Tex - be yourself. Not everyone is going to agree with you and that's ok. I promise.

This is where I was going when I flamed her last week. She's very overeager and prolific. But I was probably the same way when I started posting. Probably am still the same way, but you know you love me now.

I think it will just take her a few weeks to get adjusted and for people to not think she's some kind of upstart whippersnapper.

It's not so much me not being a Mod anymore, it's more me just being real and being disappointed that when TK was handed some good evidence, they've not done anything with it.

The anonymous email ID they used sent a couple of emails to knotties directly and the email header contained the person's IP address.  It was traced to western Kansas, specifically Hays, KS.

One of the blog entries contained this:  I will never reveal who I am, but I’m the person that posts next to you. I’m your friend. I’m on your local board. I post on E and I post on SB. I post on other off-boards as well. I will never jeopardize my TK career for this bullshit. I just hope at least one of you learns something from this, anyone.

We thought the "TK career" comment sounded like a mod.  Low and behold, the mod for Kansas, future-mrs, has visited a venue about 90 minutes from the location that IP address traced to.  She posts on SB.  She used to post on E.  Also, Squirrly created a fake e-mail account and called her out basically saying "I know it's you future-mrs" and the site was taken down within 10 minutes of her e-mail.

So circumstantial yes, but hey it fits.  Now you know.

eye to eye dani. I thought the same thing. and I noticed she was a mod.

See here is what I don't get...
Is there a certain amount of posts your allowed a week before you can just post as many times as you want an not come off as "overeager and annoying". That's what I guess confuses me. At what point are you allowed to give your opinions and post freely before coming off as the annoying new person?

What's interesting is that I know if you're in school, you're ineligible for most unemployment benefits, because there are OTHER PROGRAMS you can use to help with school. As in, you get cash. Federal loans, federal and state grants, scholarships (and there are a plethora of scholarships for single parents). So it's really odd that she would qualify for certain welfare benefits WHILE living at home and WHILE working part time and WHILE going to school.

So I get your point. Really, I do, and it's great she made it through school and has a good career. It just seems a little dishonest. It likely wasn't, and I'm sure she was doing everything by the book, but multiple people have pointed out that they had no problem at all living off what they made working part time while living at home and going to school. Or that she could have dropped to school part time (if you're in school at least half time you still qualify for aid).

Vally, everyone thinks you're funny. 

Eh, it's not like I harbor a deep, burning hatred . . . and honestly I haven't been around much, so a lot of my opinion is based on stuff that happened a while back.  But nothing I've really seen contradicts my first impressions.  I do agree with Mery, though:  it'll pass.  Tex does seem to have a good sense of humor and doesn't seem pissy or obnoxious or rude . . . those are all good things.
