I am fairly new, too, and am thinking it is just better to read and not post. It is too easy to mean one thing, say another, and have it sound another, or be interpreted in yet another.

I agree aljo. I don't usually post messeges. It looks like there is a big witch hunt going on. Sorry, but no witches here. I guess I'll just keep my thoughts to myself. Silence, I guess is truely golden. Thanks aljo!
Avery, by stating the above you are joining shawdogg and the other ignorants on this forum. Let me try to give you an analogy to the situation here, perhaps it can help enlighten you and then you can enlighten others, like Shawdogg, correctly.Quote:

The young guy, however, had bought a sandwich from a road side stall on the way to the park. After finishing his lunch and using a tissue to clean himself put the tissue in the sandwich bag, which he then screwed up and leaning back on the park bench threw the paper behind a bush to his side. Unknown to the young guy he was being watched by a park ranger who came over and began berating the young guy on his thoughtless littering. The girl from the office too, was angry and left him to face the park ranger and to find his own way back to the office. The young man protested. He couldn't understand why the ranger and the girl were so upset. 'Its only a small piece of paper' !! He exclaimed.
The ranger explained. During the past year alone, 500 tonnes of litter had been found in the park, it had taken 40 trucks to remove the litter, at $800 per truck. This was a huge portion of the park's entire budget for the year. So much so, that essential plantings could not take place, two staff members had to be let go, (one, who had been there 10 years) and new flower beds not laid. The park had numerous litter bins and there was one not 20 feet away from each park bench.
The moral, of course, is think before you act! Don't start a new thread, for one, asking a question which has been asked and answered many times in this forum. Read and keep reading until you understand. Be aware the HUGE price of time and effort required by admins to answer the same question repeatedly.
Very good story and lesson to learn.
Excuse me for being human and making a mistake. I guess my curiosity for answers, mixed with the dissapointment of the loss of my hard earned dollars got the best of me. I apologize again to AbunDance and all the other witch hunting intellectials that don't make mistakes. Aljo had the most help in his post. Thanks Aljo.
If my words helped, I'm glad. Boy, that was a long time ago and muchwater under the bridge. I haven't even been reading in here lately. Somehow it seems pointless. I miss it, and the reason I used to frequent these pages. By now I should have been able to help a lot of people financially. I'm sad that it didn't happen.
I will be closing this thread and a string of others as well that are rather repetitive and only leads to confusion and disarray for returning members wanting to trace or track related posts concerning the current development some call it a stupid saga, a farce and even a silly & endless waste of time, well whatever anyone feels opinionated by their individual viewpoints or argument, the Trial on the Marsdens is NOT over and far from closure hence, a main sticky thread will cater to that attention
at this link>>>:
Any further new threads open just for the sake of an individual's ignorance to the progress surrounding the Marsdens or the Trial or anything else on PIPS or PicPay and all the parties involved will find their newly created thread deleted. Issues related to the past and further back in the past, will be posted in the above thread, click that and stay there with your submitted posts please. This is a start of some pruning and spring cleaning on the PIPS related Forum.
