Feminists

Did I once ever claim you made these statements? No, I did not. For some reason you're taking this part personally when it was never intended to be personal. It is a statement of facts.

Did I not read a comment that eludes to that? Yes, in fact, I read two--both of which were replies to you but not made by you, not a distinction I ever made.



Emphasis mine: How am I supposed to take that comment that I bolded? On third reading, I can take it one of two ways; that something was going on in the background the poster didn't want to come to fruition (of course, what that could be, I'll never know) or, let's rush this through so there isn't time for something else to 'bear fruit'...

Maybe I perceived those statements incorrectly but, it is a perception and that's how I perceived those comments.

There were a lot of you in that thread that didn't want to wait on elections. Other's that pleaded patience were told they were making the process too difficult, the situation had to be rectified right then and there. Heck, look at post #41, "VOTE NOW!" Some folks didn't want to wait the three days you suggested.

Don't get upset with me because I felt it fair to wait a bit longer, so all members had a chance to participate. What real harm would have waiting 4 more days done? None that I can see. To me it seemed (there's that pesky perception thing again) there was a rush to get back to the status quo and it was obvious to me that wasn't going to turn out well.

I stand by my point: 3 days was not enough time to hold a FAIR election that allowed all members (prior to that day) to vote. Whether we voted within 3 days or waited another 4, we already had those 30 new members.
