			Don't bite my head off for asking, but what exactly is it that's bothering him then?  He had a run in with Tiki and he's upset that UT didn't come to his side and BigV pissed him off.  Is that it, or can you elucidate a little more, because I am having a hard time figuring out what the problem is and if I am, then there's probably a number of others who are also. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Is it that he's feeling unappreciated?

			Perhaps it was the unhelpful juxtaposition of a lack of dwellar unity with a clear case of PD unity. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			[eta] @ Ali: *chuckles* yes and no. I am also copping to what she accused me of. She was right. The time for me to step in on that thread was when daffodil insulted her and accused her of something she wasn't guilty of, out of either ignorance of the wider picture, or a sense of loyalty to his/her friends.* * I am not sure which.

			yep well, maybe that's the case. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			With regard to that situation, it was clear from the outset that it would only end in tears. People need to suck it up and learn from the mistake of invading another forum en masse. Of course there's going to be consequences. Did anyone think the people over there were going to just lay down and take it? I mean, come on. Seriously. Think about it. eta: particularly when it was clear the forum being invaded was full of kooks and drama queens.

			Well, in fairness, it didn't start as an invasion. It was a return safari.

			I don't think it matters how you word it.  It all adds up to a large group of regulars from one forum going to another. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			For what purpose? To have the same discussions there as here? To meet new people maybe? Trying to recruit more posters for this site? What really was the purpose?

			Honestly? I think it was just supposed to be for shits and giggles. It seems to have turned out to be rather more full of the former than the latter.

			ok, well what was the source of the intended humour?  Seeing them get the shits at a bunch of newbies all coming from the same place?  Expecting them to just laugh and be glad a whole heap of weirdo's from another site came and upset the equillibrium of their forum?   
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Isn't that exactly what's happened here? eta: I'm not meaning this to be directed at you Dana. It's just that you're the one answering the questions, and they're ones I've been thinking about ever since I first saw that safari thread the lumberjim posted. I'm just not surprised at how it's all turned out.

			Well. We were returning the jape. As their safari had actually proved quite amusing. And it seemed an interesting idea.

			A few people had my back in the very first dramatic Tiki thread, which precedes everything.  Tiki had about 5 big fuck-you posts calling me the worst she could come up with.  I wound up not just a "fucking bad person", but rather, "a completely worthless waste of humanity."  She sprayed a torrent of liquid shit at me. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	S123, DanaC, Moar and Flint, and a few others, "had my back" with statements about how Tiki should not have attacked me in such an abrasive way. LJ had one-liners trying to poke Tiki in humorous ways. Jinx had nothing. But it was OK! I actually secretly enjoyed being given the huge FUCK YOU posts. I just make my case best I can, and let people decide what they think. Wacky feisty bitch, I thought, this is actually fun, a little, someone who wants to flame the shit out of me. Nobody has flamed the shit out me for a few years, they all treat me differently here, that's actually not what I really prefer. So bring it on! And, I thought, at the end of the year we'll all look back with a sort of satisfaction -- that was a really feisty whack-job bitch wasn't it, but she was fun for a while, man it takes all kinds.  |

 I'm sorry that's not how you remember things though, I should have said it on here too and made it public record.

			Ah yes.  I didn't participate in that thread because it seemed to be about people participating in some different forum.  Not my forum, not my business.

			fuck all this.   
		
		
		
		
		
		
			tiki is a troll. she was consciously trying to drive a wedge in among us. I recognize that. it was simply illuminating to me that people would let her allegations stand.....for whatever reason...apathy, or fear of conflict...or agreement.....whatever. I have more of an issue with people like dar and bigV that want to judge me based on their perception that I'm some kind of thug running amok in the church choir. I can't actually fault them, because I've spent so many posts saying 'eat a dick' and 'cock' and calling people crazy........ I just have been re-examining the effort i put into this board. what do I get out of it in exchange for the effort I put into it? Is it equitable?..... please keep in mind that I'm just some dickhole in PA that does not effect your day to day. also! Cloud, I see you and hope you are doing well.

			You're in a Church Choir? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Well, PRAISE GOD!!! ![]() .............................................................................................. I remember seeing some of that action with Tiki going on (I never logged on). ...that be what I would call a "cwazzy parson." Deleting of posts... pffft... that's nothing more than the removal of a subjective mish-mash of rhetorical jargon condensed within the space of few hundred pixels. You da' Man so it be your call. Hell, I come here because you's people are the "sane" ones. Any of that make sense to ya'll? Shouldn't. Why? Because I'm a Madman. ![]() Seems there are benefits to lurking. Well, back to being a nut again...
