I repeat: It's time for some honesty by those in charge here. Ageless has no credibility here any more, under any pseudonym. It's time to dismiss him as a moderator, and remove all his moderator accounts. Good grief! It made the news. Beethoven attempts to consolidate hold on seti cafe Reality Internet Personality |

What about a profile that my sons 7th grade science class complained about (clicked on the bad vote) and yet, it remains? Mike, you can thank the Three Trollateers for that. That is the name I have given to: BEETHOVEN, LENA [Fuzzy] and MISFIT. Get rid of those 3 and I guarantee the boards will be a much better place to communicate with friends and associates. Think about it. Sit back and really read what the Three Trollateers are posting. Look at what they do when anyone does what they don't like. They lash out. Don't read their posts as that of friends. 2 of the 3 used to be my friends until they were turned to the dark side, by the Sith KING. As for hiamps thread: All the posters who have nothing to do with what's going on have quit posting in his thread. What does that tell you. Think about it, really think....

What about a profile that my sons 7th grade science class complained about (clicked on the bad vote) and yet, it remains? Why would they complain about it? 7th graders over here learn the word penis in biology classes. It's not like it's a picture of a woman with her tits or arse thrust in your face like some posters like to have in their profiles. Reality Internet Personality |

What about a profile that my sons 7th grade science class complained about (clicked on the bad vote) and yet, it remains? I'm not sure what is wrong with it Anne. I'll be glad to take it down as soon as certain posters start treating women here with a little more respect. Reality Internet Personality |

What about a profile that my sons 7th grade science class complained about (clicked on the bad vote) and yet, it remains? Well, I'm too "young" here to have noticed things of the kind (women treated with few respect) but I know that these things happen in communities. Unfortunately ! :( This profile won't be edited, or deleted, soon, I'm afraid ... Anne © anne schmidt - L'Humeur Bleue |

Good morning Anne, Champ, attackers Es and Siran...and everyone else! Well, my new kitten Tippi is still in hiding. I've moved the doggies over to a different part of the house, and Tippi should be getting hungy soon, so I hope she'll make an appearance. Tippi is my first female cat, and as you can see, some of them are a bit more difficult to deal with. ;) |

Well, I hope you are wrong about that and that I will be able to edit it soon, but in the mean time, there still are many respectful posters left here (both male and female) for us to talk to. :-) Reality Internet Personality |

Good morning Anne, Champ, attackers Es and Siran...and everyone else! Morning Beets. Hope you slept well? Put an old fish in front of your door. Then you will catch the cat. (Catfishing) lol |

You're right Champ, we'll have to wait for Mike to be sure. But, as long as we're just speculating on this, I think that Mike may have considered this link in Es's profile to be a bit much for 7th graders. I won't post the [url] tags around it, so as not to repeat the offence. ;) http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/view_profile.php?userid=15107 If you follow Es's BOTD link, the highlighted message contains a link to the August 1st 2006 BOTD member klittle6557's profile pic. This shows a young lady with enormous breasts, not bared mind you, but certainly in a scanty bikini top. The exceptionally large size of the breasts is in itself somewhat sexually explicit. I think that this breast shot is likely a doctored pic rather than a "live" shot. It is in fact, probably THE most extreme sexually explicit of the thousands of BOTDs that Misfit has ever put on. Typical of Es and her trouble-making style, she featured this most extreme example of BOTD, as if it were a "typical" BOTD example, to make her point in the most quarrelsome way possible. So, this is much more a reflection of what Es is like, than what the BOTD thread is like. ;) But, of course, let's wait for Mike, and then we'll know for sure. |

No, what my sons teacher called me about was the references to cutting off the penises. (lol). It had nothing to do with the cnn link. They never got that far anyway. The word penis was ok, it was how it is presented in such a negative (and borderline vulgar) manner. Suffice to say, there will be no "Indian Head Middle School" Seti@Home team. No big deal, whats offensive to me might not be to others and vice versa. I don't have a problem with it, but I do feel it should be addressed if my sons teacher has a problem with it. |

LOL, Yes, it is man-hating and vulgar. I just took my screenshot of it for posterity! (pun intended) I think I'm developing "Archiver" tendencies, as described in Flame Warriors. Are you at work, already? |

Well I only put that in because I have had been accused of wanting to cut of men's penises. I have no idea why they think I would want to do that, but there are some strangely insecure men out there who think that when a woman disagrees with things they might do it means they want to emasculate them. I understand your son's teacher’s point of view though. I refrained from recommending my pupils join seti because I was worried they would stumble across these boards. It would have been irresponsible of me to expose them to some of the things that are allowed to go on here, especially considering that I teach at a girls school. Reality Internet Personality |

Nice duck, weave and bob, Es. Sure we believe your good intentions of only trying to protect the school children from exposure to material like this, which you yourself have put on. You are so transparent, in spite of your "cleverness", Dearest. Hahahahahahah! |

Morning Beets, Michael, Champ, Anne, others. It's colder here, I even had to close some windows because the wind was too cold. Nice. Yes, Beets, a small kitten could be scared of all the fuzz with a new home, dogs, new humans, etc. Put some food where she might be hiding and then see if she won't come out to munch a bit. And you can see if she has been visited the litterbox. I remember the first days I had my Bouncer Jupiter, she hid in the box under her climbingtree. First she hid under the bed, but then I tempted her with some food to come out, and then I took her and showed her where the food usually will be served and where her litterbox is placed, but she stayed under the bed for hours untill late at night, where she took a round in the appartment and visited the foodbowl and the litterbox. And then she roamed a bit and found the climbingtree box and then that was her preferred place to stay. It took her several days to stop staying there all the time. And she was a grown cat who was able to fight for herself. Beets, maybe we should postpone my visit till later? How is your father? I hope you get some sleep now and then. And check your gmail, please. "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me |
