              I work for a non-profit and also as an independent contractor, but my services are funded by a the NYC Department of Education on both accounts. I'll let them decide where they want me I guess because I could probably be considered either.

                You may want to un-perma ban any B&B folks here if you want more participants, or at least let us know who is excluded so that we can scorn them.

                  I clicked, but I have to be a member of L&O to look at it. Do I really want to go down that path?

                    Ditto, hence I'm passing up this opportunity to embark on my own running streak.

                      I'm in on it.

                       

                      Hooray for olives, and the branches they ride in on.

                          This alone shows that you know nothing of what you are talking about here.  But hey, I wonder why people ignored this thread.  After all, you only come here to stir drama and then go to L&O to incite them to come over here to post and create more drama.  I'm really befuddled as to why people don't post on this thread.  Flabbergasted, in fact.

                            umm, o.k. Whatever, I was sincerely trying to get the word out about an interesting challenge. But hey, have fun.

                             

                            BTW, I did notice that you're still a member of L&O.

                             

                            As far as the permaban, I guess there's 3 people (KK and Jamin for sure). I forgot about one regular poster over here who was kicked (don't know if they've been permabanned, but I would understand if they are)

                             

                            Thanks to all from B&B who've signed up for the challenge (there have been a number from here)!

                             

                            p.s. why must everything be taken so seriously over here?

                             

                            p.p.s. you're absolutely right, I started a thread over here based on information I received in L&O. However, you don't know me at all, or the reason I started it. You may have assumed a few things, and I won't be able to change you're assumptions. I had real and sincere reasons for what I did. I was trying to get a real conversation going. I'm sorry you were offended by my posts. It was not my intention.

                             

                            p.p.p.s. I will also add, everything I've ever done on this forum has been out in the open. I've never tried to hide or sneak around. I've never whined, complained, backstabbed and the like through private messages. It's all in the open.

                             

                            p.p.p.p.s. I still like pie, and B&B.

                              BTW, I did notice that you're still a member of L&O.  I WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE BANNED FOR WEEKS FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER.  THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE THAT WERE BANNED FOR NO REASON OTHER THAN THEY WERE POSTERS FROM THE B&B.

                               

                              As far as the permaban, I guess there's 3 people (KK and Jamin for sure).

I'm sorry you were offended by my posts. It was not my intention.  NO, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE MANY TIMES YOU'VE GONE TO L&O TO TELL THEM WE HAVE A POSSIBLE MELTDOWN THREAD TO PLEASE COME HERE TO CHECK IT OU.

                                 

                              p.p.p.s. I will also add, everything I've ever done on this forum has been out in the open. I've never tried to hide or sneak around.

                                And it looks like the only whining person here is you.  You just opened a thread in L&O to complain about my response here.  Very open, I see.  I just commented here because you were whining about receiving no responses.  You have left this group at least once when you claimed people were being too serious (the event log we owners have showed it).  Fine that you wanted to promote the challenge; it should be fun.  Just stop whining about us there and here.
