Shouldn't this apply to a PERSON encompassing all their unsernames?
[QUOTE=babs10][QUOTE=Spelunker] [QUOTE=Hillhoney]Pretty impressive show of support I'd say![/QUOTE]
I echo that. Thanks for keeping a roll-call for us, Hillhoney.
As has been said said, more than once [/QUOTE]
I give up and will read no more or post in certain posts. I'm sorry, I'm new at being on a message board. Been here reading for the last three months. I went and deleted picture. I don't need to be on the board, I get upset too easy, I'll blame it on the predisone....LOL have a great day [/QUOTE]
Hmmmmmmmm, prickcushion is this you, maybe joonie or lorster? Then again there's lyndee and jan lucindo and justsaynomore and pip and how about teed?
I wonder.............................
I think all of the usual chronic offenders that signed this are full of sh*t and just waiting for time to pass so they can resume their spewing of vomit.
You have a good day .
Lets keep up this general amnesty. So many great topics on the board lately
[QUOTE=Bodak]You have a good day .
[/QUOTE]
Hear! Hear! A good day is just what we all need and deserve. Thanks for the reminder Bodak.
I admire everyone who has had the courage to commit to this. But it is much easier to do when you have joined with so many others for a greater good. There really is strength in numbers.
I hope some of the others will reconsider and let go of past hurt and anger and we can all move on together.
I have been patiently waiting for a certain someone to sign up but I guess it will never happen so one and all, consider this my pledge.
Have a good day everyone.

I'm glad you did PatI think this thread highlights the majority of the AI members that want to live in peace here. The ones that cause trouble may be the loudest.....but they are not the majority of the members here.
For anyone who thinks this board is nothing but trouble; take a closer look at the ones who take this seriously. There are so many more here that want us to all get along and live together in peace.
Let by gones be by gones. Yes; some who have pledged to leave the past in the past have been offenders in the past.....but they are willing to apoligize and forgive past offenses. I think we all deserve second, third....even tenth chances. Forgive and forget. Stop holding onto all the anger. LET IT GO!! Just; let it go.
hey everybody:
[QUOTE=waddie]This really is worth keeping on the first page... I am hummmmmmming that more will take it seriously and give this a shot.
[/QUOTE]
I too think this should be on the first page so I am giving it a bump.and lets all keep in mind that we are better off ignoring posts we feel are trying to get a reaction than we are responding to them and calling attention to those theads. Responding keeps the thread on the front page
Thanks for the reminder, Buckeye. I also think there is something to be said for a slight change of perspective: often we have such a cast-in-stone perception of someone, some topic, some idea that we react instead of act. We react to the person, the topic, the idea rather than acting to shift our perspective and gain new insight, understanding, or even tolerance.
And...

cheers to buckeye and Shug!!
I read a great quote on that same topic today -- it said
I don't have to attend every arguement I am invited to.
If you have forgiven and forgot......Why are you back in here trying to stir the pot....Lets keep peace on this board, Please, let this go.
[QUOTE=wilma]If you have forgiven and forgot......Why are you back in here trying to stir the pot....Lets keep peace on this board, Please, let this go. [/QUOTE]
I beg your pardon? I am not quite sure why you consider my statements, or anyone else’s, in this topic to be stirring the pot, in a negative manner. From a wholly personal and completely subjective point of view, I do not see anything deliberately provocative that needs to be let go. Rather, metaphorically, stirring this pot in this instance, merely creates awareness and in doing so can, and has, effected changes.
As the Arthritis Insight amnesty was intended to be liberating, should not members who for one or another reasons might have missed it early in the month be given the opportunity to read the proposal? For the most part the discussion that has taken place herein has been tempered and civil. I am not attempting to be quarrelsome, offensive, or disrupt the “peace of the board”.
However, I thank you for the criticism and will take it to heart.
Cheers, Shug
Shug, you sure have a way with words. All I'm saying is, if you have forgiven and forgotten then it is time for you to give it up and lets get back to RA. You can't pick at people in your fanncy way and not expect people to react. I know you are very sick and have a lot of time on your hands, I feel for you and wish you the best. Please let this go....people don't need to be reminded. There is nothing going on.......There seems to be a lot of chum in the water. Hopefully everyone will be smart and "just keep swimming".
[QUOTE=Hillhoney]There seems to be a lot of chum in the water. Hopefully everyone will be smart and "just keep swimming". Looks like this needs a bump.Kickin it to the top!Whatever happened to this????this.. doesn't work when there's someone here who comes in to insult other members... that's what happens to this...
she's never here...but when she is.. there is animosity due to her pot stirring ways ... when she's not.. everyone gets along, Teed.......
BUMP AGAINI don't disappear, and I'm not the trouble. The ones that signed this and now we have peace, are trying to get things going again, by keep bumping this. If there is peace why bring up the pass, let it go. You all sure haven't forgiven or forgotten, Sorry but that's the way I feel and if you want to keep the peace remenber what you signed.
Bye, your not worth my time.
BUMP. Peace, Lindy

Babs...I did NOT see anything that insulted anyone, only in your eyes. I also was wondering when the pot stirring comment would come up. I would like to say...."IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO"
Just keep swimming. . .

Even if it is against an increasing strong current whose only purpose is to push us back.
I agree Spelunker, There is a need to have this back at the top. Come on people, it was so nice to have peace, lets work toward it again. Stay out of it, if no one answers, It will go away again.
