MODERATOR

I think the language in post no. #86754 is unacceptable. The poster should be banned from the site.

Re: MODERATOR - NOTARY ROTARY CREW, please remove

the language in 86754 which is very offensive.

If M. can get a post removed because they don't like their fees discussed, I know you will also respond to a board full of my "sisters" who really deserve better than to be exposed to this. We don't want this kind of female-suggestive language used at all on the board and we certainly do not want to see it so vulgarly used in a sexist and classless way.

I realize our participation is voluntary and that you do not owe us anything where the board is concerned. I realize you do not have to moderate or fix this post. However, please do it for the ladies here even though you are super busy and have been unable to respond to some posters (apparently) recently...we would count it a kindness.

Traci/Harry, I do enjoy NotaryRotary's forum. But even the addict in me will sober up rather than running across this kind of trash .

I do not mean to be on a soapbox but I realize you have really been spread thin and I am trying to be a squeaky wheel.

SQUEEEEEEEEAK!!!!

I agree......and that type of language on a public forum is offensive to all of us. It certainly does not help the posters already tarnished reputation..... some people dont know when to be quiet.

More Than a Tad Bit of Hyprocrisy...

...on your part, Brenda. I've seen worse things from the keyboard of one of your "friends" you've defended on this board many times over & you've never posted one single objection to THAT person's vulgarity. Never! It appears selective enforcement is your mantra in this case...whatever offends you & your female sensibilities. Whether it's sexist or not shouldn't be the determinant when it comes to gutter language on NotRot. What's good for the goose should be good for the gander & either it should ALL be censored by Harry or the current free-for-all should continue unabated.

BTW, I've objected to Harry on a couple of occasions concerning the rampant use of four letter vocabulary on his board & how it detracts from the overall professionalism of his site. It's fallen on deaf ears...as I'm certain this will. I've stated my druthers & suggestions as to how all these problems should be addressed, but they've been discounted as well. There's only one way I know of to eliminate this & all the other trash that appears out of nowhere. You tie a person's post to their public profile. If you desire the benefit of having your name & business out there for advertising purposes, then you also should be willing to stand behind your words with your profile when posting on the message board. Then again it's also Harry's site & he can do with it as he pleases.

Re: More Than a Tad Bit of Hyprocrisy...

Dennis, what is your obsession about seeing the profiles of the people who post on this board? You really need to start singing a new song because that one has turned into the Macarena - tired and annoying. You seem to frequent the GMN board more than this one, and that one doesn't even have profiles to link to the messages. If it's good enough for you over there, it should be good enough for you over here.

Maybe if somebody started using your business email address on the Free Daily Porn sites you might begin to develop an understanding of why not everybody wants their information out there, and it has nothing to do with being unwilling to stand behind our words.

Re: More Than a Tad Bit of Hyprocrisy...

Dennis, This apparently started back in November of 2004 when I saw humor in CaliNotary's post #11480. You have told me I offended you. I apologized and told you it was not my intention.

You have been angry at me since then and have not been able to get passed that I think the man has a good sense of humor. It was not about YOU Dennis. It was about him...about his ability to spin a yarn with visual imagery. It would not have mattered who it was that the story was developed about, I thought it was funny and that is my privilege and it does not, as you may think, patently reflect on a flaw in my character because I think that a man yhou see yourself as morally superior to (by the tone you take) has a good sense of humor even if I do not agree in total with the scenario.

Get over it, Dennis. And, I say get over it, because there is obviously something there for you to get over. You can squalk all you want to about my friendships, but you no longer have credibility since the attack on Bob, and now, today it is to call me a hypocrite so you can manipulate the thread into your favorite subject to hate: CaliNotary.

I like CaliNotary and he is very nice to me without asking me for anything or expecting one thing from our friendship. He does not try to turn me against YOU for sure and he does not chastise me for not meeting HIS standards, I am fond of him and I am grateful that he seems to have a fondness for me. All this goes for Bob as well. Ditto for Bob of Chicago. I love my Bob!!!!! It is amazing how little kindnesses from other people mean a great deal in this world and these two people have been very kind to me and you have not.

Now, as to hypocrisy:

I am a subjective being who does, in fact, like some people more than others. I am not bound by a communistic set of rules on this forum as far as I know--I come here to visit, network, debate and learn. I am not here to please you, by the way.

