It isn't really a dance between him and me, Marianne. It's that he writes a poison post about Rhonda, and I call him out on it and suggest that he stops doing it. It's just that I'm the one who does it the most because it bothers me that he continues to get away with targetting an individual. I can't just turn a blind eye to it - and I wouldn't want to.

In another thread that he poisoned, someone posted a list of people who had left the forum because of him, and the night before that, someone else (a popular ex-forum user) told me that she stopped posting because of him. I don't get on his back for any of it, but his current crusade against Rhonda is something that it's not in me to ignore - and it wouldn't matter who the target is. I've only ever met Rhonda once and that was after I'd become involved in this lot, so it's not the target that caused me to get into it - it's what he's doing to the target that causes it.

Phil. For every word I write, I have read maybe a hundred. I know what's going on here - roughly. And I can form my own opinion on that.

Pep. he, of course, can be the ONLY example because he is the only one consistently trolling, harassing, stalking and inciting anger and reactions out of people.
I think that Phil, you and Love fulfil more of those accusations than I ever have, actually. ;)

Pep (Keep going, but don't blame me when your strategy rebounds. :cool: )

That's the whole point, Milla. It does matter what he writes when he continues his harrassment of one particular person. If nobody responds, then, sure enough, some people will get the impression that what he writes is true. To be honest, I wouldn't like to be targetted in that way without anyone objecting to it.

Anyone stupid enough to believe Pep's garbage is probably far beyond your help.

Sorry, but that won't do. You said that I wish death on you. Now quote where I wrote it, or zip it.
Haven't you worked out yet that you are just demonstrating your impotence by saying stupid things like that?

From: Phil Deakins
Out of interest, that quote was me expressing a preference as the way you would go and not a wish that you would actually go. English too hard for you?
So you don't want me to go? You want me to survive a firing squad?

Pep (Perhaps you want me to live forever? :rolleyes: )

If no one reads or responds to the idiot's posts, then it doesn't really matter what it writes, does it?

Now, now, children, stop squabbling.

Pep (Can't you see you're both wrong? Lose-lose Phil called it. He didn't mention the obvious solution though.)

I am normally a lurker and don't post much, nor do I read the undying thread so missed the initial cause of all this, But I am heartily sick of seeing Peps posts bring up the same old moan time and time again. I come to these forums looking for answers to sl related topics and lately all there seems to be is thread derailments by Pep, who when called on that fact claims he is doing it because

"Pep (My point has always been that her disgusting posts would upset the more sensitive participants in the forums and that those who support her should be similarly reviled.)"

If Pep is really so concerned with the more sensitive participants in the forums then why has he not let the matter drop? He is the one that is bring up a sensitive subject time and time again. I completely agree the original post was way over the top ( from what I can see) and no matter the reason for it (friends leaving or the size of thighs) things like that should never be wished on anyone. However Pep needs to get a grip on himself and stop behaving like a bairn.

I applaud Phil for having the stones to confront this directly and try to get something done about it. Yes the best way to deal with bullies and attention seekers is to just ignore them, but that shouldn't mean we just stand by and watch someone being constantly harassed and reminded of an outburst which most likely they probably regret now.

Anyway that's just my opinion, as I say I prefer to remain in the background, but I felt this was worth saying.

I have seen nothing to suggest that this is the case, or that the warped mind that produced the vitriolic post is feeling any remorse whatsoever.

Pep (In fact, Rhonda subsequently posted specifically to say that she meant every word and more.)

Oh dear, I forgot that you can't read more than ten words without forgetting what the first one was.

It is a forum on the internet. If anyone is going to base opinions about a person completely on what ONE other person posts, then that person isn't worth my bother anyway.

I have been reading these forums almost every day for 3 years and there has never been anyone on my ignore list. But, I do tend to not read what certain people write because to me, they offer no benefit to the forums and write nothing but a bunch of pompous troll blather with (you decide what kind of) statements between parenthesis. These are the ones that do not contribute any value to the forums.

If forum rules have been broken, then the offender should be reported, but I have no confidence in LL moderation here. Therefore, I think it is up to the forum users as a group to moderate themselves, and in this case I think Phil is right to call out the improper behavior of one forum participant against another.

This is not the first incident and it probably wont stop until these forums are gone.

So Phil is right to call me out for what *you* and *he* call improper behaviour (although this is by no means an universal view) which is my calling out someone else's behaviour which is *most definitely* improper, by *any* measure.

Pep (Double standards?)

Well, there are dickheads of both (all?) sexes lined up in opposition to me. :p

Dytska:
Ignore the response you got to your post. Coincidentally, I'd just been thinking that I haven't seen a single post in support of his harrassment crusade. There are some people who support not responding to it but I haven't seen any support for what he's doing. He's wrong about that.

Any number of people have gone on public record as expressing absolute distaste for Rhonda's expletive filled tirade urging my painful death. Even you (from a point of view of ignorance I suspect) suggested that perhaps it was inappropriate before performing a volte face and supporting it, offering various different pathetic apologia for it.

Pep (I defy anyone to quote her original post and say that it is appropriate material for these forums.)

Stalking and harassing residents is against forum guidelines and the TOS.
