When is a mod going to step in and tell her that a list is agitated and she needs to shut the hell up?
That would be a far more honest way of dealing with her. The list mods should throw her off their lists for the sake of the rest of their members and stand by their decision. But trying to be cute off list and authorative on it just makes you look two-faced.
If you flame, and you know you're broken the rules, and you stand by that decision, then at least that's honest. But to be fair, the mods should then toss you. I bet they won't. It comes down to who's their chum and who's not, and that just sucks.
Aaargh, this drives me mad! Why don't people just accept this cow is going to stomp off in short order, and prevent the damage she and the people she's inciting to attack are causing? All that's happening is the agony is being prolonged.
On the other hand, I made some snide comments, but I wonder if I'll get tossed. Not beause of the MODS, BUT BECAUSE i'M A BAD JUDGE OF WHAT IS FLAMEY. Really. I thought I'd get tossed long ago.
To be honest, I'm actually trying to argue with her points in an intellectual way. I think she's wrong, and I don't mind telling her that. I haven't really attacked her person onlist.

The problem is that she ie not going to stomp off. And banning her outright wasn't really enough to deal with her. That's the problem. She doesn't really do enough to be banned for flaming, and sooner or later she will reappear in another place. I've seen her on four lists, and on every list she managed to annoy people.
I can only speak for myself. I feel personally offended that she assumes she's the only person with the right opinion. I personally disagree with her, and I don't care if other agree with her or with me. I've read polite, well-reasoned replies to her posts, as well as those bordering on flames or being outright personal attacks. The latter made me really uncomfortable, but I admit that I don't like her and I think she's arrogant and annoying. And I have every right to express my opinion. But I'm trying very hard to be polite and deal with her opinions not with her, which I reserve for my LJ where I can do whatever I please.
By the way, I'm not trying to bash you. I can see where you're coming from. Rules are rules and breaking them should result in being tossed no matter who you are. Sorry, Em, but I've witnessed enough flame wars. Then again, she surely made the fandom interesting.

Hey I'm a miserable old cow. Flame wars are not fun and I did not expect anyone to condone or applaud my behaviour :)
It is good to know that she gets that far up other people's noses as well.
