A new "In Crowd"

I'm not interested in the petty squabbles you and Suzianne were involved in before I started posting on the General Forum. She's talking about there being a "cabal" or "in crowd" trying to "control" the forum now and she's wittering on about "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" and people conspiring against her and people she imagines are Moderators who she "dares" to ban her and who she thinks have already "banned" unnamed people who disagree with them. I think she is talking utter, paranoid rubbish. And I will not pretend otherwise 😉

Were you not in the forums between 2006 - 2008[?]

The General Forum? No. The Debates Forum, yes.

Sir,
You are entitled to your opinion. It doesn't make you right. Every time you post, you remind me more and more of an OLD MOD use to be on here, makes me wonder if you are him. Call me Paranoid if you wish.

You sound just like him, and you never admit to be wrong about anything. At least that I've noticed. You argue about everything, rather you know the subject or not. That is your option of course. I have no idea when you started posting but it is pretty easy to find out if I want to even bother looking.

I can see why you would remind her of a certain MOD though because you sound very much like him. coincidence? It is possible I suppose. I can tell you this much. Yours is the first Thread I've seen Russ get involved in a very, very long time. He was the first poster after you posted, and not long after either. He actually posted a 2nd time in it, very unusual!!!

Kindest Regards,
Respectfully,
Sincerely,

Don't you have any banter other than this?

Sir,
So you got nothing...That is what I figured!

What is it you think I've got "nothing" about?

Suzianne goes on and on and on about a supposed "in crowd". She's even referred to it as a "cabal" trying to "control" the forum. She's the only one, as far as I can see, who is "serious" about it. You should raise it with her. HandyAndy's thread is simply having a bit of fun with it. Did you really not realize this until 15 pages into this thread? 😛

Someone's upset.

Not in the slightest. That's what 😛 signifies. I'm having a giggle at your paranoid expense, Suzianne.

I would not dare steal your only claim to "fame".

Your idea that being a member of this community has anything to do with "fame" or there being anyone making a "claim to fame" is another part of your peculiar hobby horse. You'll be talking about people deliberately trying to get "thumbs up" next! 😛

Okay. But at least learn how to spell it.

It's my typing skills that need improvement but you are right "i t" instead of the "e t".😳😀

Suz,
Yes, it is always easy to tell. He comes back with a lame response when he got nothing.
He claims to be in the Debate forums between 2006 - 2008 never in the General forum. I find that hard to believe to begin with. Now lets say it is true. How can he be commenting on things he didn't even know about. He would have to go back and read every post of that time, and there were a lot of them as you know.

But I am not commenting on 2006-2008. I am commenting on the paranoid things Suzianne is saying about the General Forum right now in 2016. I can scarcely give two hoots about whether you and her were posting the same kind of stuff 8-10 years ago. 😉

GBS,
Don't get down on yourself. My typing skills are probably about the worst on here. Doesn't stop me, I still seem to get my point across. 😉 Andy was always good with spelling and proper grammar.

Sir,
You don't seem to understand that a lot of it comes from that time period. Just because you don't give a hoot doesn't really concern either of us I am sure. We will both sleep well tonight even if your not happy with us....LOL...

You claim not to have been in the General forum but yet still jump in with both feet making comments about that time period. You did that, not Suz or I. Man do you ever remind me of that OLD MOD....I know his name will come to me eventually.
