This is what prompted me to ban a member. No more speculation needed. No conspiracy theories needed. No assumptions or guessing needed. I was called predatory, which is libel, and everyone can read the entire thing for themselves. No, I'm not 50, not that it matters, and no NickiG isn't an impressionable young girl. I'm locking it. It is read-only. It's not to be used to dredge up any contention or debate. It's here just to show what started all of this. I take being called a predator very seriously. Here we go:Author Topic: Welcome, Little Baby Forum!

Good to see you.
Loving them tomatoes, no matter how they're pronounced. Good job on coming up with the forum idea!
Hope things are good with you.
Love it when the Aussies are online at the same time. I'm forever going to be complaining about the time differences. Aries problem. Likes the immediate communication. Something about waiting... whatever that is.
NickiG - ooh yeah!

Why has the new forum turned into a sleazy bar?
Serious question here^^ The opening line sucked me in.
quote:I think it fits very well with Linda, since she was sometimes depressed, contemplated suicide at least once, lost children (the baby druids that tumbled down the hill and fell ), learned in several ways about the Lost and Found (see Gooberz), experienced the transmigration of levitation while smelling sweet peas in the rain, the loping (her and Robert Brewer's chase to love-making), and was in a constant flux trying to understand the male psyche...and her own. I feel very good about the newest infant addition to Lindaland
Now after reading through the place, it seems like a 2 bit pick up joint. Bleh.

Your name makes you sound like the perfect person to be in a 2 bit pickup joint, no offense
Take a look around. I'm sure you've missed a few things.

The thread was between between my girlfriends & I & that has a whole different tone & you know it.
Now I was asking a serious question, if you don't have anything serious to add then take a hike.

I would add that not only would Linda Goodman's sexual descriptions in "Sun Signs" be considered scandalous to some, but the idea of Astrology was VERY taboo for many...
I'm surprised on an Astrology forum in the 21st century, 8th house subjects are still a very "bad" subjects!
In defense of the forum, we're all adults here, and to date... there has been only 1 pickup (not naming names, and they never met in real life!). Ha!

posted November 20, 2010 07:02 PM Click Here to See the Profile for PlutoSquared Edit/Delete Message Also, I have NOT forgotten how many sexual threads were flooding the astrology 2.0 not even a few weeks ago...
I guess the "condensed" version must be more intimidating, somehow.
Really though, the most respectful thing Randall did was create an adult forum where we COULD talk about taboo subjects and not feel like we were being intrusive to others...
Taboo subjects like: LOSS, DEATH, SEX, LOVE, DIVORCE, INFIDELITY, GENDER ISSUES, PREGNANCY, PROBLEMS OF ANY KIND...
This is NOT just a SEX forum.

posted November 20, 2010 07:10 PM Click Here to See the Profile for Unmoved Edit/Delete Message PlutoSquared - You obviously have the right to do or say whatever you wish, but it would be appreciated to exercise a bit of diplomacy and tact when dealing with people. Spanky_Butler was expressing an issue she had. To be totally brushed off without letting her know that her issue, even if you don't agree with it, was acknowledged, is inappropriate.
That too, is my opinion. Maybe I don't understand your tone and manner of approach. If that is so, I apologize sincerely. But, from where I stand, you're not being accommodating. Even if a complaint seems trivial to a Mod, it is our responsibility to listen with compassion. Maybe I take being a Mod too seriously. If so, I also apologize for the stick up my arse.

I am not opposed to those threads & as you've seen, some damn naughty things can & do come out of my mouth quite frequently.
What has sickened me is the blatant innuendo coming from a man almost 50 to a young impressionable girl.
I don't care what other people call it, I say it's predatory & makes me wanna hurl my breakfast.
Sorry for the misunderstanding ladies. I have no beef with you. Ami, take a chill pill sweetie, it's all good.

The thing about LL is that it is Randalls home, if you will.
He gives us LL as a gift. Most people have never even donated anything to him.
This is all his gift to US.
He allows us in as guests by his generousity.
It is not right to be in his home and complain about him in such a way
I would like you to erase it, Spanky,if you would so he would not have to see it.
I will erase my post ,too.
Ask your heart what is the right thing to do.
I trust you to do what feels right to you.

unregistered posted November 20, 2010 07:25 PM Edit/Delete Message Why do you mention Randall specifically Ami? I mentioned no names & post no links to infer him.
We have a differing opinion on my original question & that's cool Ami.
To each their own I guess.
PS as ps not PlutoSquared
I'll not apologize or remove my words. That implies that I have done something wrong & I haven't.
EFIT - As I understand it Randall created a public forum based on Linda Goodman & her principles and life's work. One of which was an open attitude to discussion.
I do have that right don't I?

posted November 20, 2010 07:27 PM Click Here to See the Profile for PlutoSquared Edit/Delete Message Unmoved,
I exercise quite a bit of restraint and tact. In fact, with most people, I treat them with a great deal of courtesy...
From my perspective, Spanky posted an extremely disrespectful question to this board...
I was thinking about the perspectives of the many other contributors here on the forum, that have been, with one comment, lumped into a category of a sleezy 2-bit pickup joint...
That was out of lines, in my opinion. Thankfully, Spanky just clarified exactly WHY he posted the way he did. I can now see what exactly he was "trying" to communicate.
Had he not clarified, I would have seen that as a general disrespect to EVERYONE on "Sweet Peas In The Rain".
And, fyi, I do take the mod position seriously.

posted November 20, 2010 07:31 PM Click Here to See the Profile for Ami Anne Edit/Delete Message Well, Spanky, I just feel that Randall gives us a great gift.
He is in charge of his home. It is not right for us to come in and insult him .
I mean that with utmost respect to YOU which I have.
I feel strongly about what I said, though .
It is not our place to tell Randall how to operate his own home.
I feel that is wrong
Also, an age difference does not equate predatory,IMO.
It is about the hearts of the two people and most especially the integrity of the two people.
These two people have the highest of both, IMO

I'm keeping things general for everyone so maybe we should stop mentioning his name?
You obviously didn't see what I saw or maybe you just see it differently.
PS - While Randall is the owner & operator, it's not his personal home. He created a public forum.
Perhaps my words were not genteel enough but I shoot from the hip sometimes. Should I censor my self expression?
I didn't swear, I simply used words to express how something made me feel.

No offense to Unmoved, but Spanky made the first derogatory comment to PS. And if anyone has a problem with this Forum, then like Global Unity, simply don't post here.
