Re: [RC] Anonymity - heidiHeidi said< Uh, the guest forum has a place where you have to put in your name. "Voodoo" is what this person deliberately put in the name slot instead of her real name. So no, "Voodoo" didn't forget--"Voodoo" was sending a message right from the git go. Had she not deliberately wished to remain anonymous, she would have put in at least a first name, like the legit guest posters do. *** Actually, Voodoo is a name I am often called by. It is a mutation of "Witchy Poo" who was a charactor on H.R. Puffinstuff. (I loved that show) Seems my friends think I laugh like her. Anyway over the years it went from Witchy Poo to Voodoo. I am not clear why & I am sure you don't care. I rest my case--you did not "forget"--you deliberately hid behind a pseudonym. So for all of you that are tired of these postings, I am sorry. When the others quit attacking me with their assuptions & mis-leading posts, then I will go away. I believe my goal was met long ago, but if you persist in dragging me back in by accusing me of things I never said & making stuff up, then so be it. Then kindly quit accusing Lynne of things she never said--I can't vouch for what she may have said in camp (although having vetted rides for Lynne, I highly doubt the spin you have put on it), but she has NOT "attacked" on the Internet as you stated. I've read and reread the posting (that was forwarded to this list by someone other than Lynne, I might add--she did not "bring" this to this forum) and fail to see how you can construe it as an attack or whining by a ride manager. Her post was quite gracious, admitted that she was burned out, and was not confrontational. Admit it is not nice for a person to scream at you or talk nasty behind your back. Admit that if someone is going to slam people in ridecamp & over the internet, they will likely get slammed back. Understand that I never said one word until the slamming came to the internet. I agree with those things in concept--what I fail to see is how you apply them in this case. By the way, I have a box full of private emails from people who don't want to be outted, but who support me. I know, I know I could be just making that up & I have no credibility. But for those who did send emails of support, please know I got lots more besides yours. Every whiner seems to attract a band of groupies--seems to be a holdover from the stuff that third-grade girls do. Even those who advocate that the world is flat seem to attract a following.... So I believe you that some folks supported you, actually. But I question their point of reference and their ability to see this objectively as well. I still maintain that if you come on a forum as a GUEST, and malign a member of that forum, you are a coward not to at least identify yourself and that you have abused the perogatives of a guest, to boot.
