    apparently 'moon' isn't sufficient and therefore I have to edit my post.

    i was trying to sing blue moon but i kept getting it mixed up with blue velvet and anyway my moon is purple not blue so its not really a matter,
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    feel i should point out that the Pm if you read it properly isnt actually as nasty as the spin on it has made it sound and that it was edited! ... i should know coz i sent it!
    im sorry if some of you dont feel the same way but i never once said we all did. i know SOD has said she wont be back but im sure she will... and all i meant was that i was sure there were less public more specialised forums or people where she could get a positive and beneficial response that may lead to some kind of breakthrough in her problems. im not online much this weekend so backlash all you like... and feel free to pm me ... i'll be happy to respond :D
    all the regs no what im like and im not apologising for sending it im just sorry some of you thought i was implying we all felt the same.

    This is a private message I received today after telling my 'friends' here what was happening and why I have been away.

    "hi SOD, im sorry things are still rough for yuo :( and i understand that you eed to talk to someone but do you really think a very public forum about competitions is the place to do it?? and were you trying to make certain people feel guilty for being mean? coz if so thats not very kind really... it just makes everyone feel miserable. thats why people avoid the inn these days to much depressing stuff and bi*ching and backstabing in there.
    really hope things pick up for you son and that comping fairy is smiling down at you"

    This is precisely the reason I have kept away, having been called a "whinger". I posted in here for a long time before my personal life hit the skids, had good friends and found people wonderful. Everyone was so kind, and I always had a kind word for others in need. Clearly things have changed.

    I won't be back and wish all of you the best. Happy comping :A

    You can write/talk about whatever you want in the chat forum it does not state "competition talk only" cannot believe people had the nerve to send you a pm like that what was the point in that? feel free to pm me if you ever want to chat hun.Ignore the toools that feel they have to pm people if they read summit they dont agree with and give as good or better than you get cause dam i would.xx

    CMC, I really didn't come on here looking for a fight, I wanted support as am in terror given the choice between saving my home or battling on to see my baby. I would challenge anyone to walk a mile in my shoes, and feel I have behaved with dignity and integrity throughout this horrible year.

    However, you come on declaring that you sent the message, which, yes, you did. I would never have named you and many people contacted me and asked. I will not stand by while your supposed 'apology' takes another pot shot at me though. I did not edit your message in the slightest and am more than happy for any regular member of this forum to have my password and go see the original in my inbox, or for a board guide to take a look. Do not come on here and make out like I have manipulated or misrepresented you at all. If you want to apologise, go ahead, if you want to be mean, that's fine too, but don't be duplicitous and make others look bad. You have no shame.
    But there are dreams that cannot be,and there are storms we cannot weather!

    I feel a need to respond as the Inn was just starting to liven back up a little.

    Its not your fault SOD if it it doesn't and I personally felt it was more of a loss of some regulars, rather than whinging that had killed it off at the moment CMC. Thank you for saying the pm was from you CMC. Its hard to explain, but while the pm isn't very nice, its not really nasty, just sorta thoughtless.

    Sometimes its easier to post about matters that are really upsetting to you in an online forum than to break down in front of your family or reallife friends.

    Often someone may not be looking for answers or magic wands, just some acknowledgement of their pain and a few cyber hugs. These may make someones life better and take just a few minutes.

    If however you don't want to get involved then the kindest thing to do could be to scroll past or just ignore a post.
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    Our Precious Baby Tianna has now joined our Family, she is much loved and very welcome, xxx
  • I don't usually post on here, for no reason than it can be a bit busy at times and I find it hard to catch up.
    SOD............ So many of us have our problems behind the scenes that are really hard to talk about at home as they affect others around you too. I recently shared my own problem on another forum and found the support and advice I received incredible., I hope you receive the same sort of supprt. I am not encouraging you to post elsewhere INSTEAD of here, but is there somewhere else on MSE that maybe able to give you really practical advice? Someone, somewhere may just have an angle to your problem that you have not thought of before?
    As said above, if you don't like what you are reading then just scroll past it.

    I wish you love and luck SOD with your forthcoming court date xx

    If you are concerned about the inn staying happy CMC, do you honestly think that your pm created this upbeat atomsphere here?

    As I see it, PM stands for private message - it's SoD posting it here that has created tension. :confused: I feel everyone is attacking CMC when it has nothing to do with them and we should all just leave it alone
    Thank you all who post.

    I am not attacking CMC, and can you please unquote me, as I requested. Let's not drag this further please. I deleted my post not to dwell on things and going to try and have a break from here too.
