Hi all. First let me say - I am not in any way trying to insult or attack anyone. And I most graciously apologize for writing this as I am now wasting the space, that I am about to complain about, but geesh - it is like no one is listening!!! What am I talking about? Again - in this Ferret Forum - it appears that we still have people that are having a hard time understanding that writing about FERRETS is what it is about. NOT personal vendetta's against people who may have "attacked" us, or "said something mean about me", or whatever. Haven't we asked nicely - to please stop putting stuff like this here? Why is it so hard to understand that maybe there are some of us who don't WANT to get involved in your drama? We don't want to hear about your "personal" arguments, issues, or whatever it is - here. If you'd like to create a forum for that - the please do so, and then invite us all. We can all have a ball there - but I come here for FERRET INFORMATION. I don't come here to listen to petty arguing, and "underhanded jabs", that are disguised as "advice". If "someone" is warning you about "someone else" who is "attacking you" - it is only made worse by YOU throwing out the little insults that are disguised as "I don't cares", or little sideways jabs - that, you seem to think is ok - to put here. In the ferret forum. I know I can't speak for anyone else. But I am relatively certain that I'm not the only one who feels like this. There seems to be some apparent mis-conception that we want to hear all about the "personal" issues members have with other ones. In case I was unclear, we DON'T! I thought we had all agreed - that this is not the place for this - yet for whatever reason - there is always someone, or something - that just keeps it going. Please, stop. If you feel the need to 'strike back' - then go to the people who "warned you", since they apparently got you upset. Go to the moron who said whatever it was that upset you. Just please GO. Come back when you have something ferrety to say. My most sincere apologies if this has offended, upset, or hurt someone's feelings - as that is not my intention. I just want to keep it Ferrety here, and I thought everyone else did to. Again - apologies all. [KM] [Posted in FML issue 5195]
