I really wasn't going to post on this one but I just have to so I have a spot in the history of this board. I was rather surprised about the personal stuff she posted about this guy at work. I thought she was definitely opening herself up to some harassment issues but I also thought it all sounded too contrived to be true. It read like someone drafting a romance novel. I just figured she was trying story lines out for some fiction she was considering writing. Add in the Craig's list stuff and I really think she is just playing everyone and using what she posts either for her own personal craziness or as some kind of research. And for the record, while I don't easily buy into this kind of stuff, I really resent someone doing this purposely to people on this board who truly have expressed care and concern for this person's safety. That's low, really low. Quoting you because your first sentence says it for me. I read this whole thing today, only a little bit of the previous Darcy stuff. I know of the previous names and stuff from this multi-pager. I am now caught-up. Might never be able to say that again hahaha. I hope the poster concerned will be OK, but I also hope we were not played.

Well, I have clearly missed a LOT, so I will be going back and reading this whole thread to try and catch up. I also missed all the Mr. Darcy stuff, so I will have to accept the fact that I may never know what that was all about...I'm always late to the drama

Let's not forget about the bloke on the motorbike who had the hots for her. What a narrow escape he had.

Wow! Really....Wow! It's taken me longer to read this post than it did for my steel cut oatmeal to cook and that's saying something.
After all my years frequently this board and others, I'm still totally surprised by this. Guess I shouldn't be.
And, now back to my oatmeal.

Wait....Benem is Mariah and Mariah2??? What?? How did I miss that?? ::slaps forehead::
I know I can't read every thread, but I remember Mariah well. And well, with PJaye's summary (thank you by the way!), I think I have connected the dots. I didn't before, but now it makes sense.
I have nothing more to add except that this place is positively entertaining and THIS is exactly why it is so good we all found a new home for our own brand of craziness.

Wow - lots of drama this weekend! I have questions about some of the things mentioned here. First off - someone contacted Mrs. Tyler's employer? Really? When did this happen and did anyone figure out who it was? That is completely unbelievable to me (not that I am doubting the story - but WHO does that???)

All she sdeven, lynlam, skybar etc have to say is "boo" and the vitriolic harassment follows.

When did this happen and did anyone figure out who it was? That is completely unbelievable to me (not that I am doubting the story - but WHO does that???) I believe it was not that long ago- say in the last 6 months of the old board. A member with a screenname starting with "L" who seemed to be a new-ish pea started racking up post counts and making enemies. She got banned, created a new name/ added 2 to the old one and was quite open about the fact that she contacted the pea in question's boss. Wiser peas than me thought she was a longer-term pea with a new name. One of her best bodies of work was on a thread about fairly pricey handbags, she took on a very well known pea (who has very recently passed away) then it was ON! Does that help? Don't want to name names, but don't want to be too vague either.

There was a thread here where someone admitted to doing it. Clearly I failed as a spreadsheet Pea, because I can't remember who it was and I don't keep a spreadsheet...

I think I must have been asleep for quite some time and not realized it I don't remember reading half of these threads mentioned on here. I remember the one about the scottish/irish blokes accent, the motor bike one and Mr Darcy. I just thought they were a bit of fun. I vaguely remember the name Mariah2 from the old board but that's about it really. Gosh! this thread has been " interesting"

A moments googling show that benem has a long history of this posting and then regretting malarkey, under various names, including mariah and mariah2 on the old bucket. If I was admin, my finger would be hovering over the 'ban this user permanently' button. But it wouldn't hover for long. Benem was Mariah?

I think the reason I miss all this drama going down is that I hate nonsense. So, when the Mr. Darcy nonsense started I couldn't bear to read the threads. I found them to be the sad delusions of a lonely woman than anything else.

Wow. I didn't read any of the Mr. Darcy threads but after reading all 8 pages here, I just have to ask how old is benem? She certainly sounds very immature and seems to have a lot of fantasy-thinking.

Sigh..I can't figure out whether to be annoyed or amused . I mean if she is making up all of those stories for attention , why now would she ruin all of the fun to the point where she claims to be threatened? She won't be welcome here and here stories will ever be accepted.
Op, your stories were fun and entertaining . I don't even mind if they were fictional because they had great entertainment value. When you start pretending you are being threatened it crosses a line. I'm calling it all bullshit. I have better things to do.
