According to my Inbox, I got a response from her in July of last year, which came near-immediately after Dani attacked me for apparently seeking trouble when I was just coming off one of my many suspensions. She said he "does so in a manner which rubs a few people up the wrong way, but it should be taken as harmless banter."

That same 'box has PMs from Barbie, Nymph, & a few others thanking me & calling me a hero for my responses to posts, which probably since have been removed (MFs & mine, with only me ever being punished).

My advice. if you've contacted the site owner and she's not given you satisfaction, it leaves you with two options. Take over the website and run it how you want it to be run or accept that fact that you're beating your head against an unbreakable wall.

Did that, including proof of my claims, as well as PMs from my site friends who made the same claims. Got suspended/temp-banned for passing along PMs!

Well, then, you seem to have gotten your answer. you could alway PM Nicola, the site owner. I'm sure she'd welcome your grievances and input.

OK. Let me try again & see if I understand how you "work here".

I do nothing wrong, get suspended, come back, have people tell me they missed me/ask where I was, continue to follow the rules, & repeatedly get suspended/temp-banned.

MF repeatedly breaks the rules to the point I get PMs & Friend Requests b/c of my posts about his violations/my responses to his posts to-&/or-about me, continues to do it, gets the violating posts removed, but also gets to continue making the violating posts.

Is it considered work if it's clearly & popularly considered a step backwards?!

Oh, & M-t-r, wasn't saying it was simply due to a disagreement over anything. It was due to your posts (& MFs, & mine) that showed the two of us agreed he was posting things needlessly & against the rules. I thought enforcing the rules was/would be within your authority (also that removing him permanently would be within someone's & they would have proven so by doing it one of the many times it's been deserved due to these repeated violations).

on the red header at the top of the page, there's a question mark icon - if you pass your mouse over it, you can see the 'contact us' option. if you wish to file a complaint, i'd start there.

Yes... Milik the Mod was involved in back-&-forth with MF.... Now, "the Red" should show Felix the long-deserved red of the EXIT sign.

That's not how we work here.

Posts are on-topic & get removed. Members give ideas to improve Forum & whole site (all in one suggestion), Mods make posts showing they agree with suggestion, & yet suggestion gets removed instead of taken.

Nothing members can do about it.

just because they are removed, doesn't mean they aren't read and noted.

Caution is best. It's my experience that it's wise to ask first - all mods seem willing to answer questions of 'is this acceptable'? and they'll look and tell you yes or no.

I can't say i was a huge fan - it has nothing to do with me not liking his music, but i've never seen him, i don't own any cds of his. that said, there is no denying his influence and his innovation. he was constantly reinventing himself - even without knowing a lot of his catalogue, i know a bowie song when i hear it, and i know a lot of his music simply through osmosis. to those of you who are hurting over this, i get it. it's a huge loss, both universally and personally. i hope that you can take solace in his music. as i said, i don't own any of his music, but i just ordered Black Star today. it just seemed like the right thing to do. i'm also a little sad for my uncle, who loved Bowie's music. he told me, earlier, that the first album he ever bought was Station to Station, so i ordered that too. i even know one of the songs on it...

okay, laugh all you want, but the first song i thought of when i heard the new was Modern Love. it made me want to dance.

Really, he touched everyone who was a fan of music.

Why don't they just change the scoring system instead of people bickering about it all the time. You can either keep as is, change to anonymous voting, make it a like or dislike voting system or make it 1-10.

But if you keep it as is this conversation is going to keep going back and forth like a tennis game.

Like I have said, for me I have the same stories all over the internet they are scored much lower elsewhere. Some of my poems have no scores but have nine hundred views. The thing is, where ever I post I have views. The scores are all over the place. Here they are high on another site I write on I get a lot of 8's. Another one I write on I average around a 3.50.

Scoring will always be a very sore topic. Some sites are based on views alone and comments only to be seen by the author.

Lush is a pretty unique place. Like other's have said there is one site where the comments are plain ugly. I received death threats on one of them. I had to remove the comments because they were disgusting.

if we change it to 1-10 people will still bicker *shrugs* we change it to 'like' people will bicker. we take away votes altogether, people will bicker. is what it is.

Of course, we can always agree to disagree.

no we can't. this is war! *gets out the flamethrower*

Be nice to a mod, they're the only people standing between you and a truly bad story. A few of our team members - Rupert, Scooter, and Wolf-boy.

(You're a MOD... They'll listen to you...)

that was meant to be intentionally funny, right? dude, i dropped a couple of tabs about an hour ago and washed them down with several bloody mary's and i'm the soberest mod on duty right now.

Quote by drillsarge2

That feels lame to me... I'm in the business of "assessment" in my vocation...I can't just tell someone they stink at whatever they do without backing up what I'm saying. At least when a comment is given regardless in length, the recipient could say, "Well, I don't agree, but, whatever (shrugs)".

no, not lame. reality. perhaps you might not be able to tell someone they stink without backing it up, but i'd guess you're in the minority.

I don't speak German. Sorry.

Cowards. Give a comment, what didn't you like. I know there are interpersonal issues here just like anywhere else, but one can always hope that we can act our age... My 2 cents worth...

*Shrugs* the other side of that is, you read a story, you think it sucks, you feel like you already wasted 15 minutes of your life and you don't feel like wasting another 2 minutes writing comment when you could simply hit a 2 and go read something worthwhile.

Quote by Magical_felix

I'm probably alone with this feeling... But I used to love my negative comments on that site. Some people are hilarious.

for someone confident with their ability, yeah, i would have to agree, but for people who are still learning how to write, still figuring it out, it can be a morale killer. also, some remarks might hit a bullseye unerringly - not so much an issue for male writers, but perhaps some of the female writers might not take such comments with the same sense of humor.

10 Jan 2016

Quote by Dani

I understand what you're saying. Quality is in the eye of the beholder. I'd argue your point about bad stories making it to the front page, but that's another conversation for another thread.

However, thinking a story is bad is not a slight against the site moderators, and should not be perceived as such. That's the only point I'm arguing.

And if 'negative' feedback is discouraged, why allow it at all via the scoring system?

et tu, brute? i am wounded unto death. pardon me while i remove this knife from my back... ow...

Quote by HotWife4U

My husband just recently posted some of his best stuff on on other site. I was blown away bu the amount of low score and perverse comments. Down right gross. Like: "this is the shittest story I've ever laid my eyes on. I wish you would just crawl under a rock as die." That was one of the nicer comments.

Anyway, he is so sorry he posted there. The community here assists new authors in remarkable ways. I am a no is author but have found tons of support here.

there's a competative site that is known for that - Dancing Doll posted some of her earlier stories there and got called all sorts of names and even threatened - i would rather see inflated scores on stories that we see here then to see our authors treated like that on a regular basis.

10 Jan 2016

everyone is looking for something different. some want something to get themselves off with. some want something deeper. there's thousands of members here and as many tastes - i like to think that, no matter who you are, you can find something that excites your senses.

Quote by Buz
It's real hard to say. the first night I arrived at college I ended up partaking in a 2 girl gangbang (about 8 guys). An eye opening experience. The 2 girls seemed to compete as to which one could be the sluttiest and wildest as they competed to out fuck each other.

I've been in threesomes, sex in public, received blow jobs while driving, played naked Twister; with a crowd watching I've cut circles on the road on my motorcycle only wearing boots and a pair of panties on my head, and more...

reminds me... i want my panties back, please.

NOTHING REAL is right or wrong...

(What you CHOOSE to accept is up to YOU...)

But you know... DEPENDING ON THE TIME, RELATIONSHIPS and CIRCUMSTANCE, things stranger than you might imagine might happen...

(I've woken up in a bed in a bit of a tangle of boy/girl fiasco and everybody's blinked and said, 'oh shit!!!', so what?)

It's JUST CUM!!!

Who REALLY, REALLY fucking CARES!!!

i got cum on my thumb once. i had to scrub it until it bleed and then there were the nightmares. *shudders* it's not just cum. it's EVIL.

I only give 2 people low scores on their 'contributions' because I think they need to know the truth and make more effort. After all someone who is intent on becoming a good author will accept constructive criticism and act accordingly. I will *not* mention names however one cant cook a pizza without incinerating it and the other has a cat called Leo.

Cleo. it's Cleo. and K can cook pizza just fine, if you're into cajun style ;)

If I give you a 1, will you piss on me? I'd really hate it, honest!

well, only if you really hated it - i mean, i'd hate to go to all that trouble and find you enjoyed it... ;)

ONE OF THE ONLY advantages of becoming older is that you can LISTEN to a real, logical, well presented argument and, WHILE INITIALLY DISAGREEING WITH IT, allow yourself, by listening, discussing, BY USING YOUR HEART AND YOUR BRAIN, to be persuaded that, hey, you might be WRONG! Not that I'm saying that ever happened ME!

xx SF

my arguments tend to go like this.

Dissenter: i think you're wrong.

rach: *punches dissenter repeatedly in face*

Dissenter: okay, i am beginning to see your point... mind driving me to the ER now...?

10 Jan 2016

people are way too hung up on scores. that's just an opinion. btw, if any of you fucks give me less than a 6 on my next story, i will come to your house and piss on your rug. thus, have i spoken.
