This is something on which we can all agree.Follow

I think I know what you were talking about....


/shudder

I guess I don't care very strongly in either direction except that the near constant barrage of attacks have surpassed tiresome and have moved on to vapid, clingy, needy, attention whoring. Surely there's something else to talk about to get attention rather than "acting out". If people really think that she's got some sort of mental illness, that makes it all the worse in my mind that they would be so persistant in exploiting her weaknesses for the not even particularly thrilling entertainment value.

Of course, I'm no licensed clinical counselor or anything, so I wouldn't be willing to make such a diagnosis. If I were, I'd surely be more professional than to make such statements on an internet message board.

Oh well, I'm entertained by intellectually stimulating conversation with the occasional sprinkling of silliness. Junior-high style attacks on other people that serve no purpose but to stake a claim in some after-school-special "you are who you hang out with" clique just don't do it for me.

I suppose your mileage may vary.

See my edit above.

I don't hate her. I do find her annoying; but not to such an extent that I need to vent it all day.

There are people on these forums who have frustrated me for years. I would never find a need to start an entire thread just to discuss how much I dislike them, to insult them, or to wish ill upon their children. Again, to each their own.

I also learned to ignore people before kindergarten. Maybe that has something to do with it.

I don't find that necessary as much as I would like the ability to block/refuse PM's from people...or is that what you meant?

It's one thing to frustrate people on the boards. It's entirely another to have someone bypass the boards, contact people through other means and then seem upset when people set limits. Sooner or later, people are going to get really mad about that and really set harsh limits since everything else has been unsuccessful. There have been some major boundary violations in this whole thing and something that has more than occupied the time and energy of people even when the don't want to look at the board. She has persistently ignored limit setting by other members.

I think you can do that. Ignore List.

This is correct. I had ignored Mindel's request for cybor and then I had a new message, but I couldn't see it. So I was like.. WTF WHERE'S MY MESSAGE. Took me 3 days to figure it out.

Well, sub-defaulting kinda works.

But, more importantly, what the fUck is going on?

First Katie goes all hippie and luvvy on us.

Then she invites half of the OOT here.

Then you guys turn out to be demonic hate monsters who post pictures of cats and of Kaain's small *****. Or did I dream it?

And finally, its left to the Asylumites to defend the poor and downtrodden through kind words and unabashed humanity.

If BT were dead, he'd turn in his grave.

And so would his duck.

Nope wasn't her fault really.

I won't pretend to know what you're talking about, but something in me is asking how one person is capable of "occupying the time and energy of people" without their permission to do so. If someone PM'd me, I could ignore it, if someone messaged me, I could ignore or block it, if someone called me, I guess I'd be asking myself why I'm not more to blame for giving out enough personal information to be called. I appreciate the fact that you and others may be frustrated, but you seem to be of the mind that you're entirely blameless. You think she is attention seeking, so you give her attention and then you're surprised that she continues to seek you out. /boggle

If people don't want to be contacted by someone, perhaps creating entire threads about them, their family, etc, shouldn't be created on a public message board, eh?

I think you still have me blocked on skype, don't you? That was a fun night, Stubs.
