Default Re: It's happening



I initially sent a PM off to members of our elite group of 11 to perhaps gently guide this thread into the abyss. Then I realized that you should never ask of someone something that you are not willing to do yourself.

While I fully agree that there is an onslaught of emotional waste that has occured as a result of one mans actions over at the jungle formerly known as CS I think maybe it is time to enjoy the Asylum for what it is and bury all this negativity.

It is clear that we have something better than what we left behind, I respectfully ask my fellow inmates to let this issue fall aside and die, we are better than that, that is why we came here.

Thank you,

Shawn

Well said my foxy friend.

I know I let my baser instincts take over when I saw how unjustly Tom, Dave, Peter and other elder members were being treated. However now that most of our brethren have entered the Asylum I will do my best to help continue to cultivate the type of community here at the Asylum that we've always had.

So from here on, I'll try to stay classy San Diego

I agree with you Shawn, about enjoying what we have and all.

I am really glad that this thread was here. It was a place to blow off some steam and commiserate with people that were/are going though the same things, same emotions. Without it I personally would have let my emotions get the better of me and done or said things over there that I would have regretted at some point. Nothing bad or illegal but I would have been disappointed in myself for sinking to as low a level as those that upset me.

That being said I think that it will eventually fall into the abyss on it's own.

I also think it is worth noting some of the bogus claims that Jon makes, just so other members can be aware of the deceit.

Great post Shawn. But I must admit, it is difficult for me. I was actually well behaved there for awhile, waited to see how things would turn, gave Jon the benefit of the doubt. But after seeing how my friends were treated so badly there, a place we all helped build into the splendid forum it was, and his attitude I just can't help myself. We have had some back and forth, and at this point I know i'm pissing him off but good. And that's very gratifying to me

I understand everyone's feelings.... CS was my first home in the slide down hill. Yesterday I deleted the link in favorites. I felt it was time to leave the old behind and look toward the future, herfing with my fellow inmates. I encourage everyone to do the same. CS is gone and I don't wish to visit there anymore and help JC's online hit rating.
