Aussie was fully aware that I couldn't post anything positive here. Why are you taking it all so seriously? If you really were a female you wouldn't be protesting so much and would laugh it off.

I am not being abusive - I'm just annoyed that you/Monk have turned this place into your blog. I have posted here for years and you and Monk are the only ones who are continually trying to censor me.

Go with the flow. What difference does it make whether I believe you and Monk are one and the same? Aussie always believed the last moderator AiA was supernova and no-one censored him.

You offend me with your continual name calling. It's as though we have to tiptoe around your sensitivities whenever we post here in case our posts are deleted or we're banned.

You are only the moderator "Annie" - not God. This is not one of your tame little dull as dishwater forums - or at least it wasn't and it's not all about posting infantile & false platitudes to each other either.

Ask Aussie again what the definition of Political Animal is? Some of the ex members are sickened at the behaviour of you two and can't even stand viewing this place anymore. If you keep up your bullying tactics - I will contact them personally and start up another petition directly with FD.

Most of us posting here accept the fact Aussie should have a full term - but not with you and Monk continually interfering, censoring and being abusive.

Look Mantra, I'm simply doing my moderator job, and Monk is posting as he usually does on forums. He is just being himself. We are not the same person. We happen to be close friends, but we don't always agree on everything.

Nobody is abusive to you until you post something confrontational and abusive first. Nobody is censoring you. I haven't deleted or moved any of your posts. I am asking that you stop bashing me, and get on with the business of being a member here, like everybody else.

I will accept the fact that I am confrontational - but I am not abusive. That is only your perception.

I will post as I see fit. I follow the rules - you just don't like the content. I had no intentions of coming back here - but it was at Aussie's instigation - so lump it or ban me, but do not tell me how or what to post.

I have not interfered with Aussie’s role here in any way. I hope he serves his full term and wins many more.

I have opposed one constitutional amendment and based that opposition 100% on facts. I am 100% entitled to do that,every member has a duty to improve the board. I have proposed a wishlist, Aussie has accepted it pretty much holus bolus and I think it will make the board a bit more fun, more lively.

So I think I am a positive influence here.

Time I stepped in here, even though I am working:
mantra wrote:Aussie was fully aware that I couldn't post anything positive here. Why are you taking it all so seriously? If you really were a female you wouldn't be protesting so much and would laugh it off.
I am not fully aware of any such thing. Why would you say that?

How are they trying to censor you?

Yes, and I had solid IP evidence, independently confirmed by boxy. All you have is ridiculous, wild and bizarre speculation.
You offend me with your continual name calling. It's as though we have to tiptoe around your sensitivities whenever we post here in case our posts are deleted or we're banned.

Ask Aussie again what the definition of Political Animal is?

Yeah, this is PA, yet from the conduct of one, from where I sit, it is fast becoming tittle tattle kindy. At PA, no-one needs to tiptoe around perceived sensitivities, so why do you believe you have to Mantra.
Some of the ex members are sickened at the behaviour of you two and can't even stand viewing this place anymore.
Is that so? Yet, I see them 'viewing' all the time! Further, Mantra, speak for yourself unless you want to tell us all who these 'ex-members" are.
If you keep up your bullying tactics - I will contact them personally and start up another petition directly with FD.
Oh, the irony!! They are 'bullying" you eh? Isn't this PA?

Mantra, you do what you reckon is the mature thing to do, and if that means scuttling off behind the scenes tittle tattling, you go right ahead. There is no need to make the big threat out loud, is there?

Annie is not Monk. Annie first came to my attention at Little Ozzie Bloke's Forum. I have physically met Little Ozzie Bloke. Annie is Global Mod there. I asked LOB about her, and he told me who she was and where she was...American, California. I then invited her to PA......where Monk was an existing Member. Their association grew from that. It is most absurdly annoying that you continue with your provocative remarks that I and they are lying to you. I find it most offensive that you accuse me of lying on the matter.

And, one last comment. I did not initiate your return here, although I am quite happy that you are here. Get the facts right. They are:

You complained, on FD's main Board, that your account here had been de-activated. I was surprised to read it, as that had not occurred in my term to my knowledge. So, I asked you to clarify, and that longish conversation ended with me asking if you wanted the account activated, and you replied in the affirmative.

Go read the thread again Aussie. I don't want to accuse you of being a liar because possibly the power has gone to your head again. I only came back here because you initiated it - so deactivate it again, delete my account - you can do whatever you want.

I seriously don't mind either way. With Monk's offensive avatar and a fake moderator - this is just a reincarnation of Monk's blog now in more ways than one.

Did it occur to you Socky that the moderator might be squirmish about the subject because "she's" never had to deal with it before. The reaction is more typical of a male.
How do you know that what I write is true? Why trust my words as something belonging to the reality out there-->? There is no logical reason to do so. Not even consistency (on all levels) in the retelling of stories written in threads can make it actually belong to reality, in your mind. And that is as much true for everyone else as it is for you and me. Reading a cogent account on forum often enough, does not make it true, just as reading Gulliver's Travels often enough does not make it real. My gender, age, profession and experiences will be forever a mystery hidden in or kept out of stories.


For example, how do you know that I am not male? You've never seen me? If you assessed my writing style using a program designed to decide gender, it would say absolutely this writer is male. Try* it for yourself… I have purposefully made this missive the required length for a valid result. Of course, the program will qualify the result and say if you are female and incorrectly placed as male, most likely you are a professional writer etc… which is something I claim to be, funnily enough. Now remembering that consistency within the story line does not prove reality… what gender am I?
