Oh.
So it's all my fault now for disappearing?
I don't think that Dally is stating, over even implying, that. She appears to be stating that one or more others used your absence as an opportunity to render certain false impressions.

Others paranoia is not my responsibility dear.
Once I was made aware of what was going on, I made the effort to post and let everyone know it was all [censored].
Indeed, you did. Are you saying, therefore, that the following statement is "[censored]"?
"Pete, I can't be bothered finding the quote but Om did leave because JMW threathened to 'out' him[.]"
Yeah, as much as I hate to support that as I don't want to offend anyone (and I don't even have any idea who posted that)
[censored] is [censored], regardless of who utters it, yes?
Of course, some [censored] is just teasing. Some is malicious. It seems to me that direct, accusatory statements, without a hint of parody or sarcasm, are probably the latter.

It's good to have you around.
Cheers. :-) -- Peace! Om
