Leaving AD

Beowulf said:
When you threaten to leave a forum, you are really trying to escape from yourself. You just do not want to deal with it. That happens.
We are so damned fortunate in having this forum, where we could get along or have knife fights.
Peace.
You guys rock.

Who said I want to leave a forum, hmm ? Show me where you find it that I said ?
 
Lol, Angel, you silly goose.
I am guilty of doing that a couple times.
The great thing about this forum is that is is hard to get banned.
I think I should have been, to tell the truth.
*shaking my head*
But you see, Angel? I was not talking about you.
God help me if I do, the tsunami of protests will fucking kill me.
 
DD,

Read it again below that I have stated earlier. I know there's someone who stated about certain members to which that I am NOT goin' to name who. It's the reason why I don't want to make friends within this AD. These certain members harrassed the ones who stated about 2 faced or liar about me in their messenger behind their screens -- just because of these person who happened to agree with my comments in some of my posts and THAT person is their friend. Geez whiz... What have I done to make them harrassin' against me ? Was it just because, someone happened to agree with my opinions ? That's somethin' I don't appreciate. It needs to knock off. And, of course you can't see it just because of this computer is maskin' their faces. I can tell and feel that it does happen sooo often times. It is why it makes some certain members to leave. So, there ~ I gotta to go and finish remodelin' in my new house. Take care ! :bye:

Well, that's their business if, they want to leave. There's nothin' you can do -just because, someone might have said that some certain members are so called " bare face lie " or say " 2 faces" after gettin' to know some certain members.

In response to Cheri's post:

No, I feel it does not belong there or warrants saying - everyone has the right to make a thread in which topic he/she feels important - if someone says lock or delete this thread, he/she is saying that the thread is not important to HIM/HER and therefore, it should be deleted. It makes the person who made the thread feel insignificant, demeaned or not important in the scheme of things...on the other hand, the person that makes the thread DOES not have the right to say that other people CANNOT have a voice in his/her thread and therefore should stay out of it.

So the fact is...you have to know what to say - you cannot make the person that wants to post feel that he/she cannot say anything, yet that person posting cannot say hey, this thread has no place being here, let's tell the administrator or the moderator to lock or delete this thread.

I know, I know, it can end up being a catch-22, but YOU have to know what to say in a way that will not make other people feel bad, yet you have to be diplomatic in saying something that you know will hurt somone.

It's hard, but, hey, who said life was easy???

What if someone made a thread and several members said "Moderators, Please lock this thread, It has no purposed" Does that belong there? Or do you call that being selfish? :mrgreen:

Locking a thread is fine if the creator requests it.

Only in extreme cases - if a thread is getting out of hand, or unmanageable, or flaming is happening over and over...

Ive noticed that some people has said lock this thread, it serves no useful purposes - THAT I feel, is not warranted if it is not coming from the person that made the thread in the first place.

That I feel, is RUDE, and shows no respect for the person that made the thread.

Cyber,

Sorry bout you missed my point - I know what you're talking about, but that particular situation I do not know anything about, since I was not online during the weekend - I have no way to get on during the weekend nor have the desire to do that...I work with computers ALL week and its nice to have a break during the weekends...

I was talking in the general sense of things - I had quite a FEW emails, AIM messages, text messages, and so on... about different things going on and people wanted to resign or quit left and right last weekend and NOT about your situation only, there were quite a few other stuff going on too, so sorry, you didnt figure very high in the sense of that ...and Ive seen it going on and on since I became a member in 2003.

That's why I said, in other words, cool down. That's all. Try to have respect for your fellow postwhore. Try to have respect for the moderators. Try to have respect for the owner/administrator. Try to think twice before you post...its like in carpentry - measure TWICE before you cut, cuz the wrong measurement could make the shelves tilt tot he right when you're finished, and your favorite coffee cup could slide off and shatter on the floor.

In other words, just the wrong post, just one incorrect word, will send AllDeaf up in flames again. And again. And again, and so on, ad nauseum.

That's what Im trying to say - before you resign or send a flame, sit back and think. Keep a cool head. It's not worth it when you have to argue and flame back and forth - I did it one time and it was NOT worth it. I got my ass burned and so I took, I think, about a month off and it was well worth it.

