ORIGINAL: OttersSwim Ms. Shakti, if you find posts such as the preceding six pages tedious, I might suggest that you hit the hide button on the lower left corner of the post profile - thus blocking out posts from the person(s) that you find tedious and saving you time. [:)] Even if you block every poster, hon, that's still six pages. Just because you can't read a post doesn't mean it isn't taking up space and bandwidth that you have to cycle through, looking for something meaningful. Also--please don't dream for a moment that I haven't had Peon blocked for ages. The minute he made his first sexist/misogynist "joke" in response to something I had said, I pulled the plug; it's one thing to be a promiscuous, gluttonous little attention whore, and it's another thing to try to deliberately provoke me to anger for fun. My temper is not a toy; the "provoking me" trick didn't work on me when my first sub tried it on me 20 years ago, it's damn sure not going to work now. The problem with your suggestion to block more people is that by this point, I would be forced to block half the forum to escape his inanity. And this is to say nothing of the posts that actually represent real forum melodrama caused by his manipulative Sub Fatale bullshit. [:'(] Shakti, I’m unaware of any sexist/misogynist joke that I might have made to you. I’m sorry to have caused offence in that regard if I’ve done so. I didn’t know you had me on block; indeed, you’ve answered posts of mine in the last week or so, so maybe I don’t know how that system works. I have, sincerely, never tried to provoke anyone with a joke; only entertain them if I can. I don’t do malicious jokes. I’m not your sub of twenty years ago. Of course, I’m not your sub, or anyone else's, until I say that I am. As for being a “promiscuous, gluttonous little attention-seeking whore” – another thing of which I’m not aware is a forum that will allow personal attacks. I had no idea that I had this level of sway over the minds of other people! Is it because I’m such a powerful sort of person, or because they’re all such weak and sequacious sorts of people? Perhaps I’m a "master" without realising it – a God in a Goddess’s forum. One of the reasons for the banter in this particular thread was that it had involved some quite heavy sorts of arguments that had been taken up by a few people who, it seemed to me, had become exhausted by those arguments. They didn’t want to carry on, but they didn’t feel that they could leave them, either. I know the feeling of protagonists in debates like that because I’ve been that kind of protagonist both on a former forum and as part of my work. They want a break, so they jump at the chance of a joke. What they do can begin to feel like an arduous, not to say thankless, task. It’s literally thankless, of course, in that they're providing their thought, reasoning and time for nothing. I could easily be wrong in my reading of the tone in this thread, granted. More generally, you might well be right – as indeed you’ve said now on a few occasions – that it’s me who’s dragging along a swathe of followers into the depths of levity. But if that’s the case, then I suggest you, or anyone else concerned, attack the problem at its source and at the appropriate time. Please just say “cut the banter” on the given thread - or mail me. If I really have the power you think I’ve got, then I’ll try to use it. I’m quite sincere: I’ll be friendly and amenable. I don’t want to make this forum uninhabitable for anyone.
