PDA

View Full Version : No Mystery, it's just Sidney

So I received a private message from someone ( I won't say who, but you know who you are, a female) accusing me of having a new identity.
So apparently there must be some kind of gossip accusing me of having a new identity. Well, I don't. I am still Sidney, and for personal reasons I have chosen to not post for a while.
While I have received friendly messages from friends who have genuine concern for my well being (Love and thanks to those of you), I am publicly reassuring anyone who thinks I am posting here in disguise. Simply put, it AINT me.

I am ill, and there is too much chaos and drama in the forums and I simply choose to be silent. I am sure the staff here can very easily find out where someone is posting from, so if anyone has any suspicions, well its not rocket science finding an IP.

Now, back to my nap.:lazy::lazy::lazy:

Hi, Sidney — good to hear from you. :)

I'm not aware of any such gossip myself, by the way... it sounds like just one person's idea. That will pass very quickly. But by way of setting this to rest, I can confirm that Sidney's IP address is unique on this forum.

we are multi-personal beings in a single body and behind a single IP ,so why it would be, in any way,a guilty thing to have 2 or (many)more accounts ? (Theoretically lol)
Be well my distant friend ,that matters to me also ,when you are on your feet ,everything else values as mutch as this

I am pretty sure it is against Avalon policy. People can and do get banned for that. Just sayin.:cat:

Ah! A joke. :)

It's not the very best joke... it's a sensitive subject sometimes when someone's been falsely accused of a deception.

(And multiple accounts — known as 'sockpuppets' — are a dishonest deception: in theory, the right hand could be talking up a storm with their left hand, all on one thread, with no-one else participating, all with the illusion of debate and agreement when in fact there's no-one else in the room. That'd be deception. :) )

on behalf of the 50 percent who are female,
*fidget shuffle gulp*

:)

;)

<---- too ADHD to notice if people don't announce illness/vacation!
for example if people had it in their signature (which is a nice large advertising space *cough cough*) "on vacation/away ill"

we would definitely be interested in sending prayers/etc and going easy when arguments are had (i.e. my recent disagreement in channeling section with a member who had cancer -- i had no idea about the cancer!! these things can be useful to know when we are all interacting)

we could go on and on but people don't like labels...

which is why the username "useful idiot/ useless eater" always made me laugh (a member on another site lmao).
that person had a great sense of humor/pun :)


when stress runs high our interpretation of nuance and humor can change dramatically!
why even last week CNN was claiming, the human body is so sensitive that even things like Tylenol can disrupt our emotional processes.
imagine what modern humans are exposed to w/ all the radiation, noise, light, crowding, poisoning, etc.


I hope you start feeling better, and don't forget you can nap outdoors early in the morning and early evening without much sunburn.
it's good for you! i need to do it more like i told the lady in the chronic fatigue thread,

i lied and said we'd both get out more this year ;/

Hello, All:

I'd like to announce the solution to this little mystery.

I've just been contacted by a member (and Sidney, I've just PMed you) who was a little upset about this simple misunderstanding, because she had simply replied to congratulate you on your 'new identity' (your own words) after you had written — quite a long time ago!
I have given myself a new name and a new avatar (still tossing around avatar ideas), to start a new chapter in my life.

This member had just returned to the forum after a long break, and was reading all her old PMs... from really quite a while back. It looks like you had clean forgotten (and this is understandable!) what you had announced to a number of people about your new choice of username at that time.

(I'm combing my own memory, and Paul will be able to dig up more details from the records, but I think this that username change was maybe a couple of years ago or more.)

Case closed. I'm delighted this is all resolved. :)

I appreciate your clarification Rachel. I did look up his cancer thread and saw that you thanked it on March 17, 2013 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?57042-From-my-heart-to-yours-a-request-to-help-a-member-given-6-months-to-live..&p=649847&viewfull=1#post649847). I surmised much had gone on in your life that you forgot. Cancer or not, like a carpenter friend of mine says, "measure twice, cut once" is a good rule of thumb in most cases.

One solution is the thread called, Message Board: Avalonians Request Our Help (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?72502-Message-Board-Avalonians-Request-Our-Help&p=951016&viewfull=1#post951016) where anyone can post current concerns and updates.

A suggestion is to bookmark the thread. Instructions on how and how to look it up the most recent post in your news feed see post #22 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?66104-How-to-Tips-with-Visuals-for-Links-Quotes-Images-etc.&p=847929&viewfull=1#post847929).

Ok, wow, am I embarrassed!!!! I created a new identity way back sometime in 2013 and mailed everyone on my friends list a little note letting them know about it, as I had a good reason to not make a public statement. This was a different identity I had briefly before I became Sidney. I had completely forgotten about it, needless to say a LOT has gone on in the last 2 years, and several months ago when I backed off of my participation here there was some drama going on on not just this forum but other forums as well, so of course having the suspicious mind that i do, I thought the note was an accusation or sorts. Anyway, to the author of that message, I owe you a huge public apology even though your name has not been disclosed, from the bottom of my heart I'm sorry for the misunderstanding( but two years? LOLOL). And to everyone else, I am sorry for this. And MODS, perhaps we can close the thread and either delete it or put it in a nice dark storage locker, along with my forgotten identity.:drum::peep:
