[QUOTE="Shadoe's Lady, post: 1012349, member: 6490"] [b]Looks like it's over[/b] Well, we sent creepy guy the short email and he responded wanting to know what he'd done. While we were waiting to get everyone's input on a response, he started calling some people to try and get information. One person said he was sorry, but it was a group decision and he wasn't going to discuss it with him, and then directed him to ask another player for the details. That player wasn't home, so he never talked to him. The next day another one of the players (who set up our Yahoo group and has moderator functions) sent creepy guy an email telling him he was being removed from the Yahoo group and that as far as what he had done, it wasn't anything specific, that we felt uncomfortable around both him and his girlfriend and his attendance was unpredictable, so we'd rather not have him around. Creepy guy sent a couple of nasty emails to the people who sent the first two to him. He told off the guy who sent the "subtle" email, blasting him for not being up front with him. Then he sent one to the guy who sent the second email, accusing him of having talked the rest of us into ousting him from the group and telling him that we would all eventually find out what a jerk he was and leave him (including his wife). I'm not happy that he's trying to pin this all on one person after we repeatedly said it was a group decision and I'm not happy that he felt the need to get childish about it ("And as for your marriage I give you another five years tops before your wife gets tired of your s*** and leaves you so she can be happy"), but I think that's what he's trying to do is goad us into responding so he can keep the lines of communication open. Personally, I'm not into leaving that line open so he can dump his negativity on me-or any of us for that matter. If he thinks he's in the right, then there's nothing he has to do to punish us, our bad energy will do it for him. So, if those two emails are the end of the retaliation, then fine. It's a small price to pay to have my fun game and my peace of mind back. [/QUOTE]
