    You haven't seriously left us because of a little tiff with a pissed up BadCo? You too can hate each other all you want, but I still love ya to bits so come back yeah?

    To all of those that dont know, BadCo was in the wrong last night, and those that were quick to jump on Brenda's back last night on the 'Should I keep BadCo and PirateGirl' thread, whilst being completely ignorant to the situation should feel partly responsible for this.

    Before everybody cries out for BadCo to return, consider something. He was an absolute muppet last night, love the bloke, but perhaps you can read this thread from the start: http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/23551

    BadCo is 'HealthTips' on that thread, in his new alter ego, and treated Brenda and Colebabie in a bad way. If you lot want to defend him for that then go ahead, but your drooling over the bloke last night..... with a little bit of demonisation of Brenda, has driven a great person away. IF YOU HAVE READ the first link above up until 24 hours ago, then why not proceed to read this second thread http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/23581#post417303

    I can see straight through this. I cant see any apology from BadCo on this forum today for his disgusting behaviour. For the first time, I am upset and refusing to back a bloke that I generally hold with a lot of respect. Hopefully he hasn't driven Colebabie away too.

    Brenda was a victim last night. There you go, there is my piece. Dont go around begging BadCo to come back, he will be back in his own time.  I personally cannot side with the bloke this time.

      I am happy to see that ryan created a thread in support of Brenda! I was apart of this as well and have to say I have bit my lip for months seeing people getting cut down and bashed here... Brenda surely did not deserve it and I jumped in so as to defend her...

      I will say, I believe she had her own reasons of deleteing her account other than this situation and believe she will return...((hopefully)).. One thing I learned in a frightful way here on hubs is it is just not a good idea to use your real name and some will probably know why I choose not to...

      I hope all is well with Brenda and that she will be back...I miss her much. She definitely made hubpages a very special place for me.

      Unfortunately, I cannot email you Brenda since your account is gone so please email me if you like through my profile page so that I now how you are, ok?

      I think he told me off once too, but hey Brenda don't take it seriously its the Net. My own actions have been bad from time to time, and as I am very pragmaticc I just can't understand how anyone would be offended by anything said on the net.
      Darkside got stuck into me He doesn't even know my real persona, its nothing like I portray Hell no I am a quiet shrinking Violet, that wouldn't say Bum for a Big red Apple. There isn't a comment Badco could make to me that would stress me out. Please just stop taking this seriously. That is my only hassle with what is a brilliant Site, the fact a few people just want to be Goodie goodies./ Boring. Yeah he can be a Muppet, but a humourous one.

    I have to agree with Brenda. I like BadCo, he can be a very nice guy. But I am getting tired of the constant drama and the constant flouncing off. And demanding people stay out of the threads he creates is ridiculous. I hope he was banned again.
    A lot of the people defending him haven't had to live through it for the past 6 months or so.

    And I'm not afraid if he comes after me next (again), I'm not leaving...


    I like Brenda, she is a wonderful woman. As I have said so many times, we have to stop taking things said in the forums too personally.

      I have to agree.  I haven't been too aware of his bad behaviour, but I could never understand why he felt the need to parade himself as multiple different personalities (and even talk to himself) on the forums.  There has been a significant increase in silliness since he's been around. I've been quite happy to ignore it because I know some people find such childish humour amusing, but he's clearly taking it much too far.

    It wasnt even the stuff he said as BadCo!

    It was the stuff he said as HealthTips, before anybody knew that he was indeed BadCo.

    I suggest that you read my first link, starting from page 1, and look for anything written by 'HealthTips'. The way he talked to Colebabie was disgusting, absolutely horrible, and that is why Brenda became angry with him.

    Thats why people have ignored the full story and decided to beg for him back. They dont realise the things he was saying under the HealthTips login just minutes before Brenda made her comments. I actually get on well with him, but he deserves a ban and needs a break anyway.

    We have lost a great hubber today, a great reader too.

        ryankettposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        It was, he admitted it later on. In fact, he admitted it just half an hour before Brenda told him that people were getting fed up with him. The sucking up to BadCo that then proceeded, and the critiscm of Brenda's justified comments, were probably what have driven Brenda away. And I cant blame her to be honest.

