Rob, you have just demonstrated why you run into problems and get criticism from other UHH members. You take yourself TOO seriously. Jr1 had the same problem. You both come off as arrogant know-it-alls. Lighten up. Maybe it's a limey thing. I don't know, but attitude is paramount and yours should be toned down. Paranoia can be the result of smoking too much weed or a mental disorder that needs professional attention. I'm sure you are a very nice person and an excellent photographer. I thought the pelican pics you just posted were excellent. Let's all take a breather. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes. Pissing and moaning about every little thing does not win friends and influence people.

Have a Happy New Year.

You've got some hide to quote me from a source that has been erased and can no longer be validated. In any case, that is not my grammar so it is false.

I have by no means changed my story. Is there any doubt that PalePictures was attempting to funnel members to his website? Not for a moment in my mind. Subtle, but true.

I know someone tried to block me from the site. You were successful but if indeed it wasn't you, you know who it was.

So why are you the one vocal on this?

Where is Nightski?

Can't she handle confrontation and defend and justify her own actions and decisions.

There you go, you did draw the short straw didn't you?

There are so many untruths in here that are obvious to any that know what went on.
So you have gone from accusing the other person "whose soul purpose in the critique forum is to promote themself" (your words, not mine) that you so ranted on about, and now you accuse me of enacting a vindictive grudge in outrage.
Are you going to publicly apologise to that person now that you have changed your story?

None of the above happened Rob, and you know it.
Stop trying to twist reality.
It only makes you look silly and immature.

I have never tried to block you from the section at all.
, neither before it started, nor after it started.
How could I? I am not a moderator or an ADMIN.
Where do you make this BS up from??

After having to leave UH,and later connecting with a computer,whether returning home or still not home,not
aware of any action in his absence from the section,
and finding that he was NOT NOW ALLOWED to post anything looks more like being shut out than merely suspended. The evidence has still been deleted!!! Not that we should expect anyone too woozy from wassail to think straight,nor too full of ignorance,or too opposed to thinking on certain dates. And then there are people too idiotic to address any serious incident because of some malady thinking themselves to be some other form of life than human, supposedly a higher form of life than a mouse because his tail is shorter and ears longer.

Stev3M - It is Christmas and you are seeing ignorance turned to hate? Me too,and all the more regrettable because it is Christmas. Of course I'm not sure whose ignorance and hate you think you are seeing. You are sick...I hope it isn't affecting what you think you see. You have decided to educate me--so this will stop? That's a bit condescending isn't it?

The fact that it IS Christmas, or was NEAR Christmas when a
a decision was made to ban a member who had no chance to defend himself is simply irrelevant. I know you to be a very reasonable individual who would realize that.
Too bad if unpleasantness interrupts your day. Sorry.

It has probably never occurred to anyone on UH that someone who regularly posts on UH could be interrupted from participating on this site...because that must be the most important thing in the world to those who live on it day and night. So it may be hard for you to imagine having to leave for perhaps a week and coming back only to find you had been totally banned from some section,..shortly before Christmas,if that matters...

So you're sick.. I left my computer one day and came back to a nasty surprise once. Just think,if someone died,he/she could be banned for being absent without leave and posthumously banned forever. And you don't want to talk about ignorance and hate????

Quite frankly Steve,I hope Winterrose never tells anyone WHY he was suddenly gone for awhile because it's no one's business. And that I HAVE time today,despite your suggestion that it is in some way you think inappropriate because of the calendar date,is equally no one's business.

Let me make this point perfectly clear therefore:
No matter who it might have been you,Lighhouse or anyone else,who was treated in this way,and with all evidence deleted as to WHY...would absolutely be defended by me and vigorously on ANY day of the year!!!

Lighthouse, am I bullying the bully? I would think he could take it. Perhaps I should not be so abrasive myself, but some things get my hackles up. Remember the old poster that had Fox in his name? He knew a lot about photography but he was a mean and rude poster to nice posters and I made him aware of it. He had no excuse. He was intelligent and I didn't detect any personal problems that could explain his posts. JR is different. He needed a little kindness and all he got was bullied. I apologize if I don't have warm fuzzy feelings for the bullies. If they have any kind of conscience, they need to do some real soul searching. If Graham is such a nice guy (and it's easy to be nice to nice guys, Lighthouse) he will realize that he was in the wrong.
