As one of the people that I assume she's making insinuations about, I don't particularly appreciate it. If that IS what she's insinuating, I suggest she back it up with proof of same, else STOP making the not-so-thinly veiled accusation.
Which is why I specifically made a VERY conscious effort to avoid the girl after the last round of insinuations. And to not spend so much time here myself. It's all crazy.

Yes, but she does the SAME thing every time. Claims someone on here did something, then sits back and refuses to say who it is. And yes, while we may not know everyone's real name and address, if she KNOWS for a fact that a certain poster did it, it would be best to know who that poster is for future reference.
Honestly, I am sick of the games, don't take part in them.
--------------------
And that's fine, but there are a few who have been guilty of the same. Saying that someone sent them a PM or I received a PM stating such and such, but won't say who. You may have been guilty of the same?
I would assume if someone contacted her X about this site they were probably from this site. Given all the fake profiles...one would assume. I don't know, I read it as a warning for those of us who do post details to be careful on who we trust.

Sucks that someone would contact him and direct him here. Scary. I mean, I'm not claiming anything false about my personal life on here, but some of what I say is not meant for BM to hear. It's sad that someone would violate that out of spite or revenge or jealousy or just plain ol' bitchiness.

I recieved a PM from someone once, which I expressed to the board, and int eh SAME thread, when the majority of the board requested to know, I told them who it was.
Now JL is claiming she had someone contect her ex outside the board...but she won't tell. Sorry, that is kindergarten level bullsh!t.

General reply to Mrs B: I understand you're upset, but posting this here and OTOB serves little purpose except to stir drama when things have been quiet, and honestly? You know that.
A)It's not a public service announcement that serves to warn anyone else - not when you won't name names, and not when people here already are very wary of each other. You've been around long enough to know that this group isn't going to change their behavior or who they trust based on innuendo, especially over another drama that revolves around you.
B)If it's not a PSA, then its to satisfy your own need to get the last word in. If that's what works for you, so be it. I doubt it got the reaction from the culprit you were hoping for though - they probably saw your post, laughed, and then felt satisfied that their arrow hit the mark.
Maybe its time to try something different: if you can't ignore the nonsense, confront the culprit. Handling this drama the same way over and over and over again isn't working; their actions are escalating. Bullies are cowards at the core, and there's nothing more cowardly than hiding behind a computer screen while wreaking havoc on someone's life. I say drag them out of the shadows and let them know you're not taking their crap quietly.
...I really don't get their attraction to you. I'd think a board member would've moved on to another poster by now, so their fixation with you makes me wonder if they know you IRL. Just my take on it.

I don't see where she said she knows for a fact who it was. And absent that - what is there to do except hurl accusations around? Even if her ex knew who it was - I can't imagine he would tell her.

It actually wasn't in the same thread, but my only point wasn't to bring up the details of that posting, but to specify that maybe people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

And people who suspect that others on this board have acted inappropriately need to TELL people who those posters are.

[quote]I what is there to do except hurl accusations around? [/quote]
----------->> Don't mention it at all? What was the point of mentioning it, OTHER than to create drama? The reality is many people aren't even here that much anymore. Some people have been totally absent. Sooooo she's putting out a warning about people who.. don't come here anymore?? Or others who are here infrequently? What's the point?
Other than to create drama. And as I said, I for one, am tired of the not so veiled insinuations and I'm with whoever said if she's got an accusation to make, then come out with it. I have NOTHING to hide. To quote a Real Housewife, "bring it bytch!" But don't be a [censored] and hide behind this "well, SOMEONE did such and such, nah nah nah". I think Java made another excellent point.. I think MrsB VASTLY overestimates people's ACTUAL interest level in her. And for someone to go to that length, they'd likely be personally invested. That's not something a random stranger does. That's someone with a personal ax to grind. I HIGHLY doubt it was someone from any site, UNLESS it was someone who actually knew her, in real life. Friend, co-worker, whatever. But I think it's easier to blame a nameless, faceless person than to think someone you may trust in your actual life, has betrayed you.

I can see that point too, however in my real life (as I can only speak of mine) no one (friends/co-workers, etc.) knows about this site. I have told no one except immediate family members and they would have no clue the name of the site unless they looked on my computer.
As for others maybe your friends and co-workers have been directed to this site by you. I have not, personally, done that. And I'm kind of glad :)