        I just hope that she has a second login somewhere, from which she is making lots of adsense money.... and doesnt use for the forum wink

    I don't understand why she would quit over that. I mean, stop coming into the forum, but you don't have to delete your entire account. Anyway, I have fanned two less people. (if that makes sense smile )

      ryankettposted 14 years agoin reply to this

      She really liked him, and it has hurt her a lot. In fact, she believed that they were good friends. So did Colebabie, she believed that she was friends with BadCo too. She is a very sensitive and emotional person, in a positive and warming way, and is not here for the money but for the people. I genuinely believe that she was so disheartened that she decided to leave. BadCo lost three friends that day, because I think I am going to join them. Never thought I would say it, but I saw a side to him that I didnt think existed. We have all lost a lot more than BadCo though haven't we, we have lost a great hubber.

      I don't get it either.  It seems that recently, people are coming to HubPages for the forums as much as for the writing - whereas originally, the forums were just a handy place for HubPages writers to chat occasionally.

      As someone who joined earlier, I see writing on HubPages and participating in forums as two separate things - newer members seem to see them as indivisible.

      I agree, I won't even touch the thread he started on Alter Egos for that reason.  It's getting very old.  He treated Brenda and Cole like sh*t and I'm very disappointed in him.  I agree with Ryan that I saw a side of him I've never seen and I didn't like it AT ALL! 

      I do hope that's not what drove Brenda away.  I'm hoping she's just taking a break from Healthcare Tips!!!  Geez.

      Have you read the first link? Follow the thread from the start (you dont need to go too deep) and look for any posts from a poster called 'HealthTips'.... otherwise known as BadCo wink

      Brenda Scully has quit. Her account is deleted completely, there is no way back for her account, and it was within hours of this falling out. I personally cannot see any other explanation; she has obviously taken this badly.

    Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured. BC is full of anger and sometimes it harms those who are closest to him. I think he is the one who is hurting most of all. Not that I am favoring him or feeling sorry for him. He is an unhappy person, and misery loves company, bad or no. Now he will probably return and read all these things posted and make his new list. I certainly hope not. I hope Brenda returns, I really do.

    well, I've been gone for the last 5 days, so I don't know the drama, but the short couple months I've been here, I don't really see why anyone gets so emotionally tied with another poster. I know bonds are formed for various reasons, but all the same, we do not know the real person behind the words, the avatars, the drama... if someone wants to come back, he or she will, to beg them seems rather childish.

    the way I see it, anyone who is a jerk online is a worse jerk in real life. let people be. hmm

        This is so true Eric, especially in the deep south.  I have no use for those treating someone bad because of their station in life. 

        Heck, is this even important at all? Seems to be too much drama.  I wonder if Jerry Springer could be on here as an alter ego?

    I know this is a debate that has been talked about several times but for me multiple accounts work.

    However I do not talk to my other accounts in the forums or anything like that. 

    Dale is the real me and as you can see I am about everything.  I have openly admitted to having other accounts and for me in my affiliate business they are very important.

    However those accounts are for marketing only and that is what they will always be.

    In the last couple months I have noticed some things that actually made me laugh with BadCo and his so called alter egos but yes he did go a little far this time.

    I guess if you have alter egos for the wrong reasons then it shouldnt be allowed.

    What the? Argh! *bangs head against the wall*

    I was writing last night, so I missed the show. Had I seen it, I would have been inclined to have responded to that thread differently.

    I didn't badger Brenda or Cole ... nor would I ... as I saw the thread simply as another should I stay or should I go thing and I voiced my honest opinion ... stay if you want Badco and use aliases if you like.

    However, I didn't see the argument that precipitated it all and feel like a bit of an arse for adding two sense to it all.

    Those who know me on the forums know I don't attack others, nor do I care to see others doing it. I hate to see talented people on the brink of leaving, but in the case of Badco, perhaps he is inspired by the same madness that took Mozart. By that, I mean that his genius leads to boredom, which is often followed by acts he regrets later.

    I due truly think he feels awful later for what has been done (thus, the 'I'm leaving' threads, but the far better cure is to consider how others will perceive your thoughts before unleashing them on a forum ... and this advice is for all ... not for just one.

