In reply to Dr Bob asks that deputies step away from vortices, posted by Dinah on February 25, 2009, at 9:47:50

I don't think a vortex is a positive term to describe this thread. I really believe that the intent from everyone especially twinleaf, is to make this place better.> It's a shame he's unwilling to step forward when at his request as well as our own good judgment we step back. Over and over again he supports us off board and promises to show that support on board.
I agree, and this has happened time and time again. It is not fair for the deputies to have to carry "His" load or a load that is way too heavy for only a few deputies.

> I care about Dr. Bob, and I care about Babble, and about the only reason I would quit is if I thought the majority of Babblers believed what was written about me in this thread.I just wanted to say, I know you feel this way, but if this thread gets bogged down with support for you (which would be fine in another thread) the message that this thread started with will be lost. I don't believe anyone has asked you to quit or anything like that.
Because in that case, the last nearly eight years of my life when I have tried to forge relationships and be of service here would have been an utter waste of my time and pain.
This reminds me of what my first T told me once (he did have SOME good after all) about marriage. All marriages end badly, whether through death or divorce. But you can't judge the quality of the marriage based on the last months alone. The end doesn't have to flavor the entire relationship one way or another.
I am sure nobody is asking you to quit, most people love you here. My part is that there shouldn't be rules, if they can't be applied at a more consistent manner. Does that make sense?
