I don't care to get involved in these battles. They are repetitive and negative and serve zero purpose from what I can tell.

I was specifically speaking to something that was said to me just as it is now being said to Dive.

Yes you keep expressing your desire not to get involved, writing essays about leaving the site and yet here you are having a little go at your percieved enemies while completely overlooking some quite unpleasant behaviour and attitudes by people you have decide are on your side, or something silly like that. You are letting yourself down.

Why do you care? One might conclude you are slightly obsessed with GB. Give it a rest, with all due respect. You are an intelligent, articulate poster who often gives much food for thought...for the life of me, I cannot understand the amount of time and energy that you (and some others) spend on GB. Ignore him...he clearly drives you up a wall!

Careful you are agreeing with me about FMF here and any second now you will receive a barrage of sexual innuendo and childish prepubescent jibes.

I simply noted that Dive insinuating what he did with me is exactly what Ghost has done with Dive. And Dive doesn't like it.
You remained silent when Dive was the accuser but vocal when he is the accused.

I'm not accusing you of anything. I think you are attracted to FMF, that is not an "accusation", neither is it homophobic, nor is it abusive. It's just an observation.

Ummmm....no. lol

Interesting word choice. "Tackle." This connotates a fight of sorts.
I do not wish to "tackle" any one...perhaps you do. I prefer friendly, polite discussions...

Mine was just an observation, that's all. My opinion. You don't have to see it as I do.

On the contrary "tackle" implies either a sporting challenge or possible the paraphernalia of fishing. Come on you re better than this 😉

I must have missed this. Or I have forgotten about it. When did it happen? How was I hypocrite in all of this?

The post that was quoted here has been removed

You simply don't know what's going on. Or, more likely, you are ignoring the big issues for the sake of upholding your unprincipled partisan allegiances. You would do well in the clans forum.

Hmmmmm....at face value....yes. But honestly, I do not see how I always criticize you. In the past, I have just reacted to your relentless questioning of my every a, an, the. lol

You always seemed to prefer to pick a fight with me...."tackle" my every thought. And I told you in the past, and here again tonight, that is just not my preference. No ri ...[text shortened]... e with you and it is not a pleasant way to converse. Others don't mind it...to each his/her own.

No one is picking a fight with you. You have decided to re-enter this this thread and "tackle" FMF in particular but you are also talking about me in several of your posts. It you don't want to get involved in the issues why are you in here now. You are quite hypocritical and actually well below you usual forum.

You are entitled to see it that way 🙂
I am not the least bit surprised.

Well, carry on...don't let me spoil all of the fun here in this thread!

You are not spoiling anything, in fact your current posting underlines the unprincipled nature of the clique in this thread and adds to the interest value.

No, you did not. Surprise, surprise. lol

I did not condemn either of you. I pointed out a parallel that I saw as blatantly hypocritical. In my opinion. And it "involved" me....so I felt comfortable in doing so.

I also stated that I don't care for hateful comments from anyone.

I have no desire to entrench myself in the various squabbles that you are a part of...and I would think you might understand why.

You say you don't care for hateful comments, you keep saying it, and yet you have not once "tackled" nor addressed the comments Grampy Bobby made about people who commit suicide being an insult to God and to thier families. In this thread a few pages back there are homophobic jibes being made over and over again with one of the combatants opening admitting to being proudly homophobic. And yet you say nothing to these people. To be perfectly frank with you I think you are scared to address the real issues under discussion because you don't want to break ranks. It's not an edifying characteristic.

Great post. 🙂

But you've just put yourself in the "intelligent and articulate" camp! 😉

I must admit I visit this thread often, a guilty pleasure, like watching Coronation Street.

It was a great post from an excellent contributor both in the private and public forums.

My sentiments precisely.

When you infamously stated and tried to justify that people who commit suicide were an insult to God and to their families, was that a "hateful comment" or, like Suzianne excused you, do you excuse yourself because it is "part of your religious beliefs"?

I don't expect you to answer of course, at least not directly. No doubt you will dig up some copy-pasted platitude to hide behind. I find you to be one of the biggest cowards on this forum; spouting volumes of some of the most snidely written invective I've ever seen on this site.

Please note, there are two 'ghosts' active in these forums.

(*I'm the one in the cravat).

I am careful of that. But thanks for the reminder.

I think she did express disagreement with Grampy Bobby over the issue of suicide, if I recall correctly, but what I found interesting was how she didn't seem to object to the accusation ~ in that infamous post to Kewpie ~ that people who disagreed with the "truth" of his beliefs were peddlers of "premeditated lies".

When it became blatantly obvious more recently that Grampy Bobby's supposed apology had not applied to (or was not sincere about) this aspect of his nastiness on that thread, she simply asserted that she accepted the apology anyway.

So it's impossible to glean what principle she is adhering to over the issue of nasty comments if indeed there is any principle in play here aside from some sort of principle of partisanship-come-what-may.
