Personally, I think *public trust* is overrated. Every time I hear someone I do not know well say "Trust Me" I want to run for the hills. It smells of scheister. At least on eBay you have feedback to fall back on as well as eBay's insurance service, as sad as it is, to get some of your money back if the other party should bilk you. Even on eBay creeps exist but at least we can do something to protect ourselves. With this guy in the Philippines you have no protection at all. Don't trust him. That's how I feel.

Well, I've read & reread and I guess I just see what I see. It really did look to me like you were calling Mallets words irrelevant. Malletdoves post referred to how MD sees Tori. It's TRUE for Malletdove, therefore not irrelevant. While I don't agree with MD, I defend MD's & everyone's right to post. Otherwise we'd be Orwellian. Secondly, I should have separated my thoughts & I didn't. My apologies AJ. I posted to your post AJ & certainly part of my vent was that but the part about the name calling wasn't. I meant the name calling because of some heated past PT posts folks didn't agree with. (No one has called me names, at least not to my face LOL or in email, but I've heard of it happening to others.) Someone posts something, someone else doesn't agree so they either post to PT or personally in email using nasty name calls. I'm not going to get specific here, I don't think I need to. I just think it sucks, is immature & unnecessary. I think we (ALL of us) can debate without the name calling. Same with staying on topic, that wasn't meant for you, specifically, either AJ. Anyone else notice on message board that frequently when someone doesn't agree with you one of the parties brings out the word TROLL? Its like people online can't handle disagreements without tearing the other person down in some way. Again, this isn't directed specifically at you AJ. I'm just venting again. Some folks who read this will be nodding as they read this because we chat & I KNOW they are fearful to post to PT because they don't want to be attacked for posting their feelings. All in all I think my fellow EWF rocks & I personally am interested in what everyone here has to say. I read all of your posts. I find both Tori & my fellow EWF very interesting. I'm a people watcher, human behavior is fascinating :-) :::sigh::: What a day Toodles ~ MysT *** In a message dated 6/5/01 10:41:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time, owner-precious-things-digest@smoe.org writes: << ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2001 03:47:14 EDT From: JNe9027355@aol.com Subject: Re:MysT's vent ~ In a message dated 6/3/2001 10:49:03 PM Pacific Daylight Time, owner-precious-things-digest@smoe.org writes: > Subject: MysT's vent ~ > > I need to say something - it was declared in the last PT that > another persons post was irrelevant.

I think you really misinterpreted my post.. i was declaring the issues he was pointing out irrelevant because they simply were not true--it was like saying "i hate tori's blue hair". That's what i meant by irrelevance. How could you not see that? i clarified it as much as possible. I was staying on topic, and i wasn't tearing anyone done--that being quite obvious. I was just pointing out the lack of VERACITY in the person's statements. Is that justified as wrong? And who called anyone name's here?? I haven't seen one direct insult in this particular discussion at all. AJ >> ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V6 #96 ************************************
