Well... kinda hard to forget when people make allegations and innuendos and then won't put thier money where their mouths are.

I asked two questions above and have no replies... yet.

I asked my accuser, many times, over two years ago to provide me a copy of the document I was alledged to have copied, altered and sent... I still have not received it.

So, it's kinda hard to hear peeps join in the crap long afterward... and come just shy of naming names, especially when they were not party to any of it and have no proof of anything they "apparently alledge."

Thank God I missed all of this. I hadn't stopped into Mudchat for a couple of months, simply because my summer has been extremely busy. I'm sorry to hear that all of this has happened. It's been a long time since the sewer days of Martin Gibson, and I must say I've never missed them. I've innocently gone into Mudchat a few times in the last week or so, and people have e-mailed me saying that they'd noticed I was there but were too uncomfortable to come in. What a shame. Max gives us this gift out of the goodness of his heart and some people have missused it so grossly that they have destroyed it.

Just to make this a music thread,

"You better come on in my kitchen
You know it's going to be raining outdoors"

It's still sunny around the kitchen table.

Ahhhh... NOBODY should AVOID Mudchat.

Fact is, now that everyone knows it can be "read back", I am sure it will be pleasant... as it was the last time I was in.

I am in the same position as gnu ! Demanded proof of allegations many times to No avail ! But sadly , other Non Involved people seem to believe the stories !
To the best of my knowledge , the only thing I have done that may have upset someone was to NOT volunteer Transport from a location in london at a time when I was on a Driving ban !
If any one has any other information . please let the world know .
And I May well be In Chat later tonight !

Well, I'm in Mudchat and it's not all dark and spooky. As a matter of fact, it's all white. Like Lennon's Imagine video.

I just had a wonderful conversation with Skarpi and Bernde, my northern connection. I'd never crossed paths with Bernde, or had any real conversation with Skarpi. It was delightful.

Don't let the past haunt you, no matter how much you've been hurt. Let the dead bury the dead. I think it's safe to come out now.

Two observations and a question

Unless a login is misappropriated there should be no confusion or *false allegations* by the recipient about the identity of anyone who has sent a PM. The authorship can be in no doubt although his or her motives and intent may not be so obvious.

If anyone is copying wholesale chunks of informal conversation and they are then subsequently distributed to others by PM I would imagine that mudchat was, at least, an uneasy place to be in and, at worst, potentially threatening. There are occasions on the forum when a remark is misinterpreted [sometimes almost deliberately] and for any remark in chat to be taken in isolation from its context there may be a danger of malicious misrepresentation to a third party.

Why is this in the music section?

It is, of course, wrong to do this - even without alteration and irrespective of what is being said.

Wrong? I was not aware of that. I was covering my ass.
