I'm not even sure what to title this thread; thus, "Words" is the only word I can think of at the time of this writing. I write this with a heavy heart.

I was going to wait until tomorrow morning to create this thread, giving myself a day to think about what to say overnight, being able to pick my words gingerly so as not to offend anyone, but I kind of wanted to get this over with so I don't have to face it in the morning.

I woke up today at 4 a.m., which is when I begin my workday, and I immediately noticed that I had four PMs in my mailbox. It was then, reading several of them, that I discovered that Juice had been banned. Thereafter, I read the multiple threads on the Main Forum about the banning and the outrage that it had caused to members, as well as how my participation on some threads have been offensive, even detrimental to the climate of the environment.

I would be lying if I said that none of what I have read today bothered me, because I've been deeply saddened by it all day long. In fact, it is hurting me pretty badly. I had no idea that I was disliked this much. I know this is not the sentiment of the entire forum, but it seems as if it is the sentiment of the majority of this forum.

I had not asked for Juice to be banned, FWIW. I have read some things written about me today that are not true, but I won't hash them out in this thread. That's not the purpose of me writing here tonight.

I apologize for posting words that have been abrasive to AzBilliards members. I also am sorry for any thread drifts I created in the past. I had only meant to add levity to some threads by adding links to videos, music, and pictures. I was not aware that it was disruptive to the flow of things. I never meant for that to happen.

I hope the moderators allow Juice to return. It would bring good cheer to many who value his forum friendship.

Thank you for reading my thread. I'm not sure what else I can say, but I didn't want to just stop posting and not say something after this recent turn of events. I just wanted to express my thoughts.

I can't think of anything witty to close with, other than to say may all your balls fall in the pockets. Thanks for reading my words.

Oh, and I hope Team USA brings home the Mosconi Cup! :smile:

:) I enjoy your banter and hope you contribute more to this forum.
 
I don't know either one of you although I do recall chatting with you a few times outside at the US Open 9 Ball & you seemed nice enough to me. I did comment on several of the threads to give my opinion on the use of the word you were called. I do have to say I think it takes some courage to come on here after reading all the things that were said about you & address everyone. I also feel it was wrong for Juice's ban to be made permanent just because his friends on here were sticking up for him.

I realize none of this has anything to do with me but I am just stating my opinion. :)

Excellent post Jennie and I truly believe every bit of it...
 
Ms. JAM

I'm sure I'm still a newbie (June 2012) but I doubt that the entirety of all of the posters is even 1/4 of the entire forum when the readers only are included.

I for one, often enjoy the levity of most of your posts. Obviously, since being new, I don not have extensive knowledge of the past.

You have now done the correct thing & it's up to the powers that be to determine the best course.

Keep in mind the percentages of the entire forum.

Regards,
 
I for 1 enjoy your post and hope to read many more. Your not the problem on this forum. This forum reminds me of a pack of wild dogs, it attacks one thing and then another without provocation . A buddy of mine(who is also a valued forum member)texted me today and was outraged at how people where using the forums to challenge MR Wilson on a public poll. Rules are rules and juice broke them badly. If they let it pass then people will know they can get away with it. The last thing this forum needs to do is to lighten up on this sort of thing. I think we need quicker bans for those provoking management and challenging authority on a daily basis
 
ban hammer

I called his banishment first in that thread. He deserved it.No woman should be called that. There is nothing you could do to warrant this treatment.Forget about it.
 
Jennie, you are good people........my advice, don't let the nits on here run you off. Way more would miss reading your posts than not.

Well stated. Perhaps quicker but shorter bans. 1,2,3 srtikes your out.

Here! Here! I second that notion. I always love rooting for our Country the good ol USA, but remember to spell Country with an o.

That is moving and will let Juice know how you actually felt when he was banned. I am sure this will make him feel warm and cozy inside that you are on the site and he is not but you feel bad about it.

Aw, come on ..... you have to know that you're an asset to the forum!!!
There will always be peeps we don't get along with, and there will always
be misinterpretation, miscommunication, and/or abrasive, inflamatory behavior, as well as bullying, piling on, instigating, harassing, demeaning,
and/or just plain stupidity when it comes to posts and posting. But we all knew that when we signed on .... right??!!? :wink:

Bottom line is and always will be....(like Mom said) "if you don't have something nice to say, then don't say it"..... and I'll add to it my own.. "if you still have to say it, think twice before you do, and think again about the words you use". If we could all live by these, this forum and the world in general would be a better place. Best wishes, and happy holidays to you and yours.

Ive said this before and Ill say it again, you (and others here) take this stuff way to seriously.

I know we've had issues before but I promise its only ever been light hearted on my end.

Again , nothing that happens here does or should have any impact on real life. I'm truly sorry when does.

Please don't let it. It's not worth it.

<------------wishes you the best.
 
It's the Internet. Who cares? I can't understand how people feed into drama and take it all so seriously. A big teary farewell? Wtf? Just take a posting break and move on. I cannot imagine being upset and dwelling on what someone posted on an Internet forum. :confused:

That said, I hope you have a good evening, god bless, & try not to get upset over online stuff. Life is far too short to sweat the insignificant.
 
Okay, I admit it. I PM'd JAM last night.

On the other hand it had absolutely nothing to do with the forum!

Freddie <~~~ but it counts
