Can I insert my .2cents into the Casinomeister slot here? Well here goes...
Keep in mind that I am posting in GENERAL here
From where I'm sitting this is how I saw it going down:
I arrive here at the forum of Casinomeister and I am drawn towards a member who on a more than regular basis tells us how sick they are and how in need the family is. Okay, sentiments, wishes for best of health and luck etc, etc. Then comes along a winfall that they were robbed of.....makes headlines for abit then dies down. Then still hearing of ill health, we are informed of wrongfull doings of a certain casino regarding the RJ, after awhile that also dies down.
Then BAM!!!! Lo and behold person in general just happens to win a RJ and congrats are thrown out there. Before you know it, seems the almighty $$$$ has brought about new knowledge and new health(because you never hear another word about it) and it goes downhill from there.
Now this is just my view of person in general: seems all of a sudden CM appointed a third right hand because it seems all of a sudden they are the be all and end all and have a false sense of being more important than most regular forum members in the sense that they seem to feel they have the right to say whatever and basically tell the main man what he should do. Lord forbid if anyone should disagree with *general person* because then it is called foul play and only out to get *general person* on a personal basis.
*General person* seems to have an agenda for certain forum members and is constantly incorporating ways to get under their skin. Yet *general person* never seems to have a consequence for their actions.
Bottom line....people are sick of it and are tired of said *general person* and their holier than thou attitude.
I for the most part get along with everyone, but comes a time when enough is enough. Also, I normally keep myself out of trouble but sometimes you just have to let it all hang loose.
There you have it...I said my piece and remember, its only MY opinion. I can take whatever is handed out to me and I accept the consequences for saying my piece.

Ok for f's sake already. We all know whom you are referring too right!? So say it, M-Y-S-T-I-C
Ok, so when I first came to the forum, and I voiced there were a few members who not only attacked my opinions, had others back them to see how much I could take, "trial by fire" I believe the statement was? Anyway, yes mystic is in bad health, yes we know about it, she is not the only one that expresses their unfortunate situations.. The girl has had alot of bad breaks, but I gotta say, I have seen the attacks and the mean comments, one poster will say something that is wrenching towards her, then all of a sudden she is under attack by all other of that op clan, whether it be "lol, good one! or an uneccesssary "thanks" or "let's all chime in and make fun of her" Yes, we have heard about her misfortunes. When she won that money from poc? (I think it was?) and got stiffed for it, there was some really uncalled for behaviour. First everyone sided with her, and then when she opens up and explains herself and why she is so upset, why she needed it so much, everyone turned around and more or less was against her, the responses were more like "Oh, well, you got f'ed so eat it!" Honestly, I told Mystic not to show her emotions too much because some will use it against her. I found out one thing about this forum and that is "If you are going to be a member here, you better be tough, and you better be able to back what you say!" So, I never knew that before, "that gamblers have to be invincable" We are all here for the same reasons right?! To support each other? So, then all is quiet about mystics loss, then (sorry was it laurie?) comes out with a confession and that mystic might (after all this time) get her money?!!!!! Mystic, is thrilled!! She is thinking, wow, maybe she will really help me, so she get's all excited and again, expresses how much she needs this money, probably hoping that anyone and everyone will back her on this especially now we have this new "revelation" Then wtf? We find out, no she isn't going to get the money. So, she becomes very upset and distressed about this, expresses this and bam! all of a sudden she is the bad one again! All hostility towards the poster that "spilled the beans" shall we say? gets turned around, twisted, and all of sudden we are feeling bad for the bean spiller. I was away for awhile so missed alot of what was going on around here, I come back and am invited to a private group, then I see there is another private group, and catch up on some threads and "goings on" and see alot of secretiveness, bashing, and so forth. None of us are perfect, sorry to have to break that to you, but I think some think they are. To be a reputable member here, and to have friends here should be valued and appreciated, it should not be used to the members advantage to say, "Hey, look at me" "I'm up here" "your down there" I have more right then you do! And here, I can make fun of you or I have power because I have more people then you do to back me on this, or, to give a member the feeling that they dont have a right to post their feelings. I don't have any bad feelings towards anyone here, I dont agree with some, and I have that right. What I dont like is the laughing at someone, the making fun of someone when they feel stongly about one thing or the other. We all have our demons, some show them a little more then others. I have shown mine too. I dont have it good either. Mystic has some pretty severe health problems, I know how she feels because I also am injured. I am not as bad as her, and thank god for that, because she has alot on her plate. You can't judge someone until you walk in their shoes. I gotta tell ya, one accident can change your entire life. That's not a mild statement. I mean your entire life, day to day things others take for granted. When your in pain your whole life is impacted. And when your in long standing pain, it affects your mind and stability. You get stressed and depressed. You wonder how your going to take care of those who you are responsible for, never mind yourself. Some days you go hungry because you are in just too much pain to cook for yourself. Trust me, on this. If you ever have an accident, say goodbye to the life you knew. So, with all these life altering events in your life, things change, you dont have the friends you used to, you come to a forum and make friends, then people turn on you. It hurts and it's sad. Before we judge someone, we should "really" put ourselves in their shoes. Just think what it would be like to be in a wheelchair, be paralyzed, have no where to live, be hungry, have all the people that you thought loved you, turn on you and leave you. And why? Because you were unfortunate enough to get hurt, or get sick, whatever reason brought you to the place you are. I see young kids fying down the street, speeding like crazy, and think, they have no idea, no idea that in a second, the life they knew could be over. Anyway, this is all jmo and my right, no? And with the atb thing, as a proud Canadian, I would like to see this listed as somewhere we "all" would feel comfortable going to. But, yes I think all banking would be more convenient in one group. Thanks for hearing me,
