Civilized General Discussion, the NEW BLUE BOARD / New discussion thread for "grousing about" and letting off steam

**Posted by Ken C** 10/13/2023 3:24 pm

This post by greenman is disappointing. I'm about to delete it. I just wanted to post this showing why I thought the post should be deleted.

Also I don't like to criticize people without giving them a chance to reply and give their side of the argument. That's why I avoid using this forum to criticize people who don't post here.

Now she’s back posting politocally-based BS. Look at this disingenuous twaddle! No wonder she DNRd me, because I’d have called her on it..

Question

Posted by observer on October 13, 2023, 12:27 pm

In view of all the unrest in the world today, I’m wondering if it is legal for foreigners to lead protests in our country. I am NOT suggesting that it is happening. I just wonder what the legal
reality is.

‘I’m NOT suggesting that it is happening…’

Yes you are.

Observer is blind about religion. She has an entire lumber company in her eyes. All she sees is her own. very narrow view. She is rational, reasonable, pleasant and intelligent until she discusses religion.

**Posted by Siagiah** 10/13/2023 6:46 pm

Well, she DNR'd me too. I have NO CLUE WHY though. I've never done ANYTHING to her aside of disagreeing.

SHE is an extremely arrogant, self-absorbed person who cannot STAND it if someone gets the best of her in a disagreement. I wasn't nasty to her, I simply challenged the bitch. (that's what I think of her now). There is absolutely NO REASON for her asking for a DNR against me.

I've NEVER mistreated her before, only challenged her and given back a little the stinky snark that she constantly dishes out to me. She constantly insulted me with her holier-than-though, phony Christian commentary. Yet, I never DNR'd her in spite of her being the most arrogant, pathetic excuse for a Christian that I've ever encountered.

I've even stuck up for her multiple times when Mike Scalese and KR have been unnecessarily nasty to her. I'll never do that again. In fact, I may apologize to both of them for it. She CLEARLY deserves the CRAP she gets from them.

I didn't consider her an enemy before... NOW I DO.

Sure, greenman went a bit overboard with his response, but c'mon, borntofarm was begging for a negative response to his remarks to greenman. It wasn't nice of him either and he DELIBERATELY PROVOKED greenman, knowing exactly what kind of response he'd get. Then he played the victim card, his usual M.O.

**Posted by greenman** 10/13/2023 9:14 pm

I’ll admit I don’t like Born to Farm, a phony who attacked me personally when I said NOTHING to him, simply expressed my view (not profane) of DNR.

Are personal attacks legal, Ken, and left up if you disapprove of the reply?

Sorry about the ‘SOB,’ but you need to pay some attention to your other posters’ behavior.

FTR, when she first arrived, she was different than now. She declined and deteriorated. I am uncertain whether her religious views poisoned her mind, or perhaps a poisoned mind warped her religious views. Don't care. Not sure what's going on there, but it's a matter for her psychoanalyst who is neither you or me. It's a very short walk from religious fanaticism to insanity. Bauer is a poster child, and sadly Observer is moving that way. Maybe they can get a room.

**Posted by Siagiah** 10/13/2023 11:54 pm

Shadow/Sophia/Observer is one of the long time posters there. She is like she's always been from way back. I think you've forgotten how terrible she was to you before changing her name.

No, I did not forget. But when she had the falling out with CPD, she softened a lot, and we had a reconciliation and period of illuminative common interest discussions. But lately, she sank back into that pit, and I expect her to DNR me at some point too. IMO the DNR applies to people who stalk and target. Use of it to prevent discussion with somebody who simply disagrees with you is abusive, and that's where she is now.

**Posted by Siagiah** 10/14/2023 12:45 pm

Yep, that's precisely where she is. Her venom, barely disguised behind her southern style syrup way of saying it, is every bit as bad as what she objects to being said to or about her, if not worse because she DELIGHTS in the idea of those who disagree spending eternity in hell.

She is as PHONY as it gets and a crappy representative of her religious beliefs.

She clearly thinks she is special and can say or do whatever she pleases without ramifications. She claims that those who disagree speak for her favorite foil, satan, while she supposedly speaks for her god. Pity the gods that be that SHE forcefully tries to represent them regardless of how OPPOSITE her behavior is.

