I think this video sums it up pretty well.

I think this video, IMO, sums up what Phatmass was like before the purge and what it's kind of been like since.

My question is...why? What good can come off all of this?

What is "all of this". Can u be more specific? What good can come of what?

So, since I have prayed  hard and thought much in my time away from the pham, and since deciding that it is no longer for me, I have nothing to lose in speaking my mind.

 

I also fully expect this post to be removed, I wonder if open free expression really is possible here?

 

1) None of us or what we write is a mere pixel..............I was grossly insulted by the post in which you dUst, stated that posts were merely pixels, to walk away from and not be sensitive over. I thought you were exhibiting an amount of insensitivity possibly in relation to the degree you thought we were all over-dramatising.

 

2) I will re-iterate my grave unease at phamily having been asked to vote or nominate other pholk for 'the purge' without  your saying in advance what would happen as a result.

Most people thought those nominated would be banned, we certainly did not imagine they would be publicly humiliated and pilloried. Such behaviour went out hundreds of years ago. Again, I had the impression that you were at your wits end, sick of us drama diva's and not having either thought or prayed about this in advance. Maybe you did...but I cannot imagine where the Holy Spirit was in all of that. Never mind simple Christian charity.

I can only say how pleased I was when someone sent me a pm to say you had removed it.

 

3) Mods. I thought you exhibited a massive amount of personal animosity by posting that 'past mods are dead to me'.

If that is the best way you can think of them better to keep that thinking to yourself. Mods do a great job and if they leave that job they deserve to be respected for having done it, not rubbished in one fell statement.

You clearly were not prepared to listen to the vox populi re mods. Some were still very much in peoples mind as having done a good job, and one person had an entire thread dedicated to her - I thought  the implication for VS was clear, we wanted her for mod. Of course, as has been stated all over the phorum, this is YOUR site and you can do as you wish. Evidently you do just that, but I would encourage a little more thoughtful, prayerful consideration in the future. A future I will no longer be part of because I cannot in all conscience lend myself to a site that operates in such an unfair (IMO sometimes unchristian) manner.

 

Thank you to everyone who does care about this site and who works to make it worthy of it's Catholic heritage.

3) Mediators of Meh. I thought you exhibited a massive amount of personal animosity by posting that 'past Mediators of Meh are dead to me'.

If that is the best way you can think of them better to keep that thinking to yourself. Mediators of Meh do a great job and if they leave that job they deserve to be respected for having done it, not rubbished in one fell statement.

You clearly were not prepared to listen to the vox populi re Mediators of Meh. Some were still very much in peoples mind as having done a good job, and one person had an entire thread dedicated to her - I thought  the implication for VS was clear, we wanted her for Mediator of Meh. Of course, as has been stated all over the phorum, this is YOUR site and you can do as you wish.

I apologize profusely for offending you. Every example you gave regarding my actions were not intended to be taken seriously.

 

I am a silly person. On the internet, and in real life. You are right about me not praying though. I did not pray specifically about any of those things you mentioned because I did not consider them anything more than me having fun being an idiot. 

 

Again, sorry. There is not a lot I can do to change the way people react to me. I learned that a long time ago. Either people will get me or they won't. They will tolerate my moments of stupidity or they will not. 

 

I hope you at least got something out of this crazy place we built while you were here. God bless. Please pray that I do better!

Max, sorry to see you go. 

 

I don't always agree with certain things (at the moment, I really don't agree with the Mediator of Meh rubbish going on...I would think a Catholic site should have Catholic Mediators of Meh, just saying, I guess when it comes to being involved on the site, it's apparently worse to be a woman than to not be a Catholic, and it's probably just a joke but I still find it a bit too mean spirited and generally just plain offensive.) 

 

Nonetheless, the fellowship and interacting the people on this site overall is greater than whatever disagreements there are.

This was not written to me, but I appreciate the sincerity of this post. Thank you Dust.
