Well....though I'm late on this subject, I feel I should speak out. I've felt guilty ever since this whole thing went down. I was a good chunk of the reason most of you had to relocate or voluntarily did. Anyway, I tried several times while on Alpha to handle things in a mature manner with Al. It was like talking to a wall. I have no problems with him joining Beta, but he's got a lot of cleaning up to do. He's hurt a lot of friends of mine and acted in a rather 'unstable manner' towards me. I normally don't have a short fuse, but he snapped mine in half. I appreciate the e-mail he sent me and though I recognize his willingness to mend hurt feelings, it's going to take sometime for me. I agree with Sith, he's got a lot to answer for should he join Beta. The fact that he said he was deleting people that were no longer posting on Alpha is interesting since I had the most post on there yet got deleted. Interesting how I was told I was banned, but then he said he simply deleted people. Then there's this junk about Allison stealing images.
Well Fuck you AL. We've found a forum where we can say and do what we please. That's the whole idea behind a forum. It helps create conflicts and resolutions. Censorship on a forum is an oxymoron. :noevil
I'm so happy being around people who are like a second 'family' to me. The people on this forum are with me at work, after work, when I get up. ....etc We cuss, joke, chat.......THAT'S a forum.
As for you AL, I wish you luck in fixing things and I'm sure Beta will be happy to have you as a member. Because there's no risk of you running this forum, I have no problem with your return either. Just don't bother to e-mail me again or chat with me anytime soon. I don't forgive so easily especially when my friends are involved.
Sorry I'm going on everyone. I know that not many of you would agree with my attitude about this, but just hearing this guys name really pisses me off.
I wish I could be as laid back as most of you, but I don't handle threats well due to past experiences. Whether he was serious or just full of it doesn't matter to me.
Now that I'm all worked up, I better quit talking. Just stay out of my way AL. At least for now.
