I don't speak up much, but...
 
Jesus Christ!!! Will we ever get off this fucking subject?  No wonder people are leaving this board.
 
I am close to unsubscribing from this list because of the hundreds of personal, spiteful, back and forth petty emails that are being sent.  And this list has been up for how long?  I'm surprised it has lasted a full year with all the crap I've had to endure coming into my inbox.

JR, Susan, and anyone else begging to join in the circus - grow up and shut the fuck up!  I don't care who wants to get the last word in.  JR, if you're going to stop posting and read archives, then get the hell out of here and do it, STOP POSTING.  If only your death rattle were real...somehow I have a feeling you'll post yet again.

 
And yes, I had to resort to this level of verbiage because of the children on this board obviously have not responded to any kind of logical, reasonable approach. 
Sick of it all,

  you'd get all freaky and serious-like threaten to leave the group!
   
  Pretty wise guy, that Moderator of ours. He wasn't going to allow Mo Po 
  to relive another "low point of Mo Po's existence" as he himself 
  tagged it a few years ago. Can anyone blame him? Back then I bet his 
  finger was "on the button" to end the MoPo forum once and for all. It was 
  MoPo's Bay of Pigs. 
   
  Had Scott not stepped in when he did I'm sure there would of been dozens 
  of public Pro-JR posts of "Gather pitchforks and torches, Mopers! 
  STORM! STORM THE OLSENSTEIN CASTLE!! KILL THE SHE-BEAST!" with 
  dozens of equally passionate "Susan For President! JR SHOULD BE 
  NEUTERED! SLOWLY!" retorts from the other side. Back and forth. Back 
  and Forth. Until what? We all turned to butter, perhaps?
   
  It would have been entertaining as hell, but got us, as a group, no 
  where.  
   
  So. Susan is back on MoPo. Let's deal with it. Welcome her with open 
  arms. Hurricane Susan, whose sustained winds and storm surge could flatten 
  Miami. Prepare for it. Read the warning flags, stock up, and be prepared 
  to evacuate. Those are the steps you take. You don't leave the country, 
  dude.
   
  Susan is right at home at Style B and NS4GE, especially when she's with 
  the other "wimmin'" over there. Things can be pretty entertaining (and nasty), 
  for sure. Over there Susan is like watching DEADWOOD with six-pack and a 
  few rowdy friends. But when she starts dropping F Bombs on MoPo it 
  doesn't seem right. It's like watching DEADWOOD with your Mother and Dad in 
  the room. There are some things you just dont say with parents around. For 
  instance, "Hey C**ksu**er, Pass the F***ing 
  chips!"  would qualify as something one would not say with 
  a parents in the room, but something that could accidently slip out while 
  watching DEADWOOD. 
   
  Susan can make Al Swearengen blush. If she wants to. She's our 
  Calamity Jane. That's a compliment, btw. A Point of Pride for her and 
  for us. And it appears she's trying hard to "be at home" and playing 
  nice-nice on MoPo, too. I like that. 
   
  I'm surprised you haven't recognized the BEST POSTER FIND thread for what 
  it is: a positive step forward. I'll say that again, this time in 
  bold with italics, and underlined: 
  a positive step forward. As ON TOPIC as 
  MoPo can get. It's why MoPo was invented, for these types of involving threads 
  between poster collectors. It's an attempt to move on, and QUICKLY, to better 
  things. And it's working. Who ever started it was/is genius.
   
  So, JR. What do you say? Co-exist with all of 
  us. You make MoPo a better place.
  Disregard those flippant lurkers who have never, and will never, 
  contribute to MoPo and this hobby like you have.

[MOPO] Best Poster Fiend? publicly asking JR to calm down

2006-09-20 Thread Ron Wisberg
I was really enjoying the Best Poster Find messages, noticed Susan posted with something very positive, and then saw JR in my in box.      For a second my heart thought, wow, maybe the two really can live in peace. WRONG. JR hijacked one of the most positive threads I've seen in months and attempted to take it back to his own personal agenda.     SO WHAT THAT SCOTT DIDN'T HANDLE THINGS WITH THE JR SEAL OF APPROVAL!     Sorry JR, Susan Olsen seems very willing to let it go and talk about posters, can't you? I would rather talk about posters than I would whatever BADblood exists between you two. Let's drop who pounced first, let's forget public or private insults, let's get on with it. Are we keeping score as to who posted more negatives in 24-hours? Sorry, I stopped trying to keep score in life some time age.     Frankly, I really enjoy talking or engaging in
 friendly debate with you, but it's time to let this go. Susan shouldn't be in some sort of "cooler" and you shouldn't be reading archives instead of e-mails. You've only hurt yourselves with these unneccesary "punishments."     I don't see a long lasting olive branch between the two of you. But I do see two people that know a lot about movies and posters and I want both to post and to make others feel welcome. Is that too much to wish for? Ron
