Great post Tony, but you'll probably see it get deleted. Freedom of speech doesn't work over there. Or it does, but only for a select few. Let's see how long it takes before someone brings that up again over there, now. I just KNOW that they are watching everything that goes on over here! It's really pretty funny! I'm staying out of that place...the best are over here now. Merry

I'd bet it's deleted, too, Tony. They won't get it. Either Sarah or Daniel deleted TMT. Sarah is the one who jumped right in with the apologies and was taking all the heat before Daniel came along. I don't know if he was busy behind the scenes trying to fix things or if he did the big mistake. |

I AM THE BIGGEST JOHN FAN!
|
Damn. I miss everything. I go away for a few days and have to read dozens of pages on both forums and make about 4 phone calls to get all caught up. I fall asleep due to utter exhaustion and find I have dozens of pages to read on both forums and I still don`t know what I missed. I`d start making those phone calls if it weren`t so late. I know, I`ll get drunk and call Holly

You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand John came to me in a dream and this is what he said. "I had a vision of a man on a flaming pie, and he told me that Betsy with a B not Lisa with a L is the biggest fan of mine". John trumps 'the boss' ! I WAS ROBBED BY THAT DEVIL WOMAN | |

Do please tell what I missed. What was this infamous thread of Bridgets? I can`t seem to find it. I am now going to start working on breaking the guiness book of records for consecutive days without sleep. Seems the only way I can make certain I don`t fall out of the loop again. |

Yes! And at the same time, undermoderating other threads. Of all the offensive and libellous remarks that are allowed to stay, Olen gets a warning? Get real! Obviously that couple are squeaky wheels but I remember having to kick and scream to get something done and the mods still didn't understand what the problem was. I'm happy to say that things are better now. Mind you, all the "no go" threads have been deleted now anyway. |

I do not think you need to explain yourself. You expressed your opinion. Many people here agree with you. The powers that be there clearly did not. And I tossed in my two cents. Life carries on. But this thread is becoming a little disturbing. Strawberry Fields is supposed to be the happy, friendly, nice place. At least that is how I see it from my naive little world. My concern is that this board may become an anti-that board. I am all for the occasional bitching and moaning, but if it becomes us versus them, everyone loses. This thread has a few comments about the inmates running the asylum. But if enough people from here make it their mission to disrupt things there, then who are the real troublemakers? I am not trying to tell anyone what to do or what they should or should not say. I am merely expressing my opinion, as I am sure we all agree that everyone has the right to do.
Who says I am cynical?

I do like the Macca forum, just because it's a place to talk about Paul without all them John fans getting in the way,
, but it is kind of strict sometimes and there's so much stuff you're not allowed to talk about. Like the whole Paul n Heather thing. I mean, I know it's the official board and everything, but what ever happened to freedom of speech??EDIT: My name's macca_mania on there by the way. |

Most of you bitched and whined about that place, and now someone has given you a nicer place, and what do you all do? You all go back there and turn it into an US against THEM. Keep on posting your crap there and it will be you who come out looking like JackASSES. |

Well thank you, Fiona, I'm not a "great" person, but I really like to see things go peacefully. I'm not a person who likes to see turmoil anywhere, and that's a fact! I hate to see the "them vs us" things that have been going on. I think all of us are above that, by doing so we are just lowering our own standards. Let's go our own way and let the chips fall where they may over there. It became oppressive anyway, and we have this wonderful forum, I'm very proud to be a member! We have a great group of people on this forum and I think it's best that we let the others go and enjoy what we have. I know alot of you still want to post over there, you have friends and participate in certain forums; I wouldn't risk my membership over the petty things! I think the message has gotton through, the best thing to do now would be to just ignore it and carry on. Merry |

I agree with you Merry and I don't even know fully what is going on and I don't need to. Yours is a healthy, forward moving proposal. The book I just re-read...The Four Agreements says: Be impeccable with your word. Don't make assumptions. Don't take things personally. Always do your best. I know it may sound a bit trite and always easier said than done, but it will reduce needless suffering and drama. |

