Dear Call Outs Operator

I read your "announcement" and I think it's bullshit.  I hope you read this.  I hope you are ashamed of yourself.  How f*ing self righteous you are!  You did this to teach people a lesson?  Give me a break.  You need to get over yourself.  You are NO BETTER than the people who sent in those nasty call-outs. 

Everyone who participated in that site should be ashamed of themselves.    Screw your "I'm sorry" call-outs.  It's too late for that crap.  You fell for it, you submitted it, you can't take back the hurt you caused.

No this isn't my GBCK but it sure makes me disappointed to be a part of this site right now.

Squirrly, if you have to delete this go for it but I had to say it.

  • Ditto.  The operator needs to google "megalomania" and then see a shrink.

  • Also? If you're gonna apologize, SIGN YOUR NAME. Let's have a GROWN UP CONVERSATION ABOUT IT.

    I know this may seem WAY OUT THERE, but you can not like me and we can still co-exist on a board together. And I won't hate you for it.

    I never thought Id say this, but at least JaysGirl was open about her hatred for me. I respect that about her.

  • An honest question - why does anyone look at this callout site?  I see so much reference to it here on the board, but I have no idea where to find it nor do I have a desire to find it.  So I'm just wondering - if everyone hates it so much, why go there and why post here about it?  It just seems to fuel the fire.

  • Nah, Dani, I'm not deleting this one.  I haven't deleted anything, actually, except the link to the other site.  I agree with you entirely. 

    Like I said before - deleting isn't what I want to do at all.  I just felt like we were out of options, when we had multiple people with concerns and requesting that  If it's going to end, I'd be perfectly happy with that.

  • Agreed. The entire site is at fault here, no more or less than the people sending in callouts. Self-righteous is right.

    And one more,

    Dear Apology-Posting-Morons,

    Are we supposed to be all "oh sweet, this nameless, faceless coward said sorry to us for something they may or may not have said in the first place"?

    Get a clue.

  • Heck, I don't believe anybody who would send in something that mean would turn around and apologize for it, so I'm guessing somebody's faking.

  • Today is the first time I've thought about GBCK'ing in a verrrrry long time.  But I'm sick of this shiit.  The callouts, the arguments about FFF, the general middle school behavior happening. 

    I'm honestly wondering if we're all completely insane to post here.  Yep, I've been sucked in and participated in all of it.  But it's all just really making me ill today.

  • You are f*cked in the head.  Seriously, f*cked in the head.  You allowed stuff as nasty as P2's callout, or references to looks, to be posted on your stupid little website in order to what, teach us all a lesson?  Unless the lesson was that you're completely and utterly full of a nearly pyschotic level of sh*t you have failed.  Epically.  And your whole "I want FFF to stop!"  Really?  Do you think your desires are THAT important to warrant opening up something far worse than FFF? Iso I really hope you aren't somebody that I like, because I would be really sad to lose completely and utter respect for somebody I considered a decent person.

  • the busted call-out--is that a picture of a wheel of brie?
  • I have to shake my head at this because this shouldn't be a "fight fire with fire" sort of thing.

    You can't stop FFF by posting nasty crap about TK members. That doesn't make sense, AT ALL.
    image
  • I hate to say it, but it's possible that the site WAS to "teach us a lesson." at least, the person who started it could actually believe that's why they started it. people's circular logic doesn't shock me anymore.

  • Yeah, how is Brie busted?

    And the site can't stay on if Tumblr removes it...

    [QUOTE]is the callout suggesting Brie is the callout operator?
    Posted by laladypoet[/QUOTE]

    I think so! And I don't think it's Brie. I actually haven't given it enough consideration to contemplate who it is.
    image
  • Surely no one believes Brie is the person behind that site that must not be named.

    I cannot believe the deluded narcissism behind that operator note.
  • I don't know brie from a hole in the ground, so I have no idea.
    I think we'd be surprised by who it is, no matter what.
  • My sn has bri in it but I doubt anyone noticed because I'm a noob.  Annnd I didn't start the callout site or use it.  I'm assuming there are other bri(e)s here but just thought I would say it anyways!
    image
  • Have I thought about GBCK'ing because of this?  For about a hot second.  But then I realized, that's what whomever started this wants.  For that reason alone, I'm staying, and I'll keep on staying the longer you hate me, because that kind of sh*t doesn't get anywhere with me.

    Say what you want bitches, but I'll never leave.
  • i can't decide if i've ceased caring or if i'm over-the-top fed up.
