To all of you awesome poets on this site, I very truly am sorry for my harsh attitude towards DreamEvil. To DreamEvil I am really sorry I aimed my comments at you, please find it in your heart to forgive an overreactive mother. I was just so sickened and upset, I wrote before I thought. I acted childish, because I let fear motivate me. Please accept my sincere apologies and just move on. Don't let this silly mess wreck the best poetry site on the net.
The Very Humiliated, IsabelleSkye

I must say, Izzy, that although I respect you for posting this apology, I feel you have absolutely nothing to apologize about. You read something that was posted as a link at Passions which made you upset and you said so. What you read was unacceptable to you and you said so. So, what's wrong with that?

When I found your name no longer next to the Feelings Forum as Moderator, I assumed you had resigned. I am dismayed by all of this.

There is certainly nothing to be humiliated about. You said you were "sickened and upset" and rightly so. What was wrong with stating that? Your last statement that this is a "silly mess" is right on! Indeed it is. And your request to "move on" is also well spoken.

I'm sorry you have felt the need to apologize for your feelings.

I'll post here one last time to clear this up, then I'm outtttttta here. Please go to Q&A and read Ron's reply to Rainbow, his second reply. I did state that I could not be associated with a site that condoned that type of thing. (among other things harshly stated while I was upset) Ron took it as an absolute ultimatum, which sadly it wasn't. We did not have a chance to discuss it before my moderating days were over. So in best interests of this whole fiasco I said it was too much to worry about at the moment. I hate conflict of any type and to be caught in the middle of something is too much for me.These are my final words on this matter, in my mind it is over.
Take care, happy writing
IsabelleSkye

hun, I understand what you mean, and though I also echo doreen's sentiments, I think that this was a very humble and sincere apology to some thing that haunts you. I never meant to accuse you of anything, nor will I. every one makes mistakes in life, Lord knows I've made quite a few, some of which have taken me till just tonight to stop blaming myself and not letting it go. I won't be released of this burden I chose to carry until I've told my pastor tomorrow, but I feel good just knowing that the end is near. now hun, you know I've got nothing but love for you. I love all my friends and would be willing to go the distance for ANY of them, so I want you to know that what ever you do, please keep in touch. I'll support you through any time I can.

Your Friend and servant,

james

I echo your apologies.
I feel that perhaps I acted rather harshly too. It was never my intention to upset anyone, but rather to "point" out the manner in which things were done. I agree with Doreen, who said that you have every right to feel the way you do. I would NEVER try to take that from you. That you were brave enough to voice your opinion earns respect from me. I reiterate, my only concern was the manner.
HUGS all around, for I too am one that dislikes strife!

Izzy, the apologies are mine to give, not yours. I see your actions and words as entirely justifiable. I should have removed the link, but did not see your reply until far too late. I had thought only to scare people with an exaggerated reality and went much too far. I also agree that my warning should have been more forceful.

My apologies extend to all those offended by my posting.
