non-mods in the mod forum

Well, the way I see it, if others have the time and energy to spend thinking about me in a negative way, then I must have left quite an impression. Think of it as "free rent" in someone else's head and how sad it is for those who CHOOSE to give me that power.

I recently had an event happen to me, so powerful and exciting that I was almost paralyzed to tell the one person that I have always shared my thoughts and feelings with. I CHOOSE to let all of the worse case scenarios run through my head, hence the saying "free rent" or "taking up space" in my own head.

I just spoke with her 30 minutes ago, and yes, the conversation went as badly as i thought it was, not because I projected it that way. It was my own fear of her rejection and or disapproval that my procrastination got in the way, and she found out from another source.

Implied rejection can be very powerful as can denial.....and the bottom line is, Who gives a fig what other's think. If I live a good life of honesty and integrity, than the nay sayers can go fly a kite. Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind!

I have agree with what Laura and also what Sammy said, The way I see it is if you aren't paying my bills, fixing my meals, or cleaning my cages, Then what you think of me doesn't matter. And If you don't like me, Well that will be one less trip to the mail box, I guess I won't be getting a Christmas Card
from you .....BOO HOO.

I hope I live my life in such a way that people can respect me for who I am as a person, but I don't worry whether people like me or not.

I worked with a guy long ago who disliked me to no end. It was just a personality clash more than anything. I remember one day on break we were out having a smoke and we got to talking. He said something along the lines to me of.... "I would really like to be able to call you a punk, but you aint a punk, our personal differences aside you are a stand up guy". I dont remember that guys name anymore, but I have never forgotten his words.

Just for clarity's sake let me say this.

This thread isn't about WHAT is being said, but the fact that it is being said in a place that is only open to a certain few by a certain few who had a tizzy fit when the same thing, roughly, happened to her/them.

Content ain't the point, principle is.

Let's not further confuse the two.

There are people that do that stuff?? I need to find one or three - would sure make my life a whole lot easier.

I'd settle for just one, I ain't greedy.

Wes, I agree back to topic at hand.....

Which is, as I understand it, I

was wondering if there was any particular reason why lucille is still able to access the mod forum?

And I think the only real answer was already given by Sammy:

It is Rich's site and he has the right to allow permissions and access to specific areas to anyone he sees fit.

Everyone can determine whether allowing Lucille to access the mod forum, or Lucille's statements in the mod forum, reflect on Lucille or Rich.

As far as Wes being the topic of conversation....well, most of the people who wish to be derogatory to Wes lack the cajones to do it one-on-one with him. That's been known for a long while. The fact that someone is doing it behind his back is no surprise.

I don't suppose that any of you noticed that Lucille actually IS a mod on this site. She is a mod of her own personal forum.

There you go Wes, for the tidy sum of $50.00, you too can moderate your own forum and rub elbows with the elite in the private Mod forum.
