Lorrie, re: If you feel that this thread has been violated by this intrusion of Clinton hate-mongering, petty BS and constant conflict, please let me know, [PM or otherwise], and I will no longer participate.
I HATEHATEHATE the intrusion of Clinton hate-mongering, petty BS and constant conflict, but I don't think it's intruded because you participate. Lizzie thought the same thing, that they followed her here. Actually, as I understand it, and this is based only on what Neo and Michael Cummings have said, Neo started posting here because he didn't like the way Michael Cummings was being treated, so he came over here in support, and the rest followed. As Daniel Schuh has pointed out, they usually don't post late at night and on weekends, so the rest of us tend to lie low until then. IMO.
The question in my mind is whether you are engaging them in the Clinton-hate-mongering and petty BS, or they are engaging you. If the former, please do it elsewhere. If the latter, I have no idea on earth how to get them to stop, and am looking forward to a new administration in the year 2001.
As for conflict, it's inescapable when people talk about ideas, but some people simply enjoy needling others without expressing any ideas of their own. Those are the ones that should just be ignored, if possible. |
