THE BITCH IS BACK

Hi Guys and Gals,

Nice to know that ya all missed me. I was never far away. I did manage to finish Mississippi's chainmail vest, so you had all better watch out. He may pop up anywhere.

Andrew Pack, were you one of the people who e-mailed Mississippi with nasty insults? I have it from the horses' mouth that he was driven from this site with PRIVATE e-mails, it seems that there are a few cowards on this forum who are willing to hide behind false names, (couldn't spell pseudonym). Shame on you all, those of you who perpertrated in this kind of cowardly behaviour.

I have not contirbuted to the forum for awhile now, as it has become basically a fan club for (we'll read your story if you'll read mine). Should anyone dare rate anything with anything less than "Oh you are so brilliant" then that person is ridiculed and subjected to vilification by the rest of the "CLUB".

With regards "cherries etc" (Yawn, yes, yet again"), in my opinion a writer should be able to take the reader into their work, their emotion, their pain, their happiness. That's what does it for me everytime. Antoinette, is a fabulous illustration of this. Mississippis' poem about his lost love is another. Perhaps if we all read some more and criticised a lot less, this forum could become a great place to talk with friends instead of "ENEMIES". At the end of the day we are striving for the same thing, "AREN'T WE"?

PS Every writer thinks in their heart that what they have written is brilliant, it is to them. What truly makes it brilliant is when someone else tells you, not when you tell them!!!

AJ :>)

I am totally against a moderator! What you see is what we are. Who is able to moderate who will not be subjective? In the end this is not a compulsory site, it's a side issue to the main posting site, which is creative writing. This discussion site works because we are getting to know eachother the way `we` want to. That's the point. It will change when the contributors decide to change it, if the majority wants to, thats democracy. If there are a few prats, pratting about, people let them know it. Anyway, as it has been proven, one person's prat is another person's genius!

Mark, if it's any comfort (which I'm sure it isn't!), I'm totally against a moderator too. What did we do all that fighting in the late 60s for, after all?

Um , AJ, what on EARTH are you on about? WHY are Robert and Ivory and Muzzy and Andrew and Liana and anyone else who joins in HORRIBLE? They make me LAUGH. They're not hurting anyone. Infact they're the best thing about the discussion forum. Pretentious twattedness is the limit of my capabilities, so it's WONDERFUL to be able to read people who are quick witted and hilarious off the top of their heads. For goodness sake, that was surely what Mississippi liked about the site too?

Hi all, Let's get this back on track. 1) Mississippi knew what he was doing when he subjected himself to the open forum. (he gave as good as he got). What he wasn't prepared for were the nasty anonymous e-mails that he received. 2) Now go and read my first posting on this thread. Re:read it and instead of automatically going on the warpath, digest the content. I have, hence the apology to Andrew. He deserved it. 3) I named Antoinette, Mr e and Andrew because they seemed to want this e-mail war to stop. 4) Stormy: There is another old adage, ("if the cap fits"). Everyone on this forum is as guilty as the next. Why? Because the more vitriolic it became, the more posts it had. It seems to me that it doesn't really matter who fires that arrow, just as long as it's not aimed at us. However, when that arrow gets too close for comfort, we scream: ENOUGH. I hope that makes sense it does to me. 5) Finally we are all here for the same reason, writing. And I for one am going to pop off now and do just that. AJ :>)

It was you that screamed AJ. I just tried to inject a bit of logic and sense. We did read your first post. The latest responses were in reply to you when you 'went on the warpath' in your post last night. Whoever you are trying to get at is not in this thread. Mark? Well said. BTW. I tried the cap on but it didn't fit. I have a double four tonight.

Auntie, I agree...lets be positive and smile.....it gives an enormous sense of well being. Criticism is great when well meaning...too much time is wasted in negative emotion..it's bad for the spirit. Best wishes Matt

Hi Andrew, I apologise unreservedly if I gave the opinion that I thought you were one of the "nasty" e-mailers, it wasn't my intention to do so. The e-mailers were anonymous so obviously you couldn't have been one of THEM. Shakes hands and smiles somewhat sheepishly. AJ :>)

Hi Matt, Nice to meet you. Thanks for your positive reaction to this thread. I sort of gather by the wall of silence that it's had, that there maybe some heads hanging in shame!!!! You know who you are. AJ :>)
