Unfortunate PM

Boardman, I have never defended this provider. If I've led you to think that I have, please provide a link to the post that confused you. I can't. My bad!

What I know about her is that she's a very attractive woman who was planning to come to Houston, and now she's not. It's the latest example of how the lynch mob is screwing up Houston's reputation.
I still thinck that is up for debate.

Because it's funny to do it, apparently. Originally Posted by blowpop

BP... I hold you in EXREMELY high regard, and truely appreciate you for a wealth of information for this board, but I disagree with you here... I honestly do not think that the "lynch mob" had anything to do with her no showing up here...... Look back at the posts in question... and I defy you to find the posts of her being "Attacked".... I cannot (obviously) speak to the PMs she recieved, but those should have been delt with by the powers that be..... either way, the "deplorable" people here in town could be EASILY avoided on her part if she was so booked...... and if she was so booked, then she would have KNOWN that the silent masses have shown themsleves as such......





So that is an agreement that it was in fact advertising? That is ALL anyone was saying in the first place! The difference is you did not get all offended this time around....... I am so confused by why this is! Again... when it works for you it is just fine.... when it is said not completely with you it does not work and is in fact an attack or harrassment?

Its like the kid in the movie Big Daddy.... every game is an "I win!"?

Ok really gotta go now...

Oh right...I forgot, it's ok for you guys to say rude things about certain providers, but not anyone else.... Originally Posted by Valerie

It does not matter the source or the circumstance - it should not happen.

proper said it best! Before I get called a WK for getting pissed off about that "white trash" comment, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it was made in the heat of the moment.

So, here's my proposal, Valerie..........

Surely, one who demands respect and common decency (to paraphrase all you claim to seek) is capable of recognizing when she has stooped to a level beneath that of which she complains?

I'll give you some time to reflect and make appropriate amends before my next post. Common decency will dictate if and when I am so compelled. Trusting the necessity to do so will not present itself, I remain.........

Wow. Just getting caught up on this one. Had no idea all this drama was going on. And haven't read enough of the threads leading to this to quite understand. I was just looking forward to having drinks that Valerie had mentioned one evening with the group. And maybe even treat myself to Valerie for my birthday before heading to the cook-off on Thursday. Damn.

No, it is not ok for anyone to call people white trash on the boards. IMHO

Now if you are just answering that others person namecalling, I say game on.

I do not know the history of WTF ya'll are talking about though. I'm just generally speaking, generally.

Not necessarily funny, although it can be when they go full blown hooktard but if you thinck that is what I am doing in this case then you aren't reading my posts. Originally Posted by boardman

If your message isn't getting through, perhaps it's time to improve your signal to noise ratio?

Can you read?? I mean have you even read this thread? Because if you have and you actually just posted that then.....wow...

I've already explained why I cancelled, had nothing to do with lack of business.



Perhaps....and when I began posting I cut up with some of the guys, but then things began to escalate, a certain person got banned, and I was blamed for it (indirectly of course)... Originally Posted by Valerie

If that's truly the case, it says a lot about you. You claim to be 70% pre-booked and you cancel on these pre-booked guys because OTHER guys harass you on the boards? You weren't pre-booked with the guys harassing you were you? As far as the "harassment" went yes, there was a group of guys a small group at that, that gave you some crap, but you stirred the pot and continued to provoke them. You're talking about maybe less than 1% of the male hobbiest in Houston. You continued to exchange jabs with them for a long time, it wasn't a one way street.

It's pretty crappy in my opinion for you to do this to the guys that pre-booked you. They didn't harass you, nor did 99% of the Houston hobbiest. I guess to me it's more understandable to say hey, I didn't get enough pre-books to justify coming, but I guess that's a little hard on the ego of a $400 girl. To say, yeah, i'm all booked up, but 3 guys harassed me everytime I exchanged posts with them, so I'm not coming sounds pretty ridiculous to me.

Sorry BP, I'm sure there will be another English girl to come through here. But I really don't believe harassment was the reason. I do agree some guys could be a little more welcoming to traveling providers.

Please don't confuse what I was saying there, and I appologize if that is what it sounded like I was saying.......... All I was commenting on what those specific times your threads were called threADs..... again, I don't think that that is being rude, but rather that hobbyist stating what he precieved to be an observation....... Again... that being said, that is completely fine..... if you post threADs, then you do... BFD! You're right! You're not hurting anyone.... and if they don't like it they wont read it.... but they are allowed to call it as they see it too.... that's all this is all about IMHO.... and the fact that you allowed those small remarks turn you upside down is a bit off putting... and is also just an opening for them to allow you to push yourself further........

So again.... its ok for you to speak your mind and say what you want.... but not ok for others to do the same? Why is that? Who was making fun of your accent? (whoever doesn't think a brittish accent isn't sexy as fuck is just plain WRONG!!! because it is!!) And how do you think the cat pics have ANYTHING to do with you? I'm sorry to say, but the Cat pics have been around LOOOONG before you even thought about posting here....... I think you are truly missing an opportunity here and are looking at things in a very narrow minded fashion...... very disappointing if you want my opinion.... which you probably don't.... either way I'm sorry you have chosen to take things this way, because that is not in fact how things are here......

Couldn't have said it better myself KS.

With that signature block...nope...not advertising much...

Valerie isn't one of A1's provider handles is it? You know, I wouldn't put it past him to try and pull this off.
