:( this thread brings sadness to my heart. All it seems to bring is pain.
Sadness is a thing every human-being gotta learn to deal with. The only thing we/phantom/neph or/and mufasa, sarabi can do is try to solve this. Or forget about it.
Thank you. :)Quote:

Obviously we all think in our ways and are not coming anywhere with this. What's the use of lettin' this get off topic as everything else? (ooh sorry.. really)
The best way to solve this problem would be for Phantom to realise that he's made a big mistake and tell Neph he's done wrong and make an apology. (If he don't already have). I mean it's a big mistake too harass someone. Then I hope Phantom can stop with these sexual crimes. It's REALLY not funny.
And some kind of disorder is NO excuse to harass someone.
This is a big mistake of Phantom. I think you should try to realise what you have done and STOP doing it. It's NOT funny.
I made this thread to get help, but I suppose I should of expected to be attacked by some.
... oh well.
Really, why are some of you supporting PhantomBPR? Neph did nothing wrong. Phantom was harassing her, and obviously had no respect for her, to talk to her in that manner. And we see what he is really like.
Sure he can apologize and such, and we may forgive him. But he deserved this thread. There was no excuse for him to talk to her like that.
Neph made this thread to really receive back-up and support from other members because of the PMs she was receiving. I agree, she never did anything wrong and was just trying to bring this incident to more attention to her fellow members.
Phantom shouldn't have been sending PMs out like that anyway; not only to Neph but to anybody. Neph has every right to make a thread especially if it needs to be brought to attention.
</rant>
I don't side with Phantom, as he did somthing stupid, and is getting what he had coming. As I said before, I do not plan to walk away from him, but I will certainly be more weary.
However, as much as I am against sexual harrasment, I can't feel totally sympathetic from Neph. I believe KS is wrong to say Neph has done nothing wrong. It isn't like she has never harrased people before. Before you go and say it isn't true, I can think of AT LEAST 4 instances when there were major arguements here stemming from thoughtless comments Neph made that caused sombody to jump on her. She may have sensitivity, but she does a good job hiding it. But anyway, that doesn't matter, as this thread isn't about that. As for the thread itself, I don't like the idea, but I guess Neph didn't have much other choice.
Oh, and I found the comment about Aspergers syndrome untrue. I have Asperger's, and it has never led me to constantly harass people. All it does if give me mood swings that can be compared to a woman bareing a child.
Well, what has she done wrong in this topic?Quote:

I never said she did anything wrong is this thread. She was the victim here. That is why I am not jumping on her. I am just saying that the victim it is a position she doesn't often take, and that she HAS been the instigator on more then one occasion.
Oh my.....what drama. O_O
Well, I'm just going to say that I am sticking beside my best friend Neph on this, and I could careless if people think I'm a suck-up, butt-kisser, etc. =P
She's an incredible friend, and I like her very very much.
Ok, I'm done here. *walks away with hands in pockets*
Okay, people my opinion.
Neph was right to make this thread, thank you Neph.
Phantom, you should say sorry and clean your act up even if you were only joking.
Okay, I'm gonna follow LKS's lead and stay away from this thread.
Dittoness... all this discussion will cause is more destruction than amendment...:(Quote:

Just because I'm tired of this thread and this problem doesn't mean that I dont wanna be a part of solving it out, or see if it will ever be.Quote:

You aren't American, I don't tell you how to deal with your leaders, don't even try to tell us how to deal with ours. I don't like the man personally, but your anti-American garbage was sickening, off topic, and uncalled for. Some people may have been nice about telling you to back off, but I won't.Quote:

I don't see how some people can call Neph rude, mean, or otherwise wrong for this thread. Have some people forgotten that she is a person and does have feelings? And have some people forgotten that anyone would be irritated, sickened, angered, and hurt if they got those kinds of PMs? Okay, say you didn't know Phantom and he sent you those PMs and posted those posts, would you be upbeat about it or would you be pissed? I'd say that 99% of the people here would be pissed; isn't Nephilim entitled to the same feelings when someone acts like that? Isn't she also entitled to make Phantom stop, even if it takes making the issue public? This isn't a matter of playing the victim; just because Neph is strong willed and not sensitive whiner doesn't mean that she should react any different to sexual harrassment. Is this a matter of not liking her? Seems like the people who have a problem with her on the forum in general also have a problem with her in this thread.
And, on a side note, I am sick and tired of this "Asperger's Syndrome" as a cop-out for anything that anyone does wrong. How many people here who claim to have it have a clinical diagnosis? And even if they do, that's no reason to behave how some people behave on this forum. I have an anger problem that I've been going to a therapist for, does that entitle me to beat the crap out of someone? No. Is it even a good excuse? Absolutely not. If I were to slit someone's throat because they pissed me off, I'd go to jail and I may even be executed. My point is, it's my responsibility to deal with my problems and not expect to get out of everything because I have a problem. If a person is so incapable of controlling their emotions, regardless of why that may be, then they need professional help in a facility designed to deal with this sort of problem while they work through it. I don't have anything against anyone with Asperger's Syndrome, but using a mental condition to get out of any trouble someone gets in, and even make it look like the accusers are the bad ones because you have this condition, is immature. It's time to grow up and take responsibility; acting like that is wrong. Very wrong.
Exactly.Quote:

In the great scheme of things, is this really all that important?
Yeah. Except, they hate my guts, so I don't think that all they did was a joke. :p But whatever. End of disscusion about that.Quote:
For example, you're friends with Suki. Afasik, she's had problems with people being mean to her IRL. I'm sure they do/did it as a joke and to be funny, but does that really make it okay?
Thank you COTP.Quote:
And in the case of Suki, well, that's not exactly the topic posted in the thread, so I won't discuss it.
You know, PBPR, altough I'm friends with you, I am not on your side nor Neph's. (I'm still gonna be your friend after what I am about to type) But I am concerned about what you did to Neph, as she is my friend, even though she didn't know that before until this post. I wouldn't like to be sexual harassed again (see this thread.). Just please change your actions and don't be sexual or whatever you were to Neph, and just apoligize, please!*starts crying* That's all I'm asking...please....just please...http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y19...earfulNala.gif
I agree, just because someone is not as open with their emotions doesn't mean that they dont have or can't feel the same emotions as anyone else. I think that some people look at Neph as someone who doesn't really feel and could care less about other people...when in reality they don't even know her. So don't be saying s*** if you don't know her.
Have you all forgotten Neph's first sentence in the original post?
I mean, she put a smiley....come on...Obviously if she can say 'that'll get him to stop x)', then it's not bothering her that much.
Why? Because she wanted him to stop? Oh yeah, that's really bad.
People react differently to things, just because she didn't type in all capital letters, curse, use too many !s, and have incoherent spelling does not mean that she wasn't bugged by it. If she made this thread, then obviously it was important enough to be an issue. A smiley doesn't depict a person's absolute emotion; I could say that my best friend was just shot and killed, put a x) at the end of it, and I think I'd feel just as crappy
I have to disagree there. That was a hopeful and sarcastic remark, probably from relief. I'm pretty sure that Neph is capable of being hurt. Despite what I said earlier, I don't see Neph as an emotionless statue. She just knows how to hide it well when it isn't important. That can be a very helpful trait for leaders who need to seem impartial.Quote:

I don't know her motives or reasons, but no one can deny that Nephilim has offended people before without showing remorse. Maybe she hides her guilt as well.:hehe:
We can't. This is his last term. Which just goes to show how much you know about this matter, which means you have no right to go around bashing our country's leaders.Quote:
