One More Time for the Cheap Seats.

[amyurban]

Well Ruffian, Bella is not the one who made this board or runs it babe. She is ONLY a mod and is running it the way Lindsey pretty much said she wanted a 13+ board to be run.

When Lindsey comes back, ask her AGAIN about an 18+ board ( since I know this was brought up before, I remember seeing it ). But Bella, herself, cannot grant us that, nor can Nerka since it is NOT their board to do so, ya know what I'm saying?

And I see Jay's point...I got PMed by a few of the "younger one's" (and no, I am NOT going to mention names), about being uncomfortable about the "adult stuff" going on. They should have their say, since it IS still a PG-13 board.

Believe me, I am FAR from being a PRUDE! I write NC-17 fanfics and this is the ONLY board I come to that is PG-13 because it is the ONLY Apolo board, basically ( I really don't care for the "Simply Apolo" one because they kiss his hiny so badly, you can still see the lip marks 2 weeks later). Not that I'd ever BADMOUTH Apolo, mind you, but I think you know what I meant when I said THAT didn't ya? LOL!

When I am on my 18+ boards, believe me, I can get pretty wild AND pretty raunchy. I'm entitled. I'm a crazy old married broad!

[Ruffian of Old]

My god...you're right CKT...

KITTENS CAN LEAD TO PORN!

I'm befuddled.

[ckt]

I think I'm just sick....

...I need help....

...sorry kids.

[Ruffian of Old]

That's what I'm talkin' about Amy! Get loose, lady, 'cause dammit you earned it.

I directed this to Bella because I see a distinct difference in the way Bella and Nerka mod, that's all. And Lindsey may have called people out for being too raunchy or off-topic, but I've never seen it. Lindsey's always been like one of the "regulars" from what I've seen. Not moddy at all.

[amyurban]

Lindsey is NEVER HERE, that is the problem. And, let's just say that what she tells someone to do and what she wants done is sometimes not one and the same...don't ask me HOW I know that, by the way...a "little birdie" told me....

[amyurban]

Well, if we had an 18+ board, then I could put my fics in it so all of you could read them if you wanted to. Mind you, the one I am writing now is the ONLY Apolo one I've written ( Karl Urban has a SHRINE OF SMUT I've written about him housed at a friend's "Urban Reveries" fanfic page, not just MY fics are there, but TONS written about him by SEVERAL of us smut perveyors ).

But hey, since I've gotten very positive reviews from Apolo and non-Apolo fanciers I know of, I will probably write MANY more, now that I've taken the plunge, so to speak....

[torinogal]

I agree with Amy. We have to be respectful of the kids amongst us for now. But we can find a way to be raunchy at the same time, right? Simplyapolo is AWFUL. The people posting are downright nasty to each other, they don't "talk" like we do. We need to go for Lindsey when she comes back.

Apolo obviously attracts older women! NOT teenie boppers (my appologies to the teenagers-I think you're out-numbered here girls) Still love you though, I'm just soooo glad I'm not a teenager anymore. ;D

[torinogal]

I'm sorry!!! Was that disrespectful? I hated my teen years! My appologies ladies, I hated my teen years.

[Bella]

Ruffian, I am so hurt that you were bad mouthing me in PMs to other people behind my back.

Thank you for telling me and coming out in the open with your real feelings and an apology. Apology accepted. I understand your frustration, I wasn't trying to single you out and I'd like to respond to you maybe tomorrow when I'm less upset.

**Bella crying**

OMG! I can't believe I'm this upset!

Talk to you all later.

[Ruffian of Old]

I want to be respectful to the kids. I'm the last person you'd ever suspect of corrupting kids, lol.

I think the best way to be successful at being respectful (wait...does that rhyme or am I really drunk, lol?) is to separate the adult conversation entirely.

And also, am I the ONLY one who had no idea about a Simply Apolo board? I'm so out of the loop!

[Ruffian of Old]

Bella.

I'm so, so sorry.

I just wanted to come clean. I just said what I said here. How I frustrated and how I thought you changed. I wish I had done this in the first place. I'm really, really sorry and hope you can forgive me because I love almost every contribution to this board (guest, I stand by my "YOU SUCK" statement) and yours is most valued.

Gah. I shouldn't post when I'm like this.

[jay]

i know that the oldies(can i say that?) are outnumbered the teens here....nothing to be argue about

[ckt]

I didnt know there was a simply apolo board either, ruff... then again, I only visit that site weekly b/c of the few updated.

And Bella, we all know you are just doing your job to protect the younger ones on this site... us "adults" are just the rebellious kids who want to push the boundaries, and sometimes we go too far. Sorry.

I dont think you're mean. You're just protective, and rightfully so. Feel free to shut me up if I am corrupting young minds.

[Bella]

It's alright, Ruffian. I understand. I just can't respond right now, that's all.

[amyurban]

Ruffian, you were JUST being honest.

And Bella...we all love ya gal. And no, I never said anything bad because I have been a mod on boards before and am a mod on one, now ( granted they are 18+ one's ) but sometimes it IS a thankless job.

C'mon, it's okay to voice if you are frustrated OR if you think some posts have gotten off course. I mean, I guess if we do this from time to time, it will keep people from "blowing up" on one another or fighting, etc. Who knows, maybe I'm wrong. But hey, I can't see how a little honesty can hurt. Ruff, you should at least feel better that you are NOT talking behind her back anymore.
