You don't know me, and you have no idea what really happened when I was banned from FR. I didn't go to LP or to Clown Posse to complain about my banning, or defend myself against the things I was accused of. I didn’t do it at the time it happened, or ever. I don't talk about it at MightyRighty or anywhere else that I post. I never have. And if I did, you know what? No one would care.
All I did was change a few lines of code and redirected requests for certain pictures to a picture of naked man sitting in a chair. Whatever time the mods spent cleaning it up is Jim’s fault. I asked nice, he ignored me, I told him I what I would do, and he told me off and I got pissed. If any of you think that if I took the pictures down, it would have stopped the stress on my server, you know nothing about the internet. In hindsight, I wish I would have used a graphic that said Jim Rob is an Asshole. But, we all have our regrets, don't we?
After my banning, I didn't merit an 80 page thread at Clown Posse because I let them have their fun and didn't give them any additional ammunition. They got bored and moved on to other things. Every once in a while they talk about my chin. So what? I really don't care what they think, and I don't care what you think Merc.
After I was banned, I did the one thing very few people seem to be able to do. I let it go.
Late last nite, I got an email from one of the canteeners I still hear from every now and again, asking me if I posted at Clown Posse. So, I looked in there, and then I looked in here.
And, I saw a thread that was fast and free with accusations, and I saw a lot of hemming and hawing in responses to questions. The entire thread is filled with bitterness and hatred, its just plain ugly.
I saw the thread on Liberty Post where you pleaded with everyone to come over there and discuss this on your turf. You were so anxious to be a part of all that, to throw out baseless and unfounded accusations, to participate in the bitterness and hatred, when no one came to you, you actually forum jumped just to join in.
You were so anxious to be a part of it, and so anxious to drag me into it, that you speculated that someone here was me, and you threatened to run around the internet warning people about me. That’s why I’m here Merc, and like we used to say in the canteen, woo hoo for you and your investigative talents. You think you "found me?" You didn't "find me" Merc, I was right there in plain sight.
And the next time you think you're qualified to question someone's "conservative values," take a look in the mirror. Making false accusations based on insufficient information and speculation are not conservative values Merc, and neither are hatred, bitterness and resentment.
It'd be a shame if someone got banned based on a conclusion and an accusation you made in error, wouldn't it Merc? I came in here to keep someone from being falsely accused of being the evil LindaSoG and as long as I was here, I took the time and effort to keep my name from being linked with the Clown Posse.
Whether or not I apologized to anyone after my angry gesture is something you don't know, but you presume to know. That's okay by me too, it really doesn't matter to me whether or not you think I should make a public apology so you can talk about it. You can think what you want to think, and you can post whatever you want, its of no moment to me, especially since we can all see how quick you are to post false accusations and erroneous conclusions.
I don’t know what’s true about Proud Patriots or what’s not true, and quite frankly, I don’t care to get involved. It seems obvious at this point that there has been more than enough attention given to this and that whatever they did wrong, either by mistake or whatever, they will have fix and that should be that.
Free Republic will go on, the canteen will go on, Proud Patriots will go on, Clown Posse will go on, Liberty Post will go on, yadda yadda, and so on and so forth. I will go on, and yes, so will you.
After I was banned from FR, I had no desire to try and make a place for myself at LP or LU or at the Clown Posse, I prefer to discuss the issues and not the people discussing the issues. But, if I had to choose between them Merc, I guess I’d choose the Clown Posse and not that anti-Semetic, anti-American cesspool you call home.
Obviously you’ve put a lot of time and effort into researching where I post, so you must know that I am very active on Jewish boards. Perhaps you’ve seen some of the discussions about how Liberty Post is a hate site, filled with people who talk about destroying Israel and killing Jews. You'll talk about what I posted on MightyRighty, but not that, why?
Should I judge you by the company you keep and the places you lend your support to? Perhaps you should think about what people think when they see your name linked to such things, and how Jewish people feel when they come and see that on a site that you support.
So, someone on MR talked about switching out a hotlinked graphic for porn, hmmm… I guess you think I’m the only person on internet who ever did such a thing? Sorry Merc, but she can do whatever she chooses to punish a thief, if you have a problem about it, why not register at MightyRighty and take up the issue with her? Why talk about it here and why make it an issue in this?
Liberty Post is full of posts about people hitting on FR and burning a “screen name” just to tell someone off because they’re mad. Its okay for you and your friends to get pissed off but not me? Okay then. And while we are on the subject, the photo on Clown Posse that they suggested Tonkin use for his avatar is more pornographic then what I used, but, that’s okay because they posted it. I see a tad of hypocrisy there, but, its their board and they can do as they please.
To you, and to everyone else here, I would say, Judge not, lest you be judged.
TxRadioGuy has always treated me with kindness and fairness, he was of a few who avoided jumping to conclusions about me based on what he “read on the internet” and yes, I would consider him a friend, I always have, and I always will. If he responded in an ugly manner, I guess he did so in response to ugly things, and if I learned one thing from my banning from FR, it would be that its best to avoid posting when you’re angry.
So, I’ve about had my fill of this issue and I’ve given way more time then it deserves.
