Edit your comments please? re: wynters

May 24, 2005 15:54

So at the con we were discussing how wynters should be made aware of what was said in response to her article ( Read more... )

Comments 15

what exactly do you hope to accomplish by showing wynters these? she knows people don't like her. and why would she change for people who dont. if anything her unpopularity frees her to do what she wants. all you'll be doing is fueling a fire that was started by her poor relations with other con goers to begin with.

because something, not necessarily this, needs to be said about it. because she'll just go on thinking she's right unless it is brought to her attention. Perhaps simply something stating something along the lines of: We thought you would appreciate knowing that a large portion of the con community disagrees with what you have claimed in your article in Synapse. They believe that your being female had little to do with people not responding and that had another female, such as Lia or Lady, asked everyone to help clean, they would have responded as they did for Jeff.

though i do see your point.

One of these things in not like the others...one of these things just doesan't belong...

In other words, everyone makes a coherent point except me, and what I said there isn't going to help your case any. Cut me out, if you would please.

If I were Davi I'd ask you to take out the last of his comments. It's speculation, and while it very well might be true, if it isn't then it'll only weaken this and make her less likely to get it.

I actually want to leave that in, but I definitely think the way it's phrased needs to be fixed for it to be effective, the Yertle the Turtle remark definitely needs to come out though.

Also, the word "being" needs to be insterted into the second line of the second paragraph between the words "of" and "stepped"

do you think we should give them to her, and if so how cause i remember you being the one who brought it up.

wanderingdavi May 24 2005, 20:15:07 UTC

I remember bringing it up, but at the time it was me being a sarcastic, unproductive, mean-spirited, bitter mysanthrope ( ... )

i'm not sure as to how you would be able to present this to wynters ( ... )

i can't figure out what to do about this. i don't want another james mass email type deal, because apparently that wasn't good. i think all the comments are pretty valid, mish's too... i just don't know...what to do about all of this. because i think she is a good person, and so is phoenix. but i think...she does need to know. how? i have no idea. or what, even? well, rachel, i hope you are enjoying your bra, i love you lotsly. and i hope this all works out, i think it will. you should do what you think is right, i have faith that that will be right. love, *ilene*
