I don't think I've had any (I may have repressed it if so.) But I do know of others who have.
I'm sorry it happened to you.

Yes.. I got one once.
It was not nice- and of course, it's always anonymous.

is very personal that I/we? have told other babblers or mentioned in a thread, etc.. They are pretty much vulgar trash but still a shock at first.

> a cowards way...
It's someone here? Using babblemail or regular email? I'm not saying it's a brave thing to do, but could we not refer to them as a "coward"? Thanks,
Bob

Dictionary's definition of a coward: One who shows ignoble fear in the face of danger or pain. Whats wrong with calling them a coward?

Dr. bob, I see what you mean. No puts downs. Rule of the forum. I know. But this doesn't sound like someone who belongs to the forum. And it dosn't seem like anyone here would feel offended by calling someone who was anonymously rude and offensive on purpose in order to make that other person feel uneasy, shocked, scared, etc. a coward.

Truth is often considered uncivil here.

> Truth is often considered uncivil here.
Indeed it is. I got penalized because I called an e-mail *nasty*
I was allowed to say I was "shocked and horrified" which was suggested to me as an alternative.
Which also would have been a lie.
I wasn't.
It was obvious though, that someone could have been.
I'm not allowed to say that was what the intent of the e-mail was, but it failed miserably
And had I been, I wouldn't have wanted to announce it.. why?
How much more satisfying could it be for the e-mailer - who -is -not- a- coward to think that her e-mail
"shocked and horrified me"
*sigh*
That would be playing right into her hands, and not be telling the truth either..And C.T.. Zen and I were wondering if you mistakenly took one our shirts with the Babble Block Target on the back. : )
Actually I haven't felt persecuted by the powers that be here for a while, but if you did get Zen's shirt.
Whoooooooooooooooooa
You're in for a fun time.

I'm glad you didn't take Dr. Bob up on his suggestion. There is a contempt one feels for oneself when one lies, that does more harm than a flood of *insert civil words here* e-mail.

Was it an email or a babble mail? When I get emails or babble mail the address of the sender comes up. Not if the babble me of course. If it is babble mail, their screen name shows up. Was there any address given?

Sorry, kids, don't have the shirt. I have something more permanent. An invisible tatoo on my forehead! And no, it doesn't have anything to do with sex it implies. If only it did...
I was born with it. My husband used to think I was exagerating, but it didn't take long before he figured out I'm not.
