I was directed by a banned member to check out the latest brew-ha-ha. Stop frothing at the mouth. Before you click your buddy list and start sending private messages, it wasn't my friend Mary. Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves about what you said about her. Ashamed. But that's another story and not the reason for my "delurking" as Bru aptly says.

At least I was upfront and honest with anything that I wrote. There is so much gossip that takes places in corfidland via private messages and it ruins friendships and drives people away. Look at you people lately. In my abscence I might add. What a shame.

You all have blamed me for the ill feelings around here, yet in my absence, they've only gotten worse. Look at the members who have left since I did! Can't blame those on me this time.

As you know, I have my own message forum and never, not once have we ever had a problem over there, and we've discussed everything from religion to politics. But to be fair, the members on my forum and those whom I consider friends, don't gossip and spread rumors. Yes, like me, they are upfront, don't beat around the bush and if something needs said, consider it done. We don't whine and cry "I'm offended", ever.

All the people who bashed me publically and privately are now fighting amongst themselves since I left. Actually, I'm very much aware of all the argueing that has taken place since my last post. The few that I thought were friends have proved otherwise as they have taken part in gossip-filled private messages about me. Don't forget, some of you like to "leak" and I'm not talking about any prostate problem.

As you are well aware, I'm a Christian. Some of you have repeatedly said that I'm a bad Christian because I'm direct, sometimes brash, sometime's post in an uncalled rude manner. You are correct in everything except me being a bad Christian. The one thing that I never did was gossip about any of you or say something in a private message that wasn't said publically. I do not gossip and spread or fan the fires of rumors, despite 98% of of the people here taking part in such things. I did not follow your lead, thank God for that! At least people knew who I was and like me or hate me, it was honest. 98% of you on the otherhand, are less than honest and belong to a thriving gossip mill. Shame on those involved.

Now that I've posted again, you all have a common enemy (me), so go back to being friends and go back to sending private messages about me instead.
