I'll take it you are referring to PMSP.

Well you see Andrew, as is widely known here, after her first post, where she was roundly condemned by many, PMSP apologised, and has not repeated it nor caused any further offense..

It's what we call "learning a lesson".

Something others may care to indulge in.

I am really amazed, Scooter, at your posting.

Are you really that unaware of how stalking behavior works?

So what if PMS Princess "has not made even a single post in the same vein" as her original stalking posting? (Emphasis added.)

The "vein" is not what matters. Every time PMS Princess posts here, that is an act of stalking.

I am stunned that you are willing to give PMS Princess the out that almost every stalker tries:

"I'm just shopping. It just so happens that I shop at the same store that she does."

"I'm just looking at books. It just so happens that I use the same library that she does."

"I'm just washing my clothes. It just so happens that I use the same laundromat that she does."

"I'm just .... It just so happens ...."

That is what the stalker does. She avoids doing anything overtly threatening. She just stalks. She just shows up again and again and again where she knows that her victim will be.

And every time she shows up, however inocuous her words may be, her message is always the same: "I am here, and I am watching you."

And now the people who run the board are actually considering suspending the victim.

It is appalling.

In contrast, I am not at all amazed that Gob is willing to give the stalker the same out.

To grasp the significance of what is happening, one would have to care about the justice of the matter, not merely the identities of the persons involved.

Something Gob will probably never care to indulge in.

Well thank you for your honest opinion Andrew, I will give it the serious thought and gravitas it so obviously deserves.

Because you--and others--have characterized it as a "threat"--which is, itself, an accusation. I wanted somebody's, anybody's, reason for calling it that, rather than, say, a "declarative sentence" or "nonsensical gibberish" or a "gargoyle." :?

I beg to differ, my only comment on it was;
Gob wrote:
Very well, for the board notice and not addressed to any specific party: this matter is now being reviewed by neutral counsel.
I have to admit, to be fair to the troll, that my translation of that would read;
"I've got my friend to rad this thread, he's totally independent and unbiased and he told me he'll be impartial, and he's going to tell me that I'm right and you are wrong. (If I give him a free blow job.)

Care to apologise?

But why not ask Lo what she meant? If people are misconstruing her words and intent she is the only person who can clarify.

M'learned counsel Andrew D has only further muddied the waters.

Hey, not bad for a newbie!

4/10.

Shows signs of improving, but must practice more.

You'll have to forgive me if I enjoy winding up intellectually challenged narcissists.

Oh well, we'll let others be the judge of who is doing the winding, and who is being wound, shall we?

I'm pretty sure that the intellectually challenged narcissist is being wound up like an eight day clock at the moment. :lol:

No Andrew, we have our own truths, what matters in such forums as these is what others believe or truths are.

Gob can speak for himself.

My increasingly rare forays into this forum are one of my ways of taking a break from being wound up by serious discussions among serious people. A bit like taking a break from a chess tournament by playing a game of checkers.

I admit, though, that I do find myself a bit exercised by the behavior which I see here more and more. Imagine yourself witnessing a group of schoolyard bullies pummeling an outnumbered victim, and you'll see what I mean.

What an odd way to chill out, somewhat masochistic.

One would think there were far better ways to spend one's time.

Mind you, seeing as Andrew's recent posts have been in the main, sneering, condescending, dummy spits with added bold and underline, his methods of taking respite from his other foums is queer in the extreme. One wonders why he bothers here at all.

You're a very odd bugger arent you? Amusing, but odd.

LoCA should not be permitted to return unless and until sha can provide proof that she has completed rehab. Simple as that.

I was not incarcerated in jail, I participated in work furlough.

I was subjected to domestic violence, and spousal abuse.

I had told many people about it, at length or in part, publicly and privately, whether or not they remember.

I have PTSD.

My ex is stalking me.




These are the facts, if you are going to ban me for that, then so be it.
