This is public. Comments are screened, but I'm close at hand and if you want comments to be unscreened, tell me and I'll do it asap.

I really wasn't going to say anymore on this subject. I was walking away.

But, ...bah, what?This is my response: I never stooped as low as to insult her mother, her family, her health, her heritage, her background ( Read more... )

This would be so much easier to deal with if it was a spoiled brat on the playground.

Given our profession? Most definately! Heee!

I have the best friends: by gum, my flist may not be huge, but there's some quality folks on it.

*hugs*

So Sorry puckbuff13 August 10 2007, 16:13:12 UTC
I'm quite new to LiveJournal and have no clue what this kerfuffle is all about. I just wanted to let you know, I love your picspams. That is actually how I found your page...the SPN picspam community. Hopefully this will pass quickly and we can all get on with staring at gorgeous pics of Jensen and Jared. Hang in there!
P.S. I added you as a friend, but I wasn't sure if you were taking applications at the current time.

LOL, sides don't have to be taken, that's totally ok! I never actually picked one, I got put into it. Not the end of the world, however.

I said it to her then and I'll say it again now: I'm not denying that she works hard on her comm and is very friendly and helpful to newbies to the fandom. This is true, and I won't lie. It's what happens after, when you (that's a general 'you') have the 'misfortune' to disagree with her POV, that makes all the previous good very hard to see among the splooge.

Thanks for your words, and comment has been re-screened :)

Before all of this no-one could accuse me of being either a 'them' or 'us' in this fandom, because I've always been completely inactive, watching from the sidelines.

From having no opinion of the girl at all I now think she is, most definitely, batshit insane and am more than happy to count myself as one of 'them' if it'll distance me from her in any way...

She should know that there are a lot of people around who know darn well you never did anything she's accused you of because we've been here, watching this whole mess as it unfolds. In fact, I've read every word that's been written in your journal, in d_s and in f_w - I even read her journal before she locked it down - and not once have I seen anyone make any personal attacks against her.

My opinion of you through all of this btw has only gone up - kudos for the way you've handled it, even when it has got nasty and personal. I hope it all blows over soon so you can just get back to enjoying the show and the less scary side of fandom...

Thanks so much, I knew that all the people that have been around from the start, from before the mess hit f_w could see that personal attacks hadn't been involved, unless you count her comment to me about 'lacking love in my life'. I chose that moment to walk away cos I could see that my attempts at reason had disintegrated into stupidity.

Yes, I did call her batshit insane, but I stand by it, her behaviour provoked me. Now, I shall also call her a liar. Cos that's exactly what she has done, if not about the email, then definately about me attacking her personally.

So, the final question becomes... to screen or unscreen your comment?! (Currently screened btw) :)
