Implicit in your critique of Tele is the threat of him going ape-#hit...

He has already gone ape, many times during the last few days alone, on this very site.

Now, your idea of going ape and mine might be different, but there is little doubt that he has a tendency to overreact at the drop of a hat.  While that is no crime, the evidence supports the assertion (and he'd probably readily admit he has quite the temper).

As for the rest, that is your idea, not mine.

You guys are going to get another senseless thread locked!  

Is the he said/she said done yet?  

The Private Messages thread WAS Tele's initial fault. He was an aggressor when she asked a simple question, however Lua was admittedly enjoying the conflict and had repeatedly provoked him in the prior thread. I don't understand that. To me those types of threads are overall more agitating than enjoyable and it shows a certain sense of disregard for the discomfort of others. I don't know if it's enough to be banned but the conflict was never ending and CI loyalty goes to Tele, so the first, although not only, instigator is banned.

Maybe Lua can be unbanned at some point down the road when she wants to participate in other more constructive threads. It's not up to me of course but I'm throwing that out there as a possibility. For now, it's better they be separated, no matter how it went down. Tele wins by default because she is in his territory now. When he went to her territory, he got banned. To me it all evens out in the big picture.

Lua deserved to be banned as did every FE troll who registered or resurrected their account here just to publicly slander a regular CI poster. Neither her nor any of the FE trolls on that thread are capable of a fruitful and truly Traditional discussion as they are not Traditional Catholics but worldling liberals who, in their desire to be unique, say they prefer the TLM.

As MANY of us have attested countless times, these types are swine, so better to cut them off at the pass. I mean "spork"? Give me a break. Is this kindergarten?

Thank the Lord that Matthew keeps the forum running with a vast majority of truly Traditional posters.

Well, where' the fun in refraining, Izzy-belle???  I mean, you never know...

Those fishies can rile even the best up with their putrid sewage that they vomit from their orifice above their neck. I am usually calm and rarely post, but fishies get under my skin with their sick understanding of Catholic morality.

Well, what has happened cannot be changed.

For my part in disturbing the local peace, I beg everyone's pardon.

Tele, I am truly sorry for whatever pain and hardship you have had to endure as a result of the unfortunate situation at your former chapel.  As one who has been through something of a similar nature, I should have been more understanding and patient with you as you work through the various stages of the recovery process, if we may call it such.

My brother, may God grant you abundant grace to find and, over time, augment the peace you desire.  Pax tecuм, amigo.

It seems we all CAN just get along.

We should all just move on and stop talking about the people from FE before they start swarming in here again.

Guys!  I swear, I honestly found this place in the midst of a search of Catherine Anne Emmerich quotiations of Hell!

The fact I came in right as a half dozen other Fisheaters has gotta be coincidental!  (If not a coincidence, why would God allow me to witness the broo-ha-ha?  I wonder.  I dunno.)  

In any event, I'm hoping that reading material over here will be even further stimulating and hopefully edifying as I try to reach out to other Catholics.

I wonder why Catholic Answers Forum seems boring to me.
