Seatbelt check everyone.
I guess my point is that once someone says they are offended, that ought to be it. Would it kill anyone to drop it and leave it alone. I mean the parties involved have had their say/fun. What harm is there in moving on and not offending anyone more. This kind of apparant ganging up on someone or bitching them out on public when they really haven't dome anything that horrible is what I do not get.

um. excuse me? so no one can tell you what to post, but you can tell me what to put in my sig? in my sig history, i've always had signatures for long periods of time. most of that is due to the fact that I can't think of anything else to put up there so I just leave it.

and so...the person who made the pic orignally wasn't mocking you? aaaaannnnddd....the several other people who laughed at it weren't mocking you? just me? I was the only one? get over yourself.

and it was funny for 5 minutes? I was supposed to be able to magically gauge when the threshold for it being funny had expired? oh no. you're annoyed. join the club.

I've never had any beef with you, but if that's what you think -whatever.

If you have me on ignore, would you please let me know here? I promise I won't get mad. I just want to know. This knowledge may help me to improve. New threads with this particular topic tend to get locked, so I need to piggyback on this one.

he can't see you. he has you on ignore.





j/k of course. i dont' know who bill has on ignore.


not that anyone asked, but I don't have anyone on ignore...just...

it just seems like a totally different tone that you had in your last post.
I am sure no one means you harm, and come on man - that post by carrie was funny. You do post stuff saying your view and post counts. Is that really hurtful?

You could have posted something back like:

"When was the last time a thread of yours had 600 hits you crazy biatcccchhh."
add one or two of these ( see - you made a funny too.)
then you say "i don't know why those counts are important to me but i can't help myself"

the back and forth from that comment alone would add a few hundred hits right there as well

just a suggestion of course, and you can tell me to F off at any point. I can take it. I am not the report to a moderator type.

I have not a clue as to why you think I would have you on ignore.

My ignore feature has never been used and never will be. No one on the internet can get under my skin enough to make me do that. Some one once said "Keep close track of your friends but closer track of your enemies." It could have been Beethoven right?

No, not you! I meant "you ledgies" -- the plural you! As for that smelly Rhinelander, he couldn't clean the crust out of his eyes fast enough. Did you know he once threw a hot gooseberry pie at his housekeeper? He thought she was stealing small portions of food from his pantry. Understandably, she tried to have him arrested for that. (It was the same summer he tried to brain Prince Lichnowsky with a dining chair at his lordship's country estate in Silesia.)

Hey, here's an intimate performance of Copland's QUIET CITY from some college kids at Monash University. For many of us movie lovers in the United States, QUIET CITY hits home. Apart from being used so evocatively in some of Spike Lee's social dramas of the 1990s, QUIET CITY influenced the soundtracks of many mid-century American films portraying the lives of the urban "displaced," of postwar denizens of cities in the years when sprawl, development & the population explosion transformed the American landscape.

What makes me scratch my head is that Fleetwood Mac fans, and maybe even more so, Stevie Nicks fans are an extremely diverse group of people, whom I'm sure have experienced their share of ridicule, judgment, maybe even worse. I don't keep track of peoples sexual preferences, religion, or race around here, but I'm pretty sure some of the people taking part in making fun of Vivfox are bi, gay, or lesbians, and have been open about it. I guess it boils down to the fact that at the core we are all still human, but I would think that if you were ever in a situation where you felt like people thought less of you for whatever reason, you wouldn't try so hard to make someone else feel badly just because you get a laugh out of it.

vivfox (the ledgie) even admitted that some of the stuff was funny, but then later he got annoyed with it


at any rate, if my crime is for making fun of vivfox the actress, then so be it. Let it be known that all cracks on stevie nicks should come to a halt. I mean, just as you said-most of the threads have a title on them that describes what type of thread it's going to be, and there are tons of ledgies who wander into the purple room (soon to be brown?) just to ridicule her. fair is fair.

And those people have often been addressed. Anyway, this is about making fun of vivfox the poster, not the actress. If you didn't make fun of him/her then what do you care what people say about others who did?

Everyone takes all this sh*t so personally. Just use the golden rule. If a bunch of people were teasing you then you wouldn't be happy about it. Can you step outside yourself for a moment to see that? It just isn't cool. And addressing the fact that you shouldn't do it isn't a personal attack on you, it's a statement of what is acceptable behavior and what isn't.

