Notice Addressing the drama in the OT section this weekeend

Don't you just hate people with lots of love? Ugh.

 

I think most dogs would prefer to be inside at the feet of their master. When I was a boy, our German Shepard would look for the most traveled spot in the house and then plop himself down right in it's path so you had to step over him to get anywhere. If he had to be outdoors, he would settle on the door mat in front of the front door. The whole family loved him and he would have gladly died defending us.

 

If he was smart like me, he would just take a dump on every one of your pillows.

 

What a catty response.

 

I'll purr if you pet me long enough.

 

Good on you. This is what adults do.


And this is the fundamental issue I have with some posters and mods now.

I've been told, "we are all adults" in a condescending way, as if I'm not one.... lol.

These very people defend HCP.

So I ask...(Not to you directly BG, but to the forum in general, and I don't expect an answer because of the biasedness of some here)

If adult "A" jabs at adult "B" and adult "B" tells Adult "A" they don't care for it and to leave them alone, What is the mature adult response?

1. To respect the wishes of adult "B"?

2. To continue to jab and poke at adult "B" from thread to thread?


The only one not acting like an adult, not giving respect to other forum members, blazer fans, is HCP. The very fact that mods and posters try to ridicule some as juvenile, or immature in the face of HCP's antics, is incredibly hypocritial.

I don't care if Adult "B" is showing thin skin, or a lack of sense of humor. One adult asked another adult to stop and they didn't. Instead they doubled down on their behavior.

This behavior was supported by some mods and members of this forum and those same defenders tried to imply that Adult "B" is acting like a child.

This is the issue with this forum. Soo much glaring bias that is dismissed with a blind eye, its pathetic.

 

I agree the situation you describe would be very frustrating. Serious question: if you have HCP on ignore, how is he attacking you? Is he doing it through PMs or something? That doesn't sound like the HCP I have interacted with in this forum for years. What you perceive as bias is, in my case at least, more a matter of being baffled. HCP and I have needled each other many times - but it has never been mean-spirited. I am honestly puzzled.

 

I have never had a conflict with HCP except for the fact that he's a Lakers' fan and I hate his guts for that. Oh come on, j/k.

 

I've never ignored anyone other than Cup and that was only for a couple days. I tried once with HCP, but at the time, he was posting in so many threads it made it difficult to follow and track.

Also, to be clear, I was down for joking with HCP too, but he never once made it clear he was joking, only other people speaking for him(which is annoying in its own right), but then the DM's went to shit when I initially reached out with an olive branch. They were tossed back in my face publicly implying that I was stalking him. That's when I started not listening to anyone else about him joking, because I don't think he was with me and he NEVER did anything to make me think otherwise.

Now for the record, the "following in threads and doubling down" was more of what I witnessed him do to another member that made it clear he didn't want to be messed with. HCP STILL messes with this guy. Its just wrong.

 

That's a shame. To me, you have both always seemed like good people.

 

It's always a shame whether you like the person or not.

I had to put Marzy on ignore and I find that to be a shame because Marzy has many good qualities.

I've flirted with putting others on ignore but finally decided against it and have always been glad that I didn't put them on ignore.

Ignore is really a very last step alternative. I would implore others to try and work it out. An honest effort will nearly always return a good result. Not always but nearly always.

 

And that’s one reason I don’t have cats...

 

We are a match made in heaven. You sling wine, I drink wine. I choose your house to poop in.
