[QUOTE]In Response to Re: **DJ** : Uh oh, here we go! Finally! You put your big girl panties on and are going to get a bit fiesty with me. WTG!  Listen, I've been on E forever. I DO NOT envy the Bird and Mica when it comes to their Mod job. I've got my board and I'm set there, thanks. I refuse to believe I've ever come across as potentially stepping on a mod's toes on E. Bird, please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm almost seeing some of your posting as Insubordination - like you're trying to stage a revolt against DJ. Coming in and welcoming people and "speaking for the board" and what not and then attacking DJ and demanding an answer is awkward and, like I said, stepping on toes.  I think you have an inflated sense of self. I've stuck up for you before. But I really found your call out of DJ disrespectful - she came in here to HELP and <strong>many people on this board have given her shiit i</strong>nstead of being big girls and accepting the situation.

So I lurk more than post on this board, and with the exception of what seems like the mod thing that no one (on either side of it) seems to be able to let go, it's not dramatic at all. For anyone who lurks for drama, I just don't see it being worth it.  In fact, this board has been pretty slow for a while there aren't a ton of new and dramatic posts every day. Or even every week. I mean, I lurk on several boards, mainly because most of the time what I would have said has already been said, but to say you lurk on this board for drama just seems odd, or you're waiting for the war of the mods to begin again. I agree with whoever said that if we'd all just let this go the board might not be as interesting, but it would probably be a better board for it.

As for the Goodwill thing. I don't like to shop there for clothes either.  Some people don't shop there because of their politics, I know that I don't give money to or shop at the Salvation Army anymore because I've become aware of their policies. Part of someone's problem with shopping there may be finding things in my size that are attractive and fit, a problem I have and Amethyst may have as well. And it's okay to want attractive clothing that fits. It does not, in fact, make one a bad person. Nor does wanting new clothing. I do shop at certain thrift stores, but I always wash or dry-clean anything I buy from there, so I want to make sure that any clothing I buy from there is worth it.

Rosie, you may think I'm a snob, but I kind of think you're one, too. You seem to judge people for not doing with their expendable income what you think they should do. Or not buying from places you buy. And that's cool if you want to judge, but I don't think it makes anyone a bad person or a snob to know what they like and if they have the means to do it, then go for it. Do you also judge all of the girls on here who have wedding dresses that aren't thrifted or who didn't make their own wedding cake or go on exotic honeymoons? It seems very "I'm better than you because I don't spend money on fripperies," which seems pretty silly on what is, essentially, a website about what can be a very expensive party.

I am a snob. Its cool. I don't really judge people for how they spend their expendable income, rather I judge those that JUDGE others for spending their expendable income. Make sense? I don't care whether you shop at goodwill or at jcrew. I really don't. I just wanted to fvck with Amethyst. Does that totally rock your world?

I merely said I'm not a fan of Goodwill clothing. I don't shop there. It's a combination of fit and the fact that it's used. I'm able to afford new clothes, so I buy new clothes.

I was just thinking this. I don't understand why you would repeatedly bitch and moan about a board's mod. If you really don't like her, find a new home.

so here is the thing... you ladies may "lurk" but you never have anything to say unless YOU feel like there is drama.  How about either contributing (in a positive fashion) or staying out of it.  I am sure you all have something better to do than to pick on people you don't even know.  Now, I am sure you will find a million reasons to attack me (fine - whatever) but really... what good are you trying to accomplish?

And about the Goodwill shiit; I worked at Nordstrom and lets just say that their kick ass return policy is good for the returner and bad for some shoppers.

