I don't think it will be locked. The message that is trying to be conveyed is that pointless, personal attacks are not appreciated. There is still plenty of latitude to have fun here. But if fun for some is limited to abusing other members, then it will not continue to be fun for those members that practice this.

Quoting girleegirl: Quoting KeithL: Maybe I have not read enough threads, but from what I see, whenever Alemeda posts something, the same people find a reason to be critical of her and her post.
I don't think Peacetrain posting a positive statement about Alemeda deserves the kind of response that you posted Tea. From my chair, very rude.... |
How is it that you would find teas post to be rude but you don't find peace trains to be rude? 
Quoting karpusqueen:
Lighten up everyone and stop using this issue as a stick to beat someone with. I'm sure the site advises that links be posted when appropriate anyway. |
Quoting teaschip1:
So why don't you take your own advice and lighten up yourself Peace Train.... |
From my chair, a double standard... |
Dear GG
My comment was a general one teaschip's was personal . . . and besides . . . her tone was all wrong 
So please, calm down dear
Another point I would like to make is that I agree with Keith, everytime Alameda posts something the same old clan come out and respond to her posts with such a scathing tone at times. OK so you don't need educating, don't take the posts so personally, other people reading the posts but not participating may find them useful. Alameda is not doing any harm at all, it's simply her style. We're all different. You don't have to read the links, just ignore them. I just don't see the point in sniping about them . . . it's unkind.
( Be my guest and do your worst with the above)

It certainly is GG..it seems to be a continual problem with Keith..double standards. He can attack Israel, but anyone defends Palestein...we are anti-islam and anti-turkish.. If someone tells us to lighten up on Alameda and we clearly have not be critical on this post..but defend ourselves we are being rude...
I really hold little value or respect for such a mod...no kudos here. |
There's absolutely nothing wrong with disagreeing with somebody's point of view but why oh why do some people think there is value in criticising someone for providing links?
This thread is getting to look like a kindergarten and I know for a fact that Catwoman hates such activity (  )

Quoting teaschip1: Quoting KeithL: Quoting teaschip1: Why post your opinion alameda if you have little interest in this topic? Doesn't make sense, unless you wanted to get a reaction. But on second thought you stated you didn't care to participate in debating. 
For the record, I have taken away more from this site from other classmates regarding various religions & politics than reading a link or googleing.  |
This is where it starts. This thread had been moving along without Teaschip's involvement. Her first post into this thread had nothing to do with the topic being discussed. Her only intent was to jump in and say something negative about Alameda. This is rude and childish behavior. |
Unbelievable Keith. Shame on you! You should no what harassment is more than anyone. So please quit harassing me. This mod crap has definately gotten to your head! I like how you selectively posted my response rather than what instigated it in the first place, which was Alameda.
So why don't you be a man, instead of this whimpering crap you dish out. Bye the way...you are way out of line and OFF TOPIC.
And to continue slamming me only shows how rude and childish you ARE! |
I don't see that he is continuously slamming you teas. He is only answering all the questions about a comment he made about you. It simply looks worse than it really is
"Whimpering crap" tut tut shame on you

Quoting Deli_kizin: Anyway people, this is enough.
1. If you have any complaints about a member, solve it with the person him/herself through PM, or if that doesn't work out you can contact one of the administrators or moderators. We will see what we can do.
2. If you have complaints about a moderator, you can contact one of the administrators and we will discuss with moderator in question.
3. If you have complaints about a specific administrator you can address one of the other two.
Please no public mudfight about who did what and when and who is stubborn, and who does or who does not post and read links, because this way you are never going to find a sollution for it. You will only create a bigger feeling of discontent on the website, which is exactly what we are trying to fight here!
Thank you for your cooperation. |
Dear DK Please don't think I disregarded your above post. I have been away and was responding to posts as I read them. I've only just got to this one.

Quoting karpusqueen: There is absolutely no problem in posting links in order to inform others. It can save a great deal of time in a debate because it negates the need to back up a point 2 or 3 posts later. I don't think people who post links are patronizing those involved in the debate and in fact other members may find the links useful/informative. Lighten up everyone and stop using this issue as a stick to beat someone with. I'm sure the site advises that links be posted when appropriate anyway. |
Quoting teaschip1: I don't believe anyone was being critical about posting links..I firmly stated that I found what people write here more useful than googleing. I don't have a problem with links when it's necessary, however just because a link is posted doesn't necessarily mean it's factual. You must consider the resources.
So why don't you take your own advice and lighten up yourself Peace Train.... |

Keith, I cannot find ANYTHING rude in teaship's reply to peace train. I have no idea what it is you think was rude in her post... I think she was extremely clear and polite in what she said. I find it quite unfair to point her out as the example of why some discussions go out of hand, especially when me and many other people see nothing wrong here.
I haven't responded to karpusqueen's post because it just looked to me that she completely didn't get why we complain about some of alameda's links. She's talking about apples, while we talk about oranges. And that's how most of our conversations with them are anyway.
I think I am one of the people you are referring to who comment on alameda's posts. Actually, really, that is just too bad for alameda. I happen to disagree with her a lot and I have a problem with the things she says and the way she says them. I try to tell her what bothers me, but she almost universally doesn't listen and just keeps on talking about her own thing. I am not being unfair to her, I am only saying what I think.
If you are pointing out a group of people "attacking" alameda every time she posts something, I think it's equally important to say that there is a group of people who continuously attack me, girleegirl or handsom whenever we post something. I'm not crying about it though because it just looks like certain people happen to disagree on everything, and that's also the case with me and alameda. So please, try to understand that nobody is being intentionally mean here.