Behind the scenes, yes that's cool. They don't go into Mc Donalds though to do it because that would be kind of rude and crazy of them. Just like going into a thread you don't like. Why not PM all your friends about how stupid the thread is instead of posting in it?

You just seem to think that if someone isn't gonna respond the way the original poster wants you to, then you shouldn't be posting at all.
Of course I don't think this, and I never said it either. I just don't think people should try to stir things up, or go out of their way to make other people feel badly. You can argue that this isn't the case, but anyone can look at peoples posting history and see that there are patterns.

Sinister? Are you kidding. Insensitive, absolutely but let's not overdue it. I don't need to be a monitor to point out that maybe someone feels that they are being made fun of, whether they say it publicly or not, in the hopes that people might just be clueless to that fact and maybe take the high road and knock it off.

I think once someone says "Hey, I feel like I'm being taunted" I don't see why there would be any argument after that point. If someone says "you hurt my feelings" do you try to argue with them and rationalize their feelings, or do you just take their words at face value and respect that?

Burn them? I thought sinister was a stretch, OK, now I am laughing, see I do have a sense of humor! Listen, I know a while ago you used to post a lot of threads of videos of your band, which many people, including myself, really enjoyed. If a small group of people decided that your threads were stupid and continuously posted about it, I would have posted the same thing I am saying about this one. I wouldn't think it would be fair for everyone who enjoyed your performances to have to put those people on ignore, I would expect those people to act respectfully, and yes follow the guidlines of the board. I just don't get why that's such a hard concept to grasp?

Damn, I thought I was done with this nonsense.
All these arguments about not going into threads because you're not interested in the subject matter is rubbish, because anyone who reads the Ledge regularly knows threads go off on many weird directions and interesting tangents. In fact this thread is a perfect case in point. Imagine all the drama people avoiding this thread because they don't like Vivica Fox are missing!

Actually, until now I couldn't see the stuff you posted because the ignore function hides the posts of the person in question. I stand by what I said before, but I don't understand the criticism of putting you ignore since you yourself requested that I do so.

I notice when Michele posts the many older articles she never has to endure any disrespect from you. So that's one of the reasons how I know it is personal.
I think it was just Sarah (who I've barely interacted with) and myself who questioned why you were posting those articles and you chose not to respond to it or explain. You could have just said that. And yes it's very annoying for you to bump a thread just to write "100 people have viewed this thread!" I find it odd that you don't understand that or why you don't understand why posting a huge, screensize photo of Vivica Fox in an unrelated thread on Stevie Nicks or whoever might also be annoying. There's only been two times I've questioned you : that Tusk thread (in which I only asked what the point of the thread was once, I don't think I was rude at all) and this thread. Maybe I went too far in this thread but I definitely haven't been going after you in other threads and you know that. To tell you the truth, I'm not even sure how you know my name, that's how little I've interacted with you or know you. I don't know yours.

Can someone make it clear who I / we are supposed to be blindly following? Today it's Sharon, but it seems to vary. I have no mind of my own so I need to be enlightened. And why are we little? Comments like that are offensive, but because I am an adult, I deal with life's little insults by not giving a stuff and moving on.

People need to realise here that most of the mocking was of the actress, not the poster. If someone posts a picture of an actress with a breast that looks like that, what are we supposed to do? Sit here with rainbows and roses all around us and say how much we'd all like breasts like that? It so happens, I assume, that vivfox the poster shares his name with viv fox the actress. Some people seem to hold the opinion that there are a group of us who just like to mock other posters. Maybe a few do. I see most of the mocking and laughing going on aimed at the content of the threads / posts and not the originator. Whether it suits anyone's agenda or not, there IS a difference, and there always will be a difference. If there was no difference, all of vivfox's threads would be filled with abuse and teasing. They aren't. Sorry about that.

I hope those concerned can see through the BS in my post, I hope I managed to lace it with enough for your delectation.

I don't know what you are talking about. I didn't ask any Mods to take my side Vanessa. If they "took my side" it's because they felt I was in the right, not because I asked them to.
Anyway I hope I can just get back to posting about Viv and not having us waste our time arguing about anything anymore.

Michelle I just want to apologise to you. When I was complaining about rude people I did not mean to add you to that particular group of abusers. Even though it sounded that way, I just want you to know that it's true what you said, about us never having beef and I don't want to have bad feelings between us. I was looking through a few older posts tonight and noticed that everytime you post anything it's done with kindness. I believe you when you said you were ranking on the actress and not me, so I'm apologising for going off on you the way I did.