Posted by AmethystMSU[/QUOTE]

<div>I have to say I have been silently reading this post and a few others. and i am sorry.</div><div>someone posted that no one here "knew" each other and that was the problem.</div><div>A lot of these girls on this board and girls that came from other boards a month or so ago when PS was established. who were regular posters elsewhere but finally felt like they had a place to go with issues on things that other posters could relate to.</div><div>We were in the PROCESS of getting to know one another- and sh!t kind of hit the fan.</div><div>
</div><div>I hate that there is such drama. I was so excited to find a place where I could discuss issues that size 4 brides didn't have that I had: Finding a dress, hiding my stretch marks, buying lingerie in my size, dealing with critical relatives or people asking "how much weight do you intend to lose before the wedding"</div><div>
</div><div>i was really struggling with being plus size. As my entire life I was a size 8 up until two years ago, when a myriad of things happened and I gained a lot of weight. I have to say the girls on this board offered unending support and actually reading their posts GAVE ME the courage to actually go dress shopping and feel like a "bride"</div><div>
</div><div>I hate to say it and be cliche- but it seems like at this time of year,more so than ever, maybe we should just put the BS aside. and lets the PS girls have their board- and welcome who they want to put welcome posts to. It doesn't mean they are an "ambassador", let us put up posts that say "happy Thursday" because we want to- without having to wait for our moderator, let us "get to know" one another- since someone pointed out the reason we are failing and having trolls is because we haven't done that.</div><div>
</div><div>And I have to say I won't harp on this. But I disagree. If this board was "girls with moles on their faces' we would have trolls. The simple name of it being plus size- leads to people THINKING there is something wrong with us do to our physical appearance- which has been proven in posts that have occured on this board.</div><div>
</div><div>I really wish we could stop all the mod- non- mod nonesense. First of all, I'd like to stand up for Amethyst. On DAY ONE of the plus size board we were talking about mods. And don't quote me on this, but she totally said something like "that;s a job I'd never want"</div><div>
</div><div>Don't confuse people being friendly and nice with being an "ambassador"</div><div>
</div><div>I mean really girls. Can we get back to reality? This is an ONLINE- message forum. This isn't our jobs, or our families or anything beyond that. It is AWESOME to make friends and have GTG's and form friendships from a forum-= but at the end of the day- those friendships are treasured entities that are separate from the online world- they are PERSONAL relationships. </div><div>Let's just all get back to posting about our annoying FMIL, our garter belts, and our chivari chairs-- shall we?</div><div>

That's supersgg. 

New photo... same location, same wedding date, made up names on her bio (super and groupy... really?).  Oh and she conveniently jumps in to defend the regs, and seemingly "doesn't know the lingo" and yet figured out TTC pretty quickly? 

I mean, it was a good try, but that didn't take McGuyver to figure it out.

Doesn't know how to read, and yet posts on an internet forum.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: **DJ** : It's not...but is it not disrespectful to constantly undermind their authority? And YES, <strong>DJ is a mod, she DOES have authority on this board</strong> - TK gave it to her. If you dont like her having authority, then go to another board.  Insubordination:  in opposition to and usually in defiance of established authority.  Insubordinate  implies failure or refusal to recognize or submit to the authority of a superior   And it's NEWB, get it right.

This is correct, she does have authority here.  She has authority to ban people, to close posts, and what else?  She's not the boss by any means, she's a moderator.  But, I don't think anybody has had a problem with DJ as the mod for quite some time now.  The post from Amethyst yesterday was just a question, I think it may have just gotten taken the wrong way by some.  We're a bunch of women with conflicting personalities, it's not going to always be sunshine and rainbows and unicorn puppies.

Most of you that are regs on other boards admit to lurking on here now and then, which would mean you don't see the day to day activities on this board.  Lately, it's pretty chill and calm.  Sure, Amethyst should have PMed DJ from the beginning instead of airing it on the boards, but she's admitted she may have made mistakes, she's human and it happens.  But attacking her and what she says makes everyone else just as bad as they claim she is.

I love this board, but I'm too old for the drama.  I think we all are, because I'm pretty sure none of us are in high school anymore.  Let's just leave the personal attacks out of the conversations, they're just tacky and show no class.
