Why would a person want to abuse a persona privately, when it can be done and has been done publicly? Doesn't make sense.

Of course it makes sense. Just as one example......I may want to blast the shit out of *you publicly.......and then think....."hang on, maybe *Sappho has some other thing in mind I missed, but.......hey, I'll just ask *her privately, and thus not embarrass either of *us."

So you abuse the person on forum in order to humiliate them and after that you abuse the persona in private messages in order not to humiliate them.

Sorry Aussie you are not making sense.

BTW, did *you make that distinction *you now seek to make when freediver contacted *you via PM to ask if *you would run as a candidate for election? Which *one was he addressing? *You or *you or *you?

So far as I understand he was addressing the writer and not the persona.

Oh yes I am. You just don't want to concede it. There are many things sent via PM.....and all of them are addressed to the www persona......not the real person.

Rubbish......all he knew was the Board persona........not the real life person. How could he know the real life person known only to him as Magic Monkey/Sappho?

Nah, Sappho.....a PM is addressed to the www persona.......not the real life person. It is absurd to suggest otherwise.

Aussie .. if this conversation is at all linked to me in any way .. I just wish to state:

1) I feel sorry for you.

2) I sent ONE PM telling a disturbed person to cease following me around cyberspace 24/7 coz I wasn't interested in reading anything they had to say to me and that they needed to back off and leave me the hell alone.

3) I also stated that they should know that I don't read any of their posts as they are on ignore.

4) I also made it perfectly clear that I was under no obligation to respond to them.

Ok .. I'm outta here.

So it is not you, the real person, running this board... just your persona?

Maybe there should be a requirement that when there is a complete stalemate and a majority of members, who have been active in the couple of weeks before sign such Petition, that the Host steps in, boots out the Admin and conducts an election for new Admin in which the old Admin can’t run.

I don’t want to see any hole in corner shit like MM and kiwi_dave ever again!

No Aussie it is not aimed at you. boxy was just as big a log as you were at your worst. Selfish arseholes who have driven off most of the membership cannot be allowed to frustrate the wishes of the membership.

Similarly, Petitions should have a simple test of a majority, no magic number bullshit.

Awww .. I didn't expect to see this. Thank you Rainbow for your kind words.

I do not think it is appropriate to let someone drive you away. If that is what they want- why give it to them?

[Jovial Monk]

There are people I would like to see gone, the brainless gut thinkers, the pointless obscenity and abuse spouters hiding their complete failure and inadequacy. The lunatics, christ we get a few of those here!

Nah, the real me is pressing the buttons. But, you voted for or against your perception of 'Aussie' and if you communicate with me via PM, you are addressing your perception of that www character you know as 'Aussie.'
