Muscatine

100%

i agree!!!!

SUPPORT from Chosen & others

I have to admit, I was nervous about coming to this site tonight & seeing my responses to Chosens post. I expected to be made fun of, jokes & put downs. The posts were quite the opposite. Thanks to all who posted.
You guys are awesome, you showed your allegience to our town and to this site. United we can all stand.
I love the jokes posted & have laughed & shared many of them! I appreciate reading what is important to others in our town, locally & nationally.
It frustrates me TO NO END when I read a heartfelt post, then read replies that don't address the original post. The answers @ times are hurtful, demeaning & many times have absolutely nothing to do with the original post. They are words that are meant to hurt.
I have a question that is real? Why would anyone post under different names? You are who you are. Don't you believe in your own convictions? Why would you want to change your identity? I don't get it. I really don't. I'm tlou. I care about our town. I want this town to be the best it can be so that my children & grandchildren can grow up & declare with pride, that they grew up in Muscatine. A beautiful, river town with old fashioned values, that protected them & instilled values that will make them the beautiful souls they can be. ''It takes a village, (a neighborhood?) to raise a child''.
Some of our children are reading these posts. So are people that are thinking about moving to our town. Then again, there are many that live in our town that need support, would like to contribute, but are afraid to, because of the negative jabs.
What do we want to portay to our own children & to the world? What is this board about? My ''pie in the sky wish?'' We have people that have the time & care enough to share what is happening the world with us. THANK YOU! There are some that want to share humor; to help us remember to laugh. THANK YOU!
Can we think positive? I do & I think this board could be that way as well.

The reason for one person using many names to post under is quite simple. They want their usual name to come across as rational and informative and then they use various alter egos to splash vial and crud. Sadly many that do this use some form of verbage and such that gives them away and do not realize it.

Exactly, logic!



You are correct. The other justification they use multiple id's is to make their argument seem stronger with more opinions.

Most of them eventually screw up or are otherwise outted by mistakes they post.

Two of them that I know of always mispelled the same word over and over; making it too obvious.

RP, of the davis variety, finally admitted to the many user names they were all using back when davieboy was in his hiatus from this site.