    Personally, I get a bit perturbed when somebody places the one ahead of the many, allowing one person to push them away when there are so many that want them around (I speak of the Badcos, the Brenda Scullys, and the Goldentoads).

    We're all equal members of this community, not leaders, each with as much right to be here as the other. As such, we can't take the animosity of one as a sign to leave when we have so many others wanting us to stay. How does that serve those who chose to fan you and those that read your hubs?

    Are we here for ourselves? Because if we are, then there is no need for forums, as forums are about unity and being part of a big family ... and being part of a big family does mean there will be sibling rivalries (some will be ugly).

    Still ... That's why you ignore the ogre and interact with those who are decent ... allowing the ogre to be carried off and spanked for a bit.

    So for those others planning to leave over animosities in the forums ... don't ... allow the system to weed out the ogres and give them a ripe thumping. That's the better plan of action, as leaving only punishes those who stayed behind and liked you.

    I didn't know much about Brenda, but I did see her kind, warm, and generous, and it ticks me off to see one less person like this on the forums.

    And Cole ... doncha think about following her ... If the ogres come after ya, come get me ... we'll knock them off the bridge together. smile

    Yeah, but there is a difference between leaving and being made to feel you must go ...

    After all, Tantrum, what if the world were to turn on you tomorrow? Would you feel it fair, considering you have done your best just to be amicable and make a presence?

    I read what was said in that other thread, and I can see how Brenda was upset by it all. Fun is fun ... but it crosses the line when someone gets an eye poked out, eh?

    I'd morn the same if it were you that chose to leave tomorrow. I just hate to see good people feel like they are being pushed away.

    Now ... if someone decides to become antisocial and wants to be left alone, then I am quite fine with their leave of absence, as then it's probably for the best.

    I don't know if I'm explaining myself well, but it's the best I can do to explain how I feel on this topic.

        Firstly, Brenda is not weak. We don't know why she left and what she felt. It could be disappointment, or maybe she thinks she should find a more suitable place for her.

        Then, consider that we should probably impose some restrictions on those who attack others rather then just allowing them to do according to their nature. That's why hp bans such people.

        We as human beings can't help but care for those that we like and anyone who attacks them will get us angry.

        Even if anger is an acid that... wink

    Ryan, it's nice of you to speak on behalf of Brenda and "call her back".  I suspect it will mean a lot to her, considering how much she has expressed fond regards for you and admiration of your work.

    Jeeeez cheers guys for all the insults, I was actually in bed ill and Brenda actually started a thread asking me to log on before she deleted herself. And one of her last Forum posts was that perhaps her and Invictus had ganged up on me.

    I can't believe half of this crap and I am deff not responsible for Brenda leaving. As for my behaviour and you giving me a lecture on behaviour Ryan maybe you should ask yourself why you have been banned so many times with your foul language and if I am right I myself actually talked you out of saying worse before you were banned. And if I am also correct it was a woman you were swearing at so please mate don't be a hypocrite.

    Ok hands up I can be a pain in the ass and I overplay the drama but jeeeez I most certainly am not the only one. Sorry but I am not the cause of all the silliness on the Forums and I said sorry to Cole. Yes it was childish, yes I was a total shit, but I am not the only person that gets on stupid at times and you Ryan should know that better than most.

    Cheers guys for stabbing the hell out of my back, was wondering why I had a pain in my back.

      She hadnt ganged up on you, she was defended a fellow hubber against some completely unprovoked and unneccessary insults. If she felt that she had ganged up on you, then she was wrong, more people should have told you that you were being out of order instead of creeping around telling you how much they want PirateGirl and BadCo are. Like you were claiming diminished responsibility for HealthTips because he wasn't your usual 'ego'. Well it was still your finger tips pal, yes I have been a tit, but not to good people like Brenda Scully and BadCo, and on occassions that I have, I have apologised at some stage. Misha and Sandra Rinck have both been on the recieving end of email apologies.

      You cannot relate my tempers in the religious forum against people like Atomswifey in any way to cowardly anonymous attacks on innocent and decent people. I have written everything on this forum in my own name, using my own photo. If you want to be aggressive and insulting to people on this forum, then be a man about it and do it from an account with your real name and photo. Brenda and Colebabie didnt know that they were being insulted by you, and had no reason to, until I suggested that you could be BadCo. It wasnt until I re-read that thread, before it was conveniently snipped, that I realised just how much of a dick you had been. And yes, I have been a dick before, but you know what BadCo..... I havent passed the buck. I write under my own name. Do you want me to set up an account named 'AcupunctureTips' and to start insulting people? That would make me a hypocrite.

