Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.

Look at me, I've got the moderator hairband on tonight.  We're going to have a little chat tonight, all of us, and it's something I've put off doing for a few days.  Tonight, it's a go.  We've tried very hard around here to stay out of the whole "WoP" blog mess, despite what certain people like to claim.  Have we poked around some at Maria?  Sure. We're human, after all, and she poked first.  All we really want to do, though,  is sit around on our fat asses and talk about food, babies, pets, alcohol, religion, politics and anything else that strikes us.  If people who lurk here are honest with themselves and have more intelligence than a parsnip, you'll have admit that.  We've tried like hell to be upfront and honest, as evidenced by the fact so many visit us and happily carry our conversations and sitemeter info back to their hidey-holes in order to discuss it privately.  But here's the deal...it's being talked that Maria thinks someone from here is running GMWoP and if that's so, I can't blame her for being pissed at us, can you?  I thought not.

I know who runs GMWoP and a few days ago I contacted one of them, asking that they take it down and, in return, we'd not poke anymore either.  She said they would.  They did not; it was a lie.  In fact, last night they had a nice, big conversation about it all and decided that it was fine to throw some of the Daisies under the bus in order to get to Maria, even though Maria had already posted she was taking FWoP down.  I say it's not fine.    I say it's all fair game now.

This was said on SIP last night, among many, many other things.  Oh, such *interesting things, last night...other nights...but this is where we start.

won said... And you know what? Since it purge night, I might as well say what I have alluded to several times recently.

CPT was not alone. I was the other part of GMWOP. In fact, I think I wrote more of the posts there than she did. And AP evidently knew that, from her letter to CPT, but didn't come to me and ask me anything.

Furthermore, GMWOP started after I gave AP the chance to speak with me about my revelations that I wanted to share in order to help her protect her group...and she rudely responded to me by saying she didn't want to talk to me. Maybe she herself should have eaten some of that humble pie tonight."

 

So, Wendy, CPTWife, take GMWoP down.  Now.  Or we'll share some more gems from SIP...your choice.  And by the way, it's amazing as hell which oddfellows can become friends behind the scenes when things are just *wrong. 
*clicks my ruby slippers*

you're right, it does look like proof. it just sounds all the same to me these days. what someone did in the past doesn't concern me as much as their present actions. i realize it looks like proof, but i've worked in web programming and design, as well as with email stuff extensively. i know it's easy to make something look different.

i can see fwop actually doing that - using spypig against whomever sent the emails by forwarding them to GM. i can also see things that happened in the past with wendy being taken out of context.

i wasn't there, i can't say for sure what happened. i'm very hesitant to sign on to believing something that i can't prove by myself, or examine by myself.

Rhys - now I am feeling all wonky about saying that to you. I'm not attacking you, just trying to say there *is proof there, and it isn't just about who maligned you in private, or anybody else in private communication, or who said what where about one specific person. It's the big picture of the whole thing, you know?

honest. pinkie swear with snow on the mountains

I bought three powerball tickets today, so just wanted to let you know, SW and Margaret, that you needn't worry about divvying up anything, since I'm winning, and I'm not sharing *any of it.

This is the one and only long comment you're going to get from me.

Our business completed an audit required by our industry. We received our license to continue and have been recertified. Our financial audit passed clean and clear which included funds received for Krista and funds released to Krista. It balanced out. I did not address specifics because there were about 6 versions that Krista gave to people and people I thought I could trust turned out to be traitors. She received info when money came in and knew exactly who gave it. I was not responsible for her state of mind when that information was being passed.

I never needed to defend my reputation because I knew the records were all there. I discarded the paper copies but anyone with an intellect will know that there are electronic copies. Some donations were from people who did not want their names published. I told Krista they were anons. People have tried to tarnish my name. Why didn't I care to defend it? Because this is the internet and there are forums (this included) who decide to be judge and jury without solid information. I refuse to be a part of it. And I won't be a part of it.

FWOP is not run by me. They asked me one favor and that was to open anonymous mail. I agreed. Their tactic worked. They have a crack forensic investigator. I do not have the time nor the interest to pursue any of you. I knew my name was being thrown out along with personal information about my family, even on this Daisy site. I could have asked them to stop until I was made aware of their bigger objective.

FTWMommy is also not me. Obviously now since someone cleverly put it together, it was a scheme to implicate me. Very nicely done too. Anyone can now be implicated on Twitter. Say no more.

I am not saying anything about Wendy other than the fact that she possesses information about many of you. I think that speaks volumes. Clearly, her story with Olivia is the bait she uses. Even that is old. But there are innocent people out there who don't know her and who could be her next victim.

The giveaway with Jennifer was done purely in the spirit of Christmas. It's sad that many didn't think that was possible or perhaps chose to see it that way. I did not do it for the clicks. What it afforded me was a glimpse into the world of Jennifer which I do not envy in the single least bit. I could have sold the copies and made a lot more money with it. Clearly, many of you thought to see that gesture in a different light. Sad but it's your life.

That's it. I wish you all the best. I don't wish to debate you. I value what I learned from encountering people on the internet.

And I treasure the people and friends who have staunchly and quietly supported me.

Bri said...

To those who in some little way apologized last night, not to me specifically, but in general for speaking out about someone they didn't even know I understand being caught in the passion this forum can create. I appreciate that. No hard feelings. I have moved on.

Really Frugal said...

I stopped commenting here because I didn't want to raise the ire of anyone who wants to post personal info, mostly out of fear of embarassing my son in front of his very smart internet security students. I talked to him about it this weekend, and he doesn't care. He also said anything can be fake-proven on the internet. He explained a lot of stuff but he was speaking geek and I didn't have a translator. I don't care anymore. I want to talk to Jill about her MIL, and SW about her dreams. I want to get to know Taiya (did you get the sweater?) and Mulie and their babies. And I want to remember that I can't know what is real.

Mama was very wise and I miss her a lot. She used to say, "Life and horse racing. Better to get past than to get even."

Robin in Montana said...

RF - I like that. :-)

Erin said...

Hi RF! :)

Bri, I think we all want to move on. People have been hurt, and scared. You know who FWOP is. Maybe all these WOP sites can be taken down, and we can get back to the business of talking about what to make for dinner.

I know you said that you are not going to engage in conversation, but I have to ask if you think FWOP is going to continue their crusade against this blog?

. said...

Hi RF!
I miss the fun banter and the sharing of our lives, too. If everyone ignores the "others", it will go away hopefully.

Erin said...

RF- She did get the sweater. She posted the minute it came. She was hoping one of her friends had a boy. I think she should put a pink ribbon in baby's hair, and let *her wear it!

Erin said...

And Bri, (if you know) WHY *this blog? There are much more hurtful things on MWOP. Not that there hasn't been things said here, but it is not even close to the comments on mwop, or the stuff that is dug up and put out there.

Really Frugal said...

New post . . .

Robin in Montana said...

RF - Still thinking about what you said. I agree getting past stuff and moving on is important. It's also important to learn from whatever went down, to not ignore stuff that's been plainly shown to you and not continue to trust and feed people who clearly have nothing but a need to use ohers for their own gain. I think, anyway. Not aimed at you, just thinking out loud here.
