Please don't go, PR! There are some folks that can't be happy unless everyone and their cousins are paying attention to only them and their point of view. I've been called a bleeding-heart commie peacenik (complete with beret, black turtleneck, goatee and bongos!) because I asked for a little consideration and restraint in a thread.
Unfortunately we're a little too big a crew now to fly completely under the radar, and a few questionable folk make their appearances now and again. Yes, it was nicer without them. But if you leave, the whole love/hate ratio will move a few points in the wrong gorram direction! So please, for the rest of us, stick around. Pretty please?

You know I was going to ignore this thread for the most part. PR is mad and she is allowed. But as it grows and grows I feel that I should say someting.
Yes I sent a PM to PR. I did not "flame her". I pointed out to her that she wasn't the hall monitor and that what differnce did it make if there were more than one thread. The reason I did this? because a member who has been a part of this forum since 2003 and posts very irregularly created a thread - *gasp*, at the same time Followmal posted a similar one. So instead if ignoring the duplication, or posting something in a friendly manner - PR simply states that there is already a thread. Had I been that person, the one that created the thread I would have been embarrased and certainly left feeling unwelcome.
So I pm'd her, because I am a grown up and choose to deal with things on a personal rather than public basis. I aslo mentioned to her that her later post stating that she was trying to keep the site from being bogged down was ludicrous since she posts huge pictures all the time. We all do. So don't tell someone that their 1 little thread is going to bog the forum down.
She responded to me and I explained to her that refreshing honestly is nice, until it becomes rudeness and that whether she meant it as rude, perception is what is important.
As for what this person called her, I didn't see it and I told her that.
Now if we want to start huge threads about this 
fine, we are just clogging up the forum.
Am I sorry that she feels bad. Of course. But how do you think the person that innocently started a thread felt?

Why? Because Traveler gets a kick out of it, and his laughing scares the neighbors.

DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE US! Why listen to idiots and let them effect you so. There are many, many more people here who value you than not PhoenixRose. So please don't leave the site even if it is temporarily. Everyone has a bad day and everyone can be a bitch/asshole and overreact. Don't overreact now. Please.
