Two apologies in Building A Better Mouthtrap Board from Zoe. This is the type of behavior everyone wants from her, yes? Then, those who were apologised to might want to acknowledge the apologies.
Not exactly, no. Because those weren't apologies for being rude. They were for making a mistake about who fucks with the DB.
But, not directed at me, yo. (edit: that sounds snarkier than intended. Sorry 'bout that. Not with it today.)
Because those weren't apologies for being rude.
It's a starting point, yes?
A starting point would be to come over here and participate in the discussion about the problems she's causing.
I most sincerely doubt it. Especially given the timing of it.
An apology for something that had caused a kerfuffle, in a kerfuffle based thread? Yeah, maybe.
But maybe I'm too old-time online and cranky, and see it as the same as when some nutjob wanders into your living room. Because too little, too late, too bad.
A starting point would be to come over here and participate in the discussion about the problems she's causing.
That would be one starting place. Are you saying that this can't be another?
Is she subscribed to Bureaucracy? If not, she probably doesn't even know the discussion is taking place.
It's been mentioned to her several times, on board and (I think) in emails.
More than one person has emailed her with links to this discussion (and mentioned doing so in this thread).
[edit: And, since B'cy is a sidebar thread, one doesn't have to be subscribed to see it. I'm not.]
I remember noticing it in one post, when (Kat?) first mentioned the possible warning. Didn't notice any other mentions of it at all, but then, I don't read Unamerican, and I've been skim boy. I assume that if anyone emailed her about it, they'll speak up.
And, since B'cy is a sidebar thread, one doesn't have to be subscribed to see it. I'm not.
But don't you have to be to have it come up when you hit Read New? Cuz' that's all I do, and probably lots of others.
People have emailed her. People have directly posted links in threads. People have bent over backwards. She knows this place is here. She's been here before.
