Kristen our comments should hurt you. They should hurt you to the point of
making you want to change. If it takes you so long to learn not to make
mistakes (which I have a feeling is just another one of your pathetic
excuses) then you need to back off of the GML for awhile and just read and
learn, not "participate" (a term I use very loosely because your
"participation" has been nothing but trouble). And how many mistakes do you
have to make over and over again? And what does it take for you to get it?
Any reasonable person would have gotten it after being kicked out of the AGS
and reprimanded so many times! Like I said in another message, if you can't
take the heat, then back off until you grow up and can behave appropriately!
You are immature and irresponsible and you have no place on the GML until
that changes!
