We live in a free country, after all, and anyone is entitled to write wherever they want: she can do as she pleases, just as I can.
But that isn't actually the issue.
The real problem is her constant pattern of disrespecting moderators, both within our American community forum and over on that other site.
And right here on this forum:
Angie is being stubborn,
acting provocatively,
and just behaving wildly.
I honestly find myself thinking: if you feel like everything here is so terrible, why are you even staying?
Is someone forcing you to be here?
Or are you intentionally—and quite calculatedly—stirring the pot? 😉
(And there is already a specific protocol for handling that kind of behavior.)
In my private messages, she actually insulted a colleague of mine (a fellow member of our American community), and I have reported those posts to the admins; however, they haven't been made public because the content was far too personal—those who need to know, know.
Furthermore, there are screenshots from that other forum that clearly show who said what, when, and where, proving her intentions were quite deliberate. I've sent all of that, along with the direct links, to the administrators.
After this whole saga, she is now posting destructive messages in the American community section of the forum, which seem to be orchestrated from that other site.
It is actively undermining the topic at hand (though the posts have been removed, they can certainly be restored if necessary).
And she still hasn't learned her lesson.
(Because, in my view, this is pure insolence.)
I consider myself quite tolerant (and frankly, Angie is lucky) that I haven't issued any sort of "red card" yet. 🥳
I am honestly reaching my limit with this constant tug-of-war, and it isn't even because of this latest bit of trolling or provocation.
It's because of the entire pattern of behavior.
I won't even get into the moral side of things: as a former moderator, I believe Angie is more than aware of exactly what she is doing and how thin the line is that she is dancing on.
In that regard, I think she deserves much more than just having her posts deleted.
Thanks for listening. 🙂
If this weren't so pathetic, it would almost be funny... Did you mention that you also logged into that other forum under the name Paplin? Or did you brag about going over there to spy (how brilliant!) or just to hang out with people? I couldn't say. Only you know why you signed up there and whether it was some sort of mutual agreement between you two (how desperate). I never once praised that other forum, nor did I invite anyone to join it; I believe it is my personal right to decide how many different forums I want to be a part of. I haven't spent a single second praising other forums or sites where people socialize (unlike kika, who openly invited everyone to a Facebook chat). I stated my opinion about kika publicly, and I stand by it. Who are you to act this way and then try to use kika to punish me? What happened? Could you not handle it yourself, or is kika simply the black sheep who has to carry everyone else's baggage? Or perhaps you volunteered to take the fall so you could stay looking innocent while she remains the one viewed as desperate by the rest of the American community. It's truly terrible... you even went as far as deleting my harmless posts in the chat... In my opinion, those posts should be restored so everyone can read them and judge for themselves. And I will ask the admin again: isn't there supposed to be a specific topic for the chat? And where did you get the idea that nothing I say here is valid? Don't try to put your own words in my mouth... you do that to everyone, so please, control yourself. I love this forum, but I really don't like you two. Honestly, you are becoming harder and harder to like; you've turned into exactly what I suspected you would. As for kika, I have my opinion, and I'm certainly not the only one—about 80% of the American community feels the same way. If I didn't love this forum, I wouldn't be writing on it. I'm not the only one complaining about kika. If the admins reading this see the trouble she causes, they will realize what needs to be done. You said this is a free medium... so why did you delete all my posts if it's supposed to be free? Or do you think it's only "free" for you, since you have the power to censor while I don't? That's quite a version of freedom! And regarding what I "deserve," you've already shown your hand by calling upon the veteran kika to step in and punish me! You aren't actually that brave, because you know deep down that I am right.
I wanted to reach out and ask the admins one more time just to be absolutely certain: are we allowed to discuss pretty much anything here in the chat, or is there a specific set of topics we should be sticking to? I'd love to know if there's a particular theme we need to follow!