      All you need to do is put your hands up and admit that you were an idiot that night, instead you want to turn that around onto somebody who has lost somebody that care about. I regret certain incidents on this forum, are you telling me that you have lost no face at all with this incident? You lost my respect the moment you did that. You had never lost it before. For somebody that drones on constantly about whether you have lost respect or boring people, well just to let you know that you have lost mine and you have bored me. An apology to Colebabie and Brenda was deserved, and not your lame attempt, go and start a thread apologising. You never would.

    Good God, again?  Nothing changes in Hubdom.  You can keep a ghost presence, only popping in from time to time and you are assured to find that somebody pissed off somebody else, and the other person is going to throw their toys out of the cot and delete their account, and who are they supposedly punishing by that?  Then of course, you get a thread begging them to stay when they have already gone.  Seriously, if you don't want to face attack and nasty repartee as happens from time to time on the forum, then don't go there.  Don't join in those discussions, choose the innocuous ones.  If you see someone is a bit sarcastic and cutting, then don't take them on if you can't handle it.  Jeez, aren't we supposed to be all adults here?

      Badco, on these forums you're writing, not speaking.  Writing - even if you're a fast typist - takes several seconds longer than talking.  I can understand people saying things they shouldn't in the heat of the moment, but really, as an adult you should be able to think before you hit the "submit" button.

      Or maybe we've all been deceived and you're actually twelve?

      You've never lost my respect captain, but I do wonder why - when you make a gaff - you post a thread asking if you should stay or go, when you should post a message saying you messed up and you're deeply sorry.

      I know your character, and I noted as much when I said in my response that you appear genuinely upset later when these things happen. However, your response is to devalue yourself and threaten withdrawel rather than to accept your human, ya want a step too far to the left, and apologies mean more than your absense at that point.

      The fact that you handled this behind the scenes is all good, as again, it proves that you have a good character that wants to get along. However, everyone else saw a tiff, someone wanting to leave, and nothing saying 'I wasn't myself and I admit it' (until now).

      So ... my advice good captain ... the next time you want to post 'should I leave or should I go', don't ... Just post what went wrong, why it upset you, and ask 'can we all get along again'. You'd be surprised to find the answer will probably be 'yes', as deep down you are a good soul ... quite possibly a bit of a silly irishman (and if you are not from Ireland, I apologize in advance - I guessed from your posts), but the fact is you are 'OUR' silly irishman, and we would care not to think of you leaving every other day.

            You seem to have missed the whole point cosette. I love BC to bits, but he DID anonymously attack others. This was my issue. I have a deep respect for BC and have since the day I published my first hub. In fact I consider him to be a friend, but the fact that he insulted Colebabie and Brenda Scully, from a new alter-ego.... without telling them who he was..... is the whole point of this thread. So you just confirm my point, people do not know what BC did to upset Brenda and Cole, but it is irrelevant now as BC has held his hands up and apologised and everybody can move on. Nobody knew that 'HealthTips' was BC until me, Brenda, and Colebabie twigged.... well it was me actually; and this is what the issue was. Brenda and Colebabie were very shocked and dissapointed that BC would do such a thing, and so was I, but we can all move on now.

            Nobody can gather a full picture of the events, due to snipping in that thread, but 'HealthTips' said some bad things to Colebabie. Colebabie didnt know who it was. She found out it was BC eventually. And prior to this Colebabie felt that she was BC's friend. Same with Brenda. That was the whole point, this is what BadCo has done wrong.... not saying nasty things, although that is wrong, but hiding behind another login to do it. All I know is that he wont do it again, which must be a positive thing.

