Uh, Star...It doesn't look like JT is in fact banned...merely MST Syndicate wise, returned to the level that is the same as everyone elses...JT still has control over his forum and Jim's movin' the MST Syndicate somewhere else. Done, no more problems there.

I know that. Jim has no power to ban J.T. here; this is J.T.'s forum alone. I was talking about Jim kicking J.T. out of the Syndicate itself.

As for moving the MST Syndicate... Where is it now, to be moved? Unless I'm mistaken, it's in limbo at the moment, waiting to be re-formed. Now, are you talking about the site or the orginization itself? I'm a bit unclear as to which you mean.

Star, I would see this post as an emission of pent up anger and stress...I mean, EXTREME…

Yes, I was not in full control when I wrote that post... Something that I dearly regret. And I continually apologize for that... Gomen nasai...

and it’s directed at Jim. And that is where lies the problem, if Jim jumps on JT for stuff, would you think it is fair to do so to Jim. In a sense, he gets what he deserves, but in another, which is the one I normally “see” you in, says you should be sayin’ what I am now, but in your own words. Sure ya backed up all that you said, but is yelling at Jim any better than Jim yelling at JT? I doubt it very much. You’re usually the calm mediator here.

Yes, I am usually the mediator here, but sometimes, I get sick of it all. I get sick of the fights, I get sick of it all. That's when I occasionally lose it, and make a post like that. I should not have yelled at Jim, but I stand by some of what I said. Both Jim and J.T. need to sit down and work this out in a mature, adult fashion, and come to a mutually agreeable settlement.

I’m sorry, but I’m mainly gonna be on Jim’s new board. I’ll check this one now and then, but I follow the Syndicate. You all know I dislike the way JT runs this board, but I stuck with it ‘cause it was the only one I knew everyone would be at. But now that Jim’s started bringing it all back together again, I finally have somewhere else to go, where I don’t have to worry about someone tossing my posts out the window ‘cause the admin. Doesn’t agree with it.

Well, if Jim follows my suggestion that I made to him earlier today, you shouldn't have to worry about that. (That being "where I don’t have to worry about someone tossing my posts out the window ‘cause the admin doesn’t agree with it") However, I don't know what's really going on, so... *shrugs*

I think I understand what Jim is trying to do. I’m gonna stay behind him on this. He’s done here, so I see no more of a problem. The site is supposed to be up soon and then it all goes back to normal. JT is still part of the Syndicate, still admin. of his board, and Jim has his board.

...Which is never used. I never truly saw the point of it...

We get our place to post, we get, now, two places to talk and we stand once again as equals, the arguments return to Socratic, fights return to a minimum, and again the Calm returns. The problem being that it will all arise again, eventually. And that’s why there will be no stop in fights, anger, and bans/flames/insults/demotions/etc. It’s part of human nature…the power…the arrogance…the self-mindedness…not much we can do, but cope and control to our best ability.

That's the thing... I only hope that we can go back to the semi-normality that passes for it around here. What I got out of Jim's post was that he had just kicked J.T. out of the Syndicate, which I thought was something of overkill. *shrugs* Time shall tell, as it always does...

Don't worry, your point got through. You may have a tendency to ramble, but so does everyone else who posts here. Now, if I can only remember never to let my temper get the better of me again, we can all forget this happened and go on our merry ways...
