Re: seeking guests for TV show

[Guest guest]

Whims.

 

What site are you talking about??  There's no files on the left side.  There's

no files link at all.  Are we talking lpaonline or dwarfism.org?  Did I ever ask

you who the moderators are?  Even though I'm impressed of your detail

description of each one....I never asked, and do I need to know or care.  I

don't appreciate you talking down to me like i'm a 5 year old.

 

Oh yea...I almost forgot.  How did you put this so elegantly.

 

" It took me 2 clicks, but you may well have some hand-eye coordination problem

I'm completely unaware of. "

 

Well...what if I did have this problem?  You making fun of me?  What if I am

partially blind and can't see the screen clearly??  Does it give you the right

to come back with such a remark?  Don't respond saying you didn't mean anything

by it.  It's obvious it was meant to be sarcastic.  Also, someone who is

unfamiliar with the site would not know to click on files or whatever link to

locate the personal sites.

Craig --

Being that you are not, and never have been a moderator of this group, you

don't know what you are talking about in any of your half dozen or so posts

today. You have no idea what sort of garbage they get sent privately. You

have no idea how hard they work at trying to make this place accessible all

the while keeping the " I've always wanted to meet a midget of my own! " posts

off. Is that censorship or is that giving us a place as a community where we

don't have to deal with the garbage we deal with on a daily basis?

You have been allowed a lot of freedom in the email bombings of your site.

Everytime you have changed one pixel on it, you announced it and the posts

went through. You whine that Whims & Adelaide have not included it in the

list of dwarfism sites -- have you every written them to ask to be included?

Or was it just easier to throw an accusation?

Thanks Bill.

I wasn't slamming the website.  I was just offering a suggestion or 2.

Re: Re: seeking guests for TV show

Awww, thank you, Bill! We needed this! With all the unfair criticisms

and blame we are receiving, your kind words of support are a breath of fresh

air to us both. And much appreciated too.

And I'd like to add (even though I'm guilty of occasionally lobbing

Also, Craig, the LPA Online web site has nothing to do with this list.

In fact, this list has nothing to do with LPA period. And Dan

Kennedy is not webmaster of LPA Online. He publicly announced his

retirement from his years of dedicated volunteer service over three

(?) years ago. Slamming Whims, Rose or Dan for the flaws of the LPA

website is pointless.

Just to let you know, LPA finally approved a budget to hire someone to

upgrade and maintain the website (it will have another new look, and

professional programming soon). However, if you're interested in

helping, I'm sure they'd be glad to have you. LPA runs on people

volunteering to help. Just go to the website and click on the

Craig,

What site are YOU talking about?

At the Dwarfism group on there is indeed a files and and links listed on

the left hand side of the group.

You were the one that kept referring to 50 moderators and Whims was just

clarifying that there are only 2.

It is confusing when YOU continue to make comments about the LPA site when

posting to the Dwarfism group.

Actually, I was the Bradford who moderated the list with Dan K. way, way,

way back. Probably the first person in history to ban Soares from a

mailing list. I was kind of an a-hole back then.

was it really necessary to metion you are the first person to ban

someone? How does that make you feel?

Cathartic came to mind..lol.  Just thinking that sounded so challenging...almost

argumentative...Probably a really good friend and it is all in the reading of

the post.  Yawn.  The anger and venting on this thing sure gets tiresome, but

then it is like any family I guess...Much like the holidays year round.  Love

Ban or moderate? Ban means kicking someone off to the point they

aren't allowed back. Moderate is simply having to approve every

message that person sends to the list.

Like the 5th Beatle:P, you were the 4th Bradford:D. Well, that is, I

know of the 3 sons only, so excluding any sisters they may have?

Personally, I thought both Bradfords were good as moderators. Sure, if

all 3 of us, or the 2 of them and I were in a room we'd disagree on

things, sometimes on major things, but all in all I felt they were fair.
