@magicmoodz   To finally put this to rest so it doesn't follow me to new site: I will never be computer savvy like so many here. At that time, very long ago, I would not and could not post pics of myself nor would I be comfortable posting any of myself now. Someone asked about my hair style. Jane, whoever on Pinterest, had the exact hair style. I posted her photo w/ the face covered (if I can remember that long ago) and went on with what DH and I did that evening. In your mind and a few others, that's a capital offense that you won't let go. You get pleasure bringing it up and chastising me for something as simple as not being willing to put MY face on social media. Would you post yours and how many others here may have used pics of other people, outfits they never purchased, stories that were never true or pics of themselves that were actually someone else w/ no explanation? We'll never know, right?

Please leave me alone with this benign issue. It's been so many years ago! No one finds it so vital as a few posters. Just let it go!!!

@Shanus 

But you said it was a photo of  you.  You never said it was a model.  You said your husband took the photo of YOU.  Why  not just say it's not me, but this is what my hair looks like.  

It will never be put to rest because you were never truthful about it and still to this day deny it.

@Bri369   That's it. You guys obviously are bullies and will not let it go. I'm done! You got your wish.

All the good posts, threads here are forgotten for one mistake?

@Shanus 

In my world an out and out lie is not a mistake. And to assume the picture of a real person is illegal.

And why did you specifically call me out for a post that was written by Trinity 11?  I merely suggested it be read again.

But since you did, I believe you posted another picture you claimed to be you, even though you say you would never do that. Would you like me to go find it real quick?😆😆😄

@Shanus 

A mistake is not intentional, IMO.  You carried on the charade until you got caught.  LOL

So the imposter and chronic fabricator Shanus has some guidelines for others.  Made up career, lifting images of others to use as their own.  Will the charade continue on the new board?   

The poster Shanus posted pictures of other women lifted from the Internet and claimed them for her own.  Joan Kaminow in particular was the most recognizable, including a long drawn out story to go with it to further engage readers.

Very doubtful anyone who knew about all these activities would allow themselves to be cultivated or come to the defense of someone catfishing on the q board for years.

Hi @persiflage  - I was looking for you on the proboards.  Have you registered?

@dooBdoo, As usual, you are a voice for calm and unity.

How wonderful it would have been if some folks had tried harder to reflect that in these series of posts.  My personal experience, compounded with what I saw today, leaves me lacking in confidence.  It really doesn’t matter, as I am kind of a loner, floating around here and there.  I am hoping to get back to the volunteer work I loved after this pandemic is over.

Sending hugs to you!

Thank you, @PamfromCT.   I'm sorry you feel that way about the thread in general, since my reaction has been that posters simply are expressing concern based on certain histories some are aware of but others are not.  We aren't all here at the same times, we don't all see the same threads or posts, so our experiences vary.  Emotions are running high for reason upon reason upon reason, and I suppose that's reflected in the manner in which we post sometimes.

You and I are pals from 'way back and I don't want to lose you!   I hope we can stay in touch.   Thanks for the (((hugs)))...   sending them to you, too.❤️

It has me choked up! There's 6 of us that have put all of our energy into the past few days. For no reason other than we wanted a place to keep the communications going  that have meant so much to us. 

Posts like yours @dooBdoo makes me so happy that we did! 💕

---

Well, I don't want you to be choked up, but I write from my heart, @Mellyg.   And in this case from my heart to yours.   Hang in there, and please remember to take time out for yourself.❤️

Dear friend, @catwhisperer.   You hold a special place in my heart.   Love you, too, girl.  I hope we don't have to say goodbye.   Please take good and gentle care of yourself, okay?❤️

[catwhisperer]

@dooBdoo ....well, looks like we won't have to say good-by after all.
