In context, Remember Me Feb 2012 #98

Fair enough kdmorris Feb 2012 #101

seabeyond, please let the election take place here. boston bean Feb 2012 #33

I'd just like to state the following justiceischeap Feb 2012 #20

I disagree. boston bean Feb 2012 #21

What exactly do you disagree with? justiceischeap Feb 2012 #24

no, that a non feminist should run this group. boston bean Feb 2012 #25

That's not at all what I said justiceischeap Feb 2012 #30

please pm me if you want to explore this more deeply. boston bean Feb 2012 #31

Hey now The Straight Story Feb 2012 #64

I think your feelings aren't incompatible with a vote wildflower Feb 2012 #26

before this happened iverglas Feb 2012 #104

thank you. i concur. Scout Feb 2012 #142

I have no problem with your nominations but I also don't see an immediate need to do it now maddezmom Feb 2012 #22

I disagree. boston bean Feb 2012 #23

but some do see a reason to wait and if you going to insist on a vote now maddezmom Feb 2012 #34

I totally agree with Boston Bean -- Remember Me Feb 2012 #41

I think it's going to take more than the vote to get things back to normal maddezmom Feb 2012 #48

Yes it will. Remember Me Feb 2012 #53

And calls to vote now are an attempt to rush through a new main host when the current one is fine Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #50

Oh, please Remember Me Feb 2012 #52

^_^ This. nt justiceischeap Feb 2012 #36

I agree. Lisa D Feb 2012 #40

Those of us who are regulars DO have an understanding. Remember Me Feb 2012 #42

I have read here daily since the group started The empressof all Feb 2012 #44

I wish someone would share those issues of not feeling comfortable here, in this group. redqueen Feb 2012 #49

I feel uncomfortable when someone implies people aren't regulars justiceischeap Feb 2012 #56

Regular participants are just that. redqueen Feb 2012 #66

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? iverglas Feb 2012 #105

Redqueen: Here's an example for you justiceischeap Feb 2012 #109

No answers? iverglas Feb 2012 #110

Actually there were answers, PM'd to Redqueen. n/t justiceischeap Feb 2012 #112

well fuck that noise, eh? iverglas Feb 2012 #114

It's in reply to Redqueen's question justiceischeap Feb 2012 #116

I've used the word 'regulars' and I don't act as though I own the group... Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #171

They have over and over again The empressof all Feb 2012 #58

That is the only issue that seemed to be routinely referred to redqueen Feb 2012 #69

There are trolls showing up in every group The empressof all Feb 2012 #76

I'll check the thread views in the BOG and get back to you. redqueen Feb 2012 #87

Please understand I say this trying to be helpful The empressof all Feb 2012 #102

I have to agree with this statement. justiceischeap Feb 2012 #103

I'm not saying "yeah but"... redqueen Feb 2012 #108

I'm not denying there is a problem. redqueen Feb 2012 #106

The problem is that people feel uncomfortable The empressof all Feb 2012 #113

I feel extremely uncomfortable with a lead host that boston bean Feb 2012 #160

I feel uncomfortable that there seems to be a concerted effort redqueen Feb 2012 #179

I have also voiced that I did not feel comfortable here. TriMera Feb 2012 #68

What more is there? The trolls? redqueen Feb 2012 #73

I did not say anything about the thread title TriMera Feb 2012 #79

The trolls used very subtle slights. redqueen Feb 2012 #84

"and the "lispy queen" comment was said "affectionately" mtnester Feb 2012 #146

Are we claiming that this kind of comment is bullying, redqueen Feb 2012 #174

NO, I am claiming that saying it was said affectionately is a PANTLOAD mtnester Feb 2012 #186

You're cursing at me and accusing me of spin and denial. redqueen Feb 2012 #187

Get a mirror, use it mtnester Feb 2012 #188

Well,I haven't read here daily and I DO have a clue -- a very good one Remember Me Feb 2012 #60

Actually, I should amend my statement Remember Me Feb 2012 #78

i agree. i also what to know what is the accountability process La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2012 #65

why? why do you want to know this? iverglas Feb 2012 #107

I think JustAnotherGen Feb 2012 #43

ok Vanje Feb 2012 #45

No thank you The empressof all Feb 2012 #47

Very well then..... Vanje Feb 2012 #159

I propose that we wait. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #46

I support this idea and would support you handling the vote process maddezmom Feb 2012 #51

I don't suppor it. Remember Me Feb 2012 #59

okay n/t maddezmom Feb 2012 #62

I don't support it either n/t Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #67

okay n/t maddezmom Feb 2012 #71

I don't support it either. nt PassingFair Feb 2012 #81

I would support that as well mtnester Feb 2012 #147

The current host -- WHERE THE HELL IS SHE??? -- nowhere to be seen except when Remember Me Feb 2012 #57

I want hosts who can look beyond their own personal allegiances and facilitate discussion. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #70

You GOTTA be kidding me Remember Me Feb 2012 #74

I assure you, it's none of that. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #83

by the bar you have set, you might not be the best person suited for the job either.. boston bean Feb 2012 #80

I stated in this thread that I have no interest in hosting here. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #88

That is exactly what I am saying, yet someone wants to run a new election boston bean Feb 2012 #91

I suggested that as part of a disagreement with your call for an election. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #93

