I only posted on one thread during a period of two days in the last four or five years in the Annexe. Probably a total of five or six posts in all that time. I have not made more than a couple dozen posts total in the entire time the Annexe existed. So how I can be described as having posted there endlessly (or even hatefully) is beyond me, but I think is a very good example of how vicious the rumor mill is here in the Mudcat.

The Annexe was started in order to provide some relief to the endless fighting over music or BS that was present in the Mudcat before the split between music and BS was made, as we can see here in this post from the Annexe's creator...

The Folkinfo site was created after the Annexe. After about a year, the Annexe was given to the mother of its creator, and the focus shifted from being Mudcat oriented, to being oriented to her socializing with her friends, and this change coincided with the creation of the Folkinfo site, as we can see in this post from the Annexe's creator...

Some people (myself included) were unaware of this shift in focus.

The original owner of the Annexe explained that the reason the site was shut down was because the current owner felt a bit invaded by the people from the mudcat who only posted to that site to complain about the Mudcat being down (something I have not ever done even once, myself), and he said that the thread in which I participated recently was only the last straw.

It would seem to me that the only purveyor of hate in this case, is the one who is trying to spread vicious rumors and lies about me and a couple of other good people.

Why the hateful attack above should have been posted in this thread is also above me.
