1330.1What's Happening???LDP::BANGMAWed May 04 1988 12:596
    Karen-
    
    What is happening that "scares" away your roommates?  Is it
    really because of your cats?  What are they doing or is it
    that the roommate(s) doesn't prefer cats?
    
1330.3Sure, I can be scary!!JAWS::COTEAliens ate my Buick...Wed May 04 1988 15:323

1330.7From Silver to Bandit57915::HTAYLORCat lovers are a special breedWed May 04 1988 17:549
    Hey Bandit,
    	What does Karen mean, no more shredding?  Didn't you follow
    my advice and start using your teeth?  I use my teeth all the time
    (even though I do still have my claws) and it works GREAT!  So far
    I have shredded two whole rolls of paper towels and have emptied
    umpteen boxes of kleenex for mom!  Get with it, Kid!  Use your TEETH!

1330.8CHARGE FOR `ANTICS'AIMHI::OFFENWed May 04 1988 21:1110
    Karen,
    
    If you started charging people for the `privilege of reading "Bandits
    Latest Antics" you wouldn't need a roomate.
    
    Sandi
    
    P.S.  Haven't seen any new antics lately.  Is he slowing down??

1330.11What happened?GRECO::MORGANDoris Morgan DTN 223-9594Wed May 11 1988 03:153
    May I ask what happened to the original note (.0)?  I'm missing
    it and some of the replies.  Have no idea what's going on...very
    confusing!
1330.12off the top of my head...INDEBT::TAUBENFELDAlmighty SETWed May 11 1988 16:2412
    
    Hmm, that was Karen Luby's note and I know she replied, maybe they
    are also Karen Luby's replies that are deleted.
    
    Now that I think of it, I haven't seen any of Karen Luby's notes
    since that flaming with one of the moderators.  Perhaps Karen deleted
    some (all???) of her notes in anger?

1330.13YupEDUC8::TRACHMANWed May 11 1988 16:4515
     Yes Sharon, they were Karen's notes and I believe that only 
     she can delete her own notes.
    
     Boy, I wish people wouldn't flame at moderators.  I think that
    they work pretty hard keeping us in notes files.  I also think
    that they have the right to express themselves (which they don't
    often do probably because they ARE moderators and feel that they
    should be neutral observers). 
    
    I felt badly that a newcomer to the notesfile had to come in at
    that time, but we all have the right to go off our feed occasionally.
    Hope that the new noter will try again soon.  We seem to be back
    on course again.
    
    E.T.

     >Yes Sharon, they were Karen's notes and I believe that only 
     >she can delete her own notes.

    Well technically, so can a moderator (no accusations here).  I did
    a dir/author=luby *.* and came up with plenty, up until May 9th,
    so it seems Karen did not delete all her notes.  I don't know why
    she deleted her basenote and replies, as of yesterday at least she
    had not found a roommate as she was still posting her roommate needed
    note in Classified.
    
     > Boy, I wish people wouldn't flame at moderators.
    
    Ummm, I'm not going to get into a fight about who started the flaming,
    but let's just say that it would be nice if people wouldn't flame
    at people in general.  But I doubt that will ever stop, I myself
    am to blame for a few.

1330.16Please Karen, Don't go away!58019::HTAYLORHave you hugged your kitty today?Wed May 11 1988 17:1812
    It is really auful that we have driven Karen away.  I for one really
    enjoyed her notes about Bandit and T.K..  In fact, I remember replying
    to a few that Silver had done the same thing, and I CERTAINLY don't
    neglect my kitties.  
    
    Karen, I don't think that it was Deb that set the note no/write.
    There are two moderators to this conference.  That note should have
    been set no/write much sooner.  There is was no reason for the flaming
    that went on.  You're right Karen, some people do jump to conclusions.