It is not my intention to be a hypocrite, but I will not discount your claim without due consideration that you might have valid points. At any given time I might operate on emotion by how something strikes me at the moment. I will continue to enjoy my time here and to operate as a human and not a communist regime who is perfectly controlled at all times and prepared to operate only by intellect. I will continue to be at ease here and not worried about your scoldings.

In other words, in my opinion, it is not incumbent upon me (as a NotRot poster) to treat every person perfectly and exactly the same, though that would be a worthwhile endeavor and I do not discount the value in that...but to assume that I need to elevate myself to some kind of superior status like a kind and benevolent referee is not working for me. I am a friend here among other friends.

If CaliNotary has posted the P-word, I wish he wouldn't have but for whatever reason, if he has it did not strike me like the post we are referring to.

Whatever the case, Dennis, if that makes me a hypocrite, I am ready to accept that position in your eyes and all others who see me that way. Feel free to assign any other ugly labels to my character. As bizarre as this may seem to you, I am not in this world to please you, or to be judged by you. I am very comfortable in my own skin and I am at peace in my soul and with my world.

My only regret is that our inability to exist on this board in peace and with acceptance of our differences. It is shameful. I got into the mud with you. The above statements were our mud wrestle. It's over and that's all I have to say to you.

Re: I disagree

that linking a profile to a message is going to stop people from posting offensive, vulgar or flaming posts. Everyone responds to things differently, especially in the cyber world. We can't see facial expressions and interpret words differently. Linking a profile is not going to make it "ok." I used to always link my profile but made the decision not to do so for the benefit of other posters who, when they didn't agree with something I said, would click my link and send me hate e-mails. IMO, my profile is for the use of SSs and TCs.

I do think that Harry should remove the Anonymous handle and make people pick ONE alias.

As some of you know, at times I open up my email and there it is...

Perhaps like CaliNotary has been accused of, I have become a legend in my own mind. I just don't what is so bad about that as long as I do not take myself toooo seriously...that'll get me in trouble every time.

I have also used the "contact us" section of the site to contact someone to get this individual banned from the site. Obviously, his language on this site to me has caused me to doubt his credibility, and I do not have to hear his side of the "story" to believe that he also conducts his business in a totally unprofessional manner.

Re: wheres Carolyn now?

Just came on and missed the deleted post, so am not sure what was said, however it appeared Carolyn was just saying that we needed to hear all sides of the story, not just his, not just Mobile Docs, before coming to a conclusion. That was my take on it. Carolyn is a fair person, and basically didn't jump to the conclusion that automatically the SS was right.

Re: Cali-Thanks for the update!

Eh, I never really believed that he got a lawyer anyway. And if he did talk to somebody, I'm sure it was some ambulance chaser who advertises on the backs of buses.

Either way, I think it's pretty safe to say that he no longer has a case for Mobile Docs damaging his reputation. It's like the old saying goes, if you want something done correctly, you have to do it yourself.

Mission accomplished Keith.

Re: Kristy

I WASN'T defending *ANYONE* -- I originally said this was between Keith and MobilDocs -- and I still believe if MobilDocs had not printed the full name in the first place, this would never have gotten so out-of-hand.

I've worked for enough attorneys for over 20 years that I don't jump to conclusions, nor do I believe everything that I read, especially on NotRot or any other forum for that matter, and I don't believe everything that I hear. And the reason that I posted that I choose to not sign for a particular person and his SS is because this is not the first time that I have not agreed with his business ethics and I have posted the same in the past.

Re: Kristy - P.S.

I just went back and re-read my Frustrated comments and Keiths Case comments. I suggest that you also go back and re-read my comments because no where have I said that I was defending Keith.

Actually, with your own potty mouth, if I were you, I really wouldn't be writing posts prompting people to read the threads to see if I was defending Ketih, because by doing so, ultimately will only bring attention to your own ignorant vocabulary.

This is supposed to be a site for professionals. What if a new (or existing) title co., or signing company came onto the site to find a notary, and saw that post in the meanwhile? They may take it as unprofessional and move on to a site where we are not members of. This very well could cost us business. Kieth is unprofessional and must be banned from the site, and his profile deleted, for all our sakes.
