But I did not think it right that Kamilla was under the impression you were the cause of my leaving. Though at the moment I must admit, this latest attitude towards me during my trial return here,
may indeed cause me to reconsider the wisdom of my being back.
