OK, I have the time to bite.
1. What you see as "tremendous effort" on my side is for me just a flick of a finger. I usually have 8-10 tabs open, 6-7 of which is business related (I work in odd time-zones), the rest are fora (like this one & others), to fill out the gaps with small-talk relief. (That's when I'm stuck inside due to bad weather.) You haven't seen me 'trolling'. (In fact the only time i ever trolled was a big corporation's "support site".) I can understand how it may come across to you as "care", likely the same amount of words would take you a tremendous effort to cobble together - but we're all different, y'see. Unfortunately i need to converse with various people on the internet, so typing in the odd forum post is not much a big deal.
2. I'm very well acquainted with everybody's shit on PF, indiscriminately. I'm cursed (or blessed - matter of perspective) with this near-photographic textual memory. I could reel off all the distinct mannerisms associated with each regular member there. (You may want to ask MrO about that, LOL. At least he has the innate intelligence to learn that I mean no harm. It's the internet, & i'm not gonna buttrape your credit card.)
3. Everybody on PF knows too well that I don't do Private Messages. I PM with only a very small number of select people, usually about non-forum stuff, and even that is seldom. It's mostly because i can't be arsed with private convos, when i type stuff i want max. exposure for the least fingerwork.
Xena has a serious PM / private chat habit, as it's well documented by herself on 3 fora by now.
Now, when some of her PMs with lies about me are forwarded to me, that's where I draw the line. And that goes without even wondering what sort of lies and fabrications she's spreading about other people ( = those people who were actually in contact with her via private chat, unlike me), behind the scenes.
I gather you're not familiar with PF, but there has been a lockdown and many regulars got banned without explanation. All those were in some way discoursing with X via private chat, and i know from a legit source she was seeking those bans via PMs to the mods/admins. Yes indeed, I'm not ok with that either.
And while we're at it:
You lack reading comprehension skills, and your second to last post addressed to me was some ignorant fact about the spelling of Marleen.
1. How can a fact about the correct spelling of a name be ignorant?
Unless we sail off to the quagmire of emotional reasoning, that is.
2. That post was addressed to the OP of said thread and to those not familiar with said name. In that, it was an acknowledgement of you being familiar with it, which you apparently missed. Whose comprehension skills suck, exactly?
Anything else bothering you? I'm here to help, at times. It's a free communal service y'see, as it provides me some down-time from work. Ima altruist like that.
Just some friendly advice: don't take the "dumb jock" route with me, it's not a smart thing to do. A few others have tried it, and ended up looking very stupid themselves.
Ya dont say!!!
