I hope the apology's accepted. Viciousness occurred all around, but I don't think we should ban somebody for calling out what she sees as belligerent behavior. We need to chill out and stop infighting. Period. Some of us broke the forum's rules about saying things that were directly insulting. We were called out by a new member, perhaps sanctimoniously but not completely unfairly. Nella deserves praise for her courage now that she's sought redemption for being excessively sensitive. There were some of us that I felt like telling off for being malicious, but I didn't and she did. Other than all the PC crap, brand X liberal whining and lawyering that was brought up, she's a cool chick in my book.

You're welcome. I love it when ladies are classy yet bitches to deserving folk. :D

He's the only one who can see the truth. Pap, ignorance means lack of knowledge. I've already stated that I don't know much about horror. As for your other comments: YOU'RE WRONG! I was not that kind of member when I came here. YOU ALL made this happen. Be honest with yourself. If you all stop, I will stop, too.

When Zwoti gets your message, he won't be able to access your link...I cleaned up quite a bit of 'mess' here yesterday, along with anything that had degraded to arguing

And this 'moderator' didn't say anything out of line

The majority of us have been here long enough (some of us have been here since the forum STARTED 5 years ago) that we CAN decide how our forum is and how it will be, we don't need new people to come in and tell us how they think it SHOULD be...We will not conform to their liking, they will have to adjust to ours, or they can leave...Majority rules

There are many different types of people here, from many different places and age groups, with many different personalities, yet we have all somehow managed to get along just fine for many years...Many new people jump in, accept us, and do very well, although not all of them can get the hang of it, so they leave...If you are expecting us to change, you will be extremely disappointed and very unhappy here...Your incessant complaining, instigating and demands for us to conform is irritating many of our members, even those who NEVER snap at people (Newb and Jenna, that REALLY surprised me), so I have to conclude that the problem rests with your behavior, not ours.

There are literally millions of forums on the internet, you can choose from any of them if you have a problem with this one

If your "apology" is sincere, you will settle in and refrain from alienating the majority of the forum...We shall see.

Zwoti is an excellent moderator, and he's also a close personal friend...He will agree with me on this issue
