Anything to add to this thread? It's one of the few that hasn't been majorly threadjacked.
Actually, what's the difference with ONE typo, verses YOUR 2? Guess they were BOTH slips of the fingers then! Oh, and to add to this thread, as I've done with PLENTY of others.. Sure.. Go Lean is a great product! I've eaten the cereal for years... and to add it IS great with water!

OK, I don't know you, I don't know what your problem is with me. All I did was let you know you spelled someone's name incorrectly, it's not a big deal & I wasn't trying to be rude. Apparently you were upset enough by it that you felt the need to point out that I typed something wrong, and repeatedly shout at me about it. Good for you. Congratulations. Like I said, ya got me! But I have better things to do than get into a pissing contest with you. So have a nice evening. I'm glad you like Kashi.

Well I never had a problem with you, but it was pretty obvious that you were the rude one from the beginning with your bullying! If you feel that all you did was "let me know that I spelled something wrong" - you could have done that via PM! That stuff doesn't fly with me, as I'm here enjoying a GREAT board and meeting a LOT of new, great friends!! .. Maybe as someone else just said, when people are 'new" to different boards some of the others feel it's their job to make the new ones feel un-welcome. Whatever the case is, I'm way too old to get into any sort of "pissing contest" with anyone, and don't participate in that sort of thing! So, again... maybe we can start over and go forward! And again... Nice to meet you!

StevieFan49 - No offense, but to come in here as a newbie & start complaining about the way some of us post over here is rude. This is NOT 7W. We do NOT pussyfoot around. We tell it like it is. If you perceive that as bullying, then maybe this isn't the place for you. We are Ledgies. And we are not nice.

To avoid breaking any rules, I'm dropping this. I won't embarrass you by pointing out your mistakes, but feel free to point all of mine out if it makes you feel better. Good day ma'am.

Yeah. So. Hip Hop Abs. And Kashi - YUM!

Look I can appreciate feeling like Steviefan was spoiling for a fight, and certainly the way to make friends in here is not by being so ready and willing to get involved in one, but what the hell is this "We are Ledgies and we are not nice" crap? You're kidding me, right? This was meant to get a laugh, right?

Plenty of Ledgies are nice, and most of them are at the very least civil. Certainly most of them have the sense not to say somthing this silly and overdramatic.

On the board, you BOTH need to adopt a more civil tone, or of course ignore each other. You two have anything else to say to each other, do it in a PM. And of course there's always this: http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/faq.ph...q_new_faq_item

^^^I'm not sure what paula meant, but i took it as a reference to stevie's quote "we are rock stars, we are not nice". So I don't think any harm was meant by that.

"nice" can be broken down on so many levels. I realize it's your job to stop arguments from happening, but since we are talking about "nice", it's not nice when someone goes into a forum they are not used to, says something and everyone ignores them. Or starting a thread and no one responds. That's not nice. In the place of "This is NOT 7W. We do NOT pussyfoot around. We tell it like it is. If you perceive that as bullying, then maybe this isn't the place for you. We are Ledgies. And we are not nice." had paula said "this is not 7W, prepare to be ignored for the first 6 months of your existence here then someone might respond to you....but by god, we are such nice people. Let's have a group hug" would that have been a problem?

I guess it's all in perception. I perceive telling someone like it is, plain language, easy to understand, no beating around the bush much more satisfying than not knowing what the hell is going on and wondering where I stand, but eh. that's just me.

sorry if i broke any of the rules. I didn't intend to. This just seemed to be an interesting convo. Which is hard to come by around here anymore


as far as fitness and shiz....let's not even talk about it it's depressing

Wow, Sugar. Even I realised this was a funny reference to Stevie's "We are rock stars, we are not nice" quote.
AND steviefan49 was looking for a fight from the tone of her posts, you have to admit that.

Back on topic, I did "Hip Hop Abs" with some former coworkers the other morning. It's tough, but a good workout. Despite my lack or rhythm & coordination, I was able to keep up & do all the moves properly for the entire 45 minutes. I had to laugh several times, cuz the guy's constantly lifting his shirt & pointing to his abs, growling "yeah, you see that?!"
I saw the infomercial for that at the gym and it looked pretty fun. But expensive for a workout video, of course they throw in all kinds of extras though. It's also, as we say around here, "wicked cheesy". I'll have to see if there are other more reasonably priced hip hop workouts out there, or even just dance lessons on vid. I always thought it would be so fun to learn those moves. Then I'll be pretty fly for white girl.

Actully, no... I wasn't looking for a fight.. I'm not about that at ALL! Just tired of seeing new commers treated like garbage when trying to meet new people and enjoy a new board! Trust me, I'm also all about "being real" and saying what's on my mind and not pussyfooting around

Had the comment been made amongst two people who were having a good time kidding around, as it has in the past, I would agree. But you are assuming that everyone knows the quote. If someone doesn't, it looks like a pretty nasty thing to say. And up until this point in the conversation, Paula didn't seem to be joking around. Is it so hard for you to understand that your inside jokes may not be well recieved by others?

I also pretty much conceeded that Steviefan looked to be looking for a fight, didn't I?

I intervened to stop this from escalating, which is what it seemed to be doing. No more no less. If anyone has any more concerns about my intervention, I would be happy to discuss it further in PM, but lets keep this out of the thread, eh?

I personally wouldn't consider what Paula said an "inside joke".

If it's only understood by a few people, it's an inside joke. And from what I understand, Steviefan wasn't in on the joke.

Again, I don't want to thread jack this thread anymore. Please PM me if you want to continue this discussion.
