Lord Foul Quits

[lorin]

As an avid fisherman (fisherperson?) for almost GASP 57 years that once you stop feeding the fish they usually go somewhere else to feed.

lorin puts bait and tackle high up in closet shelf. There is room for other retired fishermen's equipment in my closet.

If I were to pretend for a second that this was not all a psycho mind game you are playing, why would you even write all this crap here at all? Just curious. And, I like games as much as the next girl, but the ones I like usually involved shaved urviles, chocolate, various whips, leather, some liquid latex and an audience of hairy dwarves for Zormie so she can braid their back hair. Have any of those on hand?

BBF, based on the reading comprehension and paranoia you are displaying on this thread, I would guess that your concerns are overblown, or altogether illusory.

Also - trolling forums is so faux pas now. Please set your time machine to 1998.

You call me a troll and then you come on here with so much Flops and Tailism as to make a person upset. I do not know you or want to upset you but I think what you are doing is stepping over a line. I forgive you because you do not know the entire story but I can't help but think you are ironically trolling. I don't know why you would post that picture but I believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Also, is the above statement supposed to make me realize that I'm out of the loop? I only come on this forum and a few Christian Science websites, so maybe I am.

I ask you, what is the point in these actions you take?

I'm am/was worried and that is all. If you had received the OTHER email I got from Foul in private, you would understand.

It was not written in flowery language or with any wit behind it. It was written with sheer, unadulterated confusion.

Out of respect for Foul I won't post the email but I assure you it was more than just out of character. Lord Foul has some serious faith issues.

That's all I'll say for now as discussing it is in bad taste and I know that Foul will read this.

Thank you

The point is: no one cares. Go find other people to bother. Reading your posts is like having a slow lobotomy. I. Don't. Care. And I don't want to see this kind of crap spewed over the forums than it already has. You haven't exactly had a good track record of posting.

Is LF in danger? Is he being chased by a bear? Has a horde of zombies risen to feast on his flesh? No? Then don't bother us about it.

There are credible people who have concerns about members, and there are dubious people who have concerns about members. You fall in the latter category. If you were truly concerned, you would have kept this private and contacted someone who actually knew. If he's avoiding you, take a hint: he's doing it for a reason. Whatever that reason is between the two of you, and not publicly on a book forum.

Go away, and get off my lawn.

This is an enlightened cop-out. Are the dams of time and space going to be destroyed if I ask for the help of fellow human beings on a forum? You people (maybe not you) know Foul than anyone. I am not speaking out of turn, he does not reveal ANY of the things he reveals on here to the real world. Do you understand what that means? YOU (by you i mean his forum friends not JazFusion) have the power to help him and you sit by? All I asked is that you post some kind words about Foul and somehow because of my illustrative writing or style you turn this around into your personal vendetta against me?

1. If you don't like what I write ignore it. My words don't effect your life in any way unless this is your only safe haven from the world.

2. This IS Foul's safe haven from the world. He doesn't use the internet unless he is on here and does not go out into the world like most people.

3. This is not your lawn I created this topic out of Love for a friend. DO NOT twist this into something ugly and sarcastic.

Thank You,

The point is: no one cares.

I have received private messages from members that they DO in fact care but think I should not go about an intervention in this fashion. I disagree but respect their right to stay out of this fight.

Furthermore, you care because why are you responding otherwise?

Going back to the last page and looking at the Neil deGrasse Tyson picture, I hit back to this page and briefly enjoyed a super-imposed negative. Nifty.

BBF, to answer your first question: FaceBook. And to your second(ish), people aren't going to respond the way you want them to (despite the fact that LF has gained many of our friendships over the years and likely knows he still has our warm regards) because then you win. We simply don't know or trust you enough to let that happen. So in your own way, you're actually working against your ostensible goal... which is, I assume, your actual goal. So congrats on that.

So, take a page from LF's book and moderate yourself. Learn the pace and tone of things around here. Otherwise... YGWYPF.

Mods, I would like to respectfully request a thread lock. It's gettin' a little warm up in hya.

If I stop posting on this topic and allow everyone else to post positive things about Lord Foul, will that work?

I hope so, I promise I won't post another word on this topic and hope you all say a kind word about Foul.

Thanks

[I'm Murrin]

Foul barely posted on here for a looong time and came back just to announce that he'd be quitting soon. This is me not caring.

[Obi-Wan Nihilo]

In before lock. BTW, having read LF's resignation post, I have to say I am in quite strong sympathy with it. I get the community thing, one of which I am but a tangential part indeed, yet I'd hate to be on my deathbed and think back on my life and have not much more than memories of a virtual life where the seminal moments were online. And sadly enough, that is a reality for a lot of people. Sometimes moving on is the healthiest thing. LF, wherever you are, good luck.

And thanks for the platypi.

I feel it coming on...

I asked Foul for permission to post the email that so disturbed me and he agreed. Judge for yourself if I am overreacting or not.

Imagine someone very close to you, one of your few witnesses to the world were to write this. I have read it over and over and still feel shaken.

I left out 75% of the email that was very personal and left in the root of of my disturbance.

The title of the email was im sorry! im sorry!

The more I had, the less I felt. The more I had the less I became myself. The longer I thought I needed something, the closer I got to that feeling that having it would mean wholeness. And when I got it, wholeness faded—loomed round and circular to nothing and forced my eyes to see.

I had been searching for happiness, having found it not in dry, dirt objects. So I looked in books for abstract ideals and the words of men—sounds and clacks that divided air. Both were nothing feeding nothing. I never found what he wanted me to find. I never—I just wish—I should have done it a long time ago, before the war. I should have put the metal in my mouth, pulled the trigger. Should have just ended this in some woods and let them find nothing. Should have been clean, no clean-up no mess. Should’ve never spoken never loved never put warmth in my mouth heart in my earth and I enjoyed it so much but lost it. I enjoyed you, while I had you. I loved you. I loved you.

I’ve had dreams where I’ve wept and apologized, until I awoke knowing with full certainty that my face was a smear of tears. But my hands felt my lids and dragged along dry skin. I kept waiting, unbelieving. It’s impossible to not be dry, having cried out so much in dreams. How can I not. Why haven’t I. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. God forgive me. God forgive. I’m sorry.
