Wake up call...short N sweet
Tuesday, March 11, 2003 by Angel_Wings | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Geez. This is my big "THANK YOU" to the admins here...
I never knew the extent that WC was involved with so many 'big wigs' and I always felt secure in this happy little WC 'community' without knowing the extent and amazing REACH that Stardock now has.
When I first came here...I felt like a little pea sharing a pod with fellow members...not understanding the full impact...DUH.
I hope some of you 'high ups' have noticed that I have curtailed my threads as well as posts by quite a bit.
I respect so many of you Admins...
Karmagirl
Paxx
BoXXi
Jafo
Koasati
DavidK
I know I left out too many
Anyway, I just want to let you know that I DO respect and appreciate what you all do here for this site.
What have I gotten from you?
Karmagirl:...The sweet yet stern one...she says it straight from the hip and doesn't hold back...good woman!
Paxx: Can be almost cruel with his stern points of view but he's always right on the money...no holds barred and a decent and good, caring individual when all is said and done.
BoXXi...Where do I begin? Heart of gold from the getgo... Someone whom made me feel special and encouraged my art...from day one...A keen eye...an artist's soul...pure gentlemen through and through.
Jafo...the spellchecker champion! But I look at Jafo with much love in my heart for he does a 'service' by keeping us in check. There were many times I saw improper grammar and Jafo caught it and it was like, YES! Touch down! Because, Jafo is not just being a critical person, he's really TEACHING people by what he does! Teaching can be subliminal that way...you point it out..."OOPS" and you are careful to remember next time. (hopefully)!
Koasati, I liked you from day one even before you were an admin. You have a good and decent heart and you well deserve your new status.
DavidK, I regret getting pissy with you when I was feeling low. You are a good and decent person and you were instrumental in bringing my sorry @ss back here…I’d hug you…but I never got the impression that you care for them so I won’t burden you with my hug.
Lastly…but firstly… Frogboy…Brad…You have been forgiving and good to me…and instrumental in helping keep my chin up when I’ve felt so down… You tell me to ignore…but I can’t ignore…especially good and DECENT folk like you… And I DO take words to heart…because behind those word is a human being thinking and feeling those things.
Just as…I am thinking and feeling these things towards you…and you may not like them…but I am more than just an ‘inanimate’ bunch of text on a screen… I am real, living, breathing flesh and emotions…
WC reminds me of the movie “A league of their own” with Tom Hanks as the manager of a female baseball team…My favorite quote in that movie was when Tom hanks was saying, “There’s NO crying in baseball!”
I can hear paxx saying to me…”There’s NO crying in skinning!”
…hehe
Don’t forget a human with flesh and blood and pain and hurts and foibles writes this…I may appear on your screen as type…but there is a heart, soul, and mind behind it.
Love,
Ela

You have almost brought me to tears Shmoopy...I am thoroughly moved.You always talk from your heart and I love you for that 
Gadget Girl also feels that there can be at times a lack of warmth and human kindness when all that is exchange is words.

Gadget Girl truly does not feel that way !! I find you to be quite genuine of heart !! Your only downfall is that you are a very sensitive person and take everything so easily to heart.

It is a cruel world out there!!! You have to get a little thick skinned to survive.

Angel_Wings gets upset and then her compassion button kicks in and she remembers "we're all in this together" and she gets over it pretty quick-like.
The only thing I DON'T like about human interaction on the internet is when its treated as though it's somehow separate from human...
Here is your picture...you uploaded it once and now I will violate for eternity for uploading said pic.
I've been a victim of continual copyright violations but I don't have the kind of money it takes to go after the people who violate me...and they DO... They put my 'clean' modeling images with "porno" as if I'm no different...and I've been fighting this ever since I got into the modeling business and dared to have my portfolio online.
I truly regret ever showing my face online in many respects...even though now I know better how to protect my images...the 'fetish freaks' still haunt me...I stil 'police them' and I am still afraid of them.

I sometimes wonder if people see me as a jerk, coz I have a tendency to be blunt............. Thanx for the kind words, Shmoopy.
