:lol:

life is for dying :D :P

:stunned:

 

 

 

:kiss: For Carla!

Mwwwhhwhhahahhhahh!!!

 

I read this thread this morning while I was at job and I started to laugh so loud!!

I've forgotten that I was on phone talking to a customer... :stunned: :stunned:

Thom this is just plain fuckin' mean!

I'm not voting because I like Carla!

although if I had 2 bullets and I gun I'd shoot Sean Paul and Justin Hawkins :dozey:

 

Hey fifi,

 

I'm not down with people calling Thom "fuckin' mean!"

This thread is half joke, half message.

I don't think it's half as bad as some of the crap that goes on around here, and Thom, being a generally nice and amiable guy, a good contributor and a friend to a lot of us, deserves the benefit of doubt.

 

In actuality, Thom has been trying to get Carla to be a little more considerate of some people's views. He has tried to be kind and direct and it hasn't worked.

 

This thread is tongue-and-cheek, but I think Carla bring it on herself.

 

Just my view.

crap!!

basically what I wrote before it disappeared was that I wasn't calling Thom fuckin' mean. I was commenting on this thread! I have absolutely nothing against Thom and he knows that! It's just that I know how offensive this is to Carla and I know other people see my point. I have no problem with you guys having your laughs and "jokes" but not at other peoples expense because not everyone sees the funny side :dozey:

Nothing against any of you guys but I thought this thread was mean

 

thats my outlook of it and Richard I'm really in no feckin' mood to start up arguments like this ok?

If I had a gun with two bullets.... I would buy myself more bullets to kill all of you motherfuckers! :angry: :lol: :angry:

 

Okay...I wouldn't really kill any of you, but this thread is not funny at all and thom that was such a low thing to do, you hit so low.....

 

 

and if I had a gun with two bullets, I wouldn't be saying how would I "kill".... I would just make it a surprise......

i've done lower things

 

thom this was still cool :cool:

Well I wasn't asking if you done lower things or not....

you have to admit though

I personally don't know much about you Eric....so if you say that you have done lower things....then, I guess you have....but since I don't know you that well, so no, I can't say that I do admit that you have done lower things.......

uhhhh...

Who the hell is Carla?

Sorry.

crap!!

I'm not arguing.

 

We both just said our points.

 

I see your point, and I hope you see mine.

 

I don't see what disagreements need to be arguments. You're a cool girl. i don't want to argue with you. I just expressed a different view.

 

I think it's all good.

Josceline:

 

I respectfully disagree.

 

Before I start, I want to say that I completely see your view regarding Carla.

 

However, it's a fact that Carla dimishes the fun for a lot people. That's an issue that people seem to want to discuss. I know that Thom has tried to talk to Carla in a very direct, kind way, and he didn't get a favorable response.

 

This thread is meant to be tongue and cheek, but I can see why people are offended. Let's take that into account, but let's also recognize that Carla's behaviors are inspiring this kind of reaction in not just Thom. I am defending Thom because I think that discussion deserves some time.

:) ok I just took it as a dig at me because it was directed at me even though others had agreed with me etc... anyway glad things are sorted :) I hate disagreements thats my big problem, I always turn them into arguments anyway...

I shall respect your view :)

ok I don't wanna sound like a complete bitch here but if it's Thoms problem with Carla why are we all getting involved especially when neither of them are here at the moment?

 

 

yeah last post I'll be making in here *goodbye* :)

you have to admit though

 

Eric has done lower things.

 

But Eric recognized those things have been done and avoids a.) repeating the mistakes, and b.) perpetuating the problems.

 

There is a level of humility there which I respect. Eric is young and will make mistakes. I try to understand that just as I try to understand I will always make mistakes. I just hope to not make the same mistakes twice.

 

Back to my second sentence above, Eric is showing intraspection, and I think that Carla needs to look at herself a little bit and say "How important is it to me to keep doing these things which are inspiring such discussion?"

 

If those things are very important to her, then she will elect to keep doing them and, implicitly, elect to continue to see periods where people's frustrations boil over. If she decides to say "even a those is a minority of people, I need to consider that I'm inhibiting a number of people's fun on the board," then I think the board will be a more enjoyable place for her and her detacters.

 

 

An additional note added five minutes later:

 

It's easy to say turn the other cheek, especially because Carla is getting her feelings hurt. Although it may seem the opposite, I am not oblivious to that. I don't want Carla to be hurt or feel like this isn't a place where she can feel welcome.

 

But how long do we go without talking about this? People are PM'ing each other, PM'ing Ian, posting passive polls, posting aggressive polls. Can't we talk about it?

ok I don't wanna sound like a complete bitch here but if it's Thoms problem with Carla why are we all getting involved especially when neither of them are here at the moment?

 

 

yeah last post I'll be making in here *goodbye* :)

 

I think it's because the bigger issues here are that Thom is embodying a view many people agree with while others now want to defend Carla. In that way, we are chosing to be involved and it's not just a Thom/Carla issue.

 

But I think we should just try to discuss it as calmly as possible, remembering love and reason will always win, given the chance.

Or, we could just realize that the polls aren't that big a deal. You can make just as many "good" threads as Carla can make Polls.
