Your response says it all... the truth and writing is on the wall. KathyK, please remove me from the xmas card exchange, I don't feel right being involved with something nice like that on a board like this.

If this forum board is going to have the "It's my sandbox" attitude... I doubt I'll be sticking around much longer.

I could care a less if there was an insult or not and I most definitely wasn't complaining. I was just agreeing with what another poster said by pointing out the obvious.

Don't hurt your head. I think the implication in the original post was clear: that it is not possible to understand why anyone would vote for Hillary. Very clear.... the "Mr.Rogers" speech is hypocrytical. The first sentence in the original post is not a question leading to debate. It's a...

That's some great "meaningful discourse," WMW.

Things haven't changed and I doubt they will. That's why I chalk it up to wilfull ignorance.

CT- 6c legs has been removed and I am fairly sure you know that. There will be no more discussion on this topic. I didn't realize she had been removed from here... I thought I had heard through the grapevine that it was the UDBB Facebook she had been removed from. I got it confused... my apologies.

Yep, I am aware that drg and DJR are different people. I just thought that I had seen some of the UDBB threads on the DD site that DJR hosted for a short time before the UDBB came back.

6c was banned? She only has two posts and I didn't see either of them as being wrong or in poor taste.

Bringing this up again because when I searched her on the member list it doesn't show her as banned. I hope she's okay.

I do not like Facebook and I do not do Facebook.

CT, just FYI, I didn't bring any UDBB posts to my version of DDBB. I, like most on UDBB when Mark closed it, had no access to it when I started DDBB. And, when I closed my version of DDBB, I saved nothing from it. Really? That's odd. I have a strong memory of the Truck thread, Blowdrying a Chicken ...

Canadian Trotter, it is in theory, because nothing from there will be posted here - or if it is, the mods will delete it. Nothing from there will be accepted here. Therefore, this is a theoretical discussion - or is intended to be. For the sake of argument, assume that there were no illegalities. T...

Of course, digihorse's long explanation does not completely explain why posting anything from UDBB to DDBB is such an issue either. AGAIN, in theory. You keep saying, "In theory". There is nothing "theoretical" about this issue... there is only reality. Also, I reaf your sticky ...

Officers have discretion. Nothing wrong with showing compassion and not issuing a ticket.

The difference is that Quelah posted her story on the UDBB herself and she was in control of it.

If people want the story on here, why doesn't someone from here contact her and ask Quelah for her permission?
