I just do not go away easily. She is to come back, and not be affected by the insensitivities of Terb. She is absolutely beautiful. I have never met her personally, as her intelligence caught my eye. Her posts are exactly how I articulate on paper. Some people simply think that because we are in this business, we lack intelligence. Those people are sadly mistaken. Genin, start posting.Cycleguy007 said:Thanks Angie... we will leave it in your capable hands... (You seem to have a away with the ladies!)
So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Unfortunately, for some people "the hobby" is more about posting (more often than not, garbage) on TERB than about seeing the ladies...
Seriously, I hope this is a lesson. We're lucky to have the ladies interacting with us on this site to give us some insight and to help navigate the waters of this crazy business from an insider's perspective.
It's a damn shame that there is a vocal minority of classless misogynists - that seem to be growing in both numbers and volume - that ruin it for everyone.
I hope Gen changes her mind, but I can totally understand if she doesn't.

With all the good guys here on Terb, we as a team will bring her back. This business is a tough one, it gets to everybody. We are bringing her back.Captain Fantastic said:
I can see why it would be difficult for an SP to interact with terb members, who may be existing or potential clients, and why she might make the cautious choice to keep a safe distance.
We hobbyists can get together here on terb, and have friendly, or not so friendly, discussions, or joke around and casually insult each other, or frankly piss each other off, without ever having to worry about actually getting together, or defending ourselves, in real life, as the details of our actual whereabouts are unknown to anyone but ourselves ~ unless of course we make that conscious choice. Not so with an SP, as she could find herself, unknowingly, meeting face to face with some jerk with a grudge to bear, looking for god only knows what! All he has to do is call up the Agency and make an appointment.
Frankly, I don't blame SPs for keeping that safe distance between themselves and potential clients, even in cyberspace ... and I'm not sure I wouldn't do the same thing, if I were in their place.
As much as I would love to see Gen back on terb, I respect and understand her decision, if that's how she wants it.

SnowLeopard, you one wise man. You do not speak with forked tongue. You are more than welcome to apply for the post of "Tribal Elder". (I did apply but they said I am too immature and don't take life seriously enough. To re-apply in 200 years.)snowleopard said:
Lord, I miss that woman already. I need my daily French lessons!
Leppard, this post is proof of why I consider you a friend! Well written, well thought out, not to mention considerate and understanding. You ARE the man!snowleopard said:
So that's what terb means: 'Tribal Elder Review Board' ... is that kind of like the Parole Review Board?Rockslinger said:
If taking life seriously is a prerequisite, then I guess that counts me out of the club too. I'm just lowly born-again pagan peon, trying to pay my membership dues, one SP at a time.
And please punsters ... no 'peon' remarks!
