Thank you Leisa:) That is how we also felt!! 

But what's the problem?  You all do have what you say is a super fun secret place to play and say anything your heart desires!   

There are other people who were not accepted when they applied to join the R&R 3 Board. 

The private R&R group is no more dreadful and full of vile people than those who would call the group dreadful and full of vile people. I have always found it amusing that those who dislike what went on in R&R use some of the very language they claim to dislike.  Pots calling kettles black and all that. It is even more amusing that those who say they disliked R&R, seemed to spend quite a bit of time there.

 Yappers calling for decency wallowing in the very "dirt" they claim to be indecent?  Can you say hypocrisy?

Thank you - and the stupidity of blocking people and then signing out so you can read what they post?   Come on, we all know how to get round the block so why even bother?

Blocking is for noobs who don't know any better!   I'll bet there are more than one or two accounts on R&R3.0 who exist just because they know their original accounts don't "want" to get in!    Must stink to be able to read everything but be unable to post in case you get "caught out"

Then there are those who block thinking their stuff can not be read...heck all I had to do to read the Pom's dribble was go to a different browser and read this thread not signed in.

She makes it so easy for me to ignore her. :)

Hmm, this has turned into an interesting debate- I'm grateful it has to be civil, being a public forum.

R&R was also a public forum available for anyone to choose to read or post, not an exclusive club. It belonged to OH, and anyone had a right to be there.

But it was treated and used as an exclusive club by the select few, with inside names and handshakes and code words and jokes, etc, and often the language was vile. Just like any gang behaves.

Plus people were regularly attacked or gossiped about. Many people weren't welcome, especially if they had different opinions.

The "inside" people weren't and aren't vile. But the behavior was more often than not.

But again, I don't understand the upset that R&R was closed. People are now allowed by OH to have a truly exclusive club invitation only, and they can say what they want however they want to, and no one will interfere! What could be better for the people who want their own club?

Some people play win/lose, often in a personal way, but now they can't do it on a public forum.

Win/win for everyone.

scoobyluvr1, thanks for being so very gracious in proving my point!   

I'm so relieved that the crap can only be on the level of emoticons now! Some people will always be sneaky and snarky with how they slip the meaness in and will continue do it whatever way they can, but at least the level and way it's delivered has been and will continue to be limited.

Is that Pom puke?