So, my dear Cyberbyte, it's not just about you. It's about everyone else in general.

Like I said, if you wanna believe what you've said, you're free to do so. And good luck with your new house! It sounds like it's gonna be GREAT!!!
 
Good Lordly DD, I thought you were leaving AD too....YOU sure got my attention there....Good one btw :ily: ...

Everything you said is so TRUE, and I absolutely agree with you there my dearest friend :hug:

btw, you should become the next moderator! :naughty:
 
Oh jeeeez, Is Vamp threatening to leave too?
*Twilight Zone music*

LOL, you silly I don't think there's a limit of moderators to have in here! :o
 
My dear Angel -

thank you for those kind words...although I don't think I should be a mod...I tend to jump from the frying pan into the fire, I would win first prize in the jumping to conclusions competitions, lead the way in temper tantrums, be the one pointed out as the poster child for pouting, I also tend to miss the mark more often than I hit the bull's eye (haven't you wondered how RR manages to escape???), and also come to a screeching halt in conversations?

In other words, if I became a MOD, I wouldnt be able to
FIREdevil.gif
Vampy, be able to lock RR in his favorite closet, call LinuxGold Saint LinuxGold in my twisted Xmas songs, and lampoon Alex...

In other words, I would become just another

MOD.

Smiles, my dear Angel!!!!

Awww DD! I was thinking the same, that YOU should be the moderator. I agree with you that it takes a certain person with right personality and temperament (Sp?) to be able to handle the stressful job of moderator. I really loved the gentle way of your wordings to explain to us and to clarifying what's been happening and gently making suggestions on how to make things better here. Which is why I love you for the way you are. :ily: Just what if...you give it a few months trial of moderatoring and see how it works temporarily, and see if you can handle your emotion and keep it separated professional-wise? And when you have some issues with some ADers, you could talk with Alex or other moderators for feedbacks and support...as a team. (Sorry, I just had to try...with bended knee on the floor)
 
Aww my Peachy....

:blush:

But will I still be able to ...

FIREdevil.gif
Vampy?

Will I still be able to lock RR in the closet?

Will I be able to twist St. LinuxGold into another twisted Xmas song?

Will I be able to lampoon Alex?

Will I be able to "E" E?

Will I be able to ask where Wazoo is?

I love picking on the MODS and their BossMan...heh heh.
 
I'm so pissed off! ><

I QUIT AD! GOOD BYE!!!







Just kidding... :D anyway, well written thread, of course.
 
Well-said, DD.

I agree with you 100 percent! :gpost:

I noticed that some of alldeaf members said that i quit or i am leaving as :mad: and :pissed:

What is their purpose to leaving alldeaf? to get attention from others and make them beg as :bowdown: ? Just let her or him go and will feel sorry later.
Next, a member left alldeaf for while (days or weeks) and come back. Later, some of alldeaf member said "I am Back!" What is that? That is :crazy:

That make some of alldeaf member Lied to Everyone in Alldeaf which that person never said "I need a break" or "I am leaving for while and come back soon" That is Honest answer and everyone will know and will wait for her or him to come back. :liar:

For Example: The girlfriend told her boyfriend "I will leaving you" and :bye: But, she come back to her boyfriend "I am sorry" and "I love you". She try to brainwash her boyfriend's mind and make him feel sorry for her. He let her come back to have a realtionship again.Is that Game?
Yes! It is like some of alldeaf member put on Game on others' mind which they might believe their words but found out that they come back in Alldeaf like :ugh:
Will they believe their words next time? That is their choice.

I sometime feel that some of alldeaf member want to take a control and make feel so good about himself or herself. For what? Don't need that. That is not helping or make him or her feel so powerful in alldeaf than MODS. She or He need to think others as friends to listen and read their posts as freedom speech. If you don't like it, just leave or ingore. Don't need bash, insult, judgement, and put them down. It is not help that person to stop come back to Alldeaf and will always type their own words to speak. Nothing for you stop or control him or her. Some of alldeaf members have no control to ban person or make person leave for good but only MODS period! Respect Alldeaf members and MODS as Equal.
