My husband talks to me in Russian all the time - it’s a good thing he doesn’t expect responses when he does!

Like CGR said in a previous post, no accusations where made and there was no name calling. Just a little OT conversation on this thread between two friends. THAT’S IT!!! So Arielle, don’t start any name calling now.
Just try and get over it and continue on with the topic at hand. Willem…

Doesn’t that have to be channeled through your communicator? Can we syndicate that? Dude we could take Avery to NASCAR events and have him do color commentary. How much would your communicator charge us for that??

I will be glad to move this for you, feisomeday. I think that you are quite lucky to have met him. Everyone should know about this, immediately!
This too, shall pass.
Willem, have you ever considered going on tour? We don’t get to see any celebraties here in Vermont. 
I want to be part of the “met Willem clique!”
Vermont - where winter riders are real riders.
So, let’s get this straight… You two don’t believe in imaginary horses, but now you’re in a cyber-argument with one… Oh, so funny…
** Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious. **

Oh Willem …
You’re such a diplomat! You should work for the State Department where I’m sure you could work miracles … even on your way to the bank.
And I’m very glad you could “giff ein hooter.” You always make me laff …

The one way to make sure a thread stays alive is to keep posting on it. Thanks, gb and cgr.
Myself, I totally appreciate Willem’s humor and perspective. And as I seem to recall, Willem has posted in german but I don’t think he like to make posts generally that make people feel excluded. But cgr; sprechen alles im deutch or en francais, si vous preferez.
We are all just here to have a good time. Of course that bothers some people and if they don’t have the mental resources god gave fungus, they only thing they can think of to entertain themselves is to rain on everyone else’s parade. That is OK, it just bumps the parade to the top of the pile so the rest of us can enjoy it.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

However, I refuse to stop posting if NHWR is going to call me fungus!! Now that’s just not nice!!

Uh, CGR, what exactly are you trying to accomplish here?
So you don’t like talking horse threads. We get it. But what exactly do you propose be done about it?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I propose nothing. I propose you let me go about my business considering that I am not insulting anyone personally! I am merely stating my opinion!
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Should we institute a new BB rule that no talking horse threads are allowed? OK… what about H/J fashion threads? Or which-helmet-should-I-buy threads? I personally think they’re more boring than watching paint dry. Because I don’t like them, should they not be allowed?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I’m sure some pro-approved helmet posters would definitely argue that the which helmet should I buy topics are extremely beneficial, as they can encourage posters into safety-dom! I agree they are boring, and while I may not enjoy the Willem posts they aren’t boring. Boring and annoying are two totally different things
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Should every frequent BB topic be put up for a vote of approval to decide if those threads should or shouldn’t be permitted? I’d venture a guess that every BBer has topics they can’t stand. Should we ALL go post on those threads? Or, as others have suggested, should we maybe just not read the threads we don’t like?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Isn’t that why we have polls - I’ll volunteer to start the poll!! Who’s with me?? If no one likes my posts, why are they reading them?? If I can skip over a thread I do not like, can they not skip over posts they do not like??
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Forgive me for being blunt, but I honestly don’t see what you’re trying to do here, unless it’s just poo-stirring… in which case, I guess your mission is accomplished.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I forgive you! I’m trying to state my opinion, that’s all. Opinions are allowed on other threads, but since this is a happy only thread I guess I’m not allowed to! Wait if I use a German accent can I post my opinion??
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>For the record, I don’t recall any posts expressing negative opinions of any talking horse ever being deleted or edited. In fact, I don’t recall moderators ever having to step in on one of these threads before. So I’m not sure where your assertion that negative opinions on these topics aren’t allowed comes from. You’re expressing your negative opinion right now, aren’t you? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Darn skippy I am expressing my negative opinion right now and I see two moderators stepping in - I guess there is a first time for everything! Pardon me for not explaining myself correctly, negative opinions aren’t allowed period!! It has nothing to do with Willem himself!! Forgive me Willem. . . .
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>However, I fail to see the point in disrupting a thread that other people are enjoying just because you don’t like it. Your opinion is duly noted… unless you have some sort of constructive solution to offer about all this, though, I really just don’t see what point there is in continuing the mudslinging.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Well all I did originally was rolleyes emoticon, there was no mudslinging what-so-ever in that. I still, other than possibly with Arielle (who is an e-horse correct?) have not slung mud at anyone, and if anyone has perceived that to be true, my most sincere apologies. Arielle and Willem I will be sure to send many baby gourmet carrots your way so that I can avoid any repurcussions being aimed towards me in your scintilating German and Swedish accents, respectively. I certainly have not had any complaints from the e-horses owners yet, merely the mortals who claim to be their companions.
Now what is your constructive solution - other than to tell me to shut-up??
