   It's impossible to keep track of the players to email them privately to pull their heads in.
   
   Whether someone really did die or not, it's rather tasteless to brawl about the funeral in public.
   
   And nobody gains anything from the process.
   
   I just remind myself that a significant minority of the world's population is a little loopy, and there is every chance that they are all multiple personalities of the one individual, or it is an unfortunate intersection of two somewhat wobbly individuals.
   
   Just don't let it rattle any of the steady Hubbers, and it will blow over.

      Hi Jenny,
      
      I'm just clarifying that my earlier comments were in reference to the hubber that goes by the ID "part26". My confusion stems from the comments made by "part26 who has suddenly made his/her debut with stark accusations about another hubber.
      
      Though "part26" has been a member of Hubpages for 4 months, there are no hubs published under this ID. "ASHWINSPGA", on the other hand has published a total of 133 hubs in less than 3 months.
      
      As I have exchanged comments with "ASHWINSPGA" but have never interacted with "part26", I am therefore inclined to give "ASWINSPGA" the benefit of the doubt.
      
      Death, mourning, and funerals are very serious affairs that should be carefully broached even in private correspondance. I strongly feel that "part26" should not have made a public accusation in the absence of "ASHWINSPGA".
      
      "Anonymity" refers to "part26" who has neither a profile picture nor any published hubs.
      
      sincerely,
      
      terence

   The way I see it, there are two possibilities. Either this part26 is right, in which case the accused hubber gets exactly what (s)he wants: attention. Or part26 is wrong, in which case I hope that this part26 character is proud of himself (herself).

    I'm just so shocked, as I was in that last case too, that anyone has the 'Head-strength' to come to hubpages and post anything. I'm postive that that would not be my reaction to news of a loved one dying. No offense to all my hub friends here but I can vouch that I probably wouldn't have the brain power to turn on my computer in horrible times as that.

    I've just decided to hang back and let it all sort itself out...
    
    When my mother passed away unexpectedly, it wasn't my first thought to post it on here...but it was close to the top.  Was I trying to garner public sympathy?  Not in the least.  I was in pain and since my writing comes straight from the heart (usually) there was no way to cover it up.  The reason I felt compelled to publish something was similar to the reason I felt it necessary to tell my boss and co-workers why I would be gone for a while.  Hub pages is part of my daily life and I consider quite a few of you to be my friends.  Never met you, would probably not even recognize you if I strolled by...but friends nonetheless.  To disappear inexplicably for even a week seemed....thoughtless somehow.  Especially when I'm on here for at least a portion of every day.
    
    Whether or not Ashwin's girl actually passed away or not...or whether he is actually who he says he is...well, I'm torn.  My first instinct is to always believe a person until proven otherwise.  Unfortunately, I was the victim once of a person that was a compulsive liar in the game of Everquest.  I thought he was truly a friend...and during Hurricane Katrina, when he suddenly was absent and I believed he lived in New Orleans...I was in a complete panic trying to find out if he was okay or not.  Which is how I eventually found out the truth.  I'm pretty good at the Nancy Drew stuff and I found his father in Washington State through vague pieces of information that my friend had dropped here adn there in conversation.  The father was really surprised that I thought his son was in New Orleans.  I never told his father why I thought this...it was enough to know that I'd been fooled.
    
    So I'm staying out of this one...
    
    If Ashwin is real, then I'm not about to add to his misery.  And if Ashwin is not...then eventually the truth will come out.  Until then, I'm not about to trust a source as suspicious as this "part26" either.

    I'm with zsuzsy, this whole thing comes off like someone in desperate need of attention.  Seems completely obvious and has seemed suspect since the original post regarding "my girl" was put up.  Unfortunately, saying so runs the risk of making one look like some evil-uncaring a-hole, so nobody calls people on it for fear of their instincts being wrong. 
    
