ORIGINAL: frazzle121 to the Op. You said she put 'under consideration' on profile to try to cut down unwanted mail. It hasnt worked, what a surprise, as she isnt realy under consideration and wont have changed the rest of her profile to signify that. You say people should respect the 'under consideration' but are only using it as a ruse yourself. I would take it from that, that you don't deem someone in the same position as, a no go, either. Oh boy.....! First off, I don't remember stating that "people should respect the 'under consideration' comment", though it would be nice if they did, and some actually do. However you are right: some don't, and that's precisely whom we (sub and I) were trying to ward off. I'll confess to an error in judgement. End of discussion on that silly business. Beyond that, I'm not sure if I follow your argument, or that of the other poster who commented on my profile indicating that I was not looking for anyone. Has it occured to either of you that I might not be looking for anyone because I am seriously considering this sub? Other than the fact my profile "might" need continual updating to reflect my moods, emotions, wishes and desires, (my apologies to the purists, someone of us have full time jobs to keep us otherwise busy), where are you getting that the sub in question is NOT under consideration? Does it have to be spelled or punctuated in a particular manner for it to smack of sincerity and validity? I'm open to suggestions. No wait. I take that back: I don't particularly care at this point :) And as long as we're putting words in each other's mouth, I am wondering about the gratuitous suggestion that I might be inclined to hitting on other subs "under consideration". Being a relatively newer and infrequent contributor here, however, I might have miscontrued the comment. For further reference however, I wonder: Is cynicism and assuming the worse intentions an acquired skill, or is it a natural ability that is readily attracted to this sort of fora? You don't have to answer that either. :) Ok, again, again, THANK you all for your, ahem, "kind" comments. I'll entertain further constructive input by private messages. The rest of you can take a calmant through whichever orifice isn't occupied by a hot poker. :) JT
