I believe they may be all one in the same but I could be wrong. I just like to laugh at the drama not understand it.


All one in the same???  lol    That's even more bizarre than i could have imagined!

ok, i'm confused.   i don't see a lot of fighting here, only a few topics that get batted back and forth, but overall done in a fairly reasonable tone.

Which leads me to worry because of the old joke...  "If you cannot identify the black sheep in your family, it's you, say Baaaaah."   Am i not seeing fighting because what i consider "discussion" is actually being taken by others as much worse?

I come back today and WHAM! I get pissed on by benji here, straight from jump street.

Maybe, just maybe, you got pissed on because you 'came back' in the guise of a submiisive, under a fake profile, and stated that you found it "a LOT of fun creeping about the back stairs as a subbie on here!"
I'm not certain, but I suspect that pretending to be somebody other than yourself in order to post nasty or insulting things and stir up trouble would make one not only a sneak and a bitch as posited by this thread's OP, but a shit-disturber and a liar to boot.
If I were you I would count myself lucky you were only pissed on.



Okay, i just got home from work and read all the posts. 
 
Am i reading all this right?  On the one hand, we have candystripper, who has  several times changed names here, told people that....and perhaps started some 'whiney' threads.  Okay, i could see where that could be annoying to those who are on here often.
 
But then we have TexasMaam, who has actually changed identity to a fem sub, where nobody was aware....
 
i really need to know which we are saying would be the least admirable here before i could comment further. 
 
As i can see it now, i would take a constant whiner to a sneak.  At least one is open about who/what they are which shows more character to me than someone who sneaks around pretending to be someone they are not. 
 
So am i understanding this right?

Not exactly.I do not presume to speak for TexasMaam, but I will say this.  She did have a sub profile on here, but as far as her sneaking around, and yes she said lurking in her post,(although I think most missed the possible non ill intended sarcasm and fun intended in that remark) if you look at the posts that she actually made, if anyone was paying attention she did not speak in the manner of a sub.  I noticed that but didn't think of it being out of the ordinary. At the time that TexasMaam left the boards and the site, there was a little sniping faction that seemed whenever she made a post to have some smartass sniping comment or personal attack.  If you look at the posts she made until that last few on submit2u she was "just a regular poster".  She actually decided to draw attention to that profile or it never would have been found out. I will say this also, and take the flames as they come;  when TexasMaam first started contributing to the boards, there were many things she and I were not in agreement with and debated back and forth at length.  In that time, she never treated me with disrespect, maybe because I treated her back with the same consideration.  She happens to be blunt, which offends some people.  However, she does speak her mind as we all have the right to.  She did not have to "out" herself, but she did.  And the flack that has been raised by one or two about it is horrendous.  I actually enjoyed quite a few of her posts in the past, and I for one hope to see more of her in the future.  If I can say that as much as she and I disagreed in the beginning, anyone ought to be able to. I think the difference was, then, we agreed to disagree many times. Sometimes we thought alike.  That's the beauty of these boards, the only shame about them is the civility that totally disappears at times.

Maybe not to you, kc, but she has been disrespectful to many other people.  This whole row about her identity started when she made fun of Najakcharmer's screen name, and I pointed out to her that the sub name she was using wasn't so brilliant that she can make fun of anyone else's.  That's when she grandly announced that she's really TexasMaam in disguise--as though this had anything to do with why it's OK to make fun of Najakcharmer's screen name.

I'm not going to go back and make a catalogue of all the nasty things she has said over the years, so let's leave it at this: people who are widely unpopular in the forums are usually unpopular for a reason.

 Amen Lam....

In another forum that I belong to, totally unrelated to BDSM, lota the same things happened where certain folks thought they were vastly superior to others. Well....the guy that owned the forum sponsored a ‘‘show’’ {an antiquities show} in the heartland, a suburb right out of the middle of Missouri, for everyone associated with this particular hobby, including all the forum participants - Guess what? None of the presumed ''upper crust'', vastly superior types showed up. We knew that was going to happen    ; " }

Not necessarily directed at you Mavis however....this entire thread is exactly what people are talking about.
I've been here a long time.  Seen a lot of people evolve into much better human beings than they were when they first got here.
Not to watch and learn...well that only makes others ignorant.
Sure, a lot of people show up here and they are huge pain the the asses...then as they stay we see different sides of them.  Not to evolve with them is reprehensible.
The largest offender of that had post after post in this very thread about pink.

That is the problem, so many people going on and on and on about someone when they aren't even bothering to look around them and see what is happening.  That is bickering and fighting and for no real reason other than to try to make themselves feel special.

kc,
 
i just went back and referenced some of the links that were mentioned earlier.  For myself, i can only say this.  i really know neither candy nor TM. 
 
If i saw candy several times changing names and making whiney threads, i might find that annoying and choose to pass the thread by.
 
