In reply to the discussion: Goodbye updated [View all]Number23
(24,544 posts)200. Polly, I don't care about what ever you're all bent out of shape over.
I truly don't.
And this thread become about me when you decided to AVENGE(!!!!) someone's honor that you think I had the audacity to besmirch even though the only identifier I gave was that this person had over FIVE THOUSAND POSTS in one forum in 90 days. The fact that you seem to so quickly know who I was referring to and felt the need to immediately rush to their defense doesn't do anything but show you must see the problem too.
