Don, if you cannot sign up over there, maybe you can find one of our members who already has a Frothers account to be a spokesperson?

Seems to me this spokesmen thing is like being sent over the wall by Col Travis.

So no, I'm not ok with Armintrout exclusively hiring Asian transvestites to edit the site. I'm against the general effort to "normalize" what I see to be a form of mental illness. So I'm not down with his other site and it's agenda. It's the reason that on the handful of occasions I have needed to, I refuse to use the pronoun "she" when referring to an editor.

I have heard from a number of people who want to debate concerning transexuals. TMP is not the appropriate venue for that. Please adjourn to our sister side, The Blue Fez: thebluefez.com

And now the Law of Unintended Consequences goes into effect.

Personally I consider religion to be a form of mental illness. I guess it is a good thing neither of us are psychiatrists.

Similarly, if you want to debate religion, please adjourn to our sister site… grin

Another point-of-view might be that the vast majority of Frothers and TMPers don't have a problem.

Bingo

I have a suggestion.

How about another board or site where the people who seem to be impacted or offended between the two sites can go try to and reason it out leaving just miniatures topics on The MINIATURE Page.

Then after the one or two dozen of you are all pooped out come back and tell us all about how this was resolved.

I have worked as a mental health nurse for fourteen years in various locations. In those years I have never witnessed nor heard of, from fellow nurses/doctors of anyone receiveing treatment for mental health issues on the grounds of them being either transexual or a transvestite. Hope this helps, Dave.

My dear old mum says "If you scratch it you won't get better".

Somehow seems appropriate.

Its one thread on frothers, it rambles all over the place then returns to TMP every so often.

Im a member there; its a different experience. I dont post so much there as its more figure than game orientated but theres some clever and jolly decent folk do post there.
It can also be unbelievably funny and Ive picked up words that are now part of my daily vocabularly – Thanks Frothers!

Different sites, different atmospheres – no need for TMP to define itself as Not Frothers, or vise versa, come to that.

L Mike will be back. What's the Vegas betting line on how many more times? It all depends on how many Sybil accounts he has stockpiled.
I would say he has ….. 5 more.

Oh well. We all need a hobby. His is trolling with compound complex sentences and baroque naughty words.
Dear Editor in Chief's hobby is playing Wack-a-mole.

So why not give peace a chance. Maybe just maybe we can all calm down and find the things we have in common, like enjoying the same hobby?????

Not trying to be inflammatory but what is the point of deleting a post then quoting from it?

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian07 May 2015 9:10 p.m. PST

Well, I did delete it… but thought perhaps his point would be useful if the troll sees it.

Why does this whole idea about building bridges where probably none really need be built reminds me of Verdun ?
