Not Leaving MWO just yet. HA!

[Ne/Neva Eva]

It's been several days since I heard from my friend who is going to set up the forum for me. I don't doubt that he will help. But I also know he's very busy navigating life sober-ish and trying to get everything back in order. I know you guys know how that is!



In the meantime, I've got to write. And some of the recent comments and thoughts have really resonated with me and reminded me what this place was and could be and should be.



So now that I've got the troll on ignore, and am actually ignoring his posts, I'm content to post here if and until I create another space.



Here's the other thing, I got a ton of emails about wanting to participate in the new forum, and I haven't responded to a single one. My friends know that I am a terrible pen pal, and terrible about responding to emails, but this is inexcusable. I apologize. Truly. At the same time, it makes clear to me that I might not be ready to take on a big project.



So I'm just going to post here daily again. It really helps me. I hope that those of you that responded to me via email, particularly the ones that said that they don't feel safe posting here, will join in occasionally. It's okay to lurk! But it would be really nice to hear from you, every now and then, too.



I will definitely keep you posted about creating a new space. I still want to do it and hope to do it soon-ish. I just don't want any false expectations or for anyone to think I don't care. 'Cause goodness knows, I care.



Much, much love.

Oh, and do us all a favor and ignore the troll. Maybe it'll work this time, he'll get bored and go away? Probably not. But my fingers are crossed.

[treetops]

Glad you are hanging around Ne and others!

[paulywogg]

I'm glad too Ne, even though I don't post over here often and I'm not on bac,I still feel supportive of the people who post in this section and saddens me that some people may not feel safe in posting the truth of what they're going through, I just feel like quitting alcohol is a process,meds or not,and nobody should be belittled during the process,it can be devastating to have things you've posted thrown in your face,I agree,ignore and continue to fight this addiction and be proud of progress,no matter how small it may seem to others good for you Ne

It's easy to make a new forum with Proboards...I did it, but nobody posted, lol. I can send you a link if you like.

I encourage all of your peeps to simply "ignore" the one person on here who hassles you. It seems that most of you are able to do so, so that's great.

[fennel]

Ne, I tried to send you a link to proboards via p.m., but your inbox is full...can you clear it out? If any of you other folks on the meds forum want to try it out, it's ridiculously easy. Just enter "proboards" into google and you're so there. Just make certain that your forum is by invitation only.

Great post Pauly!

[Spiritfree]

NE -you are so funny. You knew that I would eventually take your bait and respond. Heck fire, I am only human too -you know. Strange how your only two posts bring me up as the subject of something you are now ignoring. Ok??

NE -you no more believe, think, or know that I am 'troll" than you believe that there are Basset Hounds on Mars. So please stop with all of that silliness and please stop trying to convince others of that falsehood. I am very definitely someone that post comments that you do not like or agree with, but I am no harmful 'troll' as you refer to me as -and you know this. After your most recent leave of absence, one of the very first posts that you made after returning was in condemning me and my posts. Ne, getting rid of me is not going to rid you of your underlying conditions -but you already know this. Please stop sending your troops out to 'get' me.

NE, you were no more going to start a new forum than the man on the moon. You elected to advertise this intention to further try and belittle me and make yourself seem more important. NE, this 'new forum' approach was not necessary -your followers will and do agree with you anyway -regardless of what you say or do. You, of all people, realize and recognize the fact that a forum that only has people agreeing with each other and condoning each others' alcoholic behavior would only end up leading to a dead forum -so to speak.

NE -Please, let us call a truce. The beginning of this truce will begin by you not responding to this post and will be furthered enhanced by you calling off your followers and asking them to do the same -without calling me a troll (please-lol). I hereby agree to continue not referring to you in any of my posts and agree not to respond to you unless you refer to me in someway.

Will you agree to this peace treaty? A great start will be by you not responding in any way to this post.

Thank you -in advance,
--sf--

Edit: NE -You know my name, phone number, my email address, etc.. I will always be thankful to you for your true integrity and decency for not giving this information out to others who truly would try and cause me and my family harm. In the end, you always have stood up for what was 'right' regardless of what you otherwise thought relative to the person. Also, thank you for telling another person to take my name off of their post -about a year ago; I do not forget the positive acts that you take on my behalf or on the behalf of others -regardless.

Fellow MWO members, if you really want to know more about 'higher' level character and what 'real' integrity really is -look no further -NE is THE person to follow and know -as much as I hate to admit.

I think this is the most dishonest post I have ever read.

This is a guy who doesn't listen to anyone else, doesn't care about what anyone else says and just goes on and on about nothing while doing damage to other people's heads with rambling, inane posts about nothing of any use.

[terryk]

I wasn't going to bump this thread just to say it, but since Otter already posted... I accidentally hit the "Thank" button again on another one of that menace's shitposts(#8) - I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea, I find his input here completely devoid of worth. -tk

Fennel, Treetops and Paulywogg,

Thanks so much for your comments and advice.

Fennel, my PM box is full because I used to be a member and allowed 500 PMs. That got full, and I cleaned it out down to about 250. Now that I'm not a member any more, I only get 100 PMs! That's absurd! But mostly because I get very attached to personal Private Messages and have a hard time deleting them. I'll clean it out again, eventually. I just haven't found the time.

I hate to say this, after all of your support, but I've heard from several people that we really do need a space that's free from the drama, and the troll. It's SO important to be able to talk openly and honestly, in a place where we trust each other. Given the fact that whats-his-face is making stuff up (that one must remain abstinent for baclofen to work, for instance) and littering this area of the forum with all kinds of inconsequential nonsense, much of it having nothing to do with meds, I think it's time to find some space. Especially if it's going to become a battle ground.

I know you guys understand.

So my friend did actually set up a forum for me. Now it's up to me to do something with it. (I'm not sure what. I helped Lo0p with his forum, but someone else did all the formatting and stuff.) Maybe this weekend?

As usual, will keep everyone posted. And of course, you don't have to be taking baclofen (or medications) to participate. You just can't be a hater. Or a lecturer. Or full of bologna. Or a pain in the ass. ha!

I totally "get" your needing your own forum. The reason I suggested proboards is that even a tech moron like myself could easily set the thing up. I started my own forum because of unbridled bullying on this one. I'm really sad to see that things are devolving once again. I wish you much success with your own forum and I hope you will come back once in a while to update us.

I have a feeling that your nemesis is going to be desperately lost once you're posting elsewhere...it seems that he lives to harass the baclofen folks.

[paulywogg]

Fen,im sure he'll find another target pretty quickly

Seriously Pauly, was this comment necessary or helpful? Please consider the damage that you do to your self when you post this type of misinformation.

Pauly, you will not receive the healing that you are so desperately seeking by posting negative thoughts about me. Please consider this fact when you post anything to anyone.

Oh Please. I'm tired of the fighting. sf, please stop.