I agree with you completely, Merry.... apart from the bit denying that you're great, because you are - really. As for the Macca board - now is the time for us all to cut & run. I wanted both of these board to co-exist peacefully and still hope that can be achieved. This has solved nothing other than to make it look as if we have a group of troublemakers here - and I'm sure a lot of people would include me in that description. I also agree with BEATNUT's opinion that with our criticisms of their behaviour we're making "those people" appear to be 'victims'. Obviously you're all your own people - I respect everyone's point of view here and I certainly respect the intelligence of many people who post here, but I would really like to see an end to this now. Going to that forum purely for the purpose of causing trouble is just tormenting the moderators over there who are probably doing their best to keep order & sanity there... I'm not taking any pleasure in watching that message board having the most difficult phase of it's 'life'. They have a way of doing things over there which means that many people feel stifled and censored. We understand that - that's why we created this place, but there's nothing we can do about the Macca board's policies, other than PM the mods and admin with our concerns. OK, that's probably not going to achieve much, but it's the right way of doing things. Terrorizing that message board really isn't going to do anything except get a lot of people banned - and none of you should burn your bridges, unless you're absolutely certain that's what you want. Let's all move on - please. However, I must say this: Thank you all so much for your support and for consistently saying how much you appreciate this forum - it warms our hearts and makes it all worthwhile. Strawberry Fields Forever.

The membership here doesn't seem to be wearing blinders, & insist that they are right, & you are wrong, & that's all there is to the issue. (Kindly do not cloud the issue with facts!) I'm so glad that we have somewhere to say what we think, & not be ridiculed for having a different opinion. I can yell until I'm blue, & they will refuse to concede that I may have a valid point. So, why bother? I'm wasting my time, & energy on people who don't have any respect for others. I'd rather come here, & be with those who do understand what respect, freedom of speech, & civility is. Thank-you!!!!

I am glad I took a little break from both boards this weekend. I don't know what happened, but remember it's only the internet and sometimes things get blown out way out of proportion. Hell, I've been guilty of doing this several times. I am going to continue to post at both places and I still like the Macca Board. I hate feeling made bad for liking that place though. I feel in here if I say I still like the Macca board I'm going to be run out of this place. I hate that feeling. |

Thanks Merry, I'm just getting sick of "our board is better than their board" mentality some of you have. It makes people who post there and post here feel like they should just post here. I'm sorry that's how I feel. I know that's not what people are intending to say, but that's how it comes across. That those of us who post there are bad because we post there. Maybe that's how I'm interperting it.

i have no problem with people unless they disagree with me but seriously i will say that i did not take kindly to receiving pm's three year ago from someone wanting me to gang up on Harley to bash her when all i was doing was pulling the poor american leg. now her compatriot obviously had a venomous dislike of harley the reasons of which i was not privy to then or since but she did not like me due to my refusal to join in her little "hate" game. yes she posted a couple of things meant to hurt me like i could give a f*ck. but consequently she left me alone for three years so far just the way i like it. i can't prove it but knowing myself i probably didn't congratulate her on her marriage. i dont talk to her and she not to me and that's just fine by me. |

Well, here's another clue for you all, the Walrus was Paul...
|
Personally, I don't have the "Us VS Them" mentality. I have no issues with anyone on the Macca board...or with anyone on this board. Although I understand the reasoning behind peoples feelings. I do (and always will) have issues with the condescending way the Macca board is run...but one of my favorite quotes fits in here: And as we all know in life, it's useless to obsess about things over which we have no control. I have never once felt 'bad' about posting on the Macca board while being a member here...and while I do believe this board is enormously more satisfying to post on...I will remain a member of the Macca board as long as Paul McCartney remains. |

I posted this on the PM board today. Let's see if it last. Strawberry Fields is a great forum. We still enjoy Paul's forum but it has gotten too stifle with expression of words. Strawberry allows us to express ourself from within. We're not constantly told we're off topic (as if we couldn't get back on topic ourself), or we're not allowed to discuss so many topics that seemed to being not fit for the forum or darn if say anything negative, in a respectful way of course, of Paul or Heather. Or just members constantly PMing others asking if so and so is talking about them.....being reported and no one receiving warnings......let's just close the board down. It's gotten to the point where a lot of us felt so tense here because of a few constantly stirring up the pot and nothing ever being done about it. I don't want to be BANNED from here, because this is Paul's official forum, but I sure hope it one day turns more into the happy place I enjoyed going to when I was procrastinating. Cheers everyone, Judy And yes a BIG HUG ((((((Fioan and Andy for Strawberry Field))))) _________________ |

