44. I will publicly offer an apology to you

And promptly put you back on ignore. Not because we do not have a lot in common, but because I fear there will be more misunderstandings in the future. And I hate to hurt people, I really do. So I will lead by example and put you on ignore to avoid any further misunderstandings.

Good luck in any future endeavors you engage in. I do not want you to think I have any interest in cyber stalking or hurting your feelings.

I just wish the people who engage in that activity would just put me on ignore. Last night, out of disgust with this site, I removed a bunch of posts I made on the Crimean situation, which were news clips, and a comment on CNN covering what I consider a non news item in the middle of a crisis.

I will continue to recuse myself from this site.

But seriously good luck and my sincere apologies.

Fair enough you didn't say bully. But she gets bullied. hrmjustin Mar 2014 #101

As many of us do. Even here on DU. She is not exceptional in that. n/t Isoldeblue Mar 2014 #103

Some have made it their mission to give her a hard time. hrmjustin Mar 2014 #104

And she invites much of it B2G Mar 2014 #56

No she does not. hrmjustin Mar 2014 #57

You want to know what got me on her "iggy" list? tammywammy Mar 2014 #67

While we all have our faults and she admits hers people here, I am not saying you, hrmjustin Mar 2014 #71

I have never seen Nadine admit fault tammywammy Mar 2014 #76
