HiYa Barry Elephant

Sorry to PM you like this but you are right, I am wrong, and I do not mind being corrected.  Only this time it is deliberate.  The longer the debate goes on the more interest is generated.

We all know Alokin is a grumpy git, and he LOVES to whine and whinge, and that is because he seeks attention.  That is what I am giving him, public attention.  The thing is he can be quite useful when it comes to translating what the girls say.  So much quicker and better than I can ever be.  So he has his uses.

Call me cynical if you like, (or anything else for that matter, heard it all before). What I am doing is manipulating him.  I have already had a few PM's from him about "stuff", some may be true, other things maybe not. But they are PM's and not for public consumption, and I keep my word when I say I will not reveal anything to anyone. 

I have always found you get more from people with a carrot rather than a big stick.  That's why I'm giving him carrots, if I can keep him on board, then we will all be wiser.  That I think is worthwhile.

"Roksis" on the other hand is more open and useful with his translations, so I am cultivating that avenue as well.

Now please continue to shoot me down in flames publicly, it all adds to the facade.  Also continue mocking Alokin, he loves it.  So there you have it, my motive is to get a better understanding of N&K and their situation, to try and prolong ther stay on rlc.  If you think I am doing a bad job of it then point me in the right direction, and I'll change tack.

As I said PM's are private and should remain so I think I can trust you to do the same here.

Hi Barry,

I am trying very hard to ignore Solembum. He started off favourable towards Leora then decided that Paul was bad for her (not an uncommon view) but then starting blaming Leora for not leaving him It did not take him long before starting to criticise every aspect of her so that is bordering on abuse. He also has a problem with me because I suggested the reason he turned against her was because he tried to contact her (like several do, but not me) and she spurned him, so his repeated name calling was akin to that of a 5 year old. Since then I have also been a target despite the fact that I told him I was ignoring his bile.

Unfortunately i see what he says on the activity and if people quote him. Obviously I agree with his freedom to express himself, I just do not get why he persists with little or no support.

I wrote this as an alternative to attacking him on the board.

Cheers,

BB
