I can’t wait to meet you all! I will be there with ALL the bells on (just not as a vendor) 🩷
Oh yayyy!! How fun!!
I’m so excited. I can’t wait to meet you in person.
Shoot I wish I could go! Lol
Aww, now I want to come for a visit just for that! ![]()
Bumping this. Though it hardly seems worthwhile, as the comments have been edited. I guess it was all a misunderstanding, as some of us thought that the reason somebody didn’t want to attend it would be because of racism. Honestly, I hadn’t even thought of S and J O for an awfully long time, so they didn’t even cross my mind. That being said, if they DID show up, I think we’re all grown enough to just ignore them. It’s a public event, after all.
I don’t know why it would be so controversial to express concern about those two coming or why talking about it would need to be cloaked in secrecy.
I don’t know that it needs to be cloaked in secrecy as much as it being a case of being something that Nevin doesn’t want discussed on the forum. I believe he even went so far as to add at least the user name of one to the blocked words list.
I must have forgotten that. I didn’t remember it ever being a huge controversy in here. I guess I assumed the majority of us were authentic only?
The authenticity issue is more recent than blocking the username. It was a legal issue with the company having to do with slander/libel if I remember correctly.
And that triggered my memory. That’s right. Thank you. It makes sense now.
