		<description>I love this photo! I haven&#039;t had to much time for SL  this past year but this is a great image. Love it. What this image did was draw me back in to that magical world of creation but I have learned my realistic boundaries &amp; limits. 

Second life is a tool for my creative whatevers.This is great I love it and good job to all who participated in this images creation.</description>

		<description>The reason people have become embittered and hateful is due to the selfishness that was on the rise during the 80&#039;s.

The sad part is, kind and generous acts are met with skepticism and even accusations of ulterior motives.

Hell I got met with that at my job the other day for bringing food and treats. &quot;People who give often like to take as well&quot; Even though I was being generous because I merely wanted to be. (HOLY SHIT A HORRID GRIEFER BEING GENEROUS. MY GOD. believe it.)

Which is why people end up being hateful and bitter towards each other, and become self absorbed as a result, becoming a self-feeding loop of misery.

Though it has one positive aspect, people are seeing bullshit better than in the past to some degree. Though that&#039;s kind of hard to see given that everyone was all over Obama&#039;s cock in 2008. But I digress.</description>

		<description>Thanks Sig for clearing up what Derek suggested were your reasons.

I never needed clarification as I class it as creative licence, your story your decision.

I simply stated what I feel was a shame that Suspiria was not mentioned which is my readers privilege.

If you were to read my first post to this article it is exactly what I still feel.

It is a shame the mention of one person’s name can conjure up the same hatred she is accused of in others. Regardless of all the name calling and finger pointing that is thrown out, which I care little about, she did put a lot of time and effort into this event.

It is still a great article.

Thank you for the clarification. As usual, Occam was correct. as I had suspected.
I don&#039;t think any sessions will be needed, but if you wish to set up a few appointments I am willing to listen.</description>

For what it&#039;s worth, the omission of Suspiria&#039;s name from the article was for no more a mundane reason than I had more quotes and names than I could include without making it a much longer piece. For the Herald, I typically target 1000 words of copy, and this one actually goes to 1100. So inevitably, I end up spiking a fair number of quotes and sentences from my original notes in order to hit my target. There are other folks who gave me comments and who were also key to the Hippiestock event but I also omitted some of those too. Unless there was some subconscious process affecting my self-editing - and I&#039;m certainly open to any discussion on psychoanalytical interpretations of my writing - the names and quotes I used are more the result of time and editing than any political motivations.

An article on the people and rhetoric of the Second Life Forums may indeed be a possibility, but this was not intended to be that. My hope would be more that readers on the Herald might go straight to the source and check out the Forums to get a first-hand experience of the interactions and personalities that exist there. Yes, the Forums as a &quot;live experience&quot; are offline until March 2nd but the read-only offerings are still worth digging into!</description>

I do believe Sig is capable of speaking for himself so that parts just a waste.

In so far as lunch is concerned,  your direction as to when and if I go back to work is far from necessary or required.

But these are the little barbs I speak of, so I have wasted enough time with you.

Cheers</description>

Perhaps it hasn&#039;t occurred to her or you that Sig did indeed omit her from the piece by design as he knew that her inclusion would be a lightning rod, or in his mind divined the real reasons and did not want to give credit where he felt it was disingenuously motivated. 
Or maybe he is *that* incompetent a journalist.
Only he can say. 

In that regard, if it was deliberate perhaps she should have taken that as an opportunity for reflection and derived some insight as to the reasons why, rather than drawing attention to herself in the manner she has.

Thank you for the warm wishes, I hope you enjoy yours too.

Now, lunch is over, get back to work!</description>

		<description>I noticed even old bugger Pep tried his attempt to water down what others found good.

To bad the old bladder on him doesn&#039;t hold enough urine to do the trick or maybe the nappy got in the way.

You keep looking down your nose Pep and you’re going to run into a wall.

Can’t wait to hear your comment about the numbers in my name as an attempted put down.

You can stand by whatever and where ever you wish and I don&#039;t recall implying anything different.

Two things do come to light with your post above. 

One. Being the mention of her name in any post in any forum requires your immediate attention, doesn&#039;t say much for you either.

Two. Being that you find it necessary to tell me to take my head out of my ass and see your point of view. 

I would suggest that just maybe you should come up for some fresh air yourself. Not everyone gives a damn about your smear campaign so motor on in your hate and enjoy your day.</description>

Ibid:

&quot;...petty crap...&quot;

I am sure the individual who was the victim of her vociferous and slanderous campaign to smear their business and character do not consider it so, as they try to defend themselves from her attack. Neither do those of us who witnessed her (and another&#039;s) egregious,  reprehensible behaviour in the last days of the GD specifically,  as well as on countless other occasions against anyone else who dared to draw attention to her despicable nonsense.

Had she acknowledged that she had in fact been in error in her assumptions, and that it was a flaw on the part LL when posting her &quot;evidence&quot; of the screenshot of  the individual&#039;s Marketplace store, that showed child Avs and nude adult Avs on the same page,  showed *one ounce* of contrition, as opposed to redoubling her efforts to delete the evidence and &quot;shop&quot; the screen shot to cover her mistake, while implying he was promoting pedophilia, and then to continue even *to this very day* by calling the person a &quot;smut peddlar&quot;, perhaps her motivations might be perceived in a more altruistic light.

But no, she is too much the LL fanboi to ever attribute responsibility to them.
 
However, I am not so obtuse that I do not understand the motivation behind this personality, as evidenced by the way she conducts herself in light of her perceived slight of omission, by creating a blog in rebuttal to this write up and Proks blog. As well as her belligerence on the Offworld forum  Her motivation was the glorification of her own ego, period..

I suggest dq you extract your head from your anus as anoxia seems to be taking its toll.

I stand by my original remarks, now conveniently sanitized from the GD.</description>
