I have come to notice however that you, BJG, have very definite opinions on things that matter to you. Mad has his opinions which he feels strongly about too. The one difference I see however, is that you get very aggresive, hostile and beligerent. You demand that Mad be shut down. What gives you the right to behave like this. I don't see him responding back to you in a like manner. You don't like his tone, fine, move on, don't read his post, but no, you get right out of control, and become abusive. If anyone needs a reprimand, you come to mind first. Grow up and get a grip, this is supposed to be fun.
Go somewhere else if you can't play nice.

2 months here and you're telling
me to go somewhere else? Wrong. I have ALWAYS played nice on this forum, avoided the drama, and gotten along very well with people, apart from several random and not real important debates that I can count on
one hand with digits to spare. For two years I have gotten along with basically everyone here, and I've met a very large number of them in person, and made really awesome friends, so don't even think about calling me out.
I've not said anything different to or about madsplash that the majority has also been saying for months now, and I was a whole lot nicer than some others have been, and as I stated, I
rarely if ever say things like that to people here and this whole board can tell you that. Fact is, that attitude of his is seriously getting on peoples' nerves and I'm damn sure not the only one who has said it, and that's been going on for at least four months, that I can recall.
I'm not even about to have drama here. This is beyond lame.
Thanks for your response, it just screams attitude. Point made. I am not suggesting you go somewhere else, but rather lighten up, chill out, take a qualude, have a cup of tea...........stop the ranting.

They don't make Quaalude's anymore.

I haven't heard that in ages.
BJG is one of the best posters on this site. She usually doesn't go after someone unless she's had it up to her eye lids, and apparently she has.

She's as cool as a cucumber usually though. Just let her vent and all will be well.

I've done the same. Haven't I MS?

Something I love about BJG, she gets upset tells you what the bug is up her chimney, and moves on. She holds no grudges, and gets it out of her craw. I think I have had a butt chewing by her in the beginning come to think of it, probably deserved it.
With every butt chewing I got, I learned something new, and about people on this site. When I have asked newbies to get to know people before getting upset, it is because there are things about each poster here that you cannot learn overnight. The vets have earned their stripes, and even if they come across harsh, sometimes they are trying to do you a favor.
Rockindeano has busted my chops a few times

, Rick, Rip, and Finalfight taught me to take it easy, get to know folks here. I have disagreed with folks here, and still do on some things, but I cannot say I hate anyone.
Sometimes people tell you things here to help you learn to navigate through this site smoother, and with fewer scars to show from it!
Cheekymonkey, BJG is a golden lady, I have a great deal of respect for her. If she is mad at me she tells me, and not in third person either, I have had people talk about me in third person, like I don't exist, or I cannot fathom they are talking about me

And I am not talking about you when I say that either, I don't think you and I have had any problems to date.........that I am aware of!
This site is wonderful, such deep personalities, and passionate oppinions. I have given madsplash a hard time, but not because I hate him, it is because his persistance wears me thin sometimes. I am glad he is on to talking chocolate with us........always room to grow!
