Vintagetvgirl (Cindy) was accused of being Dorothy over a month ago and banned. She has proven to me her real identity with 100% certainty. I'm sorry there was a rush to judgment in this case. Let it be a lesson learned, don't make any assumptions without knowing all the facts first.

I knew it all along. I do think it was all a misunderstanding. I think what it was was that I think she had AOL and with that ISP, the IP changes every time the person logs on. Dorothy also had AOL. In some cases, sometimes two or more people happen to share the same IP during a session. I'm pretty sure that's what happened in this case with Dorothy and Cindy.

I think another lesson that should be learned is that if anybody has a question about IP addresses, ask TJ or PB. Believe me, they know a lot more about the subject than I do. I was being asked about this case before the accusation and, to be honest, I was busy at the time and I only told the person asking me what I said because I didn't want to be bugged about it and that the person should have asked TJ about it instead of me.

Thanks Brian and TJ. :D I just hope that others feel the way you two do. :)

That's great.How is your other cat?

Louise is fine. She has two really big knots in her fur that are very close to her skin. We can't take her to the vet to get them off because they would have to sedate her and that would cost a lot of money. One of my sisters managed to get a few knots out of her.

I think Louise is scared of Oscar (My kitten). Whenever I bring her in the house to see Oscar, she growls and hisses at him whenever he approaches her. He is very curious about Louise. I think when we bring her inside, she'll get used to him.

Oscar is just the cutest thing. I posted a picture of him a while back. Everyone who has seen him has done nothing but adore him and go, "Awww."

:blush: I feel really stupid, Im sorry Cindy.:)

Cindy im really sorry this happened to you, i know what its like to be in that situation. after you got accused i read some of your posts and i was having my doubts about you being doroth**** because you seemed alot more intelligent than her.

welcome back :grr:

Thanks,you all.It's going to take some time for things to feel right,again.I still can't believe anyone could mistake me for Dorothy.What an insult!! :eek: :(

Im sorry that happened Cindy. Welcome back.

I am happy to hear that you are back Cindy...Welcome...:wave:

I'm not Dorothy either, right?

;)

I'm sorry about the misunderstanding Cindy. Welcome back. I've missed you. :)

Welcome back to the board you call pathetic and lame :wave:


I'm not starting a fight, just saying hello :)

Barnabas, you were the one largely responsible for getting her banned in the first place.. hope you've apologized to her.

Yeah and why did she wait so long to prove she wasn't Dorothy? Why did she decide to come back when Holly put 'gone' as her user title just a few days ago. It's just weird to me.

Maybe because of the treatment she received from her so called friends. I think I would feel the same way, a bit shocked and hurt and would need time to get over it. Imagine yourself getting banned on multiple boards and having everybody just ignore you one day. She probably thought nobody would believe her. How would you feel?

You can believe what you want, but I believe she is completely innocent.. and I have undeniable proof.

We can prove she isn't Dorothy if you are game. Here is a website that is very correct on the state you come from, put Cindy's IP in it and see if it comes up with Virginia like she says she lives in. Jenny, Holly, and I tried it and it is correct on the state we live in. If Cindy's IP is from New Jersey than that is a very strong clue she is Dorothy. If it doesn't than I will drop this.

Oh yeah, about that, Dorothy's IP comes from NJ. She's not from Texas like she says.

You need to read up on ip addresses because AOL doesn't work that way. None of you have AOL as far as I know.

I will try and find the post where Dorothy and Cindy posted on the same thread at the exact same minute on different ip addresses. That will prove you wrong once and for all.

Cool site lol. Though I don't live in Roseville, I don't know why it has that.

Sorry for accusing you of being Dorothy Cindy. Really, I am.

Damn, I'm confused. :lol: Sorry that happened Cindy.

^ See, and this is the reason TJ frowns upon banning people with AOL accounts.

Stop being a suck up. You agree with whatever someone says.

Gotta disagree with you there. I think Brian has a mind of his own, and frequently offers opposing opinions. He's well-mannered and says things in a polite and non-combative fashion, so perhaps it seems as if he's agreeable about everything, but that's not the case at all.

Janice you are very nice, but I think Cathy knows what she is talking about here.

Wow. I'm sorry that you had to go through this.

FYI I didn't say what I posted just because TJ said it. I didn't just think of what I deduced right when he posted this thread. I came to this conclusion long before he said anything. That was several weeks ago.

So you knew Dorothy was NOT Cindy, and didn't tell anyone. You seem to know a lot that can help Brian, but never tell anyone. Why are you even moderator if you wont help TJ? I'm not starting a fight, I swear TJ.

I know that. But it seems, with everything that has gone on lately, you take the popular opinion. You at first weren't sure about Brandon, I told you to think whatever you wanted to about him, and then suddenly you hate him too. Just seems less than subtle.

In the case with Brandon I didn't know what was going on until I saw an IM on my computer. That day I was doing yard work and was being paid by the hour. I didn't have time to listen to his side of the story and I was getting restless because he was going on and on. The reason I agreed with you and everyone else about Brandon was because I knew you are not the kind of person that would lie and falsely smear someone. You're not. I've been here long enough to know that you wouldn't do something like that to a person. That's what influenced my opinion. It wasn't because I was agreeing with the popular vote. It was because I knew that you were not the kind of person to lie about someone.

It's pretty sad that an apology thread is turning into a fight. ohno:

I'm sorry about the misunderstanding, too. Welcome back, Cindy. :wave:

PROOF THAT TJ CAN'T START A THREAD WITHOUT IT TURNING INTO A FIGHT. GOOD JOB, YOU GUYS!

I really wish all the little fighting between Barnabas and Brian would stop - I've spoken to both of them about it several times but it never stops...
