Hmmm... Well I suppose I have been told, haven't I?
*shrugs* I will not apologise for defending TG. I do not defend him because he is my husband, I defend him because I feel that things he has said or done were simply taken out of context. And, since I know him better than anyone else, I try to alleiviate the tenion, to try and be diplomatic. But I guess my attempt was all for nothing.
Granted, if I saw someone else unjustly being persecuted, I would stand up for them as well, even if it means butting heads with TG. And believe me, it has happened, just not in public because I don't air my dirty laundry where other people can see it. I know that vanillaslave has left, but I just felt the need to defend myself against the snide remarks.
~d~ I can truly understand how you feel about losing that particular thread. I would feel the same way if I had experienced it as well. However, you can take my word for it that he would never just up and delete something just because one person (other than say Jinn) wanted it so. I can understand your apprehension but I saw what posts he had deleted and looked at the last pages of the general myself and I assure you that there is still a lot there that he could have deleted and didn't.
And there in lies my problem. I can normally see both sides of the story and I hate flame wars and fights and I will usualy try and find a solution. If that warrants the types of comments that I received from vanillaslave, then fine. I am a big girl, I can take my lumps but it makes me wonder if it pays to try and help these days especially because it is always seen as me taking sides.
Now, it is my personal opinion that this thread has turned into something bitter and ugly aside from the few people that have kept a level head.
That being said, I have a challenge for everyone here. Let's see how many people can step up to the plate, but their differences aside, and be the bigger person. Let's see if we can work TOGETHER to find a solution that is mutally benificial to all involved. I TRIPLE DOG DARE YA
There. It's said. Will my advice be taken serioulsy? I doubt it but no can ever say I haven't tried. I still hold true to my suggestion of an archive.
