@hellfrog Is there a class? I want to be a better slut?
I mean, maybe sign me up? I seem to have run off multiple lewd folks, so maybe a new approach…
Mummy Pun? MUMMY PUN!

@Jennkryst Don’t whisper mummy facts.

@Testament I get it, but it might be worth letting it all be now. We are not talking from the same realities anymore, we each have our emotionally formed version of what is real (and I’m sure on this forum there are many versions of it, as there are there) but people like those need the opposition to be evil, so. It’s just…not worth it. You’ll just put yourself in a position to be hurt, in a place where all the power is held by people who are open that they are answerable to no-one, not even the community.

@Testament Narson is not your dad! You do you.
I’m probably overthinking but I would hate for anyone to feel like they need to act a way or hold a view to be accepted ‘here’. I mean, you were the one who called VK on the GOODBYEFOREVER in the first place.
Also if narson is your dad, I apologize. I just assumed I would have heard by now.

I just want to say since it’s apparent that Ghost is reading that it is against the SPIRIT OF THE RULE of the new MSB to continue to personally attack the banned, particularly when they cannot respond directly to those personal attacks.
I’m glad however they found their safe place to apply the rules only to those they dislike and can continue circle jerking about how great and POSITIVE they are while shitting on everyone who cannot defend themselves.

No, no. He’s not reading. He’s just HEARING about it. From PEOPLE.

@Tez the oppressed masses that we bullied into silence by existing, that continue to be silent now that we are gone, because they have ghost to speak for them
-
@Tez yes all those PEOPLE who are RUNNING to Ghost to tell him so he can continue to be a POSITIVE INFLUENCE in the community.

Gany said the reason for the bannings was to help with sharing ideas and communities! Because MSB didn’t have those elements before, apparently!
AND GHOST IS GOING TO SAVE US ALL FROM ALL THE BULLIES! THANK YOU GHOST!

@hellfrog More often than not, I think people at times feel a sense of social pressure to act a certain way in order to be accepted. That probably varies from situation to situation, but I think it’s still a thing. Not even talking on forums specifically, but just in general life.
And if I was the one who called out VK originally, I don’t remember, but that sounds like something I’d do.
@Narson They may be different perception of the same reality, but that belief doesn’t invalidate their perception. That’s simply why we have perception to begin, created by our own biases, worldview, and preconceived notions. There’s countless different version, each slightly variable from one person to the next.

It will stop and be boring much, much more swiftly if folks stop talking about it here. The only reason for the behavior happening in the way that it is is because the people doing it can CLEARLY see that the needling and backhanded insults are stirring everyone up.
This is Ghost and Monique, folks. They have a long-term history of intentionally getting under peoples’ skin for the purposes of just…being mean. Probably best to stop feeding them, as hard as can be.
They’re going to build what they deserve, and be stuck to marinate in their own shit. Just leave them to it. If it turns out that it winds up being positive and good and what they’re SAYING it’s going to be, then the hobby wins. In no world does continuing to engage serve the greater good.

The oldest wisdom on the internet, and the hardest to follow.

You’re right. I was about to post something along these lines about Ghost – just stop giving him attention – but you’re probably right about VK/Hella/Monique, too. I’m just bothered at the whole username change and pretending like nothing happened and the idea that there are folks on the board who will now engage with her having no idea what shitty things she did.
But you’re right. It’ll inevitably come back around on her as it has before.

There is an inability to listen and an inability to change. Something to remember is that you can talk rational and realistic and logic all day long, but willful denial is a strong thing.
You can not change someone, and most of the time it’s futile to make the attempt. The only person who can change someone is themselves. And they have to want to change. Otherwise, everything else is just noise and cognitive dissonance.
-

It always does.
It’s the ONLY reason I was able to sit back and wait when I was told that staff believed her that I ran her off of a game that she played for six months longer than I did (and she was one of the contributing factors as to why I left). She is incapable of not hurting people. It eventually came out. What she does ALWAYS comes out. She is NOWHERE near as skilled as Spider is in not getting caught.
Now I am going to go back to trying desperately to follow my own advice.

I find it disappointing that my long tenure on that board was brought to an end because I objected over @Snackness and @KarmaBum being banned for utter frivolity when locking the thread and taking a step would have been a sounder choice, in my opinion.
But they’re right in a sense, I knew that I was going to be banned when I hit enter on my post. I would do it again knowing what the results would be. So it’s better if they keep me off of their board and out of their hair.
With that said, I don’t need anyone to be angry on my behalf or further argue with them. The people that remain as active posters on MSB are ones that have a long standing history of manipulative and abusive behavior. In the case of one of the re-emerging personalities, someone that was banned from Arx recently for violating no-contact orders and pretending to not be her.
Those aren’t people I want to be around. I’m content to let it die now.

As far as I know, I’m still not banned and Ganymede is probably waiting for a response to me about suggestions to mod, but… well, like people before me have said, it’s not the board. It’s the community.
