Setbacks and irritants...

[ostarella]

Well, it was raining most of yesterday. When it stopped for a while, late afternoon, I took Fang's dinner out for him. Did the round-robin bit for a while and then it started to rain again. I took his food dishes into the tool house (where he lives for now) and then... well, I was getting soaked and didn't want to be, he was getting soaked and didn't want to be, I got a little impatient and picked him up when I really shouldn't have - and will probably bear the scars for the rest of my natural life. So some fence-mending to do today - but "She Who Feeds Shall Always Be Forgiven" - the Law in Stray Animal Land.

The irritant was a series of posts on an A-Team board - hopefully being worked out by the Admins over there. Not saying people have to like certain characters or the actors who play them, but you don't have to insult those who do by insulting the character/actor. Vast difference between that and the "friendly rivalry" that has existed ever since I can remember. Shows not only a definite immaturity but an even bigger dose of stupidity.

Basically, yesterday was a series of misadventures and wasted time - did not get as much cleaning done as I had hoped, did not get as much writing done as I had hoped (well, got a lot of writing done, but most of it went the way of the delete button), and I spent a great deal of time wishing fervently that I had my RV/bus/camper/vehicle and was on the road to anywhere other than where I was.

Hopefully today will be better...

I've dealt with it, although lol! I didn't realise the other mods were in discussion... (really should remember to read mod posts first! lol!) but I've deleted the post.

It's fun to have a banter... but at the end of the day, I like the A-Team so I like all four characters - Face is my favourite for obvious reasons, but it doesn't mean I'd "diss" Murdock, only in a friendly way with friends who know I'm playing. Bit of a lively poster that one... hopefully they'll get bored and bugger off.

Lively isn't exactly the word I'd use - trouble-maker, perhaps - one doesn't make all those comments on several threads due to a slighty out-of-kilter sense of fun. :p

Frankly, I'd ban her ass - but then I have a very low tolerance level for that kinda crap, knowing where it can lead to ;-)

I was tempted to delete her! lol! I'll let the other mods decide. But yeah... she's not likely to remain friendly, comments were definitely deliberate.

Maybe we'll have a vote. I'd vote for deletion just on the grounds of not using capital letters and punctuation never mind anything else!

To be fair, she did post a couple things that didn't diss the other guy - if the ones that did get snarky were deleted, and she was monitored until she'd proved she could behave herself, I'd have no problem with that.

Okay, maybe a general apology for bad behavior would be nice, too :D

lol! Well, I'd delete her too, ... for calling me a Girly girly! ;-P (Which I am - ish).

[beckyblack]

You're also a mod, so you're a Girly girl with the big mod stick. :D

OMG - I forgot that!

Right, consider her banned ;-P
