Someone catch me up!
Out of all the weekends to go out of town...
Re: Someone catch me up!
Linz,
You're free to report any posts you feel are inappropriate (including the contents of siggies or the pics therein). I assume that the Nest and Knot staffers who are tasked with reviewing reported posts have guidelines by which they make their judgement. I've reported more than one poster and for varied reasons. Goin is the first person that I've seen banned, and I can only assume that it's because of her well documented harrassment of more than one knottie/nestie. I believe that any sane person who looked at her postings and rantings over the course of a couple of weeks would have to agree that she crossed the line more than once in how she addresses people and situations. I can't tell you whether on not she was also reporting posts, but she certainly should exercise her right to do so if she feels that that some are inappropriate.
Linz-
I don't like Goin because she's whiny and annoying. What did she contribute to the board other than, "How can I lose ten pounds fast?" and "Someone tell me where can find ________." She never added anything except posts that benefitted her alone. If she didn't like your answers, she'd continue posting her requests until she got flamed. She claims to be a teacher but if you look at the board and her recent activity, she's on the boards all the time--who's teaching her students? She knows I'm a teacher and knows absolutely zero about my schedule, but flamed me for being on the boards. She also got into a board war with a few different people, but then chose to attack all of us "google girls" thus erasing any chance of getting back into anyone's good graces. She posted lisaohgee's personal info online...who does that? I realize what you're saying about vulgar language or photos on the board, but posting someone's personal info makes you look childish and stalker-esque.
::tries to rememeber vulgar pictures::
::waves to Goin"
I have an easy schedule, I'll admit that. I am resource which means sometimes I have 10 kids, but many times I have none, for the day.
So before you open your mouth, know what you're talking about.
I don't know who the heck 678 is. I love the pics she posted, but I have no clue who she is. I wish she would be woman enough to say who she is so that people will stop blaming me, i'll say it to her face. I don't like her. I don't like ryanserafin either, she is exactly like she was in high school. 678 won't even step up and say who she is.

--Subject verb agreement error
--Lack of a comma in a compound sentence that uses a conjunction
--Starting 2 sentences with conjunctions
--Incorrect use of an article preceeding a word beginning in a vowel
--Ending 3 sentences with present tense verbs
--Two run on sentences
--Use of a comma between two independent clauses with no conjunction joining them (twice)
Wow! I was never an English teacher, and even I know this is an abuse of the English language. The special education and ESL middle school students that I taught had better writing skills than what we see displayed here. I'm sure Goin's students will have to just consider this year a wash and hope for meaningful instruction in the 2008-2009 school year.
By the way, Goin, I never spoke a word to you in high school. It's high time you stop pretending to have a clue that you know what I was like in high school. Unless, of course, your impression was that I acted like I was better than you. It wasn't an act then, and it's not an act now. Go bark up the tree of some other nutjob who might want to befriend you. Better yet, go drag your husband out of The Admiral and make him soothe your fragile soul. No one here is interested in your antics.
You know it says alot about a 33 year old who goes on message boards and puts people down. I might joke around or whatever, but you just are ruthless. I haven't said anything awful about you, and you just don't care about how anyone feels. You do this to a lot of people. I might not have perfect grammar and apelling, but then I'm not a grammar or spelling teacher. I teach special ed to students who can't read or spell three letter words. So I don't care what you say about how I type on a message board.
As for GIGI I would love for her to step up and say I emailed her husband. You know why she won't do it? Because I didn't do it. If I did, she would step up and make it known. She is full of it. And all you people on here who listen to these losers say these things about me and listen to them and gang up on me, you all have problems too. I wouldn't believe things people say on message boards. You all are quick to put people down just because someone who doesn't know me says something.
You emailed my husband.
What I posted on the knot was:
"A crazy chick from the Nest emailed my husband to tell him I'm a biitch. She figured out where he worked and our last name and was able to get an email address from that. It wasn't cool."
You then went crazy (crazier?) and posted a response to it saying it wasn't you and I had to stop telling people it was you. The thing is, Amy, I didn't post that it was you. I didn't have to. You did it for me.
Oh, and as for the dogs. Small breeds go fast and they go to the home/homes deemed best for the dog.
It would seem your home has not been the one of the ones deemed best for the dogs. Says a little something, don't you think?
Does Tom know how crazy you are? Maybe he hasn't noticed because he's too busy painting/growing rare truffles/selling houses/kyaking/refering mortgage people/flipping houses/curing cancer/going to strip clubs/answering all the phone calls from you posting his number on a chat board?
Honestly, before you started all this drama all of us horrible GG girls were really itching to know who it was the emailed Gigi's DH. She wouldn't spill because she's a classy lady. So thank you so much for incriminating yourself by filling in the blanks and letting us all know who it was the emailed Gigi's DH. Had you never outed yourself, we never would have known who it was. Thanks!
The Goin drama is longstanding. I would say that this nest round is similar to what happened on the knot before she stopped posting last year. Not the content persay, but the numerous questions, defensive answers, saying she's someone she isn't, bringing ridiculousness over with board wars, wacked out comments/actions and then a pretense that it never happened. I think her comment about not having drama IRL hits it on the head

Your bio is lovely btw!
You don't have to like me. Or my siggy pics. But there's no reason not to be here.