    I suppose kindness and giving the benefit of the doubt is always the best course to take though: if someone did pass on, well, the need for kindness is obvious.  And if it's just some idiot with no self esteem jerking our chains, well, he probably needs the kindness too.

    I have been following this for the last couple of days as best I could. I must admit, I did find it strange that someone could take the time to sign onto hubpages - even if just leaving a short message - upon learning of such a tragedy. I mean, don't you have to go somewhere? It's your fiance, for heavens sake. That being said, I have swapped comments with Ashwin on a number of occasions and he seems like a nice guy. Now, all these people are supposed to be the same person or maybe a couple of people posing as many. It is interesting. I don't really know why someone would feel the need to do that, but who knows?

    mistyhorizon2003posted 16 years ago

    I agree this is a potential minefield in terms of whether or not the accusations are true, but what ever happened to, "innocent until proven guilty?"
    
    Also, I know it may be considered a little odd for someone to post straight after losing a spouse, but who is to say how each person will react to bereavement! I doubt anyone knows until faced with it, and not everyone is the same. After my first Husband died I posted on the Internet within 12 hours to tell my online friends what had happened. I needed their support and to know they were thinking and praying for me. Someone in Ashwin's situation who alledgedly has no parents or siblings, may ONLY have his friends to rely on, which is a sad situation most of us are not in the position of, as most of us would have family support in a time like this.
    
    I truly hope my sympathies to Ashwin are not proven to be wrong, but having seen how "Part26" has conducted himself, both to Ashwin, Anitha1978, and anyone who has supported them, (creating fake ID's very close to actual Hubber's who disagreed with him ID's, with gloating comments to boot), I am inclined to give Ashwin my support and belief in what has happened. Call it an instinct, but I feel Part26 has simply been, troublemaking, spiteful and vindictive, and has not offered any evidence that what has apparently happened to Ashwin's fiance is untrue. All he has proven to me is that quite possibly Ashwin did allow Anitha1978 to use his Adsense code, which is not a crime as far as I am aware. If indeed it is proven to be true that Ashwin has lost his fiance in a hit and run accident, then I am betting Part26 will go very quiet and not come forward to apologise, even if presented with a copy of the actual death certificate.
    
    I am also disturbed by the title of this thread, "I'm Lovin' it", as again, if what Ashwin has said is proven to be true, this is a pretty awful title to give to a thread.
    
    I kind of hope Ashwin does come forward and publish proof in the form of a death certificate or similar on a Hub, although if his words are true, he shouldn't have to. At least this would put this Part26 to shame.
    
    I always like to give people the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise, (sometimes more fool me for doing so), but I prefer to be that way than a cynic who doubts everyone's intentions until proven otherwise.
    
    There is also another Hub now out there about the kind of Hubs Ashwin has previously published about Women's bodies and the exploitation of women. Whilst I totally agree this is a contraversial subject, I also feel it is unfair to associate the two subjects together. Whether you agree or disagree with the nature of Ashwin's Hubs, surely if what has apparently happened to his fiance is true, then he certainly didn't deserve that level of punishment, and nor did his fiance. As a women I am less bothered by the content of his Hubs than I am by the way he is being treated by Part26, and if his hubs are immoral in any way it is a separate issue for another time and place. I also feel it is not possible thesedays to tell if girls in photos are underage or not, so it is an open accusation that may be incorrect to say that they "appear to be underage", again, partly because of what "Part26" has said in previous posts.
    
    To all of my friends/ fellow Hubbers reading this, I do not intend this as an attack on any comments you may have made I do not totally agree with. I simply wanted to make my point and hope to encourage more lateral thinking by some who may be "jumping on the doubting bandwagon". If I am proven wrong in the trust I have placed in Ashwin, then I apologise in advance.
    
    Thank you for reading.

Only thing she did was to find out similar photos  and edited and put her name in it claiming that she was the one in it. I never vanish and this drama will have No End Untill the Wolf is killed.
