I miss Bob
- My minutes from the Web-Pixie meeting:
- Ashish and I discussed how challenging it is adapting with each new member.
- I would liken it to dating.
- I think we concurred that to us Web-Pix is a big playground.
- A grown up place to play and learn from each other.
- No member has ever attacked another prior.
- My own thoughts
- Personally, I was not happy to see circumstances arise that caused a member to leave on bad terms.
- Again, it's been my experience that when someone responds with anger they've been hurt in some way.
- I wish people on our planet didn't ever hurt each other.

For me, it's too far gone. The things that he personally said to me were wrong, cruel, and hurtful. I did not deserve it, I did not attack him, and I did not say anything mean to him. I didn't deserve to be told "she whores the blog", along with "she has a lack of vocabulary", "dirty minded imp"....just to name a few that are stuck in my mind. I didn't mean to bring it up again, but at 4:45 am this morning I couldn't sleep. My mother says I am too sensitive, maybe so. I don't have thick skin. I do know that. I am a strong person though, I will be fine. I have been through worse things in my life, wayyy worse, I don't think I will ever say "I miss...". Sorry.
Heather. Over 300 people a day look in on this blog. People are watching. There were many witnesses to what was going on here.
You may want to read my words again.
I'm not asking anyone to have thoughts for me.
Someone did a full page post ripping my artwork to shreds and warping my portrait to mock me. Supposedly a college kid from Canada.
It hurt badly.
Two years later I google myself and the link still comes up. Who looks foolish?
I don't think it's me.
Just as creativity breeds creativity in my belief - negativitity does the same.
Not a judgement just my belief.
Posting and reposting keeps bad feelings alive.
I just wanted everyone to know I was in NO way happy about the circumstances of last week.
Heather, dont let a few bad experiences spoil the fun.
"Someone did a full page post ripping my artwork to shreds and warping my portrait to mock me. Supposedly a college kid from Canada."
As I said earlier - These people should get out more often and try to get a life.
Holy crap!! What did I miss??
I am sorry someone wrote what he wrote to you heather. What post was this in response to?
Jozee,
Love the Bob Marley video!!
Judith,
Those were Paul's words to me.
Jo, Sorry about what happened to you. There are mean people everywhere. I'm trying to move on. :)
Thanks Judith, can't you just fall into his smile?
A beautiful, beautiful man gone far too soon. I would have been glad to have been one of his baby mothers.;-)
Heather what happened sucked.
Bullies bite the big one.
Yikes. Well, that's awful. Had Paul checked out the site before he joined. BTW, wasn't he a new member too? Who is he to make such comments?
he was from Canada, jozee? oh then i shall track him down and bring to him his comeuppance!
Csb you might really just be a cube.
Meaning presentation on the web can allow people to present what ever they want with complete anonymity.
Bullying from the shrouds.
There may not even be a Paul G.
A friend has told me many times this is the internet don't believe anything.
The only coincidence I pinpoint in these two instances is that Heather and I were both fairly new to blogging when we were what I call- blog bombed.
I don't repeat this online because emphasing it takes my power away and makes it about him the bully . So that's that.
I would advise everyone to put stat counters on their sites. www.statcounter.com is a pretty good one.
I understand some people can detect the invisible ones but you'll see everyone else and you can tell if someone is repetitively or obsessively checking your blog with their location if they haven't re- routed it.
So now, Ashish and I know we really exsist!
Jo,
That is so true about the internet. I need to get me a statcounter. :)

I never intended to insult anyone, I did not intend to attack anyone and this doesn't help.
If I hurt someones feeling I do deeply appologize and regret it - all I ever intended to do was express disappointment at a loss.
Instead, I was told that I should appologize for it.
For thos who didn't pay attention I was a member for nearly four months...
Not exactlly new.
Jozee, there is a real Paul G., just as real as online as offline and when someone says I think nudity is vulgar I get riled, when they say I called them a whore and I didn't I get riled.
And golly gosh when I get riled I complain.
All I ever wanted was to be friendly and I still consider each of you friends, dispite the misunderstanding.
I'm sorry that I hurt or offended anyone.
And dear Heather if you are going to quote me, please use actual quotes and not paraphrasing.
I'm sorry I hurt you.
