Why would I? It didn't involve you at all. You pm'ed me twice in the past ..once you did when SW2 kept trying to harass me so much...the second was when I said something on the board during the whole NatGat affair. I sent you a pm once after B and SJ said you were posting like Blueskies....I wrote and said that I thought it was funny..thats it. After that is when I saw you were being accussed of posting under two names. I didn't say you were...I have no idea if you were or not...but you were getting accussed of it. As far as I know it was your houseguest like you said. I also don't care about NatGat and any involvement or issues you have with them....thats not my concern. Just like my issue with Carla not being your concern,...right? See my point? Thats why I made a reference. I was also pointing out the fact that you have had disagreements with people as well....so I could say the same of you..that you could be partially responsible for them as well. It takes more then one to have a disagreement and any and all involved in one bare the responsibility....don't they? I've never said I am always right and I've never claimed to not share in responsibity of a disagreement...I have walked away and ignored numerous attempts some have made to lure me into one though. ...more times then you know. Anyway... most of the things you addressed were not my main points of discussion but I can understand why you focused on them in your response.Arianddu wrote:Blueskies wrote:Arianddu wrote:I'm sorry Phyllis, I've agreed with you so far in this thread, but this is more than a little hypocritical. Carla made a fair point - you have been criticising others for behaviour you yourself have shown on more than one occasion. I remember that episode, and I remember telling you in a PM that I thought some people were being unfair to you, but that you were being unfair to Carla too. You made some very rude, uninformed pronouncements about Carla and Rip, when you didn't know what the situation was. You didn't apologise to Carla, you sent an apology via a third person in a PM, for a very public criticism. And by doing that, you certainly didn't give Carla any situation in which to apologise for anything she may have said (although as I recall, she didn't say anything that wasn't justified by your public behaviour.)
I don't think Carla has said anything that could be construed as holding a grudge; she has pointed out that you have made the same error you have been harping on about in this thread. I agree with what you have said about judging people by their looks being wrong, but it didn't need to be said half a dozen times, and in such a patronising way.
I don't like how some people treat you, Phyllis, and I have said so, both publically and privately, to several people, and I think you have justifiable reasons to be annoyed with certain people on this board. But you don't help yourself by setting yourself up as the moral judge and Miss Manners of MR, especially when making pronouncements on something you yourself have been guilty of. Carla had every right to call you out on your hypocrisy, and I'm calling you on it again. You are owed many apologies by some people on this board, but you also owe several yourself.
1.) Why are you interjecting yourself into this?

10.) I like to write.
I've known many people who can ad 2 and 2 and make 5, but you manage to make 15!![]()

But on a few issues:
No, I didn't have a conversation about you and Carla - I sent you one PM giving you support when SteveW2 was giving you a hard time, and mentioned that I thought you were wrong in what you were saying about Carla.
I've never made the mistake of thinking ANYONE thought you and I were the same person - you made that assumption, and sent me a PM to tell me so. I thought it was a jokey insult, because I do make the odd long post. And I treated it as a joke, just like I've been treating the 'big head' comments as a joke. I take very few people's comments or insults seriously, on-line at least.
Of course you are entitled to post your opinion. Everyone is. Part of that is that people also have a right to say you are being hypocritical.
I don't need to make myself popular. There are a few people here I am friends with, a few I am not, and mostly people I don't know anything about beyond what they post on the boards. I talk and joke with my friends, and try (sometimes not successfully) to ignore the people I do not like. I don't have to jump on anyone's bandwagon. If half a dozen people start saying the same thing independently of each other, it's time to start thinking about what's triggering that response.
My issues with Angel/ScarabGator are no one's business but mine and the other people involved. What happens on WTF has nothing to so with this board. I don't have a feud with anyone, I DO thoroughly disapprove of certain games that have been played by certain people. You don't know what they are, because you aren't involved and therefore it is none of your business. I've told people before, if they want to know what is going on, I will tell them by PM, because it's not up for public discussion. I don't air my dirty laundry in public, and I avoid taking my fights to the boards. Sometimes that is not possible.
As for posting as two people, give me a break!
Hey, you can say anything you want..call me hypocritical or whatever....doesn't make you right though...and if I disagree with your opinion I will .....and I will speak to my side of things. I have never said anyone has to agree with me on anything...I've just said I have the same right to my opinions as anyone else has. You can think whatever you want to....quite frankly I don't think anyone really cares what anybody thinks on here.
Everyone much of the time talk at each other and not really to each other.
If I'm so bad then why in the world did you try to come on to me so much? Go ahead and deny it but you and I both know you did. You know thats the pm you are referring to. You are just not my type.. I do not like foul mouthed ,vulgar acting men...I like nice guys who act like a gentleman...so I brushed you off but you still continued ...which is what led to the argument.
I remember when several people here said they were going to pretend in pm to BS/TVL to either be her friend, or try to come on to her,we all bet that she would think these people would actually be interested in her and on several occasions she has not disappointed.Hell, i know of at least one person that still has her strung along and has been doing it for months.
Thats gotta be one of the longest running pranks in MR history,TVL/BS has been falling for it for months
And this is supposed to make Blueskies/Phyllis look bad? It shows you and your friends in the worst possible light IMO...that makes pond scum look more attractive than "these people".
