My take on this foolishness. It would have been nice to have been told why I was banned. Would have been nice if I had been given the chance to say good-bye to some people who I enjoyed. But this privlege was not given to me. I would have left anyway, don't want anyone to think that they have the right to change any part of any word I post. It's just not right.
I am not going to take part in any of this foolishness. And folks, it's all foolish. How about you all judge each other based on how each of you treats the other? If you don't want to speak to someone don't. Easy as that.
Now, take it from someone who is dealing with a very sick husband. Life can change in an instant and you see what really matters. Try being kind. Shiny has always been kind to me and that is all I will say on that subject.
I suggest you all try a little kindness, say I'm sorry and get on with it.

Nice post. And my thoughts go with your husband at this time. And you are correct, let's move on, and start some discussion posts that we can go back and forth with.... any ideas?

"Okay but I didn't see spunky say anything about no one on the other board commenting about this situation until yesterday & being quite impressed with tgar fact. I definitely read several comments, many of them insults about posters who were banned. Maybe ones ideology prevents one from recognizing insults when said by people one agrees with. Maybe?"

"It could be ideology SEC. Go back to 8/9 on the other threads where it started and take a look. Like I said before, I had been reading the posts all week before I made the mistake of saying something. I really don't want to continue rehashing this. I spoke my opinion about it and that is that."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm also posting my opinions. And my opinion is that posters have been discussing the mass bannings on BOTH boards since Monday the 10th.. Several posters on the Refugee board wanted to know what happened & why so many people had "banned" under their names..They were told to check their personal messages..Some said they did & they had nothing..
.Teacher said she enjoyed posting on a board with diverse ideas & said if all those people had been banned, she wqs logging off..Someone asked her if she was logging off for the night or for good.
.XOre wrote " I feel a peace and calm now. The bickering is gone. They're here reading, but nothing much is going on over there."
. Keep wrote " No more having to sensor everything we post and worry about being jumped on. It's like any bad thing that happened..it happened..we can now move on and the last thing we can and should, imo do is forget about them. Don't give them the satisfaction of talking about them anymore..it;'s a new day and we are all blessed..jmo"
. billy wrote: " I don't think it was really about being liberal or conservative as much as it was about being two faced"
Now ALL of those comments have been deleted....WHY?
I have acknowledged that posters on both boards are venting...But I don't believe ONE comment has been deleted from this board & 2 days of comments were deleted from the refugee board & therein lies the problem....The ONLY thing I am commenting on is your ststement that they were NOT discussing the mass bannings before yesterday..I KNOW tha's not true & they are definitely STLL commenting today...(which is their right)

bjeje, ITA and that is exactly what I said when I came back to the View board after taking care of my sister until her death. Life is too short to spend it bickering on a MB..That's why when it was obvious that some only wanted to argue with me, I blocked them & NEVER responded to them It made posting a lot more pleasurable for me..and even after being banned on the refugee board, my only desire was to say goodbye..Not until I realized that the Administrator had trolled my name did I try to do something about it & that is the ONLY reason, I registered as callalilly..If her email had worked, I would have told her what I had to say in an email...Since you had to post 3 comments before you could private message someone, I did that..I ONLY contacted the Administer. She took it upon herself to share the letter with others & ban everyone..
I knew when I signed in as callalilly that some would know it was me..I wasn't hiding anything...If I could have registered as SEC4ever I would have..I NEVER intended to post on that board,My only intent was to tell the Administrator to STOP with the manipulation...
As, I told someone today, people don't owe anyone on a public MB their entire life story..What is a fraud anyway? No ones username is their real name so why are some so obsessed with who someone is..I had 4 different usernames on the View MB & each time I changed, I had a reason & it was approved by Steve & I NEVER used two names at one time & imo. Steve is the ONLY person who had a right to know so the board detective could ask all the questions she wanted, it was none of her business! Everything I talked about happened to ME, not my username but ME..so if you want to call me a fraud so be it..and if shiny is a fraud..She's the kindest fraud I 've encountered & I'd rather deal with her being a fraud than the "real" nasty bunch that turned the View MB into a warzone...If anyone is interested in my other 2 usernames PM me, & I will gladly tell you.

Sec, you owe me no explaination. You have been trolled and you must deal as you and only you see fit. I would be mad as hell too. I have no need to know any other usernames, don't care. If they are nice to me, then I will converse with them. LOL
This was my second response to you, first one locked up my computer and I had to restart. Doesn't look good for me posting long!
By the way all, I have a hard time figuring out these emojis (or whatever they are called) don't know if someone is laughing at me or clapping. There was one that I thought was a bee hive with bees flying around that someone told me what poop with flies!

Thanks SEC.. I was a bit shocked when I read your letter, but not actually surprised by what happened, and truly understand how you feel. We are going to move on and those that chose NOT to defend us...can just live with it. It's not worth it anymore.
___________________________
@bje..great post, my heart goes out to you and your strength...and I agree...we are moving on here...its over and done with and now we know the truth. Family and good friends even on the web are what's important.
____________________________
And to those reading this that are on the other side...and didn't stand up for those banned and bullied...shame on you!
Since you choose to stay there and be manipulated, then you are in agreement with what happened to us that were banned and you are just like the rest........Farewell, au revoir, adios..... Enjoy reading our posts!

Lol. I guess we are. when I get home tonight I'm gonna tell my fiance that I'm a swinger and see what he says.
I must say... you ladies crack me up! I love your fun sense of humour! I now wish I'd of gotten to know you all more on the original View Message Board. But now I can get to know all of you on this board. I'm glad I was allowed to join the forum. Everyone is so nice, and so sweet. I think I chose the right forum to belong to. So far I am loving this board, and all who post here!
