Since you closed the thread where your last comment was to analyze me....I had to start a new thread in order to reply to it, even tho I know it's existence here it probably going to be short-lived...

Here is what you said on that thread, and following will be my comments to your comments....fair enough????

No doubt you will read this, your psychology mandates that you obtain feedback from your comments. You cannot help it.

And we cannot but help to wonder about all of the whys that Bernadette has posed. There is little doubt that you are hurting inside, and for me, this is answer enough.

Peace to you, Rainbow - I truly mean it. I hope you can find it.

Bernadette, please understand that it is your vulnerability that caused Rainbow to be so relentless towards you. You were reflecting her own vulnerabilities, and all of the things she directed towards you were actually rooted in the way she feels about herself. It is textbook psychology.

I have seen your picture, you are an attractive woman, do not believe anything otherwise. I would hazard the guess that she is probably hyper-critical about anyone who she perceives to be more attractive, or more intelligent, or more anything ... than herself. See this and have sympathy for her ... if you can. She hurts even more than you do - if you can believe that.

You are a beautiful person, Bernadette - your thoughts and words show it, the company you keep shows it, and I can certainly feel it - even through all of that emotional darkness that surrounds you. Your light will eventually burn all of that stuff up!

All of that said, I am now going to officially close my first topic.

Yes, the Mighty Mysterious Ra is going to weild his awesome powers of Moderatorship, granted to him by the Regency of the Kingdom! (sorry, I just could not help it!)

Any thoughts concerning the original intent of this string are certainly welcome in a new one. As this topic will remain, links can always be made to it for reference. Fair enough?

Rainbow...no doubt you will read this

You got that right Bud, but not for the reasons you suggested (in your infinite wisdom)....it's just that I want the last word...plain and simple...don't try and make it "mysterious" and "complicated."

.....there is little doubt that you are hurting inside...

Ho ho ho.....are you kidding? You're giving me a lot more cedit than I deserve if you think I can be hurt by a bunch of cyber entities(who even if they were real), are contained in a little box, and can be let in or out of it, at my whim!...

Bernadette, please understand that it is your vulnerability that caused Rainbow to be so relentless towards you. You were reflecting her own vulnerabilities, and all of the things she directed towards you were actually rooted in the way she feels about herself. It is textbook psychology.

Ho ho ho again....Bernadette is NOT vulnerable, nor am I...so...we do not share that trait...nor any others...and I'm wondering just what it is, that you find vulnerable about Bernzie.

I have seen your picture, you are an attractive woman, do not believe anything otherwise. I would hazard the guess that she is probably hyper-critical about anyone who she perceives to be more attractive, or more intelligent, or more anything ... than herself. See this and have sympathy for her ... if you can. She hurts even more than you do - if you can believe that.

oh Ra.....this is soooo absurd! I'm laughing not hurting......sheese, lord knows I'm not a super beauty, nor super intelligent, so I'd wager that there a gazillion who are far more beautiful and far more intelligent than me out there in this big wide world, and I would never be critical of them on the merits of having beauty or intelligence. That would be totally stupid.

...but...and let me say it again....but...
you damn right I'm going to speak up when I see a scam!!!

.....and this last comment of yours is just killer..

Yes, the Mighty Mysterious Ra

(I just couldn't resist posting my image of you)

We're a laugh a minute, huh, Ra?

That was a feeble attempt.

Your posts speak for themselves, I only wish you could see it - everyone else does.

Now that you have said your peace, please, let it go.

"I only wish you could see it. Everybody else does."

For your information, Ra....everybody else doesn't! I know that for a fact.... Sorry to rain on your parade....

Luv,

Okay, Rainbow, I'm sorry but anyone that still thinks I am "Ace" after all this time is either ultra-paranoid, fooled by your unfounded and unsubstanciated rantings, or enjoys soap operas to real life. Or perhaps they just need their intuition and psychic antenaes cleaned up.

I'm sorry, Ra, I'll try not to respond to anymore of these. It's difficult not to. It's all so silly. I've even offered to meet people in LA on this board to make Rainbow feel better and I'm sure once that happens she'll make up some other rediculous tale about me anyway.

Hello. My name is Freedom and I am new to the site, and I also don't mind telling everyone that I am a friend of Rainbow's.

I for one, stand behind her. I've known her long enough to know that she is not one to come into a place and cause trouble.

