Forrest:”Post a topic and get it approved in the 'Elections' category without there being a real electoral event and Belly and I will kill you. Slowly and painfully. Many others will look on approvingly while we do it.”

Noted, I promise. Gawd.

Okay gotchya I couldn’t see them but the sections are still there, had it in my head that one was about moderator decisions but maybe a convo had turned up once in the technical thread .

Personal agendas I really don’t understand. If I bought up a thread on foster care it would be a personal agenda? Is it like the men who flood threads with anti-feminist stuff – sorta on topic technically but really just using it as a platform?

Thanks for the heads up on MTR, I think I will avoid them.

Jinny you were naughty and punished for it and now you feel punished but to avoid feeling just naughty (because that is boring and childlike) you want either someone else to back right down or crank it right up so you can feel like a rebel (much more interesting).

I was just as disappointed as you seem to be about deletions but that was because the topic had turned to a fav subject of mine. Took me two deleted posts and a sneaky one getting through to work out not to mention the content in another thread. I was bit slow but I got there in the end.

Questions answered first.
Foxy, no she was not banned, on coming to a thread always good to read every post, informative if nothing else.
I found remarks here and in other threads showing some are not happy.
I gave as near as you can get the reason she left.
Second not a question, maybe not wise, but jenny move on, in your short time here you give lectures to some and refuse good advice your self.
On form you will be unhappy with my comments.
Do you understand I could be very abrupt here but while not looking to continue talking to you am at least trying to give good advice.

Jinny, I'm not sure why you are asking some of these questions. You know you were only suspended for 24 hours. I even termed it "time out", so you should have realised you would be able to post again.

Hardly anyone gets banned from the site. You would need to really be a vexatious poster for that to happen. But penalties do increase for repeat offences. So, generally a day the first time, a couple of days to a week the second time, a month, a couple of months, and so on.

Normally doesn't get to a couple of months because posters generally value participating here more highly than flaming, or whatever the problem was with their post. So people pull their heads in.

The issue with "personal agendas" is that the thread that you started was entirely about your personal situation. It wasn't about an issue in general using your situation as an example, which might have been acceptable.

Because it was about you and because it was about an area that raises emotions there was a good chance you were going to come in for personal criticism and that you would not accept it well. Which is exactly what happened.

We're not set-up to run a personal counselling service, and it's not appropriate. So I won't be approving any more threads like that.

Thanks for your reply. This whole thread apart from discussing the rules here also still proves how humans like to assuming and judge what they don't know.

GY: I said I will respect now that I have learnt. But you said more then just suspension and other thing which I have no right no share as it involves you. Thus my questions. Easy enough? They are your rules, how come others are getting away with breaking them?

TPP: "naughty(because that is boring and childlike)". Naughty is so much fun you just don't realize, and we all have our youth in us, unless it was that painful some choose to block it out because they cannot accept the past. What is wrong with copypaste and search btw? i can't believe someone got fired. Better start working for him/herself, no need to be bossed around.

This place is so nice. Like one big happy family. It has the godfathers, the granparents, the fathers and mothers, the rebellious teenagers, the children, and the visitors and come and go. hahaha

You talk about friendship. Friendship does not have to be physical. Here, copypaste easier http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friendship

"Can personal agendas be of interest to everyone
and worth discussing even after being labeled as one?" Who is going to answer this one?

Have a great day! Thanks for all the advice. Was good, very good.

Oh dear...Jinny. This is planet earth, and I suspect your not quite with-it today. Clearly you have immutable problems since your circumstances are still not in the realms of, and quite frankly, if you dig a hole for yourself most try and find a way out (ASAP). Why don't you stay with your web-site ( which I've read intently ) and save your self any more embarrassment. ( having fun yet:)

Humor and satire, are quite a common act brought on by the need to express one's self:) and I do so knowingly. BS! you say? Like I said at the top.....Welcome to the world.

BLUE: i respect your wishes before on not getting refereed to. I believe i have a right to state that you were wrong in you judgement, like a lot of them. too bad, so sad. don't like it, go form your own website. The stuff u said eventually is BS, brain washed. cannot accept how it is, why it is. IMHO

Personalty.......I think you have far more important matters at hand, so I wish you all the best.

Enjoy what-ever it is that you do with your life. Right now...Iam off for a game of golf, so while my affairs are in order, Iam going to enjoy mine:)

"i have a right to state that your were wrong in you judgement, like a lot of them".

Yes......no-one is perfect........yes!.........and?
