To: Poet who wrote (33972 ) 12/3/2000 7:35:53 AM From: basilides Read Replies (1) | Respond to of 35685 Poet (assuming I am not immediately on ignore): First, I am not wstera or anyone else who has ever posted here against bonnuss. Second, I have nothing against you personally, no quarrel, no issues. Third, until now I have simply been an occasional lurker on this board and others. My only purpose in posting the links I have brought here is to demonstrate beyond any doubt that bonnuss has a long history of deliberately antagonistic behavior towards other individuals. She exhibits a very clear and consistent pattern everywhere she goes. One of the most important and significant features of this pattern is that she will invariably, sooner or later, turn on those who befriend her. Several of her staunchest, most steadfast defenders on other venues are now her most hated and vilified enemies. There is ample proof of this available all over Yahoo. This woman is no heroine. She has succeeded, it appears, in gathering around her a small coterie of individuals who seem most united by their resentment and envy of other posters...Voltaire, particularly (whatever Voltaire's faults or merits may be, he is certainly a more generous, humane, and tolerant person than bonnuss could ever be). I guess I shouldn't be surprised at that. But I am amazed that people with some sense find anything in her behavior to admire or respect, applaud or encourage. It is easy to unite occasionally behind resentment, bitterness, and envy, because we all feel it from time to time. But to stay united behind it, you have to be more or less permanently motivated by it. Is that what the posters on this board are all about? As a person who has witnessed bonnie's "career" of doing precious little beyond mooching for stock tips, antagonizing those she hates (nearly everyone, sooner or later), and trying to attract attention to herself by any means imaginable, for years, I can only shake my head at the people here allying themselves with her as if she has anything constructive to offer (she's never given any past evidence of it anywhere else), and as if they will somehow be immune the day she finally turns her venom around on them. And sooner or later, she will. That's all I'm trying to tell you.
