She really should just stay out of that thread.
She has to deal almost exclusively with Stoo and CJ and they both are incapable of owning their behavior. They both blame it on not be wired right, as opposed to being low life, cretinous pieces of shit.
Their motto now is basically "we're dicks but it's not our fault so just deal with it"..
She's not equipped to deal with fuckwits like those two..
It's a shame because she tries to have conversations on that forum, but the number of people left that can have a decent one have dwindled to almost nothing.
She needs to get over her issues with SF too..No idea what started all of that.
That forum, like a fish, is rotting from the head. Without a new owner, that isn't a piece of shit, decent conversations will become more difficult than they already are.
If she were smart, she'd tell Stoo she was taking a break to give him a chance to fix the fucking place.
I imagine that he might do to her, what he did to me when I finally did the same..
Permaban her..

She's a far right wing libertarian and loves to dish out the insults but cant stand any kind of personal criticisms.That lot are devoid of any kind of empathy for others.Selfish pigs and as thick as shit to put it mildly.

Fucking ironic how the persona known as Stooo complains about other people avoiding paying tax

On a different note, what happened to Drum.
She provided decency to site run by a dickhead?.
She just up and disappeared didn't she?

It's more that she deliberately tries to provoke to get a reaction - but the strange thing is she gets genuinely angry when her ideas are challenged. So it's no surprise that people avoid her, especially as she uses her mod position to threaten or ban on a whim. Hers is never 'conversation', it's almost always a few half-baked ideas not properly thought through, and the same ones repeated over and over. Leaves the impression she's on the forum because she just wants a fight. Mind you most of the women there are the same, always having a go at each other. Agreed she should keep out of politics. The only conversation she had recently that hasn't led to tears (yet) was about a hair dryer, she should stick to that, and other safe stuff like dogs and puppies.

I thought he was closing the place? He'd do good to hand the reins entirely to her, because as you say, the place is rotten from the top down and that's always been the problem.

From what I remember of Holly, she was always reasonable and level headed. One of the few mods on there that ever was. The only other person who could rein it in over there was Ragga.

I miss Ragga/Fen on forums.
She was one of the first people I ever had a conversation with when I first joined a forum.

Had a look at the last couple or so pages, cos reading much more of the cockamamie opinions being given in that thread would be like wading through a turgid unyielding swamp.
I don’t know much about CJ, other than noticing his yearning to get the better of Maddog always went several stops south of obsession! But that was back when the Politics section used to be worth a read.
I will give him credit though for his INFINITE patience (and even the courtesy) in CLEARLY laying out STONE COLD FACTS to counter the extreme batshit whataboutery and blinkered disinfo going on in that thread.
He sure has a fuckton more patience than I could ever have! In the immortal words of Mark Twain ~ “Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience“.

Hope she’s ok! I’ve had my run-ins with her back in the day. But then it all settled down and we kinda ‘got’ each other’s SOH. She could be a right laugh - especially when she used to mercilessly shoot down the persona known as Stooo’s chronic navel-gazing and self-obsession

I first spoke to Fen, Major, someone called Tonto, and Cunningirl...aka Canny.
I immediately attracted forum horrors like Claire, Dean, NAA and a couple of others....back then I had no idea what a troll was, I just thought they were mythical creatures that lived under bridges.

There was also a lovely poster called Beamglow, she kept a low profile, so not many people remember her.

She left forums after the Mirror closed. One poster, who as far as I know isn't around anymore, made her forum life miserable.
Thinking about it though, there are a lot more nice people you can relate to on forums, than horrors.
Could be Alice's husband.
