Brian,
You sir, are really starting to irritate me! Unless you are, in fact, the duck Jess claimed you walked, quacked, and ruffled your feathers like; then you, my dear, are in my opinion, WWWWAAAAYYYY to new of a poster, to keep “bossing” the forum members around! I’m not implying that I have any type of seniority around here; but then again, I don’t go poking my nose into conversations NOT intended for nor directed at me!
Friday you started complaining about a music discussion, that had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, and today it’s your holier than thou statement “we are here to talk about other things, not email addresses!” Excuse me, but just exactly who gave you the f**king right to amend the United States Constitution, and dictate precisely what we can and can not discuss?
I don’t see any of these postings, you keep bitching about, say “TO” pimpleshit, shitforbrains, or whatever other ludicrous handle you are utilizing today!
Furthermore, I don’t see why you feel the need to control and dictate other posters conversations! If you don’t like what’s being discussed, then don’t read it. . .or better yet LEAVE!
Of course, that’s just my humble opinion, and since I DO respect the rank of senior posters, I accept the fact, that I could be wrong! :-p

Thx for listening,

If you must post an email addy, get one at yahoo or something, dont use your regular ISP addy.
Do you really want a future employer or spouse being able to find out about your addiction just by entering your email addy into a search engine? Im talking _years_ later too.
Also you might want to "sanitize" a yahoo or other web based mail account. Someone I wrote to had their real name in the "from" field.

I don’t see what the problem is with posting a “generic” email address is either. If you choose to list your personal ISP server address; then that’s a completely different story. There is virtually NO WAY hotmail, yahoo, excite, ect. can be traced back to you; and I don’t see any other way board members can choose to communicate off board, without exchanging email addresses.
my ISP and the Law.Or the DEA and My ISP.Oh forget it!

Lets all get along.. we are here to talk about other things, not email addresses.
Brian
Further, if you have to post your email, why not set up a yahoo or hotmail account under another name...with none of your real information. That way, if someone turns into a stalker, you can just ignore it and not use the account.
Brian
PS: Ty Suzie for being there for me, listening and everything :)
How r you? I lost your e-mail. Can u re send it to me?
Thx,
Suzie
Brian,
I TOTALLY APOLOGIZE! I meant to write “Player” and not “Pimp”. . .it’s completely my fault and a genuine mistake! Player was getting involved in a conversation, regarding music, between Jess, BMAC, and I, last Friday. He posted the following, which really pissed me off:
“how did we go from seeing how legitimate this reporter is to a really low-brow discussion about dead musicians?? kinda adds credence to her opinion that all oxy users are airheads!!!! back to the subject-oxy IS prescribed for legitimate use-however-if the patient is an ex-abuser of anything-the potential exists for abuse. when the use goes on for any extended length of time the doctor freaks and tries to limit the scripts - causing major freaking out-cause finally the pain is under control but the cure is worse than the cause-get back to the subject!!! you all sound like a bunch of stoned teenagers - ARE YOU?? ia used it for legitimate reasons, then got hooked on the high - but the physicians will not take responsibility for getting us there....NOW WHAT??? illegal= that's what...next... hey, reporter you can contact ME - i'm 53, employed, educated and HOOKED-THERE'S A DIFFERENT ANGLE FOR YOU, HUH??”
It really bothered me that he was attacking us; and went so far as to call our conversation “low-brow” and said we were “airheads” for discussing music! Like you said, this is a “Public Forum” and I felt like Jess, BMAC, and I had the right to discuss, music, musicians, lyrics, or the f**king weather, if we wanted to.
One again. . .MY BAD. . .I should of double-checked the name, before I posted. I hope you will accept my sincerest apologies; I too have made many a friend here, and I really am not the total ***** my post, to you, made me out to be. It was a mistake; please forgive me.
Sincerely,
Jennyfer
PS To “Player” the aforementioned post was directed to YOU! I accidentally confused your handle with pimps; although I can’t remove the post, I can—and did—apologize to Brian, and I am publicly letting the forum members know, I screwed up, and the post was intended only 4 U!!!
Chezz too! Gotcha! If the real hippy is out there...I don't know how you can prove who you are to us but those druggee posts speak for them selves!
Suzie
Hope everyone is doing good today, Im kinda tired and sluggish and just blah..
Brian
