Now that the remarkable fellow who made this forum necessary has departed, we could let it fade away... Or we could use it now and then for expressing ideas and opinions some TDers might find offensive, arrogant, ignorant, or confrontational, though others might see them as offbeat, insightful, or merely harmless. In other words, this could be a place for posting anything that might have the EFFECT of an acrimonious rant, even when that isn't author's main INTENT. |

...which is not to say those suggestions wouldn't be welcome here. |

Is that person officially gone? |

So it seems. It looked like that was his decision, with his last few hours of spewing the ugliest idiocy he could offer. |

I thought maybe he was just taking a day off. At any rate, I asked our hosts to remove my remarks from the time this ruckus began and poof, they disappeared. All that is left is my profile pic and the announcement that my remarks have removed due to the request of the users. I was hoping my pic would disappear, too. I don't know if that was the right thing to do, or not. Now it is left up to future readers imagination what instigated the ensuing dialogue and the need for an acrimonious rant thread. I guess it's too late to change my mind now. |

There are still some comments Radrook made that should be removed He left quite a few obscene ones on sandm's pictures. And I believe there are more on some of his threads. |

One can email our TD hosts by clicking Feedback and requesting the comments to be removed. |

Hi Hazer... I'll miss those remarks you made. There's an acute shortage of quiet wisdom these days. Make some new remarks soon please. |

Common sense is not so common, and knowledge and wisdom do not necessarily go hand in hand, I've found. |

I was wondering if "he who shall not be named" can come back with another name, or if he has been banned, is his computer banned from signing in again? He didn't target me, but I know they were an unpleasant few weeks for several people. I think all those targeted handled the unpleasantness with grace and character. Kudos to you and to Think Draw for stepping in when asked. |

I did not keep up with all of what was going on, I was drawing pictures, but I could feel the tension and I read enough comments to know something was up. I did not understand a great deal of what was said. This made me sad and damaged what has become my happy place. You have all brought me so much comfort in the last year or so. Every comment is like a letter from a friend, a message, a wink. Every picture is a small connection between friends that have never met. I am sorry there was something from outside that seemed ugly that distracted us from the beauty that is usually here. |

Hello trying, That is so very well put..beautifully said. |
||

Yes, thanks to you, trying. Sometimes the best way to "just say no" is a resounding silence, I find. (Not the easiest response for me, considering my own tendency to verbosity!) |

mdawrcn, I had a similar thought ... not 'could he come back' but 'had he been here before in a different guise'. It followed the pattern of similar carryings on a couple of years ago. I regretted my remark as soon as I'd made it ... 'would have been far better to make a joke and (hopefully) take some of the anger out of the situation. |

Login, I am glad you said what you said, when you said it. I, like trying wasn't really following everything that was being said, and wasn't sure I was interpreting the situation correctly. Your brief, succinct comment confirmed it and summed it up brilliantly for me, because you are always so level headed it seems, I didn't think you would be mistaken. Thanks. |

Thanks for making me feel a little less contrite ... but "always level headed" ... oh, if only! |

In real life I can't even draw a straight line - then I found a place where I, in my mind, PAINT like a pro! and I enjoy every moment of it!! Thankx for the compliments and if I add something to the galleries "My cup runneth over!" |

TD is such a wonderful, peaceful and creative site of growing friendships and art that it is so sad the unnamed & unstable could not see the real beauty here and approach in a proper manner! |
