And we irritated the hell out of some Peas. I think the next attempt to make a huge thread got pulled at a certain point.

A thread about Israel went 20+ pages on here already. I think Adam-Gate went 20 pages as well.

Wow, some harsh judging and name calling.
Benem I've always found you entertaining. I see no reason for all the hate. Best wishes.

Sure, but at the same time, it didn't say that originally and there's no indication the OP has been edited and even if there was, many people who are reading the new updates to this thread may have never seen that had you not mentioned it. Actually, when a post has been edited, it does say. The OP has not been edited. I'm confused by the editing claim, too. Granted, the OP wrote a confusing post (among other things, the word "here"). But in the context of explaining the chronology of our admin's actions, OP does say she's now pretty sure a Pea did not [fill in the blank], and regardless of who did [fill in the blank], "the Peas were used as a weapon." I took this to mean that information/text from this site was used in some fill-in-the-blank way. I happened to read it before there were any responses (!), and it seems unchanged now, although I could be wrong.

No, there is no confirmation. I don't think I like this thread much. I went back and read and saw nothing but people throwing out "theories" and then someone picking that up and running with it. By the end people are calling her a crazy nut job and talking about how much of a blowhard she has been.
Maybe she is, but maybe she's not.
I've always liked Benem/Mariah. I don't know if she likes me or not. I've always found her interesting and intelligent. What I DON'T like is quotes getting deleted by admin. That' seems to go quite against one of the 10 commandments of the pod "#4 'you know the rules'" and you get quoted for posterity.
Maybe I got lost somewhere in the thread but I don't think any quotes were deleted from this thread. I saw where the FPM offered to go back and delete the quotes from other threads for safety reasons.

Right and frequently when people edit their OP or add information to the OP, they change the title in the post to reflect that. Otherwise, I have no reason to go back and read the first post, now I just keep hitting the *NEW* button and it takes me to the first unread post all the way back here on page 12

I thought for the most part this thread remained fairly tame. MOST were expressing their concern and how dangerous it can be to.post personal info online. But also that thing were not adding up. I will be surprised if this thread goes away as the admin already said she didn't feel the need to. I still hold speculation on the truth of it, but it just reminds us as most of us have said to not get to personal. Will say again if it is true that OP is somewhere else, and does not get back on line.

I have two more pages to read, so maybe this has been addressed already, but: Sabrina, don't you dare try to lay that one at the feet of the liberals! We were limapea's first and continuing victims. Mrs. Tyler was a sidetrack for her. She may call herself a liberal, but she is a flaming wacko and we don't take responsibility for her. Actually, Theresa has been a flaming liberal, a flaming conservative and a flaming wacko...all in the same day. Surely you are not talking about me? If you are, please show me WTH you are referencing.

If you are, please show me WTH you are referencing. Limapea, Limapea2 and Redsomething or others real name was Theresa. She came on to Twopeas with all guns blazing in the hope of putting certain members in their place with her stunning and well reasoned posts. Yeah, that didn't go well I don't have a spreadsheet btw just a good memory for the crazy that was unleashed on a thread about handbags.

While I understand your concerns, you are an adult and the decision to post or not post is up to you and no one else. However, it is unrealistic and unfair to expect others to change their normal posting habits to protect you from yourself. Not everyone reads every thread or is aware of everyone's personal situation. If you make the choice to post something, you assume the possibility that someone else is going to quote you - that is simply the nature of internet message boards. If you are truly concerned that anything you post here may be used against you, the safest choice may be to not post at all. If you routinely over-share and then delete, make a habit of typing your post out in word or notepad first. Save it, do something else, then go back to it in a few minutes and read it critically, as though it were someone else's post. Then make the choice whether to post as is, edit, or just not post it at all. Sometimes just typing your thoughts out can help you process things in your own mind. If you delete this account and user name, consider using a disposable or throwaway e-mail address for a new account - nothing that is associated with any of your other online activities or your regular e-mail account. I wish you safety and peace of mind. Very wise advice!!

I pmailed with Benem several times over the past few days. I'm only repeating what she herself has said here, so I apologize if this is still too cryptic.
Something did happen that was pretty miserable for her. She didn't know who was behind it at first, and was very frightened and asked to have everything deleted. Now, she thinks she knows who was responsible and it is not the kind of situation she first thought it could be. The damage is already done. This new thread wasn't going to make it worse.
Her threads were clearly stated as being written for entertainment and Mr. Darcy is a friend. From what she told me, he is still a friend and her scare had nothing to do with him. I don't think it had anything to do with the Craigs List guy either, FWIW.
There's actually a pretty good reason for her request to admin, and I think she started this thread to tell people it turned out to be a different situation than what she first thought it was.
Not everyone here would have reacted the same way she did, but her reactions were not as crazy as this thread is making her sound.

Not sure what the point of this "update" was.

It's not an "update." It's a "this makes more sense than it appears."
You call it parroting. Whatever. Benem gave me more specific info and that is for her to put out here if she so chooses. It ties everything together and I feel bad for her.
Believe she's crazy or believe you just don't know enough of the story for it to make sense. Not my circus, not my monkeys.

I am not sure what the point is of drawing this board into her drama. But it would appear that she is here reading all of this if she is exchanging pmail. So much for laying low and staying off the internet. I hope she doesn't overshare anymore of the specifics. After reading the link to the thread on the old board she engages in risky behavior on the internet and has brought the crazy to her door. Starting this thread is just another example of it.
