UPDATE: There seems to be a question about the links that are currently posted. I guess I didn't make it clear. I was talking about links giving Mckmama's new house information. The current links are fine because they are links about what this blog stands for. I have no problem with links like this. I just will not allow links that are posted to cause harm to anyone or to give information about someone who hasn't made that information public. Hope that clears that up. Hope everyone had a great weekend, I know I did! I also have no problem with links to other blogs if you find something interesting you would like to share or discuss.
Hello Ladies:
I know I said I was going to take a backseat with this blog and just allow everyone a safe place to voice their opinions.
Well we see how well that worked out!
I am still going to keep my commenting to a minimum since when I comment it brings the bullies here to lash out, but I have decided to keep the comments on moderation for now. By doing this I will have to be around more so I may have something to say from time to time. You know answering questions or explaining things.
One thing I would like to make 100% clear for everyone is the following:
* This blog will keep the language clean (work with me on this)
* NO THREATS to anyone!
* You can disagree with someone but please be respectful.
* NO LINKS or listing of addresses of anyone or telephone numbers.
* No talking bad about ANY children.
These are the same rules we have always had but it appears by the number of comments I have had to delete lately these needed to be said again.
Sorry about the comment moderation because I know it makes it harder to have a conversation with others. It's sad but every single time this blog calls the bullies out..this is the price we must pay. Give it some time and they get bored and move on and I can once again remove the moderation. With Mwop saying they will be down over the weekend I know they will be coming here to spill their hate so the moderation will stay in place for now.
Have a nice weekend everyone!

NEW POST
Here is a new post to continue with comments.
UPDATE: Someone from MWOP posted the location of Mckmama's new house on this site. The info has been deleted. If you see this site mentioned in a negative way at MWOP you can flag the comment. Hold your cursor over the flag and a box will appear, hit flag comment in the box. You should flag it at least 5 times to make sure it is removed. This will make the MWOPers very angry because they hate when their comments are flagged. The dead giveaway that Anja is OK with them posting the location on this site is she normally will not allow this site to be mentioned, yet today it is OK????
PORNgate is what this reminds me of. See Anja is no better than Shell. At least Shell owns what she does and didn't put her readers up to doing her dirty work. Anja you should be ashamed of yourself and ashamed of the women you are breeding over at MWOP!

Changes..
I've really been thinking of what to say and how to say this, so please be patient with me as I try to express this.
I've waited a few days to really think about this decision and how best to continue from here.
As many have noticed I have removed the moderation on the comments. I will not post them, but let's just say the nasty, cruel things that were said about me and my family are shocking. It's one thing to call me names, but when you attack my children and grandchildren..well let's just say I was ready to claw some eyes out. Yes, I was angry and hurt. This is why I had to moderate the comments. I will moderate again if I have to.
Pink left a comment on the last post and this is a part of what she said:
That experience made me step back from MWOP and the MckDrama and stepping back showed me how much time and emotional energy I was giving the whole mess. You know what? I DO have better things to do! And so do the others that are dedicated to MWOP and spend large portions of their days and nights there. Places like MWOP suck you in and keep a powerful hold--if you allow them too.
Pink I agree with you 100%.
I've decided to step back from commenting here. It seems like if I voice my opinion it brings the crazies here to try and pick a fight. Believe me I know who they are and I also know they are mad because I called them out for being bullies. That's fine and I accept that..I just feel it takes away from the discussion and the purpose of this blog.
From now on I will delete any mention of me on this blog. I will not explain and I will not defend my action. This blog isn't my personal blog about me. This blog is about blogs that bully and things about blogging people may not like.
I will try and put up a new post at least once a week. If someone wants to talk about something you can discuss it in the comments or if you like, email me and it can be an entire post.
UPDATE:
If you missed the news in the comments I just wanted to let you guys know the FAKE FACEBOOK account has been deleted. Facebook security department contacted me yesterday and said it was GONE. They have the ISP and have listed it as violation of the TOA with Facebook and added it to a blacklist? :)

