2. I am sorry to have to break bad news......

There was some sort of interpersonal difficulties here for her and some other DU'ers....

And she asked to have her account turned off.....

She's gone..apparently for good.......

I'm sorry.....I don't know the details.....

:cry:

I miss her too....

3. She asked that her account be deactivated.

Some nasty folks were wounding her spirit and she had to leave to survive. Folks don't realize how mean some folks can be. :-(

I miss her energies here too. :cry:

7. Oh crap.

That sucks. And blows.

And I'll bet those who gave her grief aren't around much anymore. Why do people have to be so hateful? :(

10. I don't know--

but this is one of the reasons I call people on being thoughtless and rude on these boards. It's absolutely unnecessary and uncalled for. I seriously doubt that some of what people say on the boards they would say to someone in person.

I'm just so sad now. I really loved having Jimmy around--always enjoyed her posts and energy!

14. I'm having trouble imagining people NOT liking JJ!

That makes no sense at all. And it says a lot about those who battered her. :(

11. I don't know Popey

She has been such a help to me, if she hadn't been there to help me after Katrina, I don't know how I would have managed. She helped me feel connected to the world when I was so cut off.

Some are still here, wearing sheep's clothing. They know who they are. :grr:

18. I know. She was your lifeline, and our only contact with you.

You read the posts later, right? She is the one who kept calling, then assuring us that you were safe. That woman has one big, big heart.. and I hope she will reconsider and come back.

Donna - if you're reading this, I MISS YOU!

26. No matter what her detractors may think they know or may

think of themselves, the truth is, she WAS my life line. Can you imagine how I felt after the waters receded and finding utter destruction. Everything around me was gone or destroyed and the only person I could reach was Donna. And she was there when I reached out. She reached back and grabbed my hand and helped me feel connected to civilization and made me feel safe and loved.

You can't fake that type of love, she is just a geniunely good person with a beautiful spirit.

32. I know

she is--the genuine article. I remember all the threads here in the lounge during Katrina--all those that were worried about you, and Jimmy was there. Keeping us all posted on how you were.

This whole thing just makes me sick! How dare someone do this to her...

Piss ants--fuckin' grow up!

37. Unfortunately, ugly people hate that in good people.

They see genuine goodness and have a mad desire to destroy. I've seen it played out here over and over. It's like a madness takes over their souls, and all they want to do is kill.

How pitiful their lives must be, to have to resort to that kind of behavior. How empty and black their hearts must be. Truth be told: they know it, too. They know the ugliness in them, and hate themselves for it - then transfer that hate to someone else.

35. Pass along my regards to her...

She's a class act and a sweet woman. Why anyone would do more than tease her a bit, I can't imagine.

17. Thanks, merh

for letting me know.

Last I remember, she and I were talking about her backstage visit with the Clash. I was waiting to hear more about it, and never did. I figured she just got busy--not that she was gone...

:cry: :( :cry: :(

I would have kicked much verbal ass on her behalf--why didn't she tell me?

:grr: :mad:

Stupid asshat people!

38. She didn't want to stoop to their level.

Their efforts wounded her deeply and she didn't have the strength or desire to battle them. She didn't want to become like them.

For her own peace of mind, she thought it best she leave.

:cry:

She's one of the few people that would respond to my goofy threads about 80's music.

24. Please do, merh--

I was just getting to know her better...I'm sure we would have become DU buds!

I'm heartsick that she was treated so horribly, and I didn't even know.

Poor, Jimmy!

Thanks again, merh--I appreciate it!

15. She got chased away from DU by a bunch of bullies...

who smeared her, took confidential PMs and emailed and Pm'd them around DU, and who are basically heartless bitches who want to revert to jr. high popularity contests.

She left on her own. The bullies won't last here. They never do. Maybe after they are tombstoned, JJ will come back.

I hope so, anyway.

That's just so fuckin' juvenile! I don't know who these assholes are, but I couldn't think lower of any person for doing something like that to another human being.

May they burn in hell. :grr:

It's bullshit, plain and simple! They've got a hell of a lot of nerve ganging up on someone and being so cruel. What kind of loser needs to behave that way?

34. The bullies know who they are and many are seeing them for

who and what they are. Envious, petty losers. They have dull spirits and they covet the light that shines from people like JJ and they try to steal it for themselves. They can't cultivate it on their own, so they try to destroy that which they covet by spreading lies and rumors.

What goes around comes around.

30. I hope she is reading this

Because I will say publicly what I came to say to her privately: She is a decent human being with a good heart and a forgiving spirit.

I know all too well what happened to her, because it happened to me, and was perpetuated by most of the same cohort. They know who they are, and I will say no more about it.

I hope she does come back. Like NSMA, her friends care about her and think DU is a bit sadder for their absence.

To do that to anyone, let alone someone as thoughtful and caring as JJ is inexcusable. Damn.
