    was GTD banned? I haven't seen her on here, and it looks like her profile has no PM option. I must have missed something.

    Don't worry, she'll be back here soon enough under a different username..

    why would GTD be banned? For hating her life and asking for advice, then ignoring or fighting said advice for days on end?

    strange, but not ban worthy.

    She derails every thread with irrelevant self-serving comments and often attacks people in an attempt to drag them down to her self loathing level..Hope she's doing well wherever she is :)..

    the Pit should have a 'Time Out Forum'....like if you misbehave or get out of line you get put into timeout and can only post in that forum and chat with others who are being punished.

    And us that don't misbehave can check in and see whats going on in the Time Out Forum but can't post there

    see, i dont see that at all. i have had a few threads of my own saying how fucked up shit was in my life, but never did i take the punishment that GTD did. her and i had many disscussions on this board. we dont see eye to eye on many things. i really do think she was just taken the wrong way by most people. even me at times.
    she would think things through cause it was her life she was talking about, important to her, and we would just post our quick "Dr. Phil thoughts" and think that it would fix things. anyway, i dont think she should have been banned.

    there is another person on this board ( who i like a lot, so wont mention his name ) who is going through a rough spot right now, and his threads are somewhat a downer too. but he dont get bashed like GTD did.

    i dont always agree with her, but i dont think anything she did was ban worthy. IMO.
    Peace, Love.

    same here :p lol

    like cutback said, there's definitely been a lot more slash and burn of members lately. i think it was a bit extreme to ban some folks, like speedy. i do miss his presence here.

    if i was running the board i'd probably be even worse banning folks and rock the dictator mode, so there ya go :D

    and thing is, most people end up just coming back under a new name, so they're not really "gone" per se.

    what i find interesting is some do have a mindset of thinking they are indispensable, and truth is, nobody is really. there are folks who were here when i first came on that aren't around anymore, and i wish they were personally, but it's not like the rest of the board is coming to a screeching halt. such is life :)

    do you know how many incarnations she's had on here though? and it's been the same M.O., every....single...time. people can only handle having their well-intentioned advice and concern ignored so many times.

    and i agree, but who should be banned first. the person trying to figure out shit in their lives ( GTD ) , or the person over on the porch that gives everthing the 10c or PJ does shit? or , the person that is just an overall ass towards everyone.
    GTD did nothing to anyone i dont think. if you didnt like what she had to say, you didnt have to be part of her threads.
    anyway, all im saying is, that if she was banned, i can think right off the top of my head about 15 others that should have gone b4 her, and im probably one of them. : )

    Right, but whenever I or anyone starts a thread regarding happy relationships she feels the need to shit all over it..for example in this most recent one she started a nasty fight with someone http://forums.pearljam.com/showthread.php?t=284493. Most of her comments have since been deleted, so it may not help to clarify..But anyway, most who have been around for years know her bs by now. As for 'ban worthy,' I guess that's really up to the mods to decide and it's what is being debated in this thread..

    nothing wrong with trying to figure things out and asking for help. there IS something wrong in derailing other people's threads, and insulting other posters. that's being just as much of an ass as someone on the porch being stupid.

    and sure, one can avoid people's threads. but did you like seeing someone talk smack about PJ over at the porch? that can get just as tedious as someone derailing a whole bunch of threads.

    the common thread with some folk seems to be self-absorption, i dunno.

    personally i don't give a fuck about who gets banned with the exception of those i consider friends.

    like justam said earlier, think before you post. i figure i'll continue to share what i think, and if it ever gots to the point where my opinion offends the mods and i get banned....oh well lol
