Does this make sense?

[Bangelnuts]

According to what Rentech said on that post, any user who is moderated will receive an email that they are now on moderated status and will have Moderated user as their title.  Neither of these have happened.  Yet my posts which I made 2 days ago still haven't shown up.  Does that not sound like moderation?

it sounds like it to me

Rentechd flat out lies in her next response to me:

In the PM I sent you for your original request to have your account deleted I did tell you you were placed on read only.
If yuo had bothered to make the entire response public nstead of editing it then you and others would have already known this and you would not have had to ask about it again.

And I somehow forgot that she replied to me originally?  Considering I only have 2 pm slots, I have to delete messages every time I post to her, you'd think I'd remember having to delete the first response to send my second request.

I have done nothing but straight cut and pastes from her responses, no editing whatsoever except to chop where she has quoted me.  I think she's gotten me confused with reggikko.  Wouldn't be the first time she's confused me with somebody else.

it's called twisting the tale to make you sound lik the villain

Hey if it was going on in the forum I could almost understand it, but she's lying to the very person she didn't send the message to!

My head hurts.

[Motoki]

You know, at this point I don't think she knows her head from the whole in her ass. If she wasn't such a bitch I might actually feel sorry for her.

[reggikko]

Vecki, it must be me she's thinking of. I almost also wrote her back, too,  citing her own "rules" and letting her know I had broken none of her rules and therefore should not be put on read-only status. Then I decided it would be a waste of my time since apparently none of us have access to Rentech-world, where reality changes on a minute-by-minute basis. So, what it boils down to is that after 90 days our accounts will be deleted. Geez.

And, yeah, I said I was going to let the matter drop, but it pisses me off.  Y'all have no idea how much I censor myself when I write about this.

Well they probably don't get many visitors there.  The list of people currently online is generated in a confusing way and does not represent people who are actively viewing the site at the time.

I think what happens is one or both of two things:  When you set up your account you can choose how long to stay logged in for before the system sees you as logged out.  I think most of us set that as "forever" as it's fairly harmless on a site that isn't handling your money, and saves having to log in again.

Also on most forum s/w you can set the who's online list to show people who were last active in the last 5 mins, 30 mins, 60 mins or no time cutoff.   That could mean the list might show everyone who ever logged in.

Yes they still have some attractive stuff on the site, but not so much so that they would have more users online than MTS2 itself!!!

...the double standard that sexual related things are 'bad' and must hidden but violence is just fine to display in the open.

I couldn't agree more.

"A bit hypocritical to go to the bother of a sweet speech, do you not think? It obviously a joke you make and must make this site sadder then if you just left with your mouth shut. Leaving a site that allowed everyone your downloads, and seemed to have treated you very decently and go moving to a site that spends more time bashing this one then doing anything creative. Why be nice when you obviously enjoy and think this bashing is true and your going supports it. It is obvious your message is all false and snide.

Some of us have come to really want and love your mods so taking them to a site where access is not granted unless you are known to the owner and liked by the owner and willing to bash another site for no other reason then its fun for you to do so is an unkind thing to do to many of your fans."

I found this funny because I had no problem accessing this site and I am not known by the owner nor am I probably liked!  Some people don't understand sarcasm and jokes and that is so sad for them.  Of course theisz had the perfect response before Rentech locked the thread even though there was no name calling, but I guess the truth hurts.  Everything was nice in that thread until DawnRider had to open their mouth and start the screaming.  So typical of the hypocrisy at that site.

Oh well, glad I found JM and TJ here so there's no need for VS in my bookmarks.  And yes, nipples do kill people -- well, at least they kill fembots!

This site would have been a ghost town from it's inception if J.M. allowed only those that he liked to be here! 

What an ill informed, ignorant piece of work DawnRider is!! Obviously he/she has never visited here (it's obviously beneath him/her to do so anyway) and hopefully he/she never gets the urge to do so!

[Andygal]

If he/she ever does he/she will probably have garbage cans by the end of the day if he/she acts like that. Just like that capitan somebody or other guy.

Hmm 1604 members and he only allows those he Knows and likes here well if that were the case I suppose about 1600 of us  give or take should be  exiting stage left right about  now

That must be some awfully good Kool-aid they're whipping up over there.

I as well had no problems reaching this site so I think thats a lot of talking out the ass over there or is it out of their servers.

[aussieone]

Ass??.......Servers???.......yeah, same thing LOL

[RainbowTigress]

Well, I decided to send Rentech a PM and ask her about why my contributor access was taken away as well as why I couldn't post and what happened with my rep.  Here's what I wrote followed by her response.

Can you please explain to me what happened to my Contributor access? Why was the thread removed with my Toddler hair? I can't even delete my Elder undies from my own thread. And why didn't my post on Nov 5 ever show up? Why was my reputation adjusted so that it now says I'm not okay? Am I being moderated for some reason? I don't understand why because I haven't broken any rules and I have not been notified that I am on moderation as stated in your policy stated here. I just want to understand what the situation is.

The MATY site demanded that your toddler hair be removed because they currently were hosting your contributions. I don't argue with them as it just causes more problems and more bad posting on their site. We definately do not want to be accused of having posted things that belong on another site.

I did not realize you had an additional post in contributors and apparently they did not either as they did not ask for it to be removed. You shouldbe able to remove your own posts but we can do this for you, and would have had MATY listed requested it also.

Contributor access is granted for people that are not contrbutiing elsewhere and need a place to contribute here. It was created when Pescado allowed people that were not forum owners to post some of their stuff in his forums and then abandoned then when he moved. We did that forum as a way to help out until either he offered room to these people or they found a place on another site. It was not supposed to be a permanent place once they had another place to post so we remove these thinsg when asked. Contributor statis is no longer needed if your not contributing and so it goes back to just a registered user.

Who is MATY?  Is MATY a person?  Who demanded that my stuff be removed?  And let me point out one tiny little fact.  My stuff isn't posted over here.  So where does she get this from???  She totally ignored the rest of my questions too.

[Brynne]

Ugh. That really pisses me off. Blatant lies! Does she really think you'll buy that?

[vecki]

I'm sure she's expecting rainbow to re-write her memory and go 'oh yes, now I remember!  I asked Pescado to put my stuff up!  Hang on, it's not on MATY!  Pescado's the villain!  How DARE he not put my stuff up!'

[aussieone]

Oh my god!! If there was any doubt about Rentech's talent for fabrication this is the piece de resistance!!

[MokeyHokey]

Wow.  Remind me not to take any of whatever she's on...
