Just a question

I'm not sure what good emailing a moderator would do seeing as how I've witnessed a couple participate in the foolishness.

There is NO USE writing a moderator of the board that I spoke of in one of my earlier posts, because a moderator said something highly negative about my org and others. Other moderators saw the post and while they locked the thread, the comment remains.
What else is there to say??
This is why I don't post there any more. For me, enough is enough, even from the Bougie And Pretentious.
Sincerely,
TRSimon

I thought about it, but decided against it. As you or someone else said, it's not that serious, and I'm sure they know. But now I realize I'm not the only one who sees it, so everyone else know too. I'm done with it. I love my house!

I tried not to respond to this post, but oh well. If it steps on toes, then oh well. Moderators, please delete if you feel the need to.
I think the air around GC stinks. The funky attitudes in responding to posts are NOT needed...and I have seen enough of that on the boards....also, I notice a lot of the cyber cliques, among other things.
And DON'T let an interested party ask the wrong question!!! Even if she didn't know any better, she would still be subject to the stank remarks that some members tend to dish out.
Bottom line, I think this will solve the problem: If you don't have anything nice to say, send a Private Message, or don't say anything at all!!! but hey, I don't know, maybe some people on GC THRIVE off of Drama!!!!!

OK, So nearly everyone agrees that the air is FOUL. What are you going to do to change it? Let's not perpetuate the prob. Just solve it...If that's possible.

Patronizing and/or sarcasm at its best.

Funky, funky, funky
Yeah I agree with all of the above. Some GCpeople and their comments and attitudes really do stink. But you know what? I don't take none of this seriously. I know what organization and what members you are talking about but it really doesn't bother me. It doesn't change my opinion about that organization because some of them are really cool with me. I just got a friendly e-mail from one. Let's not get all worked up about this. It's not that serious and those who take it that serious (members and interests) need to get a life!! for real. The sad thing about all of this is that there are some interests who read that negative mess and it may change their hearts against them.
Now I would like to thank all the Zetas for their comments that kept me in this school this long reading this when I should have been long gone.
I'm hooked again

This is a prime example of that misinterpreting that occurs on the internet. Because I know Novella a little better than you might, I can say I KNOW she didn't mean her post to be patronizing or sarcastic. Sometimes assuming can lead to unnecessary bitterness.
Back on topic - 
I love my sorors, and I love interacting with them. I also love the ladies of DST, ZPB and SGRho, and I love interacting with them as well. I post wherever I find interesting topics or where I have anything to say. All I can say is to not let individuals taint your GC experience... I suck it up and keep on steppin.

Sweetest Diva,
Im not discounting the fact that you may KNOW her better than me, nor
do I want to beat a dead horse, but we are talking about a person that has not one time posted on this message board out of over 300 posts and now out of the clear blue, shows up with a post which I found to be flat-out patronizing and unnessecary. 'nuff said.

I post sporadically and personally I feel that some folks take the title "moderator" a little too seriously - they set a negative tone on their boards and stomp around other boards like they are the FBI! Remember: Attitude reflects Leadership! The constant bark to "Do a Search" doesn't help either. Topics get repeated - BIG DEAL - maybe I don't care what someone who doesn't even participate in the board anymore said about a topic last year. This is not new nor unique to GC - there are a number of BGLO boards and chat rooms that get funky and ignorant and it is unfortunate.
