Sad Announcement

Sorry to hear that you've left AD Bear, you sound so disappointed over being let down. You will be missed. It sounds like you need some time out and I hope you get what you are looking for. Good luck with looking for work! And hope your CI goes okay for you as well.

The account was removed just like that *snaps fingers*
That was really disappointing I thought.

I don't run this forum & make those decisions:|

Yes, Bear is a "she". ;)

Yea, DeafMonkey

I'm surprised to see her account been remove that quick, I thought they would give them time to re-consider. You know how members get upset and asked for their account to be removed, but then again they were in emotional state at that time when they asked for their account to be removed, I think they should give her a least time to come back when she's ready without having her account to be removed. :(

Well, she sounded upset and serious about having her account removed, not just on on AD but TD as well, so I did that per her request. :dunno:
 
Boy I can understand why Bear would be disappointed with this camping plans all cancelled once again.. I would be if that happened to me all the hard work done to get that going... I'm very disappointed at the folks who promised to show up for the camping trip but decided to flake out at the last second, that is purely disrespect for sure... come on, folks... ya cant just give an empty promise and then flake out on Bear without any warning at all... she had worked hard to get everything ready.. she did even ask me a few years ago about the trip and I was honest with her that I would dearly love to come but cannot come due to issues that would prevent me from coming, such as money issues, job problem, my parents, everything.. at least I was honest with her and I even said one day I would love to come when everything has been settled finally... it might be several years till I feel like I would be able to come... who knows... at least I was honest with Bear on this and I am sure Jo know that as well as other members I know as well..

I'm really disappointed at this happening to Bear and I hope she is okay with that...

I asking what Camping trip about?
 
Explaining why this had happened.

Let me help to explain what has really happened to the cancellation of this forthcoming trip.
Im partly to blame but I didn’t expect this decision to be made so quickly as there could have been time for me to ensure the trip still go ahead or not. I was just telling Bear about a proposal that was given to me and it was a conflicting decision to make as it was in the same time as my intended trip out to USA.
This proposal was given to me by my best friend who is getting married in July and asked me to be her chief bridemaid. She was aware that I was going to USA so was going to work on it to make her change her mind to another day. I told Bear about this and hasn’t made any decisions on whether I will attend the wedding or not as I felt there was plenty of time to think about it but unfortunately the decisions was decided by Bear to cancelled the whole thing without second thought. I was very shocked to see the announcement made mins after I told her of what could happens.

I am very sorry for all this to have happened and have put many people down because of this. Im not so sure if this can be all undone now as the damage has now be done and many of u people feelings have been hurt. I apologise that this has come to such a dramatic decision and I hope you all understand the real reason behind all this.

I just hope I havent made too many enemies because of this as I know many will be disappointed in this post of mine but I just want you to know the real truth and I have nothing to hide from it than never telling anyone as it best to get it off my chest now than be burden down with it. Deeply Sorry!!
 
Sasha - It has not been an easy decision for everyone in this part but there's one thing I know, I'm still not going to hate you and I am sure others won't be hating you for that since your best friend's wedding happened to came up at the same time when the "camping" was supposed to be on the schedule. So I do understand where you are coming from. Sometime things are not meant to be and it happens when we don't expect it. You haven't made an enemy out of me because now that I know what's going on and completely understood about it. You had a good reason not to come and it's totally understandable. There are always some other time for us all to get together. If this year couldn't be the year for you to come, Sasha, perhaps the 2008 AD Caucus will do? (Just a thought) Or anywhere could be convinent as well :)
 
Yes I would say the same as Jolie_77...

Yes, Sasha I can understand where you come from...

Yes, you have a good reason to make your own decision is an understandable..... Nobody can make you do something what they wants but look on your own feeling what you make decision what best for yourself.
 
Thanks Joile and Liebling for understanding where im coming from.I truly appreciated ur comments. Who knows what the future might hold for next couple of months as one must remember this quote "Always expect the unexpected" as u can never know what will come around that corner.

Thank u.
 
I really do understand too, Sasha. You haven't made an enemy out of me either. I can understand some things like that just happens, you just gonna do what you gonna do. At least you told her now than the last minute. That part I have respect for. It's not like you made a promise that you'll come and then a day or a week before the event you decide to call it off because you did not have any money or something, nor didn't show up like you promise to.


There's some members here who made promise to come to the 2006 AD Caucus and only 12 of us went, and some of them did not even informed us that they were not coming. Yes, that did pissed me off because when something like that happened, it leaves the person who was in charge a huge bill to pay just because some promise to show up. I hate people like that. It's like this, don't say you're coming, if you don't have the money for it. If you're not sure, then don't say you're coming either. We all had a year in advance noticed, that gave us all a chance to save up before the event occur.
 
i undy sasha nothing for us to do or change about the stuation i thought it was me that bear was mad at

but i found it was personal reason
hope everything will be alright
 
Ohh now I know, Sasha.. oh boy ya were in a hard place with your friend asking ya to be her bridemaid for her wedding and the camping trip that Bear made... oh boy I wish Bear would have waited and maybe tried to make some good arangments with the camping trip to be postponed 2 weeks or so to let ya get that wedding in and come over later on that long trip, would it be 20 hours or so by plane to come there for the camping trip, correct? that would have given ya enough time to recover from that wedding celebration and the lousy jetlag ya might have to deal with for a week or so...

I do hope Bear will be okay and etc... I just wish it wasnt under such conditions that had to happen.. oy boy... I do feel for her somehow...

AND Sasha...good to see ya back in here!! Been a long while since we seen ya in here yapping as usual...

Ahh no wondering that explain i can undy that i don't blame you for that :) also i do agree w/them
 
Thank u Thank u for your wonderful comments.

Yes Cheri about your comments about me not giving it the last mins which was the reasons I had to tell Bear to give me plenty of time before the deadline to make other arrangements if the need to be but things just backfired so there nothing I can do now to redo the damage.

No worries moonflower now yu can understand that you werent at fault at all.

And a big hello to u to Northstar and thanks for your comments and yes it was one of those unfortunate moments to have happens and we cant turn the clock back to change things but to move on but hope something better turns up for me and Bear and others too. Yes corrrect about the flight would be over 20 hours to get there and it could have made me pretty tired with everything happening in such short time as i could return back a very very tired person and having to go to work to work with the kids is not a good way to do it so need to seriously think of best way to do it. Oh well!

Thanks heaps Lovelyblkgal for understanding the situation. Appreciate all of u.
