I’ve been a long time admirer of yours and I’m truly thankful for the platform you’ve provided. It’s offered a unique opportunity for growth, no doubt. I haven’t always agreed with every decision you’ve made, but more often then not, you’ve made an extraordinary effort to moderate this site fairly with tremendous patience & a grounded sense of fair play. At the end of the day, it’s the only reason I’ve hung around as long as I have.
That no longer seems to be happening here. The final straw for me happened recently on the national board. I was accused by etc of lying when I mentioned the fact that I had conceded posting something inaccurate in a recent post. Since she couldn’t find that post, she continued to raise doubt about my veracity, my credibility. When I presented her with the actual post proving my claim, she remained dubious. Instead of simply admitting she'd been mistaken, she doubled down. She continued by reminding me (for at least the 3rd time ) of an exchange we had several years ago in which I called her a ‘bitich’. Yes, I was upset by this continual reminder because I had apologized and expressed my regret about that to her directly years ago. Instead of interacting honestly & simply admitting a mistake, this damaged ego chose to point the spotlight back on her own perceived injury and my previous transgression.
This is a form of bullying. You’ve chosen to condone it.
What do you do? Delete my posts.
Your apparent hatred forJim and rampant deletion of his posts seems to come from an unbalanced place, especially compared with the tolerance you have for dan’s trolling. But of course, that’s just an opinion.
Anyway, I wanted to be clear about my deep appreciation for your tireless commitment and efforts here.
I expect to check in now & then to see if anything’s changed, but for now I’m moving on.

...the Lady pretty much says it all ryan...
...but you stopped listening a long time ago.
Akira was without a doubt the most credible poster on EB in recent years during a period most posters were more concerned with pushing their own rather narrow ego driven agenda rather than respect the diversity and tolerance once more common here.
I once managed a community radio station where my primary goal was to help inspire great broadcasters in a supportive atmosphere with the hope they would go on to inspire the same in others.
Maybe it's time you articulated what your goals for Earth Boppin are before the dream expires before it's time.

You just chased the best cat in the house out because you won't stop the favorites game.

An apology to Akira on your part would be the civel thing to do regardless of how you might feel in the moment...

...my personal reason for posting on EB for the past 20 years has been to better understand why others think like they do and to try to become a better "communicator" myself, something quite useful as a broadcaster most of my life including the present.
I fully understand that not everyone is meant to think exactly as I do and that virtually everyone I encounter has something to offer my own life if I am patient enough to look for it.
Without a doubt, you personally have been incredibly useful to me and like Akira, I appreciate and benefit from that. But just because our world is currently on a "crazy" course, does not mean we need to join it, but rather learn from it and hopefully become some part of the eventual solution.
As for wanting my ears scratched, why would that ever be considered a problem?
Did you know Mark Twain had 37 cats at one time...

...I suspect you don't have a clue how destructive your "mentoring" has become on EB ryan.
You might start with an apology and some indication you actually understand what she just said.
You are totally clueless these days....
...and I mean that in the most respectful and loving way.
When the best of the best moves on, you better know you've got some serious issues to address...

So you never saw any of Akira's posts as personal attacks on etc. Figures! I saw every interaction between Akira and ect. devolving into attacks by Akira, including the one Akira is complaining about.
You have a strange sense of fairness and equity

Generally speaking, Akira is a no nonsense poster that posts on both sides of issues and lets them speak for themselves.
Etc is more likely to post from her own perspective and psychologically devour those that don't agree with her.
As a result it often becomes an "I'm right" you're wrong proposition where only she can be a "winner" rather than to seek a "win win" perspective so that both parties can live to interact another time.
It used to be that by the time you posted on a board like EB you had the maturity level to respect the participants enough not to play these games too often.
The board quite frankly has been out of control for some time now.

"Generally speaking, Akira is a no nonsense poster that posts on both sides of issues and lets them speak for themselves."
I don't think that there are many here that share that view, Lee.
Whenever, her views were challenged, she launched personal attacks upon that poster. And she was quite consistent with that behavior.
She tried to impose her own rules for accuracy when posting when she didn't necessarily follow them here self. With that in mind, she chased me around for months with the term hypocrite, for supposedly violating those rules. In addition she maintained a vindictive campaign to either get me thrown out of here or get me to leave on my own. Later she teamed up with Jim to try and push me out.
She called etc. intellectually dishonest, when from my perspective it was she who was consistently the same.
She tried the same intimidation tactics on etc, Redhart, and anyone else who questioned her posts. Oh and she had a tendency to lie about what she posted, when confronted with past postings.
So you just keep on spinning that Lee. We all know what you support.

But were seeing it all around us. Not just on EB.

What frightens me even more, is Bopp may want it to happen, seeing the stuff he posts, points in that direction.

Posters like Akira are worth their weight in Gold. Not too many like that out there anymore.

She left once to supposedly play chess. I think she made an attempt at it. But she came back rather quickly. Time will tell if she actually stays away.

...perhaps you'll up your game enough Dan to make up the huge deficit her absence creates.
You might start by admitting she was a pretty good poster and developing some of those good qualities into your own style.
I certainly wish you and the others God speed with that.
I personally hope she comes back but with the incredibly toxic atmosphere that has evolved here that would seem unlikely in the short term.
Would you like her to come back? If so, let her and the rest of us know.

You're a large part of that toxic atmosphere with your constant baiting and trolling.

Hi Dan,
> We are not talking about "diversity and stimulating dialogue" here Lee.
Well what are you talking about? Have you ever tried diversity and stimulating dialogue? You should try it, many people really enjoy stimulating dialogue. Instead of talking about people and going after sources you could try making counterpoints. That is the way dialogue often happens, someone makes a point and then someone who doesn't agree makes a counterpoint.
I really think you might enjoy that more than lecturing people about the sources they use. It might also be more effective to show that a post isn't true than to just talk about the source.
Cheers
Jim
