sky, monster is not totally insane.

I am sorry. You are right. Not 'totally'. Just M.O. I know it is MY personal perception and my problem. If people want to take a bashing, without sticking up for themselves, at the time it is happening, so be it.
Bolded is key imo also |
What is insane about this? I read this post and agreed with every word. It reads like an Ayn Rand character, or lyrics to a Rush song. This resonates with me. If you think this is crazy, I can't understand how your brain works.

what does it mean? floraly wishy washy and fighting against the invasion?
....and if ignoring dumb, ignorant things are the stance then why fight said imaginary invasion? .. It is contradictory and vague at best. |

I didn't find it vague or contradictory. I found it bravely up front and in your face. Monster will always say it like she feels and sees it and isn't really worried about its affect. You may not like her for it, but she doesn't care.

Floral (seems pretty clear), wishy-washy = watered down, watery, or dull grey like dishwater, marshmallow-post infested = again seems fairly clear to me. Full of soft, fluffy, say-nothing, sacharine sweet posts.

NOT I. I don't work this way. I am in disagreement with it. As I said, it is a poor way to gather support. I would much appreciate it if people would take issue with her trolling at the time it is happening. I am quite capable to getting into M's face without hiding. I seem to be alone in this. ....and the original intent of this thread just proves how much of a coward people are in regard to her. ( outside of apathy and amusement) I have decided I will no longer stick up for people she is trolling in a thread because of this thread. If you are going to have someones back, have someones back up front and not in secret. It loses it's sincerity. |

What seriously? In all of the cellar, it's just you on your tod getting in Monster's face? |

The post itself was an example of how to fight that.

When she is unkind to people, I don't see anyone, even the attack-ie saying a damn thing. If you have proof of people standing up to her abuse, post them here. Quote:
How is censureship, when a post isn't harming anyone, good for this community? |
When Monster is being 'unkind' it is usually because she is pointing out what she sees as an idiocy in someone else's post. Its not abuse for abuses sake.
|
So she is taking issue with a post she doesn't think is worthy and bashes the poster. It isn't about content at all.
|
That's how you see it, but I think you are taking it too personally.

I like what you wrote although, forethought is not one of monsters posting style. For example, cloud was not being politically correct by asking a question in your math thread. Instead of helping, monster insulted her, made references to movies, which she is inclined to do, in an attempt to belittle and humiliate her. This doesn't fit your interpretation. |
Yeah, but cloud got really weird about brackets...I'm just saying.

No, this is an attempt to understand intent. I understand the intent is to suppress others she sees as weaker, while giving herself full rein. but as I said, the next time she trolls someone and they don't have the guts to say, knock it off, oh well. Quote:
The desire to learn. |
When I first saw this thread I assumed it was a joke. Monster and Shawnee are among my favorite characters on here.
I fail to see why anyone would get so bent out of shape at ANYTHING anyone said… online. |

For whatever the reason, it wasn't right. There are seven other people who feel the same way.
So let me get this straight, You think by me thinking she should have helped someone is silly yet losing patience with someone forgivable. humm Losing her patience would be different than fighting against ignorance and wishy washy florally. Not a matter of principle at all. A pure emotional response which are often, by their very nature, lacking in forethought. Which by the way, I like I.M. I cannot dislike her. I understand passion quite well. |
@ Sky: no, I don't have examples of people standing up to 'abuse' from Monster, because I have no examples of 'abuse' to draw from. There are examples of her being a bit of a bitch with someone. There are also examples of you being a bit of a bitch with someone. And me too, no doubt.
I don't accept the basic premise I'm afraid. |
Me either.
And those 7 other people can just put her on ignore...problem solved. |

I would like to thank the OP for thinking of me and standing up to what the OP perceived as injustice. It was a nice thought, although I think it backfired.
Do I need someone else to stick up for me? Frankly, no. I'm perfectly capable of sticking up for myself, if I want to. I usually choose not to, because I view that as pandering to bullies and bringing myself down to their level, and in the end, it's not really worth it to me. |

The thread about cutting some damn flower stems, for example: 453 people suggested ideas but she just kept intentionally playing helpless and ignorant, wrninging her hands and wanting some sort of higher solution. It gets so I make a joke out of it to avoid banging my head against the wall. :lol: |
Do I think cloud is helpless and ignorant? No I dont. But I reserve the right to laugh at the performance.

Was it this thread or its unintentional clone where Ali asked why I've changed? (The threads could be merged with nary a stitch.)
Nope, I'm still the same old me. You paint your criticisms with patience and concern and pretend your insults then bear meaningful weight. In other words, save it: your support has been woefully absent times when I really needed it. I don't need to be saved from some sort of negative influence, as you hint at. These are my thoughts and my words. Trying to remember when I was all sweetness and light. No, I've always been me. |

before you say it again, I understand that YOU didn't start the poll. I am, however, convinced that since you 'know who did' ...that you're of a mind with that person (whose name may or may not start with the letter A) I just want to point out that this is a bullying thread. just sayin' |

most bullies will deny to their death that they are, indeed, bullies.
I agree with you jimhelm. 100%. |

well.... yeah.
I've done shit like this. I'm not casting judgement on the use of this type of thread, per se. I dislike the anonymous posting of it mostly because it's a chicken shit thing to do. I also dislike the hypocrisy of cloud harping on bullying when she is taking part in it presently. I've been on both sides of this kind of thing, to be sure. I am not speaking form a position of innocence at all. Simply pointing out that a pack of Hyenas pulling down a Lion is killing just as much as a single Lion pouncing on a Gazelle is. |
It's the anonymous posting that I take issue with.
It isn't just distasteful--it actually harms the chances of working things through. So I have to wonder, if the poster isn't really interested in working things through to a resolution (as would be possible only if the issues were brought forward properly, with this intent) then what IS the purpose of this thread? To cast negative characterizations against specific posters, without allowing them to respond to the accuser? To encourage other members to take punitive action against certain other members? This all sounds like intent to cause harm. This is malicious. The poster of this thread is the attacker, not the victim. |
Where is Casey Haynes when you need him?

I was reading through this thread again and noticed how there seems to be a suggestion of monsters intelligence being high and that's why she's mean to people she deems less intelligent.
Does anyone else think that maybe she's a UG clone? lol |

Nothing happens at all. The needle returns to the start of the song, And we all sing along like before. |
It was just a little wordplay ffs

You are right Dana. Bitch = Cocksucker, should I have said "cunt"?
|
In the context of a humorous escalation, cunt is as good a word as any.
Til you startd about bri's meds I thought you were just playing the escalation |
