Thanks future. Exactly!
Kindergarden indeed DD. & yes, just sometimes.

Also, I agree, not nice when people get spiteful.

Yes, if only we could all see ourselves right now.

Stop being personal please and just enjoy the interaction here on LL.

My main dominating sign is Virgo.

Hmmmm.... I'm thinking you have a touch of Virgo, too!

posted November 04, 2009 06:08 AM         

but you worked it out by being kind of analytical about it, sussing out what people are doing, and then what it is 'defended' as. but then looking at it in reality kind of.

am i right?

yes i have virgo in my chart, mars & mercury in virgo (mars in the 2nd, mercury in the 3rd)

i love to be analytical about things

That's what I love about Virgo and how she can bring a clear cut definitive to a situation.

No game playing, no time wasted

I pointed out a series of behaviour that linked together.

I have wanted to leave because of this attitude.

I've wanted to leave over a number of things in the past koi. We all have our issues and sometimes people want to leave over the silliest reasons. In life and online, you arent going to like everyone you meet. Nobody can please them all. You don't like me or what you want to say is my attitude? That's fine, koi. If you can't get over it, try to at least leave me alone and not quote me constantly, allow me to speak my mind and I'll try to do the same for you.

But if you want to continue to direct remarks like this at me, it's only going to fly for so long:

My sensitivities to others being potentially hurt expand into cyberland. Oh well, that's the drawback of being human.

Yes, that's a warning. I'm not going to deal with this kind of immature bullying nasty BS. I don't stoop to and and wont take it from others. Leave me alone.

Thanks.

I don't know who you think you are.

Well said, future and T.

T,

Your Virgo Moon seeks some
kind of purity for Lindaland.
I can understand that.

Its a shame what's happened
to this place.

Who do i think I am? A human being just like you. No more, no less. Who spoke up about something that bruised some egos, and piissed of some clique members, which I knew it would. The situation resolved itself rather quickly and I thought everyone was happy and getting back on with things. You still get your Godzala threads and we can go on not really connecting or communicating with each other on threads again, just like before.

If you were to read this thread over again, and especially focus on what future wrote - while maybe putting yourself in my shoes, you might be able to see things differently. That depends on how well you can stretch your imagination and understanding.

Also, if you read my post in the tone it was written, you might see things differently too. When I said "Yes, if only we could all see ourselves right now." it was in more of a wistful tone i guess you could say. Not sarcastic like you may have read it. I can see where people misread the tone of my posts often and think they are coming off angry when in fact they arent. Maybe just passionate and/or detatched.

I'm not a rude person koiflower, but you are free to think however you want of me. Just please dont follow me around taking jabs at me okay? It's really immature. It's really the last thing I need too. I wont be doing that to you, so I'd appreciate the same courtesy.

To those who complain about the change: WHAT exactly did change? What was better before? And before what? When did the decline start in your opinion?

these are good and fair question, DD

i think daf was the first to issue a serious warning. a good deal of discussion followed, but i'd say 90% of the board didn't agree with his concerns. daf was a little .... dramatic? possibly it was more the messenger than the message that some took issue with. I think that happened in 2005.

it's all to easy to look back at the past with rose coloured glasses, but people come and go, and flavours change, it's life.

anyone who wants to improve the tone or spirit of a place does best starting with themselves.

and NONE of the above is in any way aimed at any individual person!

I thought it was something like this.

Shura,

I don`t know anything about this other incident, since I only joined in summer of 2006.
But it was intersting to hear.
