Somebody thinks I should introduce myself

    I have never been a Jehovahs Witness (I can't even spell it half the time). I am a practicing Wiccan and have been for all of my life. I do not discuss my beliefs openly because of preconceived ideas that most people have. I came onto this site because a nephew had recently decided that becoming a JW was the avenue he wanted to take and I am seeing what it's all about. In fact, there are several sites that I frequent. I have gone through the forum and read A LOT of posts, old and new. I'm trying to see what it was that led you to the Jehovah Witnesses and what made you leave the Jehovahs and what my sister can expect her son to do whether he stays in or gets out

    Now...on to the fun stuff.....It has been brought to my attention that somebody on the forum, a long standing member, feels I am stalking him. He has based this idea on the fact that I have only made 3 posts and two of them (NOT 3) were directed at him. (I really think that the beefstick comment was funny, he kind of opened the door for that one) I would also like to say that no, I am NOT your ex-wife, daughter or an old hired girlfriend. I have been happily married to the same man for 23 years and have no desire to meet you.

    AND I forgive this person for calling me a Troll!

    Blessed Be!

    so then, honestly, why did you barrel on the board and make two rude insulting comments, PLUS call Jim's lovely stories "long drawn out and boring?" And this, before ever even introducing yourself?

    Not impressed with your "apology."

    How generous !!

    Somebody sounds a little too excited about having a private party with a beefstick.

    You're such a sqaure!
    Does anyone else think Jim_TX's stories are drawn out and boring? What's with words like youse, wuz, iffn, folks, gal?

    Sorry, I had to say it.

    Possible they forgive you as wel

    Well, Bethany the comments toward Jim weren't funny even if you think so. I know that I have an odd sense of humor and I think there have been a couple of times I've offended a couple people here on the forum so I'll give you the benefit of a doubt BUT the apology sounds kind of sucky...as others have stated.

    I don't know Jim personally but I've read plenty of post from him and I really think, considering the posts you made and that he was singled out, that your apology needs to be a bit more sincere rather than the "i'm only doing this because I'm told to and the posts were funny" type. It might also help others on this board to accept you if you not only sounded sincere but actually explained more as to why you're here....it also might help if you changed the comments on your ID....they're leaning towards insulting (again you're tending to single out one member of this forum and it's not fair)

    First off....for those who said Welcome...thank you.

    Secondly......my post wasn't an apology. And like I told Jim_TX....the square comment wasn't directed at him, but the topic which was based on something that was Round and if you go back you will see that someone responded because THEY obviously got it. Maybe the last comment was rude, but then again, I think some people are a little over sensitive, especially on the beefstick comment! I am sure that the man is nice and sincere and that is great he is so well loved here. I have no intention of causing any harm now or ever on him.

    I forgot to address my profile....yes, it contains everything that Jim_TX either called me or accused me of. I didn't want to disappoint him.
