Fuck this thread, I want to know if RSSChen and her family are doing better or not. Seriously >_<
I dunno. Wanna ask the people posting in this monster-in-the-making?
Then I take it this place…this Maple Street…is not unique?
Sure. I’m asking you the exact same question, straight back atchya. Last time I checked, you’ve posted more times in this thread than I have, so by extension, you don’t get to claim any high moral ground.
But to be fair, lowbrass does have a valid point. My earlier post is arguably a strawman, insofar as we both criticised RSSchen for her manner in the original 12 page trainwreck. However, I read the moderator’s request not to drag up personal ID info on Page 7 or Page 8, and I accepted the umpires decision and I DID NOT, at any stage condone, or partake in cyber sleuthing. It’s inaccurate to join dots that don’t need to be joined if you, or anyone, are suggesting that I behaved in a manner directly opposite the moderator’s requests. All I’m saying is that RSSchen brought a lot of condemnation on herself, and she was asking for THAT. If people then ignored the moderator’s requests regarding posting behaviour, I can’t condone that, and it’s something I didn’t do.
Oh - I went and re-read Giraffe’s warning post, and he said to not link to things from other threads to track people down in real life, not to not do it, period. My bad.
It would give the impression that the owner of the wallet did not care enough about her money to keep it secure. And if she further bragged that other people were not smart and quick enough to seize her cash, or remember her PIN and use it after securing the card, people might be inspired, not to steal from her themselves, but to show her how easily someone could steal from her. As in, “Look, I got $300 out of your wallet while you were refilling your drink. Here it is back, but don’t you think you should be more discreet from now on?”
There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture…
Thank you. Apology accepted. My apologies for making a posting that caused you to do that.
While I understand now how and why it was read that way, I never meant to imply that I was going to take steps to out her, or deliberately wanted to provide anyone else with a way to do it. It was yet another in a long line of posts wanting to get it through her skull “Look dipstick, you are NOT anonymous so quit saying you are just because you think your husband’s an idiot regarding computers.” It was wrong of me though, and I fully understand why people were slapping me upside the head for it. Again, I’m sorry.
I repeat my Subject line…what the? I didn’t “concoct” anything. I asked a question in the OP of this thread because I was very confused about how my post was received in the other thread. Giraffe answered my question. I realized I had missed a posted warning and should NOT have posted what I did there. I admitted that I was in the wrong and apologised. No matter. I’m still a villian to Rubystreak, who I like very much (and I apologise for mentioning in my OP), am considered a lowlife by several people in this thread, and to top it off now I’m concocting strawmen? Yikes.
You seem to understand why I was annoyed to be mentioned in your OP, so we’re cool, and I accept your apology. Consider it forgotten.
This may be ironic in a thread discussing not posting personal information about others, but this is too good to ignore. I’ve used advanced search technics to identify RSSchen’s twin sister. Since there isn’t any real personal information in my cite, and names have been changed, I believe it shouldn’t cross the line.
O.K., fair enough.
JUST NOW, you made a sincere apology, and I thank you for that. Before, not so much. The strawman I’m talking about is when you originally wrote:
Do you now understand that “taking something written in a previous thread and posting it in that thread”, wasn’t the problem? The problem was your taking the PERSONAL INFORMATION and SUGGESTING HOW ONE MIGHT DISCOVER HER REAL IDENTITY. The strawman was your suggestion that people were beating up on you just because you posted something from another thread. That’s NOT why they were beating up on you.
Since you have now apologized, I feel like this is settled.
I just read that thread. I even posted in it after I read it. Very entertaining thread. But I disagree that RSSchen and Bobby’s girlfriend are similar. Granted, they both clearly have some serious work to do on themselves, but I’d describe RSSchen as more of a narcissist, and Bobby’s girlfriend as more of a neurotic/psychotic whose behaviour is amplified by Bobby’s co-dependant personality. There are overlapping issues, to be sure. But they also are quite tangential as well.
Certainly, for the amateur psychologists amongst us - very entertaining fodder.
All right. I read the posts in the About forum, and I immediately typed what I felt like saying. Before I submitted I took the time to take a deep breath, and understand that the comments I wrote may not be appropriate for that forum. So I took a walk, started some laundry, got a BLT and came back.
But you know what, I still want to say what I was thinking.
MizGrand keeps bringing this up because she enjoys bragging about the fact that she is still cheating on her husband but won’t divorce him because he gives her money to support her substance abuse.
There, now I said what I was thinking. MizGrand, if you really want this to stop, then stop fucking bringing it up. I don’t want to be mad about this anymore, but I am not the one fishing around it. Take Frank’s words to heart and just stop!
What are you talking about? Links or something?

Sorry, this thread was the last one (in the Pit) about this old old issue.
I thought you were talking about this thread where she also brings it up ATMB. Funny. She’s perseverating, isn’t she? Why change your name if you’re going to keep mentioning the trainwrecks all the time? One has to wonder.
Oh that is priceless! Her trainwreck might not have been that bad if OTHER people had heeded the mod’s warnings? You have got to be kidding me? What a perfect example of “victim mentality” - it’s always somebody else’s fault, never mine. I’m the victim!
Jesus H. Christ on a pogo stick. How many times does somebody have to call a spade a spade before you’ll stop calling it a shovel? RSSchen? The reason your threads about giving blowjobs to your neighbour became trainwrecks is because you’re an idiot who thinks being an idiot is something to be proud of.
This quote above is all the proof I need. An attention whoring narcissitic, dumb fuck idiot.
Nice of her to provide one-stop-shopping, so nobody has to risk mod wrath by sifting through multiple threads to build their case. Very considerate.
I wanted to answer this but by the time I saw it the thread was way down the page. I wasn’t going to bump this thread just for a one line answer, but since someone else did I’ll take the opportunity.
Thank you. I’m very relieved and I appreciate this response.
Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. I was actually going to say something more like
then I realized we already had one too many Pit threads going on about jackels and I didn’t want to make the Offical Pit Hall Monitors work too hard.
I do congratulate Quiddity Glomfuster on her insight:
Right. See, she’s already decided she won’t post something like that in IMHO again. Problem solved.
