Good news. The parrots can't afford her to turn evil. :)

Re: Lawana's comment post #1144:

Even though the admin edited the comment, they still can't use the correct 'you're'!

Really not the brightest bulbs in the box. Or any box. Ever.

This is why we laugh at them and it drives them crazy.

Anyway, it's nice to have more proof of how they edit things to suit themselves. They're not fooling anyone.

I agree.

Also Lawana recently thought it´s a good idea to post my current location and my place of birth on the ugly green hate site. Which I see as a threat against me and to intimidate me. I am going to hand over today the screenshot, and every single mentioning of me on STGRB, to a lawyer. While I haven´t decided yet what to do, I wanna have the proof of their threats and accusations in the hands of someone with authority. Just in case something should happen to me. I have no doubt that Athena Parker, as the owner of STGRB, according to the Who-Is registration, will be held accountable then.

Karen Chance got her feelings hurt. Because of a 4**** star review. Fangs For The Fantasy posted a real positive review with some minor criticism of Masks (Cassandra Palmer World) by Karen Chance and Chance did what every NYT bestseller and succesful author should do in her position. She emailed them and argued her position with reviewers and blog readers alike. Her tone is condescending, and her logical failures interesting. Playing the ´honey´ card and ´you read the book wrong´ doesn´t really make me wanna rush out and give Karen a cookie and a hug either.

Wow, a traditionally-published author in a genre I actually read! Thankfully I've never been interested in her works, anyway. Just goes to show that no one is immune to turning on their readers. For a FOUR-star review, even!

Abbi Glines speaking out against crying ´bully´ as a promotion strategy.

With her sunny disposition, I'm always shocked that Karen Bell isn't more successful.

The ugly green hate site STGRB has posted a new statement and JBG explains their mission. He had to dumb it down for Oops a bit, but that´s okay. Not that she doesn´t get it or anything.

And Johnny Be Good declares the end of "anon" posting online. Anon1, Anon2 and all the other STGRB anons are peeing themselves in joy already.

(hide spoiler) Start a rumor on STGRB to create trouble...

Defend your rumor because it's fun to make people squirm...

Decide to make your target a bullied author...

All is forgiven...

Observer is close. The people behind STGRB are not good authors. (show spoiler)

Lenora Johnson is STGRB's new poster girl. We should expect a poorly written post soon where Mel paints Johnson as a victim. Humping LJ will also give STGRB a chance to plug the dud petition.

Like so many BBA before her, Johnson has made Mel very proud.

Oh my god, that is pure insanity.

Well, at least we can see why she signed the petition. Maybe she wants to expand her menu and add reviewers. Only trolls could be a boring diet.
