Ooh... if I get back to the office before we close today, I'll pick up my pirate picture and scan it... I dressed up as a full fledged pirate for Halloween.

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:18 PM

Arrr... I was a pirate for Halloween last year, too! :)

A nun eh? Haha! Well if anyone could pull that off it would probably be you! ;) I have a friend here that does community theater, and she has played so many different characters. It's so much fun to watch her get into character. I can't remember who she played in the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but it was great!

"If anyone could pull that off it would be you...."

Sneezy... care to convince her otherwise? ;)

As M said, the Mae West that suits me... "When I'm good I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better!"

Hehe... that was my sarcasm at work! :p

LOL!! You're digging yourself deeper, Starby... ;)

starbuck8 · Apr 28, 2008, 12:33 PM

I know... I know... what did I get myself into! Sometimes it's best to open mouth--insert foot--just so it stops me from speaking any longer! LOL

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:34 PM

:D S'ok, Starby... I'll just put an extra shot or two of Ameretto in your next cappuccino... I'll get you talking and set you free... Pay backs are fun... ;)

starbuck8 · Apr 28, 2008, 12:40 PM

Hahaha! You never know what will come out of my mouth with those extra shots! Could get scary. ;)

Oh no, just got a PM from the 12yr old girl. I soooo don't know what else to say to her, and I don't know if she's a troll or not. But I sure don't want to NOT answer her if her whole story is true. Urrghhh... what to do!?

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:42 PM

The one that posted the boy/girl question? Oh boy... I don't know...

If it was me, I'd do like you said - trust until given reason to not... is there a way that you can cc a moderator on a PM?

Sticky...

DO NOT ANSWER PMS.

Tell them to repost their private message in the thread, as we have a policy at AMHD to ONLY answer questions publicly, in case misinformation is given, so that others can correct it.

NEVER answer a PM from someone with a question in it (unless it's your friend and they're asking you to go to drinks)

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:44 PM

There you go, Starby... the answer.

starbuck8 · Apr 28, 2008, 12:47 PM

She's not really asking a question. She told me where she is from because she didn't want it to be public. She implied a question though, asking why people aren't believing her. (not really asking, just saying she didn't know why.) I just would feel so bad if her whole story is actually true and no one believes her.

That was my only dilemna Synn. I've answered a few questions before I realized that I wasn't suppose to, so I'm more careful with doing that now.

starbuck8 · Apr 28, 2008, 12:53 PM

Thanks Synn! I suppose this is my fault also, because I believe I did say that if she just needs to get her feelings out in private that she could PM me. It was late, and probably a lapse in judgement.

Starby bad! ;) I just hate hearing about young kids that are hurting, and I don't stop to think enough about the whole situation sometimes.

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:55 PM

It is very sad, and you're sweet to care so much. To protect her (and yourself), Synn is right. Glad the girl has come here for help. She'll find it through advice given by people like you.

:)

starbuck8 · Apr 28, 2008, 12:58 PM

:) Okay... who wants to go for drinks now? I don't have time to send PM's to you. LOL!

Actually, I have to take off and get some work done... but I'll be back later of course!

Have a good afternoon all! :D

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 12:59 PM

Take care, Starby! :)

Synnen · Apr 28, 2008, 01:00 PM

If you're really concerned about whether something is "real" and want it looked into, quietly PM one of the admins and ask whether there is anything they can check for you. Sometimes there is, sometimes there isn't--but most of the time you'll find they're already watching the question you're worried about.

With all due respect here if she is 12 years old do you honestly think its wise to be talking to her via a pm?? Think about it you could land yourself into hot water if her parents went investigating keep it all in the open if they won't post a thred then do it yourself have the sense to cover your rear.

HistorianChick · Apr 28, 2008, 02:08 PM

Well guys... I'm leaving here in a few minutes. Tutoring tonight! Woo-hoo! :)

Speaking of... I mentioned to one person last night that I was considering starting to give piano lessons again... I now have 10 students... lol! 7 kids and 3 adults... wow...

:) Have a great night everyone! Talk to you in the morning.
