I’m sorry, I can’t, because I have composed a song this week for my eight month old that goes thusly

I want a brontosaurus for christmas,
Only a brontosaurus will do
I don’t like trikes or tyrannosaurus,
I only like a baby brontosaurus
and a baby brontosaurus likes me too!

Please note, I am aware a brontosaurus isn’t a thing anymore. But I don’t care.

Really? Why, just the other day I saw a brontosaurus with marshmallow fluff on his lips.

SJ used to post really neat, educational, videos. She made it clear, fun, and even showed how to overcome common evasions. It was awesome.

When Susan Wachowich stole SJ’s name for social media and then demanded $8k in payment for SJ to get it back, i stopped following the sites SW ran. I didn’t realize SW was running Dressage Hub though. This level of vindictiveness is just… Mind boggling. How crazy!

Anyway, i unfollowed/unliked DH. I can’t support someone who bullies others. And doing it while having an antibully campaign going… The hypocrisy is unreal.

Wait, wait, I’m to stupid for complicated ongoing drama. Is SJ the woman [she] is featuring in those photos/video?

Cause I slow.

Yes. Jaccoma. (sp?)
SJ used to give SW lessons. SW decided to set up social media sites for SJ to feature SJ video tutorials. They were trading free lessons for SW to run the site. SJ gave SW 35+ free lessons for the social media.

No contracts. No agreements past free lessons.

SJ wanted SW to stop posting some of the junk SW was posting. So SW decided SJ owed her $8,000, plus all the free lessons. Took all of SJ sites hostage and bashed the crap outta SJ for it.

So now, several years later, SW is STILL going after SJ with a vengence.

I don’t follow the drama… It’s just what i’ve read from both sides over the past several years.

Wow. That’s somehow even sadder that the site/this woman seems to have so many followers. Granted they generally seem like people who like horses but don’t know anything about them, let alone riding, let alone enough to slag any rider, but still sad, because once you decide you already know, it’s really really really hard to learn anything.

Again, just look at all of our threads where people come asking questions, when all they really want is for people to agree with them, and then they get furious when people don’t.

You can read it in SJ’s own words here, with links to other complaints https://www.facebook.com/s.jaccoma/posts/10202079909736527

That is disturbing. SJ sounds beyond reasonable, and while I admire what seems to be years of restraint, it astonishes me she doesn’t seem to have sought or received any legal recourse.

From SW’s FB page:
Do these people realize the more they talk about me the more they help my social media influence? I love this. I stole someone’s identity? Who wants the identity of a drunk old lady? I did however keep the social media [SJ] never paid for. You know, like the bank does when you don’t pay for your car. Too bad them filing complaints with Facebook didnt work. Going on 6000 views in less than 48 hours. Thanks for making me viral!

Comments by her: They are so dumb they actually think unliking my page will have some sort of impact. Conversely they are actually just helping make [SJ]'s video viral. I love stupid people.
Yup. It’s ok. While they are busy talking about me. I have been busy reporting it to the governing bodies of the sport.

(posted youtube video link ) It shows the woman who started all the bullying against me, abusing a horse. She is not very happy with me right now. Trying to distract from the issue by making this about me. But she posted the video as a sales video. I just zoomed in a little for her.

:eek: [edit] So now SJ is bullying SW?! Soap opera plot.:no:

Entirely disturbing. And those comments she made are under the LINK TO THIS POST slamming her.

So waving hi to her as she’s obviously watching and reading.

Why so mean? Making you look really, really bad. You do realize that your viral views are not from people who agree with you [edit]?

Complete narcissist. Wow.

I imagine a lot of folks followed SW somewhat unthinkingly because they stumbled across a video of a famous person she posted. People who follow things tend to follow a lot of things. Most of them are probably unaware of any of this. Followers is a fairly empty metric unless they are growing.

When traffic gets driven to your websiite but it’s all lookiloos at a train wreck, that’s not going viral. It’s a downward spiral. And if you have no sponsors left and no ads, then you can’t monetize these clicks.

The whole thing is rather pathetic except for the fact SW is capable of going quite vicious as with the identity theft.

I would expect if she’s been banned from showgrounds due to inappropriate behavior then the website is on its last legs.

I can’t help wondering what she plans on doing with the Cambox helmet cam and the drone she purchased last month. She also claims she got her German Shepherd dog because she was afraid of being attacked like this woman was:

Different animal, but yes.

I am one who was completely ignorant to any of the drama and had previously enjoyed most of the videos that were shared. It’s too bad this is all blowing up.
