Anything I can do?

Oh sweetie, u r such a dear heart & I so appreciate you!

Actually I seem to be handling things on my own once again... they're a tough crowd out there in the Showcase but 1 things for sure, being that I was brought up in a tough part of a city, I have no problem handling these boys even with 1 hand behind my back... I am woman hear me roar!

Andygurl, you attacked my character in a rude, unfounded way when I had never even heard of you. I am a new member here. Most of the community has welcomed my participation and have been very gracious in their comments. You chose a different, confrontational approach. Rather than let your slanderous accusations go, I defended myself. That is all. If you feel you got the worst of the exchange because your ugly side was exposed, as others on the singers showcase have come forward and mentioned in the ensuing day or two, you only have yourself to blame.

You seek to elevate yourself by diminishing others. People you don't know. You made things up about me. About other people I don't even know here. You brought your rants to other singers comment threads when I deleted your hateful. rambling edicts and commands of how I should conduct myself, when the only conduct unbecoming that brought about the whole unfortunate situation was that of your own, your husband's and Mark Cheetah who followed your lead.

You twist and distort and turn what should be a joyful experience of sharing into something ugly. You're a very passive-aggressive personality who feels that she must be in control of everyone else.

I never wrote anything to you or about you until attacked by you. But I did respond when you accused me of lying about my identity, trying to slander my character. Why you would do this to someone who only started posting here a month ago is beyond any rational comprehension.

If this results in some sort of censure for me, rather than you, the aggressor in this incident, so be it. But there are two sides to every story and before I let you continue to slander and distort, I wanted the opportunity to present my side to the site admins to who I apologize for the trouble, but not for my defending myself against attack by you and your two friends. Everyone else here, has been absolutely wonderful and courteous. But you have some real problems that I hope you seek some help for. Because your behavior on the singers showcase is really, really strange. Sweet to those you deem "worthy", and extremely caustic and sour to those who don't meet whatever standards you have set for yourself. All the system admin need do is go back to the beginning of the exchange, to see who started all the trouble...

It was you.

Love Fifteen.
Andy to serve.

Hey Jerry, nice to see you here on my thread as well as on my forum profile

Nah, I'm just gonna let them win the match & be done with it... I have too many good people & good things going on in my life to even be the slightest bit concerned.

BTW... my counterpart & I will be purchasing memberships here soon so we're making our bed & plan on staying here till eternity

Again, and for the record, I'm not trying to "win", anything. I was simply practicing the art of self-defense. I have no axe to grind with you, Andygurl. I didn't even know who you were before you started the aggression. And having to defend myself is not why I came here. I don't think anyone wants to be put in that position. I wasn't looking for a fight or conflict. I also didn't come here to be to be slandered by you, your husband Steven John or your friend Mark Cheetah.

Contrary to what you might think, Andygurl, this isn't a "contest" in which there are winners and losers. I always try to treat others with courtesy and respect. But when personally attacked, indeed blindsided by a complete stranger, I will respond. That is all.

And again, please don't try to portray yourself as some sort of an innocent "victim", here. You three started all the trouble and attacks against myself and others who had the temerity to say nice things about my contributions. If you are feeling badly, you should remember that you brought this whole unpleasant episode upon yourself.

I hope that your "paid" membership will not afford you any special privileges to allow you to impugn the character of others and continue with the sort of unprovoked slander you hurled at me, as that will reflect rather poorly on the site as a whole.

I think if people spent more time creating art instead of tearing down what others have created, more time singing instead of slandering, the world, and this place as a microcosm of it, would be a much better place.

That is all that I have to say.

Mr McNeal, Let me state for the record that I've been here for a lil' over 5 years now, it says on my profile that I joined in 2007 but I actually was a participant since 2005... & in the almost 6 years I've been here, I've made some really great friends that I respect & love & vise versa. Ya see, it takes years for this kinda thing to happen & grow, it doesn't happen over night & I have many people here that do respect me to this day now matter how many folks come along & try to discredit me in any way, shape or form, as well as some people who have left this site for 1 reason or another whom I still keep in close contact with.

There are still lonely, desperate folks here on this site who continuely try to harass me while sitting behind their big bad keyboards but who now go unoticed to me cause it means absolutely nothing when the day is over... if they wanna live with hostility around them, so be it but I refuse to live life that way cause it's too precious to me.

If I have offended you, then please forgive me & let's move on our merry ways. You & I could have been friends down the road but I just don't see it happening, not when you pal around with the likes of you know you, I won't mention any names cause I was already accused of doing that.

I take music & this site very seriously & I do love it here & as mentioned, this is my home & second family.

I hope this clears things up

Mr McNeal... Oh & 1 more thing... your friend that said 'I have to deal with her on another site', I'm not quite sure what they're referring to, this is the only k site I frequent & will ever frequent. If indeed they're referring to somewhere outside of this k site, well then I hope they will delete me or not interact with me cause I don't need people like that in my world.

Also, just for the record, in my own observation, some people tend to leave this k site with a big goodbye farewell message in their last sub/song in hopes of finding a more satisfying, happy place to lay their hats down cause they feel the critique's here are too harsh for them (and as we all know, critique's cause some folks to turn red & an all out war is then created) so they rather find a place where they have a 24 hour hall monitor on duty to protect them at all times & keep the peace... but in reality where does that really get you as an artist? I still can't figure that out.

Ok I'm done now

You're right. I don't know who you are talking about. And I don't "pal around" with anyone here. This is all some fantasy of your own making. I'm too new here to even KNOW anyone, let alone take sides, create alliances, make friends, engender hatreds or get involved in any of the many psycho dramas that you seem to be at the center of.

I'm glad that you've been here a long time, but does that grant you special privileges and rights over all others when it comes to displaying basic courtesy?

I'm glad that you've made lots of friends. Does that mean that you should be threatened when someone is trying to befriend a newcomer?

I'm sad that you chose to target me, a newcomer to the site, for persecution.

I'm glad that I defended myself. Bullies come in all shapes, sizes and genders.

I'm glad that others were kind enough to see the situation for what it is and not join in on your attack, other than your husband and Mark Cheetah for reasons known only to them. I didn't even know Steven John WAS your husband until I made the unfortunate error of paying him a compliment on one of his submissions. I guess that made me fair game for more scrutiny and derision?

I am MORE than happy to put this matter to rest and would appreciate it if you simply refrain from commenting on any more of my submissions or sniping about me on other people's submissions as you've been doing and perhaps we can just put this extremely unfortunate matter to rest.

I am not even asking for an apology from you for starting all the trouble by attacking me and others who had nice comments to make about my covers. I am simply asking to be left alone. Thank you.

Peace.

Peace, my sentiments exactly!

I hope this means your other supporters that have given me nasty comments on my songs will now leave me alone & just concentate on you & your music.
I have a song to go work on now... peace out!
