RE: For those who don't have the tim... (in reply to Arash)

how about one for everyone who dosent stand up for themselfs Ron ? you have seen it happened alot and just defended him. Incase you havent noticed I am not alone in this feelings. So making this just between him and I is a huge understatement, many others of YOUR forum members are just as annoyed at him...
you know the other people here. Or are you thinking i tricked everyone and conviced em ? belive me I am not that smart, and they have theyr own sence of whats right or wrong.

I dont claim to be an angel , but atlist i dont attac people like your golden boy, while you the moderator sits and watches him do it, and infact defends him

and makes excuses for him.

"Oh but you asked for it" " Oh he a pro" " Oh you cant take it ?"

perhaps a blind guard dog

for yourself

after all this you found the sense of houmor to make light of the situation

and undermine me, thats cute

good job, keep it up

feel free to ban me if you think that will solve the foros problems

Well Flo,
You seem to have a fixation that I support ToddK, when I've already told you that I don't have any communication with him at all.

You seem happy to keep this thing going, don't you?

OK then, let's just forget the Tom Whiteley stuff, when you were having a good old time laughing and teasing a harmless and most helpful old member 60+ years because "You could run rings round him...etc"...
Remember?
The posts are back there if you want to read them.
Tom left the Forum after that.
Not such a harmless cuddly teddybear after all

Maybe Ailsa hasn't seen that side of you?

So we are certainly not all angels my friend.

So I'd climb down now if I were you and just let things get back to normal.

None of us are without fault.

cheers,

Ron

Or Ron, lets bring that up, you think that i am hidding that ?

I been here sice 03 obviously i have alot more arguments in my past, than newer members.

I have made peace with Tom since then I think i even apologised even thow we were both at fault. I criticsed Juan M and Tom criticised me. from there it went on to a normal argument. He insulted me I insulted me, thats how arguments go.

I am no angel, i can bite just as hard as anyone, but i never had a go at anyone who didnt have a go at me first.

bring out the Tom thread

I will when i am ready , or you can ban me if you think that i the problem in the midlle of all this.

Serious ? this is your solution to this problem

trying to bring up my past ? lol
oh well , what did i expect.

I will go quiet, it wont solve anything, 1 month from now you will be right back here.

Happy ? do i seem happy to you ?

Hey Flo -

It's pretty clear that Todd's got a thing for you, and I think you should see
that at least a few of us have spoken up about his attitude. However, there's
a time for you to shut-up as well don't you think? :)

Ron's right, there's thirteen pages of the stuff! (probably 14 by now) seems
to me a good time to go practice your guitar.

Best Regards,
Jeff

Just give it a rest eh?
And the same to ToddK and others who want to throw more fuel on the fire to keep the entertainment going.

Enough is enough.

Let's get back to normal.

cheers,

Ron

Great stuff Flo!
Remember, all this crap is being indexed and cached by Google and it's not doing the reputation of the Forum any good.
If I had to stumble upon this site and read the last couple of day's posts.
I'd give it the ****ing body-swerve.

Cheer up and have a nice weekend.

That goes for everybody!

cheers,

Ron

Florian,
I am sure you are still hurting from stuff, but could you just sleep on it and could you and ToddK just email or PM stuff to each other and keep it off the Forum please?
If others want to keep up with the ongoing saga then maybe they could arrange to get cc's sent to them.

Please?

cheers,

Ron

but on a more serious note, hell this is life. people have arguments and dont always see eye to eye. i dont think people who stumble onto this foro and read that thred would avoid the place, if anything theyd come bag for more and make sure they stocked up on popcorn and had theyre favourite deck chair handy. look at how many hits it had, that says it all doesnt it?

Maybe that's more what we should do. Thinking instead of replying.
Then again, "thinking" is not exactly what keeps things going here.

Everyone has a side they're not proud of, and I'd be stupid to think Flo didn't have one too. At a distance of 11000 miles I can afford to forgive that.

EDIT: I forgive Todd for his sexist assumptions too. After all he can't help it, he's only a man.