And because I am new does not mean, that I am not familiar with this site. I've been coming here for awhile now, reading posts on different forums and am familiar with much of it. At Rainbow's coaxing I finally decided to register and be part of a group who is dedicated to Linda Goodman and her writings.

That is why I came. But since I am here, I will not stand by and see my very good friend whom I know to be a good person be cut to ribbons. She does not deserve it. It's just like she said, not EVERYBODY can see it. I for one....do not!!!

So Ra, there are many other forums to visit here and I'm going to do just that, because I feel being a friend of Rainbow's, and a friend who is also standing behind her I'm probably not on your list of people who is exactly welcome here.

Thank you for letting me say my piece.

Love and peace,
Freedom

WHOA!!! Back up the trolley here, people.

Rainbow, oh brother! I witnessed the stuff that happened, what 3,4 weeeks ago and felt it undeserved, the vibe that was thrown your way. Now, because of that, I see a difference in you that is, well just different.

I'm going to go out on a big limb here-----

Rainbow Goat with a sensitive and watery moon-HEY! Please learn how to use your defenses WHERE they are needed. I wanted to e-mail you privately some weeks ago, but you have made yourself unreachable. WHY? I would have liked to save you from some considerable pain and conflict.

Well, one thing I'm certain of. Amber is Amber,Bernadette is Bernadette,no other. And definitely not that ace person. The whole VIBE is COMPLETELY different, right down to syntax.

Ra was decent with you, even attempted to downplay it with humor. Plain and simple.

Rainbow, please I strongly urge you to e me privately. Don't be a scapegoat for someone elses evil-hoodoo, and we know who that someone is and it's not who you think. You'd be surprised.

Peace out

All are welcome. I have no "list of people."

If I am wrong, I apologize. I am certainly not beyond being deceived.

Personally, I do not care who claims to be whom, and deceit only comes back to haunt the deceiver. I deal with whatever personality comes along individually, and it makes no difference to me what goes on behind the scenes. I have interpreted dreams that I know were not authentic - that is fine. And I have even corresponded with different personalities of the same person - that is fine too. Karma is the Master in these activities, and to this I leave all judgement.

Freedom, since I have let my displeasure about this situation known, I think I should also let it be known that I agree with you about Rainbow not being the kind of person to cause trouble. She IS usually a gentle, fun soul whose posts perk me up (not the last few).
The problem is not her believing what she believes, it is the forceful way she believes EVERYONE must believe. Even if she is right, it wouldn't matter to me, because in trying to protect us from negativity, she has steeped us in it.
We appreciate her being concerned for us, but this has gone on way too long, too many accusations have been made and too many people have been hurt.
I would be lying if I didn't say that her recent behaviour has been terribly frustrating to me, (and I wasn't even under attack) - there are days when I haven't even signed in (very unusual for me) because all her accusations and mean comments would depress the hell out of me.

Anyway getting back to the point, I wanted to say that I know this is uncharacteristic and the good ole' Rainbow, I DO respect. TRULY! I KNOW you are not a vicious person, Rainbow!

Argonaut, I think it is unfair to say that Rainbow was thrown a negative vibe from the beginning. This has been going on for way over 3 weeks and in the beginning these 3 girls were fending off all attacks single handedly. It was only when things got out of hand that people starting to speak up for them. Personally, I only butted in when something ridiculous was said about someone's physical appearance. I think that's out of line. (I'm Leo, you see? )

Rainbow, in your crusade, you have acted like the very person you tried to warn us against. You seem to be very amicable with Amanda at Greg's. We expect the same respect for others here that you show there.

...And it harm none, do what you will.

This is to everyone! (I'm sure most of you know it already)

People should really think about what they say. Words(sword) can cut to the heart faster than an action and do more damage than can possibly be seen in the physical.

We have a higher purpose!!!!!!!!

Isn't the whole idea to learn to love unconditionally?

It doesn't matter who said or did what. Only children try to blame someone else. (Belive me, I still fall into that trap) We are supposed to take responsibility for our own actions or inactions.

Even if someone does do or say something to harm you and you can't get past it, just say the words "I forgive you for eveything you have ever done to me in the past, present, and future", and then move on! Take responsiblility for the fact that in another life you might have hurt them the same way.

Aquamoon - something slipped my mind in your response in the locked string - me, your "elder?"

Would you think any less of me if I told you I just turned "17" ?!!

Ra - perhaps you just left off the zero's so as not to make the rest of us feel lesser somehow. So...did you really mean 1700?
