I thought I was just criticizing Cirque du Soleil?

I will admit to being at times all WTF about the stuff between Classic and Shawnee, I like both of them, I agree with each of them from time to time and disagree with each of them as well. Emma was just a loud mouthed trouble maker. It was very clear that was her only agenda.

Others, who are still here maybe have their agenda more at "I will shout at you and call you names because I feel you don't respect me..." or some variation of that. Yes, it gets tedious, but that's particular to a certain relationship, not an MO.

I also hate to put people on ignore, for one it doesn't really work and for two it smacks of censorship, I'm not really into censorship. In the case of Emma if she had anything of value to say or even once tried to be a team player I would feel differently.

There are times I have considered asking to be banned for my own good and due to my time abuse policies, but that would only stop me posting, not reading.

I think you've gone out of your way to be polite and civil when other people were less than to you, and I think you "get it" that tone rarely comes across over the net and you err on the side of thinking the best of people, rather than being ever ready to get into it.

But whatever you do, don't let Dana know I used gay as a pejorative term.