    Maybe my imput is not important here but I like Ryan, Brenda and Badco all for different reasons. I have to say that I have not been in the forums when Badco and his egos are at their worst. After reading through the forum links Ryan provided I can see a very drunk unhappy Badco that for some reason is lashing out and a little out of control. Brenda is a kind caring person and Ryan highly intelligent with a vast knowledge on lots of subjects which can sometimes lead to conflict. Healthy conflict I might add. Are the forums not here to banter and argue about what individuals believe in? Would you all want it as sweet words spoken to each other? maybe some would but without all 3 of you the forums would be a boring place. Come back Brenda we all miss you and you and Badco are both adults and I am sure you can put this to rest. If only you could both speak one to one I am sure you will like and gain respect for each other. We must look beneath the words and see the hurt in someone.

Perhaps hiding behind an ego is allowing you a little too much freedom in letting off steam. As BadCo you are not like this. You and Brenda should forgive and forget and become the best buddies on hubpages. You have done the right thing and appologised and now need to wait with hope that Brenda will come back as I know you are feeling really guilty and did not mean things to get out of hand.

                  I know that your Bestie hub didnt make you any money, you dont need to tell me that, I have about 30 footy hubs and only one made me over 50p. But I have started a series which I must finish now, and Im not enjoying it at all any more! As for serial killers..... they dont make any money either, except one, which scarily earns me quite a bit for no reason whatsoever! Education...... thats where I make my money. Course, qualifications, degrees..... need to get some of those bashed out wink

    No amount of 'drama' in the forums can overshadow the fact that badco writes AMAZING hubs....and I hope we'll soon get to read more of his stuff. Who cares what avatar you use, as long as quality writing keeps coming through! let's all focus on what really counts here.... smile

          I'm glad I got here when I did!  Theis place is falling apart.  For the record, I made the skull in my pic with my own hands last year for a Halloween prop. 
          Everything that I have written is mine and came straight out of my twisted little mind.
          All of the opinions I have and will express in the forums are mine and no one elses.  If they offend you, I'm sorry.  If they keep offending you, you might want to look for another thread to hang out in.
          That's just me and that's how I am!

                she isn't so computer savvy...
                she might not have read all this
                I hope she did. I hope she saw it all and knows we all love  her and her poetry.
                But, what if she hasnt seen any of it?
                I want to email her, but mine is broken, Ive been trying all day...
                surely someone has her address? just to see if shes ok?
                I know a bit ago, something happend that required my leaving suddenly. Had nothing at all to do with HP. I came back and saw a thread about me, it tickled me purple to know that people noticed my absence. BUT out of everyone here, 2 people emailed me. What if she isn't reading the forums? And no one has mailed her? How will she know?

    Mate we were always going to be ok again, but just because I like you doesn't mean that I have to condone all of your actions. If I do something silly, I would want you to say something too.... Im sure it will happen again soon, so I await your ticking off wink  Make sure you let me know how your hubs get on, and drop me an email some time.... I will talk to you a little more about what is working for me adsense wise when you are in that kind of mood, not that I think you need me too.... you know damn well how to make money on here.

    Ryan, people are not taking sides on this one, stop making it an issue?

    Everyone wants Brenda to come back, most everyone has voted for BC and Company to stay as is or in revision, it's his choice,  whether you like it or not, they are family, just quit building a case and go to a forum more applicable to your need to debate...like politics or religion...let the "Artsy" genius types express themselves as they wish...deal?  No more arguing, it's over and you don't even know it...

          I appreciate you feeling protective of Deborah-Lynn.  I stand by “naïve” however, or perhaps "uninformed".  I almost always choose my words carefully. 

          I was going to say, we can agree to disagree, but I guess we can’t since you fanned, then unfanned me.  I’ve been very supportive of you on past forum threads, and even tonight, through email with a friend.  I’m not your only (former?) friend or fan that thinks you need to knuckle down and take a good look at your actions of late.  Reflection, apologies, and such have taken place in these never ending forum threads.  Some people are unaffected, and others have made peace, and decisions one way or another.  Yes, I think it’s naïve or uninformed for Deborah-Lynn to think she can say when the community is done.

      In fact, it doesn't sound like you know much at all, but that doesn't matter because you don't "take sides" or anything, its just that I have to go to a different forum because I have upset BadCo? Your saying that you don't think I should be allowed to enter the Hubber's Hangout? Very impartial that Deborah. But I wouldn't like to accuse you of "taking sides". I guess I am just not "artsy" enough to act like a dick? No its not a deal, it couldnt be any further from a deal, I dont bargain my rights to communicate.
