Eclair,
I've explained my POV re your and Callaway's recent exchanges but for some reason you won't accept it.
To summarise, I have read only a fraction of them, mostly because I think they basically reiterate old stuff. It's clear that you two have a problem with each other, and there have been all kinds of accusations flying around, but who started what or did what is impossible for me to know. I don't pretend to know; I simply stop reading. I usually read the topics that I have participated in but skip posts that don't interest me. I occasionally check new topics but I don't read them all; only those that catch my attention for some reason.
Anyway, some n00b made a remark re my daughter, basically that she's mongoloid and should be put to sleep. The n00b didn't know me, had no reason to say anything, it was completely out of the blue, so I reacted and blabberized him/her. No ban. It took a day or two, and then an apology came from that person, together with a request to delete his/her account. I tried to talk him/her out of the latter but got no reply.
Pretty soon some people said that I had double standards because I didn't blabberize those who attacked Phlexor's kids. These attacks were supposedly worse than the one on my daughter. My reply was that maybe so, but they are Phlexor's kids, not mine, and if he feels offended enough he can report it and bring the matter to the staff. I also pointed out that I won't pay for the privilege of having some moron attacking my kids; they are off limits and I will act. Yes, that option is not available to every member, not in that form, but all you have to do is to report a post and we *will* act.
And we have in the past. Not long ago, we did just that after receiving a report re another n00b's post that was way out of line.
I was aware of you and Callaway arguing over her supposedly revealing information from a PM re your kids--you think she broke a trust, she says she did not and doesn't want to be called a liar--but I had *not* seen that exchange about you losing a child. I do wish you had reported it when it happened, but you did not.
Now, months later, you say that you tried to sort this out through PM but that she hasn't replied. I don't know why she hasn't and neither do you, in spite of you claiming otherwise. Instead of waiting for an explanation, you now choose to bring up old posts and attack me. You want me to read through all the old posts, to "wake up", but don't bother to check your facts first. WTF, Eclair? Your implication is that if my views remain different from yours (Callaway's beyond reproach, she's an evil bitch who controls me, she hasn't made public her interests in AS, etc) it will *confirm* your views.
I said I wouldn't explain my views again but I did, mostly because when you're not on that anti-Callaway crusade you can be a lot of fun to read and it bothers me that you won't see my side of this. But also, between the lines you say that I'm either lying or completely manipulated, and that just isn't true.
