I damn sure don't. Not even the gist. I have no idea what that other site is, either.
But I'm also not getting super involved and typing long posts.  I just pick on some of Tom Earp's incoherent posts and that's as deep as it gets to me.

Good for you. I personally don't think my post was all that long or "super involved" (I addressed only the people that personally PMed me to try their site in hope that they might realize that their recent posts had a tendency to turn people off to it).

As deep as you get?
What ever?
Maybe you should really find it out!
Oh, maybe some should take a look at "The Other Site" before there is a come to judgment of Hell hath no fury!
Oh, have a super day and is time for dinner!d

Yes, and I do apologize for my part in the hijack. I have no regrets about what I said, it was an unemotional, rational request, and one that I would repeat.
I don't know of any trainwreck at the other site, but I have been on there but infrequently of late and not at all today. Generally speaking the site always functioned just fine. My only issue was the constant spillover to this site, the unwillingness to let go.
I don't know who PM'd me on that site, but if you read this, you'll probably want to PM me here instead. I have been banned from GF, I presume as a result of my above post here, so I can neither access that PM nor even know who sent it.
I wish everyone on both sites nothing but the best. GC is not a bad place. Nor is GF a bad place. I do think they need to be seperate, and the neverending fight needs to come to an end.
Part of what I said in a post on GF months ago that has since been removed is worth being reposted (I don't have the whole thread saved, but I typed my post out in Word first and never deleted the document):
"the unwillingness to concede wrongdoings goes to both sides. Brute force solves wars, but concessions also solve wars. Stubborn persistence sometimes kills everyone involved, unless the other side has brute force, in which case of course only one side is decimated. It’s not easy, or possible many times to concede a fight. But sometimes it’s the best course of action, even when everything in you screams otherwise."

The fact that you were banned from HPRL for a post here - a simple plea for sanity that included praise of HPRL - speaks volumes.
Please note - we may have snarkiness here, but at least you can criticize GC without being immediately banned!

pbear, you are definitely the bigger person in this scenario, you obviously tried to give the other site a fair shot. The fact that you've been banned from the fuzzy-wuzzy world of happy, shiny people for advocating decorum is the height of irony. I believe I can respond best with a series of smilies:
Here's you:
Here's BA reading your post on GC:
Here's BA letting her batsh*t crazy true colors come out:
Welcome back to GC, like someone else said, it can get snarky here, but at least you aren't stalked, kept tabs on and "regulated" by unstables. Here's GC (usually):

I agree about pbear. Initially I thought she was saying that she didn't know what was going on but was going to play the mediator, anyway.  Instead, she actually has access to both sites and has some idea, even if she's not 100% on all the details.
This whole thing is just another "board battle." These things are nothing new. As long as they stay on the boards and don't translate into real life (supposedly this one already has, right?).

Earp's site is NOT welcoming at all.
Neither of my orgs are available in the list of orgs. SAI with 103 years of history and Phi Sig Pi with 92 years of history.
We're all greek, Earp.

Well, if you would ask a simple question then it might be answered instead of being a ??
You start stuff and do not seem to want to check out things and ask questions!
So, what is your problem?
To damn lazy?
Follow the crook of a sheapard if you so desire!  !
As I said in a PM, if you signed up, and asked, then it would have been added at your request!
I have no clue what your agenda is but you want to be sad, so be it.

Why is this Thread not closed as it seems to be going no where?
Oh, never mind, I think I know why!

Because you are providing more Earpisms for the GC Dictionary.

Awww . . .see, you were wrong. Tom is very welcoming - can't you feel the welcome and the love just from this post? Who wouldn't want a whole board of that???