New City New Everything
Well I made it here and hopefully by next week I will be back to a regular pace on my blog.
I'm not in the new house yet, they are finishing up a few things on the punch list and we had the carpet taken out of the bedrooms and wood floor installed so all of this delayed everything. Our furniture will arrive this weekend and I'm praying that all goes as planned and I can spend my first night there Sat.
I'm sick of this hotel and the terrible internet service! This time I asked for the top floor hoping it would be better, not so much.
Now down to business.
I've had to moderate the comments due to trolls saying nasty things. I hated to do it, but I had no choice. My blog friend has her own very busy life and I hated the position it was putting her in. I don't know how long I will be forced to have them moderated. Certainly until I am unpacked and settled. Real life comes first!
While waiting at the airport over the last few days with flight delays, I've had lots of time to think about a few things.
One of the things I would like to ask everyone is to please refrain from talking about Mckmama. The current events with her and her husband are heartbreaking and really we should all just allow her some grace. I know many are still angry with her for her past mistakes, but why kick someone when they are already down. I'm sure she is suffering right now and is holding on by a thread and this blog will not be a part of tearing her down further. I do respect that everyone has their opinion, just let's be the bigger people and allow her the space to get her life and that of her children in order. Thanks for understanding.
Due to my being absent so much from this blog over the last month I have noticed many comments that have happened that would not normally been allowed to stay. Sorry I wasn't here to better police it, but hopefully with moderation now all this will be taken care of.
The last thing I would like to say is for some reason some assume I have some kind of hate or vengeance for a few people. I noticed in the comments Shell, Notshelmo, Lisa and Shannon kept getting mentioned and many assumed I hated them. First, I would like to say I hate no one. I really dislike that word. Just because a person has a difference of opinion with someone doesn't mean that hate someone. Second, I really feel bad about posting Shell's real name. At the time I had known her real name for months and never disclosed it. The PORN was the last straw for me and I felt it was the only way to get her attention. Shell has said she was sorry about the PORN and I know she is realizing now it was a big mistake. We all make mistakes..but it is what we learn about ourselves from these mistakes that is important. I learned I was way over involved in a blogger I didn't know IRL and I was allowing others to get under my skin. I have since learned that none of that is important. My family and my real friends are what matters at the end of the day..not the internet drama.
For all who assumed Shell was behind the fake facebook account, well Shell was one of the people who emailed me to tell me about it. My email is linked to my phone and I kept getting all the messages that I had emails waiting..2 were actually from Shell. I don't believe Shell was involved, I do believe someone wanted Shell to be blamed. Shell thank you for the email and thank you to all the others who emailed also. I've never had so many emails before at the same time. It made me very happy to have so many watching my back. To the ladies who emailed me about ideas about how to resolve the fake facebook..thanks. Facebook has been notified and they are resolving it for me. Some things take time and if they removed it without doing the research they would not be able to figure out who did it. Everything is traceable..everything! By the way, read the facebook terms of agreement. Taking a picture from someones private blog then posting it without permission and passing it off as someone is a violation..and changing up the spaces between the words doesn't make any difference. Posting their personal blog info and using their blog name in an email was all the proof facebook needed. The pictures came from a blog that is now private but they have filed a grievance with facebook and reported it as theft. Copyright laws are very strict and protect the owner of the pictures.
I know I've told you guys I don't have a sitemeter here and I don't, but the blogger feature has Stats that tell you how many hits you have to your blog. Well let's just say we have doubled our hits in just the last week..we already averaged over 4000 per day. YIKES that is lots of people looking at this blog. Maybe a big old THANKS needs to go out to the fake facebook creator..this blog has been contacted by an ad agency due to our STATS. Of course I am not interested in having ads and I told them no..but it means the message we are sending is getting noticed. We are nearing 500,000 hits in less than a year and in the beginning this blog was only getting a few hits a day. WOW we have come a long way.
Wish me luck on moving and send good thoughts that the furniture arrives in one piece.
Cheers
