#379. To: Neil McIver (#377) By way of further discussion, my own opinion, again, is the site should be shut down. I agree. I have made the executive decision. LP will be shut down. I apologize to people for putting them through all this, it just took me way too long to understand that the "right thing" all along was for LP to end when Goldi passed away. I was too focused on trying to keep her "baby" going when in fact LP was a part of her and should have been turned off after people were informed of what happened. Add this to all of the personal hassle and aggravation it has caused and there is really no reason for me to continue this. What needs to be done to enable site email and can you give a short description of how it works? I don't want to just cut people off from each other. sysadmin posted on 2015-01-12 11:22:25

no worries.
I wonder how many new faces we'll see over here when they finally do pull the plug?
"Call Me Ishmael" -Ishmael, A character from the book "Moby Dick" 1851. "Call Me Fishmeal" -Osama Bin Laden, A character created by the CIA, and the world's Hide And Seek Champion 2001-2011. -Tommythemadartist
None for me. One thing though, if they purge the LP database then there goes all those years of wisdumb posted by Badeye.

Tommy, I think I sent my reply to you to your mail by mistake. I don't know how many might come here but LP has something like 100 active posters (or so they say).

That whole place was an angry mess. Get past the emotionalism over Goldie, who was nuts, and there's no reason to keep that thing afloat. If you ask me it was more a site that gave dissension type sites a bad name than anything else. Also, far too many establishment types over there. I think that most will end up at Liberty's Flame, which is more aptly named Liberty's flamers so many LP-ers will fit right in. Many were already double posting at both prior to that, at least years ago when I last checked. Just my two-cents.
Are you talking about Liberty's Flame? I believe that some of the posters on that site also posted on LP.

Yeah, I just edited my post. Thought I would catch it in time. LOL But yeah, that's the one, and yes, at last check for me, which again, was like five years ago, there were many cross-posters. Similar type of rage and uncivil discussions at both.
Yeah, it seems that some of them have a time trying to get along. That is why the bozo filter, aka kill file, is a wonderful invention. People don't have to disrupt a site that has that feature if there is someone on it who grates on their last nerve. And I will add that I am not blameless when it comes to flame wars--not that I engage in them these days but I used to.

RIP elPee...it was fun while it lasted.
I agree. "Liberty's flamers" good one.
When it gets to that point though is the site really worth visiting?
I agree LF will likely take the largest share. Stone probably has the most in common with Sally's sentiments, promoting Israel being perhaps the biggest one. Remains to be seen if Stone can keep them. He seems to have cleaned up his act from times past since he picked up some Christians Sally alienated from LP.
It was? : Z
Stone needs to go out to Colorado for a long weekend and run his shop from there. He'll be fine. ; ) PS ... no pun intended.
Excellent point.
Oh, so far it has been. I have availed myself of that wonderful invention on LP when I used to post there and even on this site. I get along with most of the people who post here, even those I disagree with at times. But if you have a serious issue with someone it is better to use the tools available than to disrupt the site. I would retire from posting before I would knowingly do that.

absolutely
Honestly, life support for LP has been on for a VERY long time.....

I agree. I have made the executive decision. LP will be shut down. I agree. I have made the executive decision. LP will be shut down. I agree. I have made the executive decision. LP will be shut down.
I used to be in a hurry, then I figured out I was just getting nowhere fast.

That's interesting that you mention this. I wonder if some of those faces will be Yukon or MadDog.
#21. To: James Deffenbach (#0)

I never did get the transition from the Lower East Side to the Arizona dessert. Talk about culture shock. She is a sweet soul, but I can only indulge the UFO thing for a few minutes.

Well one person, yeah, but if you find yourself routinely having to use the bozo filter, that's what I was referring to. Oh, so far it has been.

#32. To: Katniss (#31)
I guess that some of the people I have put on the clown filter aren't even posting here these days. But I just do that when someone "gets up my nose" as they say in England.

palo verde made an appearance last night!!: Well we all had a lot of fun on LP It was a thrilling forum At first I was stunned and heart broken when I found out it had reached the end of its run But I now think sysadmin did a good job We all got to express our love and appreciation for Goldi, and to say what a great forum she gave us And now we all got to express appreciation of each other, and what great posters ya'll were I will be able to go to sleep with peace in my heart now Sweet dreams to all of you I love you Palo palo verde posted on 2015-01-14 2:54:43 ET

#34. To: X-15 (#33) (Edited)
Yeah, palo verde is really cool. If she should ever post here she'll make many friends easy. She is a writer and like I mentioned introduced me to Sibel Edmonds website (whom I also managed to make contact with too) who exposed the higher ups involved in 9-11. Palo does great work. As for LP shutting down a memorial was set up in Goldie's honor. See here www.libertypost.org/cgi-bin/index.cgi
#35. To: Jethro Tull, palo verde, 4 (#30)
Yes, she and her hubby Bill, RIP, removed themselves from the zoo over 25 years ago to Tucson. Like a cactus flower, she's still thriving there. I wish that she'd rejoin us, lod I never did get the transition from the Lower East Side to the Arizona dessert. Talk about culture shock.

I agree Lod. Always liked palo.