Anyone who doesn't reflect her personal belief system and too high opinion of herself she treats as beneath contempt. She is more focused on what she sees as polite-ish speech being SO IMPORTANT than on its content, so dismisses anything NOT "polite" so she need never see herself as the rest of us see her.

She is an ancient crone with ancient ideas and a prima dona attitude she thinks she is entitled to.

If there is a God, pity her reaction when SHE is rejected as doing the devil's work
And turning off potential believers with her gawd-awful pretentiousness!

**Posted by greenman** 10/14/2023 2:16 pm

She’s over there right now pushing the Trump line on Hamas and Israel. If course to her it’s about the fictional ‘End Times,’ so it’s all about getting Jesus back..

Jesus would take ONE LOOK at what passes for his flock and he'd turn back and close heaven's gates.

**Posted by greenman** 10/15/2023 8:50 am

I don’t doubt it. Or as Kris Kristofferson sang:

‘Jesus was a Capricorn, he ate organic foods
He believed in love and peace and never wore no shoes
Long hair, beard and sandles and a funky bunch of friends
Reckon they'd just nail him up, if he come down again..’

Gustav/Mike Scalese attacked Mugwump as MugWIMP. Greenman didn't say ANYTHING worse than that, so why isn't what Mike/Gustav said being called abusive?

I removed that post. I wish I had seen it sooner. I wish someone had emailed me about it. That's unacceptable and degrades the whole forum.

The name was misspelled by only one letter, I wear glasses. Sorry I did not notice it sooner.

My email address is right at the top of the forum. Sometimes instead of emailing me to report abuse, people just post about it here. That's one of the reasons I check this forum. Checking this forum every day is much quicker than reading every post on R&E.

**Posted by Ken C** 10/16/2023 6:49 pm

Criticizing people who wear glasses is just as bad as criticizing other people who have other handicaps.

I always try to be fair, polite and honest. Once again I am the only member of this forum who is being attacked and criticized here. I need a break. Good bye.

I'm not attacking you. It was just easier to copy and paste here than to send it all via email and I knew you were looking in.

I wear glasses too. I certainly WASN'T attacking you for wearing them. I'm confused why you thought that??

It won’t happen because you are one of the clique who is protected by Ken and Trish.

**Posted by greenman** 10/16/2023 7:46 pm

Never mind. I’m done with that damfool board.

The drama, insults, poor moderation and abusive behavior by ‘favorites’ is childish and pathetic.

I’m done after asking a simple question and getting p!ssed on by Scalise with no posts being taken down.

Ken works a full time, stressful job. Last thing he wants to do on his own time is massive clean ups on aisles 1-32. Attacking or criticizing him on his board for rule enforcement is never a good idea. His email is atop the forum, and complaints should be sent there. That is his office. He is reasonable and dependable with response. Be patient. Let people like Scalese hang themselves with their own ropes, and be careful you're not accidentally caught in some coils when the body drops.

I just find the whole tenor of the board unpleasant. I think this is what Dancing Digits was saying when she left, although she’s been giving it another try since the Three Reprobates got times-out (well deserved, and Scalise needs to join them).

But there’s just a lot of hostility, name-calling, and attacking going on there and while I have participated at times, I’ve let a lot of things go, too - believe me. I have tried to be reasonable, to criticize rather than insult (unless insulted).

I remember the board back in the day, and it was NEVER like that . And as I’m not adding anything much to it, why bother. Leaving my options open, but it’s been a big disappointment.

I did send them there. I was only pointing out that greenman is most certainly NOT the only one being unpleasant, Gustav was triggering most of it with HIS posts, that Ken hadn't noticed. It didn't seem at all fair for greenman's questionable posts to be here without Gustav's along with them. At the same time, I DID send them all to Ken directly in case he missed them here.

Apparently, he did miss many because several are still there on R&E.

I was NOT knocking him, just pointing out that there is more to the story. I'm also confused why he thinks that HE is the only member being "criticized" here. He was criticizing greenman too.
