The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

But it is apparently acceptable behavior to trash what I bring here? Is that what you're saying Hair?

2J's post to Carton yesterday was ABSURD. As yours to me is now.

Deal with it. I may stay. I may not. It ain't your decision.

I tried to make peace and you spit in my face.

Thanks for telling me what kind of friend you really are.

You say "for people" like you aren't coming along. Just ride up with Ruthy, Glen can sit in the back of the pickup. After all, I'm only 180 miles away.

I can't subject you fine HHDs to a 5 year old, a 2year old and a 1 year old, those who don't hate me already will by the end of the moot :-0. Needless to say, at those ages babysitting is hard to come by. *sigh*

Please, guys...I'm no good at making peace, but can we please not be hasty? No more words we'll regret? Can we all just let the matter go, or speak civilly to each other about it?

OK everyone.

Let's have some pints, a few apologies and call it a truce. The Fellowship should not be broken for words said in anger!!! Our Quest stands upon the edge of a knife, yet hope remains while company is true.

We can and should start fresh now that we have a better understanding of what bothers each other. I don't want to lose any of you!!!

PLEASE!!!

I tried being civil. I spilled my guts and "she of the stompy foot" just walked all over 'em.

So the problem really was my comments about public schools. HHHHMMMMM

So you want to be able to come onto this thread and trash the religion FORUM, and posters, but are going to run off in a snit when someone else voices their opinion and you don't agree with it.

Why didn't you just act like a man and come out and we could have hashed it out, but you let it fester and was sitting back waiting to jump on me for any little thing you could.

not spamming came across as mother hen-like

I never said not to spam, that is a lie. Do you always make it a habit to misrepresent what others say. I said I didn't mind spam, I was giving a warning that that sort of thing may get you into trouble.

As far as talking about other posters, I said it the other day, I'll say it again, when you call people by name and proceed to call them the ugly names you and carton were, common curtesy says you should 1) ping them, 2) send the posts privatly, 3) go to the other thread and say that. That is my opinion, not the rules. If my voicing a post like that makes me a mother hen, so be it. I won't tell you the name I would give a grown man calling others names where they can not defend themselves.

But this doesn't seem to be the place where I can do that anymore. I dunno, maybe ecurbh can devise some sort of interactive chart on the Forum that lists what is acceptable discussion and what is not.

It is the place, but your the only that you think should be able to say what ever the heck you want, but the rest of us have to tip toe around and not upset Corin. Don't talk about that you might upset Corin. He's just venting, we let him vent. Right, but you doesn't extend the same curtsey to anyone else.

You don't like being ignored either do you. That is what I was doing yesterday, ignoring you. That is what I will now resume doing. Say anything you want Corin, I really don't care, IMO, your the fly in the onitment here. The rest are better people or more passive then me, I don't know. I don't care when it comes to you.

Becky

Please. Enough of this.

We all have a great friendship here and I refuse to give up any of you without a fight, dammit!

Whatever has to be said, let it be said now and be over with. I'm not letting any of you go. If anyone leaves, I will torment you with breakfast pings and freepmail until you cry "UNCLE!"

ARRRRGGGHHHH!!

Ruthy is losing the little mind she has left.

No Becky. I didn't like you in the religion wars either. But I didn't have to talk to you over there.

I actually cringed when I saw you come over here, but I thought you wouldn't stay 'cause you had no interest in Tolkien. I tried to make it work.

So, I apologize to you and you also spit in my face.

Well fine. I see how you are too.
