Do us a favor, UT.... quietly unban her after a little bit so she can come back when she's sorted herself out a little...?

She's not IP-banned; she could just start another account if she wanted to come back.

Here's an idea for an experiment: unplug the Cellar for a month and see who's still alive when you bring it back up.

Doing that might save some lives, HLJ. Has anyone ever forgone food for their addiction to the cellar? I am thinking maybe we need a poll.

During the begining of last year I stopped posting for a while. I still lurked, but basically had nothing to say.

It was a good move for me. I had too much personal stuff I needed to sort out. I lost my objectivity when it came to this place so I stopped talking and just decided to watch.

It's amazing how much you learn about people from watching what they say and not interacting yourself. It's also interesting how much you can learn about yourself in hindsight which if you're lucky, you can put into practice in the future.

I'm rather concerned and disturbed about this.

Edit: The single post citation showing a battle with Ali is *not* likely to be a single significant event for Bri. She's been here too long and seen too much to let a single clusterfuck do the job. There's more going on, and I, being the nancyboy I am, am worried about her.

Well, I know where she'll be for about eight hours a week. I could stalk her.

Don't worry Els, she'll be ok. If she wants to step away for a while, and feels she needs to lock the door on herself, then that's just how it is.

I doubt any one row did this.

When she's ready, she knows how to reach people without going through PMs here.

UT, I'm sure you did what you could to dissaude her, and I'm sure you reminded here that every time she asked to be banned, god killed a kitten, so she must have needed it. The banning, I mean. Needed the banning.
