What's all the fuss about
 
Apparently it's been brought to my attention the Homer McVie started a thread here about me, and it wasnt very friendly. I cant seem to find it. Was it dumped? I'd really like to know why he apparently has such a dislike for me. If he does, Oh well, I'm not losing any sleep over it.

I may be out of the loop, but he never mentioned your name that I saw.

Oh ok. Well, whatever he said, IF it was about me, I have no problem with him. I just hate getting into these petty fights. Life's too short.:)

DavidMn 12-01-2005 06:38 PM

Ok, I just got a PM from someone sort of explaining what the situation is, and what I'll say is this, You aint nothin till you're hated....:nod: :lol:

DavidMn 12-01-2005 07:04 PM

I was also told that some people said very nice about me too. Whoever did, Thank you.:) Just wanted to add that.

I have NOTHING against you, David. I can tell that you're a very kind person. I said that I think that you post too much(without even mentioning your name). And that I didn't think a comment on every single thread was necessary, especially when MANY of your posts don't say much, except for, "thanks for posting". See, we assume there's a new post to be read in the threads, and, much of the time, it's just a "thanks for posting" post. I think that's a waste of our time. JUST MY OPINION, although that's apparently not allowed here.
When you really have something to say, by all means, say it!
Take care, David. And I mean that.

David, I think I love you. :xoxo: But seriously, I don't think it was intended to be malicious. Certainly you're not hated. But yes, your true luvahs came out. :lol:

bikerchic 12-01-2005 10:10 PM

David, I think you are one of the sweetest, kindess men I know (from the internet). Your posts are always so genuine and good hearted. Even when people post sarcastically (including myself) you're reply's seem so innocent, yet funny and I can tell that your such a good hearted person. We need more people like you. So keep on posting because you always put a smile on my face! :nod: :wavey: :xoxo:

Johnny Stew 12-01-2005 10:22 PM

You're a sweetheart of a guy, David, and your positivity is welcomed.
So feel free to post as often as you'd like -- I know that most people appreciate the encouragement and kind words you offer them on their comments/thoughts/opinions.

I don't believe that Homer was coming from a place of hatred. :shrug:

David
 
You seem like a sweetie of a guy and I'd love to meet ya one of these days. I'm sure when FM rolls back through the USA, we'll probably meet at a show. :)

I agree with Brandon, I don't think Homer meant to be rude or hateful, he was just expressing his opinion about posting on threads with just an "lol" or "thanks", etc. I get frustrated sometimes when I'm trying to quickly read through stuff and when I get to the end of a thread, it's mostly those type of posts, but whatevah. Sometimes, it seems like threads are made up of nothing but chat back and forth (inside jokes and such) and that gets frustrating too. Just gotta deal, ya know.

Bikerchic, that's really sweet and true.

One thing for certain...David absolutely loves Fleetwood Mac. Rightly so. You can count on him to be spreading the FM/Solo love on "The What Are You Listening To Right Now Thread?"

But hey...the warm and fuzzy feeling of December is now here...so, David, you just go on being who you are and everything will be fine.

WelshWitchPMD 12-02-2005 03:21 AM

Hey David you already know that I think that you are a sweetie. I really don't know who Homer was talking about. :shrug: There are a lot more important things to worry about IMO then how people post. I am pretty sure that someone once started a thread called "If you have over 5000 Posts you are a Loser" or something like that. I think that was pretty insensitive. Things like that give The Ledge a bad name.

There are a lot of posters on The Ledge who sometimes I have no idea or care to know what the %&$# they are talking about. I usually just scroll through those posts. My main reason to come to The Ledge is to get Fleetwood Mac news. Half the time I could care less about Chit Chat.

However, I do think that overall there are a lot of great people here. The best part of The Ledge is when someone is going through a rough time and the other Ledgies are there for support. I get a warm and fuzzy feeling.:lol:

Anyway, I like your posts David. I did not see any problem with them at all. Hopefully we can get to see a Mac or better yet a Lindsey show together.:nod:

It's certainly allowed, it was just catty and rude and something that should have been brought up in a PM instead of trying to rally others with your not-so-cryptic post of, "Doesn't anybody else think that you-know-who...?" and then patting yourself on the back in vindication when one or two people agreed with you in private.

Of course, the thread was taken down, giving you ample opportunity to simply take it to PMs, but here we are again!

Thats because someone decided to go to David and tell him what happened. Personally I think it should have died when the thread died.

I love meta-self-deprecation.

sometimes I can be so BAD! other times I am just WORSE.

SteveMacD 12-05-2005 01:55 AM

Good lord. We can't even get a good flame war going here.

All I can say about the whole thing is that it's obvious that Indy Dave has never visited old what's her name's message board. Some of the replies make Minny David's posts seem like poetry.

HomerMcvie 12-05-2005 03:11 AM

Dammit Steve, having spent the last 30 minutes typing out an honest response, then realizing that it's not going to be permitted, then deleting it, is just plain wrong. But that's the only way to win here.
The PM support I got, shows me who runs this place. The PM'r's didn't dare respond in public. And who can blame them?:shrug: Certainly not I.
So here we probably go again...:distress:

What is a flame war? if it is what I think it is, then I beg to differ....