Thanks Rose. yes it is sad....so much has changed. I use to have fun there but not any more. I collect my PM's , answer them, do a lil posting, but nothing like it use to be. And for all the aggravation gong on, why they don't issue warnings so the crap stops is beyond me. A certain person are still PMing an asking if certain females are talking about them. GIVE IT A REST! |

oh Judy why did you do that, now the people over there are going think of us over here as troublemakers. They're going to group everyone over here who post over there as troublemakers even though some of us haven't caused trouble. Why are you guys doing this? Why can't you just move on? Just asking? By posting that type of post is only going to flan the flames and cause more troubles. |

Did you tell a certain person what is being said here? It's all in public, not private as far as I know. I am not getting into this board is better than that board. That isn't why I'm here. I can live with both boards and that is what I will do--although for the time being that board is a shadow of it's former self. It will come back. |

Because we are speaking our minds. Because some members are advertising this board over there. |

Molly, the only main person that seems to be having a problem with both boards co-existing is you. There are a few others, but you keep doing this back and forth thing. You keep bitching on both sites. Not everyone is perfect, but when anyone does anything, your the first one to pipe in complaining and making a bigger deal of it than it really is. Your the one drawing more attention to certain things and reading into things more than others. You need to step back and quit trying to play moderator to everyone. Sure, some people might have drawn a line between both boards and picked a side, but thats common. That will happen. What your failing to realize is your helping draw the lines for some of these people by bringing up every post where someone might have a complaint about the other place. People complain, they always do. |

Amen. And for those of us who were members from the beginning it is pretty sad to think that the Macca Board couldn't go back to its' glory days. It was a board that was a lot of fun. There were a lot of laughs as well as a lot of controversy. Would that board do well without certain people, of course it would. Just because the board isn't doing well right now doesn't mean that it isn't a worthwhile place. With a bit of nurturing by everyone it can be fun again. But in being fun, we should hope that we can, once again, talk politics WITHOUT the childish fingerpointing. We can be adults and agree to disagree in a respectful way. Give the board sometime and a break. Both this board and the Macca board can peacefully coexist. I, for one will not give up my membership there. To many good times were shared and many more to hopefully come. You do know that on the original Wingspan board, that evolved into PM.com, is where the Charmin joke was born. Just some twisted minds one Saturday night and it still is fun to bring up.

I agree, the Macca board was and could be again, a great place to go to as well. It's just that there are still disruptive elements that, at least for me, spoiled it all and still will. So, until some things are changed, I'm not too sure I'll be spending much time there. I'm really sorry about it too, because I have alot of fond memories of the progressive sites through the years.

For me personally.....I NEVER thought i'd admit this, but the best time I ever had on that board was fighting with Noa(scrambleseggs). Man she could drive you up the EFFIN wall, but I remember always being at my computer at 7pm til almost midnight nearly every night gang banging her. But she could dish it out and she could take it. I respect that sh*t. |

you are right!!!! i think each one of us had great memories there! but anyway i can still post there.. we were born there but.. this place is like home!!! it is like when were older and we often miss the good time we spent in the chilhood in our hometown..... well this board is like we could have a second chance to keep on having a good time.. !!! we can build our new own memories here!!! In the future we could say this forum were born in the 64 yr! and i am always amazed that in a way or other we can keep our friendship ..people from diferent parts of the world ..the whole world shearing experiences, opinion, geting to know the culture of each one has no price for all the memmber of this board a warm hug Win Or Lose, Sink Or Swim One Thing Is Certain We'll Never Give In Side By Side, Hand In Hand We All Stand Together and And Remember To Be ... Cosmically Conscious thanks merry you took me down to Strawberry Fields-> |

Pedro, that's absolutely beautiful, you've expressed it so well!
I agree with you completely, this is our new home where we can enjoy ourselves, have new good times, and look back nostalgically at the other forum. I don't think any of us want to give up our ties completely over there, but times have changed, conditions have too, and this has the same kind of feel and comraderie we once had, but lacking at Paul's now. You described it perfectly! Merry

That's a good point. I had a similar experience with someone you know well. For all the passionate disagreement, there was always respect there. But then something changed and he became incapable of making his point without being accusatory and slanderous. It's sad. Perhaps you're better off having fond memories. |

, but it is kind of strict sometimes and there's so much stuff you're not allowed to talk about. Like the whole Paul n Heather thing. I mean, I know it's the official board and everything, but what ever happened to freedom of speech??

:lol:
of the board over there~maybe we should advertise over there. :lol:
