Ah come on people...that is not that bad. I'm sorry, but it probably isn't the first time any of you have seen this word. I'm sure a few of you have probably been called that word. Do we really have to act like a bunch of babies here? I wish that was the worst thing I had ever been called! Would I want to be called that? Probably not, but it wouldn't even get a blink out of me. Boo freakin Whoo!

For god's sake it's not the end of the world. Let it go. No reason to burn someone at the satke for saying ......

Just so you know I'm not friends with this person. Have never spoke with them.

Now flame away! :)

I saw ECF as a community thus it hurts more than if it were some crazy on the street.
 
Good find Kinabaloo , if Sanneke is leaving the ECF world all this is just a cheap , incredibly rude and unfounded parting shot .... doesnt take much courage to say something tough when you are about to slam the door shut on the room... indication of character perhaps?

And Kas ? you are well supported here in the community , I know this wasnt a "boo hoo" from you at all.

People... there are real people behind each and every name on this board, some jest and play , some are a-holes, but there is no need for saying things just cos you can , just because it is "the net"
Why shouldnt people accord anyone respect or manners anymore ...out and out rudeness or attacks should NOT be tolerated

D-Struct I would like to have concrete proof that it was unprovoked before we start banning.

If it is truely shock value and not a boo whoo then I apolagize.

But still it's only a word, can she not block them from pm'ing? Then if they do it out right on the forum I say ban em!

I have never had any words with this person ever. There was no provoking on my behalf. I just logged in and there it was.

From the Forum Rules>General:

Private Messages and Emails between members must never be quoted in forum posts, unless express agreement is reached between all parties to do so.

I posted this knowing this rule. PMs like that I am sure are not protected by that rule. If me and that person where having a PM flame war, then okay, but I have never said one word to this person.

It's pretty easy for me to look at both of their post histories and see that it's not likely that Kaston did anything warranting such a response.

Like I said, it has nothing to do with the word, it's the sentiment and hate behind it that is troublesome and bound to rear its ugly head again if it goes unchecked.

Exactly! Here we have a certain degree of trust and I think overall we want a peaceful forum. Yes, yes... the drama here and there does make it interesting as well. As for a personal attack of that degree whether in a thread or delivered as PM should not be tolerated!

It looks as though Sannake is leaving anyway, so it is probably no skin off his or hers back, but IMHO a ban is necessary. :sleep:

    Kaston - your'e in a land here where most everyone is hidden behind a pc. Who cares if someone calls me a .....? you a .....? in the end it doesn't matter. Block them from pm'ing you. You have to understand there are many varieties out there. You may have highly offend this person with something you have said or done. Maybe you should have just pm'd them back and ask what their problem is instead of dragging it out here. :)

    It is only my opinion. I have nothing against absolutely noone on this forum. :)

    That person is also trying to hide behind that:

    This was a PM to you, not a post on the board.

    I will sent this to the moderators, and hope you will be banned.

    YOU CAN NOT POST PM"S ON THE BOARD.

    It's against THE rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    This was between you and me.
    If I wanted to post that on the board I would have.

    BIG mistake.

    I have yet to make any PM replies to this person. I have a feeling I will not be the person banned. But then again you never know.

    If this person has sent messages to anyone else who were to shy to come out, then it is worth the ban if I get one.

    We are a community!

    I have dealt with this type before and talking to them only makes them feel like they are in the right.

    I sincerely want to thank those in the community who are standing by me in this unprovoked attack. If you think it silly and something I should shrug off, I understand. But I do not hide behind a false screen name nor hide my real identity, so I see it as slander.

    I wish I could just ignore it, but like I said this is a community. We have many wars to fight to keep or get our right to vape, we do not need to be turning on ourselves.

    Again, thanks to all of the members who support me and have gone to SJ on my behalf!

    I love you all!

    Yes he/she sent that to me. Again, I have not said a word to them.
