So this is what all the unpleasantness stems from. How did I miss it?
So the Dripster insults Rob's character .. and gawd only knows what else, sends PMs out to garner allies, Losty reads same, Losty expresses concern over evenhandedness toward newer/less popular members, Rebecca and many other mods/admins feel hurt and unappreciated by Losty's criticism and there is tension in the air so thick you could eat it with a fork.
Losty is just like my wife, thought in the head becomes word out of the mouth. I love that about both of them. I would be way too thin skinned to do what the staff here does and I would chafe big time to criticism having gone through the angst and time consuming process they endure. Love Losty for being a blurty mouth. Love and hugs to Rebecca for being hurt and feeling misunderstood/unappreciated. You, Rebeccarox, are very much appreciated and respected by me for what you bring to the forum - both before you took on the onerous task of moderating and after.
Frankly, if it were up to me, I would be a hell of a lot less fair. I have no use for Drich. I'd toss his ass out for being on an obvious mission to preach and convert rather than to interact honestly. AlphaMale would feel my boot too for roasting marshmallows over the hurt feelings in this thread and cheering it on. Obvious cancer to the forum? Gone. No process for you. Fr0d0 I still miss having around but I can still keep in touch on Facebook so I'll survive. I do think we could use more opposing points of view, but I see no reason to keep around cancerous personalities or those that are here to say whatever it takes to change people's beliefs.
If I could I'd patch things up between Rebecca and Losty but of course I can't. Still like them both.
