Goodbye from Miss Vagabond.
I have only posted here irregularly, I admit that. I have been treated well. I also appreciate the fact that my ummm...unique postings and (celebrity-related) run-on sentences that pass for nonsensical posts, have been tolerated, and even responded to. Umm...I do apologize that the "Baileys thread" was not partially 'non-alchoholic'. I like to kid about some things but I don't nesassarily participate in them. Meaning. I'm actually too young to drink. That was my error in not mentioning that months ago.
However, as a show of solidarity to my co-M4E members, I am leaving. Though I acknowledge fully that I have not been posting nearly as often as many other people have at NIR, I have viewed the occurences and battles regarding fades, photo-evidence, and Paul VS Faul arguements that have been ongoing and resulted in some bad feelings for some poeple here.
I am probably younger then most of the people here--assuming most of you are not under 18 years of age. But it really saddens me to see that in one respect at least, the hoax that abounds on TKIN board (As proven by the very brave and admirable LJ on the ATT board) has seemingly caused the Moderators of this board (Some of whom I understand were once members of TKIN board) to become somewhat defensive at times towards constructive critisism, and honest and open debate.
I realise that by typing this post, I leave myself open to critisism. That is understandable. I don't dislike or have any reason to personally feel mistreated by anyone here. But, then again, I am a harmless, if not odd-ball poster. I have only recently even begun to feel comfortable posting as Miss Vagabond due to my past treatment and experiences (Prior to M4E and NIR) by both Mod's and Message Board Posters who happen to feel that teenagers, especially females, are open season on boards such as these.
I have been treated very well here at NIR. But then again, I am pretty harmless. I don't post fades, or pictures that might lead me to be chastised. It's a shame that there is an obviously over-controling environment towards those who openly disagree with the opinions expressed here at M4E by those who feel that Paul was replaced. I do not. Nor have I argued the point. It seems to be a waste of time. It only causes friction between the Mods and PIAer's. Of which, I am obviously one.
...I thank you all again for having me here. Maybe one one we'll all look back on our disagreeances and laugh about it...**haha...laughs weakly. Stern silence from the NIR audience**
To those of you who are both MOD's and participants here at NIR, I respect your views, though I disagree.
To the members of M4E who have fought valiently and feel strongly that Sir Paul is still very much alive--you know how this girl feels about the whole issue. And about each and every one of you. You are all very unique and special to me. I hope you realize that. Because it's very true.
P.S. I hope this post doesn't upset NIR Mods too, too much. I'd hate to have to start devoting some of my energy to spoofing YOUR board when I post at M4E with my occasionally over-wrought parodies and downright ludicrous spoofs, and poems... aka: PID Is Dead ! I'm KIDDING! ....Maybe. We'll see. Anywhoooo, I do not expect many tears over my departure....it only gets the message board all wet in any case.
***Miss Vaggie holds on for dear life and pulls the cyber-plug on her NIR membership. ***
...Oh. Ummm...Happy Holidays to all. ;D
