On the other hand you could all grow up, put each other on ignore, and do something better with your time. Any one of you could simply cease- regardless of what the "others" do. It doesn't matter who is infatuated with whom, or who started what, or who is "scared" by someone posting to them. Adults ignore things. Or at least this one does.

So whatever you post to me about this, whoever you are, I'm not interested, and I'm ignoring it. No one ever died from being posted to, no matter how creepy the poster was, no matter how much they disliked the poster, and no one ever stopped anyone else from posting by going on and on and on about how someone shouldn't be posting. Whoever was wrong and right in this, if anyone was, it doesn't matter.

I leave you with:

Here lies the grave of John O'day
who died protecting his right of way
his cause was right
his will was strong
but he's just as dead as if he'd been wrong

Not that anyone is going to die from this
except perhaps of boredom

But even though I didn't post to or about Poet anywhere here on SI,

A lie or forgetfulness. You posted about her here. I ignored it. Here are your slimy, insinuating, provocative words. March 12.

I didn't even turn him in when he posted highly offensive personal comments pretending to claim that my wife had left me, but revealing personal information is a clear no-no..

Although it was done by a Poet supporter as an aspect of her "defense,", I hope she had nothing to do with it personally.

But, still, in spite of the above, nobody was posting to or about anybody until you posted the second time about Poet. Nobody, Christopher.

Why did you do that?

And today, you posted to her.

Do you want links to the IHub posts?

I can't keep this up, I have too much work. I've done my best for a friend. You are weird and creepy and feel no responsibility to either logic or truth.

IMO SI has behaved disgracefully since you threatened to sue them so you wouldn't have to stop posting to Poet. But I can't do their job. Poet will have to hope you will stop posting to or about her simply because the SI community is watching.

I believe that you won't be able to control yourself.

Good luck, Poet. I can't stop him. Did my best. I'm sorry.
