Clothing Exchange: TOMORROW

HMMMMMM....

hmmmmm!

Sherri may not be the "keeper of the board" as you put it.  However, I am behind her 100%. 

Why would you even consider "taking up camping"?  You've made it plain that you don't like Sherri, myself, and many others on here - so why come to stir up stuff?  that statement borders on stalking.

I can't make it to the exchange tomorrow unfortunately.  However, I surely hope there is no trouble that causes future exchanges to be cancelled.  If I were there, I also would have no qualms about calling 911 if there was any trouble.

Now, flame me all you want.  I have my flame retardant (much smaller) panties on.  I've not had a good week, so I am loaded for bear anyway.  Knock yourself out.

I don't recall saying I Never "liked Sherri, you, or many others on here". If you read my reply I ain't plannin on makin no trouble. DId you get it that time? Michelle 

Edited to reword -

This is exactly what I mean.  "Did you get it that time?" 

Most of the baiting has been by you.  As I told you a couple of days ago, as long as you are courteous and receptive to courtesy, there's no problem.

I so wish I could be there for this fun time of fellowship and getting to know each other. Maybe as I do move down sizes I will be ready for the next one. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

I don't know any of the parties involved, bit it is all of this negativity that has caused me to not be super active here.

I wasn't aware that anyone had the ability to decide who is welcome here and who isn't.  I thought that is what the private boards were for. 

I will send positive vibes to all involved, and hope you enjoy the chothing exchange.  I don't think I will be going to anything like that for fear of making a wrong move and upsetting someone...

Stacy, there is some history behind this that took place before you were a member. 

The person that we have a problem with has been extremely negative and antagonized many members unfortunately. 

Sorry if it made you feel unwelcome.  That was not my intent.  I thought it was clear who the problem was with.

 

Stacy,

This particular person has stalked people, threatened people, and harassed people. She knows good and well that she isn't welcomed at ANY of the functions here or she would not have sent me PM's asking me if I thought it would be appropriate for her to show up. Yes. I still have those PM's. And no, it was not appropriate then and it is not appropriate now. ANYONE who makes ANY kind of threats against anyone on this board is not appreciated at any of the functions.

Now...if we choose to make ALL of these functions private..well Stacy...that would mean that many, many nice people who have no ill intents would not be able to come. I prefer to not have to do that...but if I do have to, I will be very selective on who I chose to allow in that private arena seeing how many of the functions have either been my idea or me personally asking someone to arrange it (Holiday World, camp-outs, Christmas ornament exchanges at Brenda and Floyd's, past swimming) or held at my home (hot tub parties). I am not going to put my home or ask others to put their home, church, campgrounds, etc on the line for a trouble maker. So yes, someone has to have the right to say 'YOU, don't come'.  My original message did not say that. It said 'if you come, don't start crap'.  Just think Stacy..what if that person she threatened were YOU. Wouldn't you then be thrilled to see that someone was looking out for your best interest? And by the way...until now, I have stayed completely out of this mess with Michelle and it is for my friends that I have opened my mouth.

Added: The first clothing exchange was hosted by Debbie Noel. The first Christmas ornament exchange was hosted by Linda Kay. Both of these ideas were so good that they got to be huge events. I think it is great that all the past host/hostess have taken this on. I appreciate very much that Robin has been willing to host the clothing exchanges at her church. I also appreciate that Floyd & Brenda have been willing to host the Christmas Ornament Exchange at their home. That particular event has gone from I believe 6 to...30'ish or so. I, end one of my huge posts had suggested several activities...and suggested a host/hostess on how it could be accomplished. The ornment exchange had outgrown many of our homes. I'm so glad that Brenda & Floyd had bought a nice big house! LOL! I did not mean to take away from Deb or Linda Kay at all. It was terrific ideas..both of them...obviously, or they would not have flourished to what they are today. I KNOW that neither of them would want to host something though that they would be wondering if they were going to have to call the police or not. Neither would you.

Sherri-

I felt like your first post was written to cause trouble.  I have been on message boards for years, and I felt as if you were baiting Michelle. If she is as unstable as everyone says, then maybe baiting isn't a good idea....

 Like I said I don't know you or Michelle or anyone else on this board for that matter, but I think if you are going to post an invitation on this PUBLIC board then you are inviting everyone.  If you only want to invite a select few, then those invites should be done via private message or on a private board.

The clique mentality of this board has disappointed me, and I am sure other newbies who came here looking for support and mentorship...
