I understand and you most certainly do have a right to carry on. But I think you should forfeit that right because I get the feeling this topic is not good for your health. You have to put your health first.

Drop it and just forget it. Let people accuse you. Who cares? I don't give a rat's ass when people accuse me. It rolls off like water on a duck.

Quack.

:lol:

LOL!! I love you, Paul. You’re a good friend.

Hey JP! :smile:

Tough few days for you here - I feel for you.

You need not do any of this. You are not obligated to do it and it isn't wise to continue.

Lemmie is no more important and/or special than you are as a member of this community. She should not be commanding and/or given any special treatment and it's both unnecessary and silly to feel that apologies need to be offered to her because it happened to be a thread that she authored. Threads go wildly off-topic around here, for a variety of reasons, on a daily basis. Hell, I probably post more off-topic garbage than almost everybody here so ................?

Anyway, don't worry too much about any of this JP. It will blow over.........if you let it. :smile:

Peace,

Self-inflicted.

Yet here we are anyway.

Lemmie wasn’t asking for special treatment, she was asking for the rules concerning trolling, derailing and Tobin Syndrome to be enforced.

So don’t.

deja vu. Reminds me of something Dr. Shades once said to mentalgymnast...
Dr. Shades, 10.17, wrote:MODERATOR NOTE: mentalgymnast, if you intend to refrain from doing something, simply refrain from doing it.

From now on, it is no longer necessary for you to start a thread announcing what you will refrain from doing.

I hereby alleviate you from that burden henceforth and forever.

RULE OF THUMB:

Has something to do with Mormonism: Thread start yes.
Has NOTHING to do with Mormonism: Thread start NO.
[mod color removed because I am quoting]

That post is from a thread that the OP started in Terrestrial but which was eventually moved to Telestial.

Yes, and now we're being treated to a full blown "mg effect" with the creation of this new vanity thread.

Are you going to be posting final vote tallies on that? How many folks still need to vote?
