Momonomo,

Unsubscribing can be affected through PMing Jeff - effectively and privately.

So are you going to cut and run without any closure, or just slam the door as you leave?

Presumably you have moved on, and don't need it any more, or something/one has pi$$ed you off, and you don't care for any more.

Want to clarify before you leave?

Momonomo, of COURSE it is your choice to play or not play on this board, and your right to have yourself symbolically removed if you choose (of course it's not necessary to be removed in order to no longer participate.)

But what I'm sad about is that there appears to be a missed opportunity for us, namely that if there is something disturbing happening that causes you to choose to disengage, it is worthwhile to discuss that, and at least give the community a chance to look at it. They may not choose to act, but at least they do it with awareness rather than blasting along merrily having no idea when feelings are stepped on.

I'd encourage you to talk about it, rather than hit and run.

Just a thought...

It seems as if you want to make some kind of statement, else you could have just stopped logging in without asking to be "removed".

If that's the case, I think it's apparent from the replies, ***We're not getting the message!*** :duh

If you really do have something to say, please... feel free to tell us what's on your mind.

[dogzilla]

To everyone except momonomo:

I have a lot of experience on message boards and one thing I have learned over the last five or six years is this. When somebody posts something like this, it's nothing more than the equivalent of a 3-year-old's temper tantrum. Obviously there is no point in any adult saying, "Wah, I don't wanna play with you guys any more," other than manipulating all of us into gathering around begging to know what we could have possibly done wrong.

I, for one, do not give a rat's patootie. If someone has an issue with me, you all know you are welcome to PM me and work it out. But starting a new thread to tell us all that you don't want to post here any more = junior high. Like any three-year-old's temper tantrum, if you ignore it, it will go away.

[silverfox]

Momonomo - I won't jump to conclusions. Of course, your request will be honored. I wish you the best.

Others - why is his request being taken so personally and/or IMO, harshly? Why does one have to offer / owe us an explanation?

It appears that I need to post a thread with instructions on how to request for your membership to be canceled. One may not know that they should PM Jeff or a moderator.

I agree with you that my post was a bit harsh. Momo of course we would welcome your input. If you want to leave that of course is up to you.

I didn't take it personally. Just made an observation that people who make a big stink about leaving... or even a little stink... that's just an action that, to me, is the equivalent of jumping up and down, shouting, "Look at me! Look at me!"

I don't need an explanation, nor does anyone owe me any more than jacksquat. I just can't understand why you'd post a public message and not just slink off quietly. When this site fails to serve my needs, I'm probably not going to make a big announcement about it. One day, someone will pull his or her head out of his or her ass and say, "Gee, I haven't seen Dogzilla post here in ages. Anybody know what happened to her?" And the answer will be, "No, she must have found something else to do with her time."

Another thought has occurred to me. That some TBM close to momonomo made a fuss and demanded that he post a public resignation from this site. It has happened before on this site, so I will acknowledge that, on this forum only, a public resignation may be for the purpose of keeping family peace rather than as an attention-getting device. But since we have no way of knowing which case this situation fits...

'Zilla

In the event that you 'just quietly slink off', I want to let you know that your absence would be noticed, and I would be interested to know why.

You have been a regular, intelligent, and creative contributor. I have heard your story, different parts of it, and they have left a mark - my empathy for women who have been abused by men in power has developed as a result of hearing your story. And I have seen that people can respond to that sort of treatment by imploding or getting stronger, and smarter, and you always appear to have done the latter.

On occasion, you have challenged me, my rationale, or my presentation, even my nettiquette, but always respectfully. And I would like to think I am getting more 'skillful' as a result.

So why should I miss you if you 'slunk off'?

Because for a period, we were intimate, of sorts. Your story has touched me, and in measure, I have been changed by you and it.

Sure, if you did a dummy-spit and walked, I can rationalise that it is your problem; but that you could walk in that manner, after our mini-intimacy, would leave an impact here, in me. I would be left wondering, at least for a short period, after all they have been through, why would she walk like that, why could she not either:

Speak up about what was not working for her, or
Merely, walk quietly off into the sunset.

But, a process that is, or at least appears to be, the internet equivalent of doing dump on the dinner table prior to leaving the building, is an act that is unfathomable to me.

And it is not isolated. That does not pass by me unnoticed. A few people who have vacated here, have left in a similar manner. So I observe (compulsive pattern maker, that I am), 'That is a curious pattern. What does that say about exMos, or ones that are attracted here, or even way back to people who were attracted to Mo in the first place?'

Certainly it is consistent with poor boundaries, and Mo is good at creating and maintaining that. It is consistent with passive/aggressive behaviour, and Mo indirectly encourages that.

But, sadly, at the end of the day, I am left guessing; speculating 'What happened there?'

I'm going to try to refer more people to this site too. I love it so far. It has been a great way to discuss topics on a level that most people in this fair city are afraid to touch. You guys definately have a PostMo convert :D

And yes, Vixenz and I have known each other for about 2 1/2 years now. We've worked together in two different departments within our company for most of that time. Clubbing or partying with her and her husband and our other friends is always a blast. And she loves tequila as much as I do, so we get along great!

Geez, I take one day off work to celebrate Having a Dream and you guys have a party without me.

I suppose you've eaten all that dip, huh, P_M? Oh well...

Hey, if we're going to eat green jello ever again, then it should be made with at least half Belvedere vodka. (Absolut is swill. Trust me.)

So.

Pass the jello shots! I got a kick during Utah's BCS run in football a couple of years ago. The ESPN announcers couldn't stop talking about the BYU fans eating Jello, and the Utah fans taking Jello shots :D

Uhh... yeah. Didn't you guys ever watch Friends? Just one episode? Every time Joey Tribiani sees a hottie, he gives her this leer and says... (wait for it)

[Fake Italian New Yorker accent]

How YOU doin'

[/fake Italian New Yorker accent]

Born Free: Normally jello (that green gelatin mixture that mormons tortured us with for years) is made with boiling water and jello mix. Chill and the jello sets. Party girls like me have learned that you can make it with half water and half some sort of grain alcohol (vodka is lovely). Then you eat the jello "shots." I believe this phenomenon originated in the American college campus culture... probably invented during Spring Break in Florida. (There's a master's thesis: The Origins of Jello Shots)

For me, it just raises some interesting notions.

If that is the case, his slamming of the door might have been based in grief he was taking from StillMo wife on the other side of the door, rather than anything negative he experienced here on the 'inside'.
