What I think is hurting the moot the most are the political threads that drive people to anger, frustration, and to be banned or leave the moot, and in that way the Moot is becoming unfriendly.

I don't have a problem with people talking about their opinions or beliefs.But as for that Ruinel she tends to flame at people even when she doesn't know what she is talking about.She had in open forum told me to kiss her --- well you get the picture,I had asked a question to another member and she took it out of context and came back with that.Got to give it to her though,she's pretty original.But when she (as other members have)is trigger happy you get warned.Lots of people get warnings but it's up to her and others if they want to heed them.And obviously she doesn't care about the rules,considering that she has created several alter egos for herself.Watching people argue can sometimes be entertaining but it can grow old very quickly.

ANYTHING in the General Messages forum can grow old fast. Its the worst forum, one because its the most used, second because its always up in flames.
Oh what I would give for BB back in the LotR movies forum instead of this nasty dirty GM forum....

I haven't follow this whole affair, but I must say that I finf it amusing that a member with less than 50 posts is so full of lessons to a long time member as Ruinel (unless you have also registered under a second username...). If the admins have decided to ban her I'm sure they have a good reason for it and they have all my support, but you're nobody to began a thread to censore Ruinel's attitude. Just my opinion, of course.

i dont care if someone wants to lie, most people wouldnt need to lie to huge extremes (like when i told Lin that i was 40 years younger than i actually am), i dont think id be affected if someone lied to me on the computer... that truly was a great post FM, especially loved it when you called the person a "nobody"

No harm meant to anyone, but in the interests of NOT creating further infighting, I suggest that this thread be closed immediately.
Well here, I'll try it myself... closing. closing...? CLOSING!!!

It seems that after all the point of this thread is to vent about the problem you have had with Ruinel. She has been banned, so it doesn't seem fair to me to keep speaking about it since she cannot reply.[B/] Quote:

Fat Middle- I believe the thread was created to discuss lies and deception. That is the topic. what inspired the thread was the bans that were taking place. after an initial ban was issued and ready to be lifted. Ruinel created multiple accounts to get around it. That is all. I don't think QAL made this a thread to discuss Ruinel, but lies and deceit. It just happened to go that way, with Ruinel being one of the most active in the thread last night with each account she could make, almost faster than they were ban, until she finally resorted to the ano account.
BoP- What's your point? Are you saying that because QAL is a friend of mine that she is more privileged than you or any other member? I'm getting damned sick and tired of this. First it's JD, now it's QAL. Let me point out that you have also been one that has been cut slack much more than you deserve. Funny how you call me friend in PM. Is that the reason you've never been banned?

I agree with those who have said that it's unfair to discuss Ruinel without her being able to defend herself. So this is her side in response to SGH's above post:

Yeah - I felt a little silly being 'taken in' - but it's really no big deal. I've been fooled before and it'll probably happen again (I have been told quite authoritatively that they have my picture by the dictionary entry for "gullible"! ) I'm sorry I reacted about it so much this time... it's just that I DO try to be friendly to new members and have tried to act that way MANY times, probably including some others who have opened up another account (OK... who was 'KING OF ENTMOOT'??... really!! ) It's all really no big deal to me... I can quite easily laugh about it and move on. If the admins feel there WAS some effort to circumvent rules, etc... well, that may be another matter. However, even then, a full hearing of both sides is always necessary... and, if everyone's tempers are caught up in the heat of the moment - then all sides need to 'cool down' a bit before they can have the right wisdom to make a proper judgement. Each party should also get the opportunity to clarify - or retract - any previous statements.
