Everything...is subject to deletion. A deleted post? The least of MY worries. Deletion of my mom thru the ROT...that's my main worry. So you see, there are some things that require more worry than others.
Pardon my flip sarcasm, just seems that when you utter those "governing" words..."You may be subject to deletion", you get just a little gooey inside and you feel just a smidgen of glee that you got to use your "tools" of rightheousness. This is my opinion of what I see...of course you won't agree. That's your right.
Ros must have prepared for what she was inevitably going to incur when she brought this to the table. She must have known that there would be a "food " fight. I t would stand to reason, wouldn't it? So I for one, don't understand why she gets upset that we question everything she posts. Is that so unrealistic to conceive? With all due respect, what did she expect...realistically? :-)
If she couldn't handle it(and i say that sincerely Ros), she should have thought about that when she comtemplated bringing it here for everyone to swallow. Does that make sense?
That's pretty much why I question her...because of the way she answer's back the ones who don't believe. It's as if she is taking it personally, and I would like to understand that. Believe me, if that gb member would post directly than Ros would be off the hook, so to speak. But as it is now, she is the go-between and must endure the consequences/ ramifications of such a choice. Or maybe she musn't in her eyes. But again, and with a smile, what did she expect?
I love your site Ros. And I love your mission. Please try to understand what I'M saying, not anyone else. This is how I'M feeling and thinking about this. So if it seems harsh, the harshness is not meant for you, but you have chosen to be the go-between so you must expect that you will be spoken to as we would want to speak to his "heighness". It is directed at the gb memb and the rest of the gb scraps...not at you. What is directed at you, from me, is the questions above re: your defensiveness to the gb memb.
Sincerely, Scallywagger
