Please Reset With ElRuffsta

[Shaggy Hiker]

Sometimes, relationships start off poorly, and that has been the case with ElRuffsta. After a lengthy discussion with him, he has asked, and I am asking, that everybody agree to start over. It isn't necessarily easy to leave behind past relationships. People usually abandon things that don't work out initially. In this case, ElRuffsta was not willing to abandon, but wanted to improve the relationship. I respect that, and I'm asking everybody else to do so, as well.

Whatever issues you've had in the past, please leave them there. Start fresh, and we'll see where this goes.

Sounds good to me....he does need some help with his coding efforts.

I decline the request, for numerous reasons. Shaggy, if you feel the need, message me privately to discuss it...I don't think you want me airing dirty laundry (not that there is anything particularly nasty, just personal opinion) publicly. When I block someone, they usually stay blocked irrespective of what transpires.

I'll participate less in what I have previously participated in regarding the aforementioned, unless I see good reason.

That's your choice, and silence is also fine. After all, nobody (well, nobody other than JMC) answers EVERY question....and John doesn't really, either. Most people only contribute to a small fraction of threads, either because they don't have time or don't have anything to contribute. That's the nature of the forum, and is pretty reasonable.

I missed the drama but encourage the desire to mend ways and man up shows character and I respect that.

Most people just create a new anonymous handle and keep going. I have found myself ignoring more and more people the last few years, don’t like it but sometimes it’s the only way

I'll give it a go. ...and start reading his threads again.
