Wait, what? They are offended by a thread with 2 likes and 2 responses from September?
@246baje, you aren't a mean spirited person and I think anyone who has been around any length of time knows that it was just an off the cuff remark and nothing nasty.
awww please do not beat yourself up about this baje, please.
mm has a special little place in my heart but honestly one person ruined it for me, i just had to separate myself from mm for the most part bc it was giving me anxiety going there and seeing that person post and other people continue to humor said person.
i wasnt all that drawn to mmm initially as a board but i love a lot of the posters that were here so it's grown on me lol!!
Take what I have to say with a grain salt because I'm fully aware it's rooted in jealousy, but that post stung.
Which post? The death knell post from September?
I don't think mm vs MMM is a thing. I think baja keeps trying to make it one and I don't understand. I am truly sorry if anyone on MMM ever felt unwelcome or unwanted at MM.
But I don't understand the point of starting multiple threads about it today.

Yea. I probably wouldn't have noticed it if it hadn't been linked, but I do agree with v's initial point.

cue all the "is it me?" responses :-)
Yeah right. It's pretty obviously Bliss. That shit got old quick.
Ok well I don't know what to tell you. I'm not sure what I would be jealous of and if it were rooted in jealousy why would it sting?
Also what was your screenname before?
it was mrschicken (I'm on the computer, it's under her new sn). I thought she was referencing the comment the remaining MMers going to the BNOTB board (like maybe irene adler is dealing with IF? I dunno).
baje, don't feel bad about it. Between the app showing all new posts in one spot so many members participating on lots of boards instead of sticking to just one, bliss, and then this kind of crap, I just don't find MM to be of much interest anymore and it seems that I'm not the only one.

Mrschicken. No need to say anything. The question of having kids has become very complicated because of health issues. Your comment struck a chord with me when I was in a not so awesome place.

I am very sorry to hear of your health struggles. My babies didn't come easily so I understand the not quite charitable feelings when you want children and there are barriers.
That comment was never intended to be a dig at those without children and I am floored that it was perceived that way.
My intent does not invalidate your feelings but I sincerely apologize to you because I would never ever intentionally say something like that.Â
That's very kind of you to say. Thank you.
Again, take it with a grain of salt. Zero hard feelings.

Thanks I appreciate it. I felt like I needed to address it because it was brought up again today.
dude. I'm kind of pissed you apologized at all. Completely unnecessary. As always consider the source.

Dude I'm not trying to make it one. v is the one making mountains out of molehills. I made one post and v referenced it back then.
Then she referenced it today and quoted something I said in the thread back then as proof of animosity.
Didn't you bring it up in the CEP thread?
Listen, I don't want it to be a thing and I don't think its a thing. I really am sorry if you - or anyone else - felt unwanted or unwelcome at MM. I don't believe that was the intention, and I am sorry if it was perceived that way.

Lol, I clicked into the "wtf why is this board so dead" thread and found myself nodding enthusiastically at some of the posts. I went to "like" them...only to find I'd already done so when it was posted in September.
@246baje, I think you're the one making a mountain out of a molehill. Someone in yesterday's post mentioned that she can't remember one instance of alleged animosity towards MM. I posted a thread that I recall in which there was animosity. That's all.
I don't think that makes me chickenshit or that my post was some kind of big deal. I simply pointed to an example. Did I need to tag everyone who had participated in that old thread or something as some kind of warning?

At any rate, this is ridiculous.
I called you chickenshit because you always bring it up and quote my words but don't tag me.
It's a cowardly ass move.
I have brought it up twice I think? I wouldn't call that "always." And I didn't think I needed to tag you because, well, I'm not a huge tagger, period, plus it wasn't just you showing animosity in that thread. I will admit that I am a generally chickenshit person, but also, this wasn't supposed to be some big thing.
(I only tagged you above because you made a big deal about it here)
A thread with 2 replies and 2 likes is pretty weak evidence of animosity from a very active board so bringing that up when it was posted months ago is pretty weird.

When you link a thread that someone started and later on quote their words but not tag them it seems like you're trying to hide something.
And as I said you're calling it animosity etc. it's not even that serious. That's why I think you're making its into this huge thing.
I'm not trying to hide something. I just didn't post that with "I'M GOING TO CALL A BITCH OUT AND START A THROWDOWN" behind it. It was just an example of what was being discussed. It wouldn't even cross my mind to have to tag someone to post that link. Did I break some rule of web etiquette that I was unaware of?
None of this is even that serious or a huge thing. I think you're the one making it a huge thing, by starting this post and stuff?
At any rate, if neither of us thinks that there is anything huge or serious behind this, then maybe we should call the whole thing off?

Deep breaths, everyone. Stop trying to make a board war happen!
