If Ryethil's postings bother you, why take the time to comment? 90% of the stuff here I don't comment on (bet I'm not alone in that statement). Some people like to write about their experiences, I for one like to read about them...Looking at a blank page and putting your thoughts and experiences down on them is something I'm not capable of, just not wired that way I guess. If putting her thoughts down on paper helps her out right now, let her be as it might be something she has to do for herself and no one else...

That's fine and dandy, more power to her if getting her thoughts in print helps her work things out, but can we PLEASE keep it to the Soap Box section? That is certainly more appropriate than keeping 20 different threads here in the TMT section.

It's tiring to hear all this drama spread across 10 different posts about the same damn incident. Please, blog it. My eyes bleed everytime there's an update.

+1 to a blog. He joined on the 18th btw. Why did he wait so long to be an "O Ring"?

How does one know they're being rude/upsetting people if no one tells them? No one is saying she can't write - just asking her to move it to a blog and out of the "total *motorcycle* talk" section.

Hell to be honest, I don't even open up 90% of the thread unless the title interests me or its a writer I enjoy reading, and of those I do read, I may respond to maybe 1% of them.

O.K. kids.

I moved all the 'disputed' posts I cared to find to the Soap Box. I left the original thread and anything about bikes where they were. If anyone cares to suggest more threads they want moved, let me know and I'll consider it.

Meantime, continue on with whatever it was you were doing. Cut the girl some slack and let her write whatever she likes if it helps her feel better. Read it or don't, as per your desire, comment, whine, cry, bleat or burp....whatever floats yer boat. Have fun with it, eh.

Everybody happy? Too bad, I'm all out of lollipops and right full of don'tgiveashit. Play nice.
