I agree with most everyone voting to ban Amanda.

We seem to have a rash of posts were people are writing and not thinking about what the message is they are conveying. Only after they post is when the realization of a stupid, if not absolute, wrong post sets in. This, in all honesty, is poor posting and very bad judgment.

As an Air Force Instructor we are taught to be careful with what we say because if we teach the lesson wrong first time this is what most people are going to remember. It is very hard to go back and correct what you just taught in error. If you commit this type of error, how are the students going to be able trust you with the rest of the lessons or the entire course?

Please for many of the new people to this board and to posting on Message Boards period, learn the lessons of Corona Grande, TheycallmeManix, and Amanda. Read what you want to post before you post it, USE SPELLCHECK,, and make sure the message you really want to convey is clear and precise. Because that post is the one that people are going to read and make their decisions from and not the ones that your apologies will be on later.

How about ppl just worry about cigars. And not the circus environment ppl like to create on here. This place would be much more enjoyable.

buy my vote, show Rick James your titties.

**Baron Porthos** · 09-26-2005, 06:36 PM

I would like to hear from ggeise and how he thinks we should proceed. Certainly I understand if he wouldn't take another moment out of his life to address anything to do with her.

I'm very confused about this whole issue - this caught me totally off guard. I'd just like to say this...

I can't imagine anyone would not know how I feel... What most may not know is I feel Amanda has some serious issues that need not be addressed on this board. She needs to work them out away from here with some type of counseling. This is pretty serious in my estimation, especially if she plans on teaching for a living. Certainly, I can't believe or imagine Amanda would make those comments face to face with me or any other law enforcement officer - that is the sign of a true sociopath. Further, I can't believe or imagine Amanda would make those comments on a public board. Those comments have no business in any public forum - spoken or written.

Amanda - I'm not really clear if you're apologizing because you made the comment and feel foolish - or you now feel remorse for making such an inflammatory comment. It's really not clear to me, but it seems as though you're not happy about being so embarassed. I see you've been a bit more concillatory with Hex than me, so I'm a bit confused about that... I really don't need an apology to move on - I can live well either way. I mostly feel sorry for you, Amanda - but I'm not sure if I should feel sorry for you making a foolish mistake, or feeling sorry for seeing someone who seems pretty intelligent not truly understanding the gravity of the post..

Alex - I'm not sure what you're trying to say in your comments... Do you condone what Amanda said and upset because it has turned into a circus. Or are you saying it's was a circus that lead to the comments... Knowing you, I'd have thought you'd be a little more offended by what was written... The thoughts of people who I consider friends concern me more than those who I don't know.

bigpoppapuff · 09-26-2005, 08:45 PM

george...you obviously know how i feel about the post....i say a prayer each night for my sons' safety...i include all LE in my thoughts....
....answering a phone call during the early hours scares the piss out of me......i've never seen a post like that.....and no apology can be accepted by me....you've got my number if you need to talk.......and as they say...be safe..

**Bkcloud114** · 09-26-2005, 10:03 PM

As a fellow LEO.... I say BAN this bitch........

IMHO she has not added anything positive to this BB in regards to the hobby we all share,,,, cigar smoking

Screw her and her apology...... go discuss your political BS on another BB.........

Try saying those things to a LEO's face..... speaking like that, you are the same as the pieces of shit we arrest everyday..... and I would have no problem punching you in the mouth....

CYA biatch !!!!!!!

Wondering how people feel about you now ?

GO GET A LIFE

bigpoppapuff · 09-26-2005, 10:07 PM

go away bitch...nobody likes you....

Amanda · 09-26-2005, 10:10 PM

ggiese, I wrote a specific apology to you in the "Kinky" thread. Perhaps you didn't see it. Again, I'm very sorry for everything that post implied and have felt sick about it much of today. I apologized to Hex specifically in this thread because it was his thread on his board.

**godfather** · 09-26-2005, 10:30 PM

Man cigarsmokers is running unusually slower tonight. Oh I know why, it's because Amanda is continuing to post polluting this board and wasting precious bandwith and diskspace.

Go see hex's policy on banning he just posted, you're done. It's only a matter of time before we all get the pleasure of seeing 'Banned' as your title and this thread being locked.

Ah, you are correct Lopaka, I was wrong, she did apologize to the entire board for her outburst against ggiese. Thanks for picking that up.

She never did apologize to me for the repeated abuse she threw my way because I think she still believes she was completely justified with that repeated nasty-assed assault when she was so proud of herself when she thought she was "putting me in my place"

. It might be nice if she'd recognize that she was also completely out of line with regard to that but I highly doubt she ever will. If she did, I'd certainlly apologize to her as well and we could both feel a little better about this whole mess but the ball's in her court on that one.....

**Cohibanut** · 09-27-2005, 06:43 AM

Isn't all this getting slightly out of control???

People firing all guns at fellow Botls on different threads? It's all a bit too "Lord of the Flies-ish" don't you think? Jesus!

And when I read some of the comments made by some people on this board in reply to Amanda's post, I can only think that it will be just a matter of time for them to be on the other side of the firing line for a "faux pas" in the not too distant future. The levels of insults, venom and repressed anger is simply frightening.

Come on, I'm not saying we should all love each other and hug at the end of each post (perhaps with little

and

s ?) but can't we try and bring the board to its primary aim: ie: to discuss cigars?

My view is some people actually relish this arguing like pigs in shit. Come on, everybody, let's chill out. If we truly are a community then we should all try and make this work. Don't forget that posting stuff is cold and impersonal. I'm certain that, had we all been chatting in a bar with a nice drink and a good cigar, neither Amanda nor Ggiese would have taken this argument this far.

Now, Amanda has indeed apologised. We ALL make mistakes. Yes. All of us have at some point said something, somewhere, sometime we wished to God we'd never said. Give her a chance.

Come on guys.....

**Leebo** · 09-27-2005, 07:39 AM

Are there therapists in Iowa??

bigpoppapuff · 09-27-2005, 08:09 AM

cohibanut...you must be kidding......she wished death on someone.......if you agree with what she said...you're setting yourself up for some hurt.....she can apologize all she wants...i won't accept it....

**Baron Porthos** · 09-27-2005, 08:24 AM

Ban her and get back to cigars. I have some burning issues I need to discuss and not with a therapist from Iowa. Amanda says she wants to work with kids. Well I have for the last 21 years in Residential Treatment Centers. We call them emotionally disturbed. Your postings seem very familiar to me. The hurt feelings, retaliation, power struggle, violent fantasy the combination is self-destructive. Get help we all need it from time to time.
