I just don't appreciate the posted innuendo.
Somebody says something out of the blue and gets applauded for it. No explanation?
Not nice at all.
Under this circumstances i will not post here at all.

I am sorry that this has happened to you.

This is why I invited you to join us where we were chatting, and I understand, and agree, it isn't right how you were made to feel (this has happened before in different ways).

I hope that other people will say something and salvage this situation.

I did not chat with you.

Hi pacer. ;)

This is where it started.
Not nice.
Uncalled for.
And rude.

Come on over to the chatting spot, Alberta.

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=12860&p=168602#p168602



Hi Alberta,

The above is a link, which I shared (it is on the previous page) where we were chatting about wildlife. I was being inclusive and inviting you to join in, of which, of course, I still invite you to join in.

It is understandable that you missed it, I understand, this is all new.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas.

Hi, looked in for a second now here.
It might be new or maybe the standard here to welcome new members this way.
Still it is not nice and makes me not want to participate here really.

No, it isn't the 'standard' way to greet new members.

For some reason, it was thought that you were a previous member [who left under a cloud] coming back with a new username.

Don't know why some made that assumption.

As I posted before, you are warmly welcome !

Maybe i am "burned "by this experience here so far and the "funny" comments by at least two members.
But are you sure the part i quoted from you wasn't slightly tongue in cheek?

Ok. Thank you in this case.
The second nice, besides of the one from Mountain Mist (although i was not getting her message completely with the link etc.) , post here towards me.
The rest offended me in a way - because the joke was on me for reasons i still don't understand.

The rest?

You were welcomed. If you'd like to continue, please do.

Well obviously I didn't get it, otherwise I wouldn't have asked, so in that respect I'd suggest you didn't make clear what you meant.

You said "The second nice (referring to Colin's post), besides of the one from Mountain Mist (although i was not getting her message completely with the link etc.) , post here towards me.

The rest offended me in a way - because the joke was on me for reasons i still don't understand."

Within half an hour of your first post I said "Welcome Alberta, and I hope you enjoy it here." I'd say that was the first nice, wouldn't you? Was that offensive?

Mountain Mist welcomed you.

ColinB and WalterHaleJnr welcomed you. Were they offensive?

So let me say it again, Welcome Alberta, and I hope you enjoy it here.

We are a friendly bunch. Occasionally there's a little flare up, but it's very rare. There's a lot of banter and humour and sometimes teasing. If you're a highly sensitive person, thin skinned, or lacking a sense of humour, you will either not engage with certain people, or you won't like it here.

However, give it a go, see how you get on. You never know, you might like it, or you might wander off, or if you don't fit in here and go upsetting people, you'll be banned. If it turns out that you're someone else that's already been banned three times, masquerading as alberta sheffield, you'll be banned again. But I have no reason to suspect that you're that person. It's all pretty simple, isn't it?

I hope I have made clear what I mean.

So, have a nice time.

It's not hard to understand,
The first person called me a previous member and you gave him a "thank you".
The second one did hint what the first person did.
That throwed me off a little for a start -cause I was not "in" on such things.
That's what I meant.
No more no less.

The first person was me. I welcomed you. You thanked me.

The next person was the one you refer to as the first person. I thanked him for his naughty sense humour which you may or may not have been privy to. I just wonder why you're suspicious about what he said?

Then Mountain Mist welcomed you, and invited you to the chat area.

Then Rickeap stated that he was confused.

Then Colin welcomed you.

Then the one you claim was the second one, Private Presley, who in fact was the sixth person, said that he hoped you enjoy the Photo section. How did he hint anything related to what the second person, who you claim was the first, said?

I hope you're enjoying yourself here.
