soph and bint.

i am very impressed with how you have been conducting yourself on the board as of late.

i think that it is unwise for people to hold grudges against other people for stupid shit.  i think it is time for the members here to notice how well they are doing and get over the past.  :thumbup:
Misunderstood.

I agree. Little point in dwelling in the past.

I prefer holding grudges and risking being stupid rather han being a sucker and lulled into complacency and risking "I told you so kinda advice". When the tide turns and things go to shit again. :thumbup:
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

so you think it's only possible to either hold a grudge against someone or just  be completely won over by them? no in-between? surely me and bint are not that scary?

how about just moving on and not being so immature about a dumb internet argument?  you seem to find it really hard to get over something that small :-\

(this is not me trying to either start another argument or ask you to be nice to me btw... just a little advice from someone who has also had similar problems moving on)

In the end it's a message board, nothing more. If things go to shit again, it creates more drama and more posts, and a new flamewar. In the mean time, the board could be about other things, though.

Don't invest anything into them then and then you have nothing to lose. There is nothing left to the original argument except insult tennis.

I want to say sorry to Eclair for getting so mad the other day.

I mean, I can use excuses for why I was in that mood, just lost a friend I love very much to another country for instance, even if the're not actually excuses, but I don't like fighting and I don't think anyone needs to hear MORE about my problems.  ;)

I know a lot of you people don't know much about me except I use intensity as what I would like to think is a safe haven to bitch about my problems, so its fair enough if you see me in the way you do.

Just thought I would let you get to know me  bit better, and realise maybe i'm not such a draining monster afterall.

I reply to every email that gets sent to my domain (aspergersgirl), every one. (except that crazy stalker). People who are lost, confused, depressed and don't know what to do. I also work 40 hours a week at the moment so I don't have much time to promote my forum, but when I become a bum again that will happen.

It may seem like I don't give anything back to the community, and thats fair enough, i'm just trying to enlighten you in what I'm really doing behind the scenes.

Thats enough wall of text for now I think.

Thank you Fatty. That actually really touched me that you made the effort to do that.

I understand that we all have problems with the way we communicate and I know at times I too come across as blunt or that I was being harsh on you the other day. I take that on board.

But, as I said, I do feel that at times I have supported you and cared for your different situations and that was ignored by you. I also think there is much more to you as a person than what others see here, so it was more a poke to encourage you to look outside yourself a little - if you do that, I think one day you will shine. Your apology proves you are capable of it...and thank you.

I do genuinely hope things improve for you, probably more than you realise. x
