Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Betty, I assume you are referring to me. If you know me AT ALL, and have read my posts throughout this past year or so, I rarely get involved in the arguing that goes on, I don't like it. This last time, I got involved because some things were said that were wrong. You can be SURE I will not get involved ever again. I have no problem with you naming names rather than you referring to me as another on the group that feels she knows it all. If you are NOT referring to me, I apologize. I think the regulars in this group know me enough to understand where I was coming from and KNOW I don't usually interfer. You do not know me. I am the last person who feels she knows everything.....ONCE AGAIN I WAS GIVING MY OPINION. This is really a shame.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 HI Betty, Exacty. There is another group, person, etc. that has been TOTALLY OVERBEARING on this group. It¹s offensive and harmful. Enough is enough.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 My vote: There is a great temptation on groups, for the mommy-minded (no names, no genders, and absolutely no hints as to who would fit that epithet)to bring out managing behaviour JUST because other people are arguing points instead of always opting for huggy-feely communions. Arguing has more relevant and intellectually wholesome meanings in the dictionary than the simplistic notion of ROWING. I say the sort of attitude that no one should be allowed to raise their voice in-case-it-disturbs the sensibilities of some other individuals is unhealthy, and I note it has done a great dis-service to the grown-up mentalities in many groups, whose capacity and choice to handle the bare brunt of truths and make an intelligent, and intelligible, way through their fields of interest with others of mature mind, is hampered or killed off at the roots by expulsions to appease those of more flimsy emotion. The thing is surely tetchiness and bickering are the very signs of being ill. Illness which is so often hidden, or in its initial phases is not obvious, has a way of letting other mammals in its group understand that something is wrong. No one who posts here does so as a casual voyeur. And personally I welcome the atmosphere of adult engagement which continues in this group. Long may it do so. I only dislike emotional blackmailers, which behaviour ought to have no place amongst grown up and educated adults plying their empassioned points of view. Long may those capable of speaking their minds have a mind to speak them. > > OK I AM SICK OF THESE STUPID ARGUING POSTS.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 What I meant was that someone who is a " know it all " is exhibiting a negative attitude; and that you never do that. No one actually " knows it all " ; but some people act as though they do. And act as though everyone else should defer to their " superior " knowledge. As I said before; not pretty. And something Venizia would IMHO never do. And, yes; I meant it as a compliment. You display an attitude that IMHO we all would do well to emulate. > > Posted by: " venizia1948 " nelsonck@... > <mailto:nelsonck@...?Subject=%20Re%3A%20Overbearing%20need%20to%20be%2\ 0right%2FIlanar> > venizia1948 <venizia1948> > > > Mon Aug 25, 2008 1:25 pm (PDT) > > OH!!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 If it is not clear that I'm saying I do not find a particular [negative] attitude attractive [while not specifically attributing it to anyone; and more specifically NOT attributing it to the recipient of my post] then perhaps I need to speak [type] in more simple terms. But as I try [not always successfully] to be accurate in my communication that may be difficult for me. It is also probably clear to the more astute members of the group that it is probably far more likely that I personally suffer from the negative attitude that Venizia thought I was applying to her than that she would suffer from that negative attitude. But it's a lot easier to see negative traits in others than in myself. > > Posted by: " lmneedham " lmneedham@... > <mailto:lmneedham@...?Subject=%20Re%3A%20Overbearing%20need%20to%20be%20\ right%2FIlanar> > lmneedham <lmneedham> > > > Tue Aug 26, 2008 2:52 am (PDT) > > > > Interesting choice of words 'not pretty'. > > Think about what you are actually implying by that usage. > > > > > > What I meant was that someone who is a " know it all " is exhibiting a > > negative attitude; and that you never do that.