But when someone uses a false identity and says such things as "As for MY screen name, it changes every so often.  I like to lurk about, change a profile from time to time, see who emails Me, see who responds to a post or two...

Since you haven't a clue who you're typing back to today,  I'd say it works" and   "hey LAM, I had a LOT of fun creeping about the back stairs as a subbie on here!"  .............well, i just see that as trouble....and i really can't have a lot of respect for that.

It seems that you have developed a certain camaraderie with TM over time and are viewing this subjectively.  i, on the other hand, not knowing her, can only be objective and from that stand, i would have to agree that her actions portray her as a sneaky person. 
 
i think what people on these boards fail to realize is that when they denigrate another in a post, they really say more about their character than that of the one they post against.  People try to make others look like fools but in the end, they are the ones that look foolish, and end up losing the respect of those that read. 
 
You can reply if you want but i really don't have much more to say about it.  You may have reasons for justifying TM's behavior and motives but i really can't see anything positive about neither of them.  Sorry 
 
DG

Well, as i have said before, this thread has been both interesting and much longer than i had expected. 
 
i don't agree with what TexasMa'am did as "submit2one", but prolly would have let it slide if She had not tried it on Lam. 
 
*Sighs*  i agree with sub4hire; W/we need to see P/pl as T/they are now, not as W/we once thought T/they were.
 
gretchen, i don't think i was even on CM in 2004, but hey, i could be wrong.  i don't feel well and my memory's not sharp.
 
Peace out --

Oh My My My what a tempest in a Teapot!

General Response: *'you* in this paragraph infers 'you, the reader'.....As for 'submit2one', I never posted anything disingenuine or offensive under that nic.  My only 'motive' in lurking about as a sub is to engage One Specific Male in communication; it is a test, and I could care less what anyone's opinion of My tests with my One Specific Male are.  If I occasionally read a post that interests Me, I post a very sincere and honest response regardless of the nic I am under.  I did so, as submit2one, and Najaks response to my sincere and straightforward post generated the rest.  I have a news flash for you: I'll continue to change my ID from time to time, even pose as a sub because I can do it so very well, testing my One Specific Male, not 'you'.  That doesn't mean I'll be corresponding with anyone else, nor will I engage any Doms or others who don't know Me in any deceptive communication at all, but I will post a sincere response to an occasional thread that interests me no matter what my nic might be at the time.  If you'll notice I have no profile posted as submit2one, so as not to encourage anyone to waste any time trying to engage me here.  Do I want 'you' to 'approve and accept' Me as someone who uses more than one nic?  Do I want 'your' 'respect' for that?  *rolls eyes*  Oh Puleeze! You guessed it, I really couldn't care less.  It's not my intention to deceive anyone other than my One Specific Male and that's our business, not yours, whoever you might be.  I'll post what I want, when I want, and the post it will be neither deceptive, nefarious, false nor mean spirited; it will always be straight from the hip.  It might even be of interest to someone other than 'you', dear reader, with all due respect.

As for you kc692 - I think you're just The Greatest. *huggs* We need to meet and enjoy a glass of wine together sometime and I mean that.

LAM: Sorry Old Boy, I have not been "disrespectful to many" at CM 'over the years' on these boards, since I just joined CM as TexasMaam earlier this year.  I have been on the web for quite a few years, but not under the nic TexasMaam, so it's possible you have Me confused with someone else. While I have gotten fed up with a few negative, belligerent, chronic blog provacateurs here at CM and have occasionally let them know it, (I wonder who one of those might be, hmmm?), most of the time My posts have been in good fun and tongue in cheek which is easily misinterpreted here on the boards.  You have been one to misinterpret My intentions more than most and have continually slammed Me but then you're generally negative, abusive, sarcastic and sadistic (gee how about that?) without much grace or aplomb so your personality assessments only make me laugh these days.  Oh, and LAM, the only reason I 'outed' the submit2one ID is because my One Specific Male had already gotten suspicious of My bogus identity making it useless anyway.  It's an ongoing dialoge between my One Specific Male and myself and really had absolutely nothing to do with you, as difficult as that may be for your Narcissistic Brain to conceive.  My One Specific Male doesn't mind My antics, so neither should you because it doesn't affect you. As for being 'unpopular' here at CM, if my email inbox is any indication, it sure doesn't seem as though your opinion is held by all. 

candystripper: see above re LAM and while your flying to his 'defense' is commendable it's quite unnecessary.  I enjoy your posts overall ;  I'm only sorry you mistook My jibe at LAM for some kind of 'stunt I was trying to pull' when I was merely snapping back... I'm sick to death of his slamming Me just because he feels so compelled to do so whenever I post.  It's interesting that he is compelled to slam Me no matter what nic I'm under.  But then, he seems to slam just about everyone.  I suppose it's time for me to block the SOB (Sadistic Old Boy) and have done with.  Truce.

Wishing all a good day, I'm certainly going to enjoy Mine!

Texas Maam
