I like to think I played a key part in running powayseller off the site, but I’m just kidding myself. She did that all on her own…
I shouldn’t joke though. It was really a shame that it happened and it’s sad to see someone put themselves in that position. We’ve probably all been there, you just keep digging the hole deeper and deeper… At least I know I have.
I think she has a lot to offer and that she’s really a good person. I just think this site became too big a part of her life. The lure of web celebrity is a powerful one. I certainly hope she’s happy now.
Myself, I went away for a while. I love this site and am often fascinated, amused, sickened and educated by what I find here. Oh, and I flat out love Rich’s writing style!
But, I was just spending too much time and/or had too much going on in my life. So I went from reading every single post on every single thread (see, too much), to letting the yellow envelopes pile up.
But now, I’m back reading the threads that catch my interest and posting occasionally. Unfortunately, I have a tendency to mostly call people out when I think they’ve got some tidbit wrong or at least differ with my particular world view, typically with just a wee bit of sarcasm thrown in. Probably not my most endearing trait, but since I don’t let it phase me when it comes my way, I tell myself “it’s okay.”
Anyhoo, sorry to ramble, but I do enjoy a lot of the folk who have passed through here and those that are still here, so I just wanted to pop my head up.
