[shrap]

Do you honestly think the game you are playing now is not completely transparent to everyone who reads this thread?

 

[Cat_72]

Of course, Sam. I should expect this sort of reply from you. I don't bite and give you the fight you want, so you question my grasp on reality. Predictable. -yawn-

Shadera, we simpy asked for PROOF. If it truly has happened, they would deserve to be called out on it. I just don't believe it has happened. Your claiming that request as an attack is well, not realistic, therefore the questioning of grasp on reality.

I'll give you the Wicca thing. Crystals, maybe but you're pushing the envelope calling that a religion. You will notice that no one has been derisive about either of those. I do not equate crystals to Guardian stones with spirits trapped in them. The rest of the crap she is spewing is fair game as far as i am concerned if she is expecting to be taken seriously.

Thank you for the clarification, John. I meant crystals in combination with Wicca, sorry for any misunderstanding there. I had not read any of her stuff that was dredged up to sling mud at her, so I didn't know the crystals being referred to supposedly had spirits in them according to her. I guess that would seem odd to the 'normal' folks. That's a little farfetched maybe even for the super open minded. I still don't agree with her being made fun of, but I do see where people might think a screw or two is loose.

Still waiting on that proof from MagikalMorphs on her accusations that Fauna Moderators attack people over their religious beliefs. Still waiting.

 

[Shadera]

Like I said, Sam, I'm not getting into it. Anyone with access to the hell forum can read the thread and draw their own conclusions. Being a Wiccan, I see some ugly things going on there, and I don't like it. I don't believe in most of the stuff that's being discussed, but I don't appreciate the insinuations that people who believe other than what the main stream crams down our throats are mentally ill in some way. Seriously man, take a valium and mellow out, you're way too eager for a fight. That's my final thoughts here.

I'm not saying I agree with anything else that has been said, and I usually just go with the flow, but I think in this day and age attacks against someone's religion should be off limits no matter who you are. To me that's the same as slewing racist comments. Not everyone is a Christian, and just because someone has different beliefs than you do doesn't mean you should rip them apart over it. Who cares what others believe as long as it doesn't affect you.

And true to the pack nature of this place, I'm getting ripped apart even for bringing it up. Yes, let's run off everyone who doesn't think the same way we do!

Rich moved this thread to the BOI.

 

[Mooing Tricycle]

Asking you to provide proof to back up your accusations is attacking you?

This is why i complained about sugarcoating in my other thread, just because someone is questioned, or spoken sternly to, they go off the deep end thinking its an attack, when in reality, if the members here were given the time to be understood, i think most would see that, hey, maybe its just that persons nature.

Everyone always wants things all happy and hunky dory. I think its silly and fake. Anyway... back to the thread.

I think that she was speaking about the threads made in hell. I could be mistaken on that though, since i think thats where most people are joking about the vampire thing and such.

 

[Dennis Hultman]

Do tell, which mods?

That would be me. But, I will stand firm that being a blood sucking vampire isn't a religious belief. Or is it?

Shadera, I made a joke about the above and included a point about spells and also stated that it was a stereotypical view. It was noway an attack on your religion. Sorry, if you were offended. Apparently, it wasn't funny.

 

[shrap]

Would the following even qualify as "stern"?

Come on, back that up with some proof.

Because that is all I said before being told I was attacking her.

LOL nope, not in my book. But i suppose its because i have thicker skin?

I dont see any attacks here. Maybe several people chiming in on it, but thats what happens in a public forum. and maybe some can see it as "attacking" but hey, if you are sensitive to what everyone thinks, dont post in the first place in a public setting.

I'd still like to know what this has to do with what Slurpie said....far as I can tell, not a dang thing.

Whew! There's a thread gone astray! LOL Back to the Reptster poll and the response from the Reptster rep...

Out of about 14 choices on that poll. NINE are either a slap to Reptster in the face or a thumbs up to the BOI. THREE are a positive for Reptster.

I particularly love how they are worded...

Everyone knows or suspects if they do answer positives for Reptster. The mods here will see who voted that way and more than likely spread it and cause attacks on them.


Maybe Ford could start a poll just for their employees on which vehicle they would they buy?

Internal Ford Poll:
I would buy a Toyota - and would risk losing my job?
I would buy a Honda - and would risk losing my job?
I would buy a Chevy - and would risk losing my job?
I AM GOING TO BUY a FORD - I love FORD and would not drive anything else

I will grant you that the options and wording of a poll have a great deal of impact on how one should interpret the results. And I'll even agree that the wording and options on this particular poll aren't really all that helpful. But what the hell does that have to do with the mods of this site or how this site is run???

Your instant assumption that the mods would take this "hidden" information and use it against the members says a LOT about how things are likely run at your place. Steve....In the past, I have seen you take facts and twist them around into something completely unrecognizable and then use that "new truth" to try and manipulate people and events for your benefit. I honestly don't see anything different about this Reptster business and you. And the fact that David relies so heavily on YOU to represent him says a lot about HIM as well.

When I first heard that he'd brought you on as an admin (or whatever you are) of his forum, I was deeply concerned...but tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he simply didn't know any better. Can't do that anymore.

 

[WebSlave]

Rich moved this thread to the BOI.

Yes, I did. This was originally posted in the general business discussion forum, NOT HELL.

Please note the topic focus of this thread and make a SINCERE effort to pull things back in order here. Anything not ON topic will be considered to be OFF topic and warning points will be issued accordingly. If that still does not suffice to end the WAY off topic posting, then "vacations" from this site will be in store for the offenders.

Maybe you should post a poll on your site with a link to the thread and include just 3 positive BOI options? Think David would be on board with that, given the booming business and waves of support we've been hearing about?

Suggestions for options include "I totally think it is ok and ethical to back out of a deal and shaft the other person after two months of receiving at least some benefits" and "Jokes and insults = incontrovertible proof".

Let me know when it goes up, I'll vote for in that one as well.

I just sold a snake which the buyer asked me to ship through RIPster. The price included shipping, and he suggested I could save some $$ shipping that way. I very respectfully told him that due to some recent customer service issues I've seen, I did not feel comfortable using their service. I'll pay a couple extra bucks to ship, but my piece of mind is worth it! Also, the tactful way we can decline to use their service need not cost anything in the way of either sales or integrity.

Why thank you, sugar pie. I've been doing polls for a while now.
You can, however, make up your own poll if you get the notion.


I do not think it would matter what choices you put into it, I think a bunch of folks have already seen you for what you are, and just as they have done on this thread, they would offer their honest opinions.

There are enough eyes in the BOI so that you cannot pull the wool over all of them, which probably explains your dislike for the forum.

Steven,

You are acting like a kook. Really. I would guess you are an unpaid, volunteer moderator for Reptster. Why would you muddy yourself by being a mouthpiece for a scumbag? I would guess you have spent a lot of money on snakes (except the Pied). I would guess you want to be able to sell snakes in the future. These people that you are crapping on may be (or may not be anymore) your future customers. Just some food for thought.
