Well it kind of is if you're interested in finding out - if you're not then the thread probably wasn't intended for you anyway.

Beebo is too nice to name names and point fingers. Somehow most of us (including slow, clueless me) eventually figured out what she was talking about.

As usual, I missed the drama, but I'm not sorry to see him gone.

Frankly, you didn't miss much. Just another rude jerk. He wasn't even a good troll.

Let me help.

Search > Advanced Search > type in the name mentioned in post 3 > submit > look for 'General Hospital' as mentioned in post 5





Phew, I need a nap after all of that effort!

This hurt my feelings

If I were to create a thread wanting someone banned here, I would link to every and any posts that are worthy of the ban.

Just saying.

I wouldn't assume that everyone reading has read what I have read.

That's all.

Beebo didn't name the person. Someone else came in later and named the person.

He hasn't gone out of bounds in terms of violating rules here, as of yet. He hasn't abused any of us, unlike other posters who are allowed to call people "twats", and accepted.

We should not ban him just because we disagree with him.

That's my opinion and I'm sticking with it.

So, I missed any insult that was made to Cris.

Can someone link me to it, please?
Mistake 2: Realizing that you didn't have complete information and expecting others to do the legwork and hand it to you - though you already had the search term "General Hospital" - after other posters obviously did their own legwork to find the information.

Mistake 3: Not just saying "ah, my bad, thanks for the links" and letting it go, and learning to use search, and looking up a user's post history.

I DID thank Mad Mouse, thank you.

Not my bad. Incomplete information was presented.

It's NOT my job as a reader to look up users' posts that would support a thread creator's contentions.

It's the thread creator's job.

The only rules on this forum are Cris', which Beebo was adhering to as much as she could while also having a bit of a rant. It's no one's job to post in the manner in which you think they should.

If you wanted to know more, you could have found it easily.

Actually the point of the thread was to tell me I should not have to put up with people insulting me on this site.

Congrats on being the first one.

That's more offensive to me than anything else posted anywhere,.

You have NO right to call me a twat.

And she's right. You should NOT have to put up with that.

Incomplete information was provided, though everyone KNEW exactly who she was speaking about.

That's passive-aggressive.

I find the term twat annoying, but not nearly as offensive as cunt. I guess that's just me.

I ASKED for more info. Mad Mouse kindly provided it.

You would rather jump on me for not doing the thread creator's job?
