@very-rusty saidBut this thread is about you, isn't it? We are out to get you.
Why would you bother saying what you did if you weren't? Why would you be jumping over everything I say you feel is out of the way or a personal attack on someone? Never mind the we lets just discuss you for now!
@very-rusty saidAnd I said: I've been subjected to way more personal abuse over the years on the Spirituality Forum than here. There is no significant "opposition" to my posting here on the General Forum. I don't see my posting on any forum as "getting away with" anything.
let me remind you of your own post to Suzie Q in this very thread.
@suzianne said
I might remind you that this isn't the Spirituality Forum where you two got away with this for years.
Are you really citing these words of mine as an example of "personal abuse" directed at Suzianne by me?
What is your definition of "personal abuse" then?
@handyandy saidThe only one saying anything so far about it is you Andy, where are you getting this "WE" from? Are you looking for a few green thumbs up?....LOL... 😉
But this thread is about you, isn't it? We are out to get you.

@fmf saidThat wouldn't be for me to decide that would fall entirely on a "Site Moderator"!

Didn't I just say that?
Of course said post would have to be Alerted first if the receiver of it considered it to be personal abuse!
Did you felt personally abused, if so it was up to you to alert it at the time!

@very-rusty saidYou cited it as an example of "personal abuse" on my part at the bottom of page 26. YOU cited it; it has nothing to do with what a Moderator may happen to think. The example of "personal abuse" was one that YOU provided. If you are now seeking to distance yourself from your own post, just say so.

@fmf saidWho ever felt personally abused would need to report that abuse at the time it happened would they not?

Do you claim to have been personally abused? If you were then it would be up to you to report it. Same as Suzie, myself, or anyone else.
I don't take most things as serious as a lot of people do on here.

@very-rusty saidThen you don't believe that personal abuse is serious?

@very-rusty saidStuff about me being a paedophile, being mentally ill, having cognitive disorders, being a pathological liar, being a willing servant of "Satan", of raping the woman who gave birth to my two children, being incapable of knowing whether raping a baby is wrong, of having a philosophy of life that is excrement. "Personal abuse" of that kind.
Do you claim to have been personally abused?
@very-rusty saidYou cited three sentences stating my point of view - which differs from Suzianne's - and you offered it as an example of "personal abuse". If you're going to post stuff in public, Very Rusty, you've just got to own it, like I do with mine, and stop wriggling and squirming in your efforts to disguise or spin the vacuousness of what you originally posted.
Who ever felt personally abused would need to report that abuse at the time it happened would they not?
@handyandy saidIn some cases it is Andy, and that is up to a Moderator to decide not us, but it would be up to us to report it, would it not? I think the receiver of the post has to be the one to decide if they consider it a personal abuse or not. As an example you jumped all over me when I compared g-b-s's hair and a Moderator removing a post against the TOS. g-b-s, may not even care in fact I believe remember him joking about it got up and left or something funny along those lines one day!
Then you don't believe that personal abuse is serious?
In a post before trev33 referred to me as rusty buckets in the thread about no water, all good natured ribbing Andy. Please tell me you understand the difference?

@fmf saidStop trying to win a silly point fmf!

Again if one is feeling personally abused then it is up to them to report it to a Moderator. Not talk about it long after it has happened!

@very-rusty saidJust own the silly, half-baked thing you said: the ridiculous example of what you think "personal abuse" is. Just own it. Stop squirming.

Well stop talking about old personal abuse you believe you received!
Do you understand how silly that sounds? WE both know you give as good as you get!

@very-rusty saidI don't alert posts. I think everyone's true colours should be left there for all to see.

It is not the reporting of a post to the Moderators that turns that post into "personal abuse".
"Personal abuse" is "personal abuse" regardless of what a Moderator thinks.
@fmf saidWell that will get you no where disagreeing with the Moderator fmf.

Trust me on that one, I don't always agree with them either but have to except the decision they make same as you and everyone else on the site.
If your not going to report personal abuse don't cry about it after the fact!
