Hey,
It's good to have you back and know that you are safe. What happened there a while back?? It really had me worried. I would like to know what the trouble was. God Bless you.

Bob gave an acceptable civil format for warning other posters, here:http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20031008/msgs/272987.html
and I hope I'm following it.
Hm ...
Well actually, I'm not sure I *can* follow it to the letter, so I'll quote:
"If your intent is to warn people, what about posting that you were shocked by an email she sent you and you think others should think twice before emailing her? And maybe that they could email you if they wanted more details?"
If you'd like other input, maybe you could post an e-mail address where you could be reached with details, if you wanted them.
à plus tard ...

Dear Oreilledemouche,
I am unsure how to take your last post. Perhaps I am mistaken, but it seems rather offending to me. I am specifically speaking of the end of the letter, I quote you, " à plus tard ..." If by this you meant A+, and "tard" as in short for retard, I do not appreciate that type of attack on my intelligence. I will be reporting this on the administration board.
Respectfully,
Elle

> Dear Oreilledemouche,
Which can loosely be translated as "a fly on the wall", but means literally ear of a fly in French.....
> I am unsure how to take your last post.
It was warning that emailing a particular individual might not be wise.

If you run into such a quandary again, you can use the Google language feature to translate, but be warned, it translates literally.

I can't speak for Mr/Ms Mouche here, nor for his/her intentions, but in French the above is casually used for "see you later", a with that accent = to/until, plus = more, tard = late. Younger types use merely "a plus", or on instant messages, a+, to the horror of linguists of ilks abounding.
> If by this you meant A+, and "tard" as in
> short for retardOh my, I must be immensely naîve. That's truly a vulgar thing to say, I hope it wasn't the poster's intent or purpose.

Elle, I'm sorry you are experienceing the feelings you are. My email is kris_7007 at msn dot com, I'll tell you what really happened. It seems no one has heard my side of the story...
Take care sweetie and hang in there.
I'm here if you want to talk.
Kristen
Oh, by the way, 'à plus tard' just means later,
'Oreilledemouche' was just ending her post by saying 'later' pretty much...

And it might not be wise because?

yes it does, and my side has yet to be told...
I would suggest this go over to Social, Bob will redirect it sooner or later.
Best wishes,

Elle, I mis-read the situation. It looks like you and Krissy will get along just fine.
Viel Spaß miteinander!

Elle, just FYI :-)
Viel Spaß miteinander! is German for 'Much fun with one another!'
Yep, oreilledemouche, I get along with a lot of people just fine.
Best wishes,

Perhaps I was wrong about your first message, apparently the a plus statement was innocent. I apologize. But, the follow up you wrote me was not. You know what you meant by that last post, and it was rather rude. However, I forgive you. God bless you.