I have plenty of time, that is why I volunteered. boston bean Feb 2012 #99

I thought that I've volunteered for this, by just posting this, is there something wrong with me? boston bean Feb 2012 #61

yes. you have clear allegiances here that makes you a very impartial person La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2012 #72

really lioness? boston bean Feb 2012 #75

ok. i dont think you'll deliberately screw up tallying at all. La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2012 #77

I do think Neoma should go as host, that much is clear! boston bean Feb 2012 #85

i am opposed to doing anything this minute La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2012 #86

Neoma is an unelected lead host boston bean Feb 2012 #96

why is it too fast? no one has given a good reason for that Remember Me Feb 2012 #151

No, but not everyone thinks we've agreed to throw out the current hosts. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #90

No, it is an election thread. boston bean Feb 2012 #92

I'm deleted this Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #95

ah no, are you? boston bean Feb 2012 #97

I support this. Lisa D Feb 2012 #117

I propose that Remember Me Feb 2012 #149

i do not support this idea. Scout Feb 2012 #150

My vote and a comment... Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #63

Boy, do I agree with that, Violet Remember Me Feb 2012 #82

If they're subscribed members of the group and they haven't been blocked, they should get a vote.n/t Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #89

Totally disagree Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #111

I truly hope that the objections about having this election now v a week from now boston bean Feb 2012 #118

Someone suggested having a members' only vote Lisa D Feb 2012 #119

I suppose they will be decided in this thread. boston bean Feb 2012 #120

So if a majority votes for two hosts, Lisa D Feb 2012 #122

A majority votes for lead host boston bean Feb 2012 #129

Good point. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #121

Wow. We've gained over 30 new subscribers since this started. redqueen Feb 2012 #123

So rolling back to before it started is probably in order, right? n/t Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #125

I wouldn't say that. redqueen Feb 2012 #126

if you do not participate in the group. and you are not a subscriber before today seabeyond Feb 2012 #127

I would definitely say that is beneficial. boston bean Feb 2012 #128

It would certainly help dispel Lisa D Feb 2012 #124

You seem intent on making this whole thing difficult Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #130

No, I'm intent on solving the problem in a way that will dispel any hint that the hosting selection Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #133

redqueen, do you cross your heart, hope to cry, stick a needle in your seabeyond Feb 2012 #134

That's the sweetest thing I've seen posted in this group all day. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #135

That was cute, wasn't it! boston bean Feb 2012 #137

actually, with boys was.... tap your belly button with your toe.... seabeyond Feb 2012 #139

Neoma needs a time out first Gormy. boston bean Feb 2012 #136

Neoma seems to be taking a timeout. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #145

No, that is not what I meant boston bean Feb 2012 #148

No. Yr deliberately trying to complicate matters Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #138

not to mention it was merely a month ago, or less, we already had this election. i have heard NO seabeyond Feb 2012 #141

Your first sentence is not supported by the evidence. Gormy Cuss Feb 2012 #144

I'm afraid it is Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #157

that's exactly what is happening. Scout Feb 2012 #143

No, because there've been 30 new subscriptions today Remember Me Feb 2012 #152

Got it! boston bean Feb 2012 #140

redqueen, seabeyond and iverglas as hosts n/t Scout Feb 2012 #100

Thank you scout! boston bean Feb 2012 #132

This message was self-deleted by its author boston bean Feb 2012 #158

I came to this position yesterday, and I am not averse to it. boston bean Feb 2012 #161

That's not the only recourse -- Skinner can remove a host Remember Me Feb 2012 #167

I have witnessed this with other groups boston bean Feb 2012 #169

The election process has already begun. Lisa D Feb 2012 #162

That is a good point. boston bean Feb 2012 #163

There's no reason why the existing votes can't be reconciled. laconicsax Feb 2012 #164

Laconicsax, neoma will not resign, she has stated that. boston bean Feb 2012 #165

Then we should have those as separate elections. laconicsax Feb 2012 #166

There is no other way to remove a rogue host. boston bean Feb 2012 #168

You don't need to elect a whole new set to remove one. laconicsax Feb 2012 #170

Lac, start a thread about ousting her. boston bean Feb 2012 #177

Has Neoma been in touch with any of you hosts? Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #172

No, she has not contacted me. redqueen Feb 2012 #180

Whether it "should" or not Ms. Toad Feb 2012 #176

This is important: whoever becomes hosts -- the software trumps your other Remember Me Feb 2012 #178

My point was that hosts can choose to override that hierarchy by not taking unilateral action. laconicsax Feb 2012 #189

It would be nice - Ms. Toad Feb 2012 #190

I think I already voted, but I'll do it again Remember Me Feb 2012 #154

Lead host: redqueen. Co-host: seabeyond. noamnety Feb 2012 #155

Thank you noamnety! boston bean Feb 2012 #156

My vote is Neoma mtnester Feb 2012 #173

I've got my nomination for co-host here... Violet_Crumble Feb 2012 #175

Redqueen. JTFrog Feb 2012 #181

i agree with your whole post, and love seeing you in here seabeyond Feb 2012 #183

I'll vouch for your continued interest and participation in feminist discussions, JTFrog... redqueen Feb 2012 #185

I've missed 98% of what's gone on the past week, CrispyQ Feb 2012 #182
