 GOODBYE TO YOU ALL... September 19, 2006 10:52 AM

I would like to say my farewells to all of you. It has been one of the most interesting times of my life....BUT also one of the most horrendous times of my life and I dont deserve to take anymore bullshit from ONE MAN living and lurking in Care pretending to be an avid Animal Lover!!. Not to mention his cohorts of a phoney Children's Welfare Org. crap-mongerers!. I think you ALL know who I am talking about in both respects!?.

I WILL DEFINITELY MISS THE GREAT MEMBERS HERE..AND WILL MISS THE WONDERFUL FRIENDSHIPS I MADE DURING THESE LAST 2 AND A HALF MONTHS!

I will be of course CLOSING DOWN ALL MY 5 C2C GROUPS AS I SEE IT NO POINT IN LOOKING BACK AT PAIN. NO POINT LEAVING YOU ALL HERE WHEN I HAVE NO INTENTION OF EVER RETURNING!!. I WILL NEVER COME BACK!

Thanking you all once again and I hope alot of you will follow me to my new home on the world wide web at www.myspace.com. I have just posted a new Network message to all my friends on my friends list!

PLEASE DO TAKE THE TIME TO READ. NO NEED FOR ANY COMMENTS AS MY ANSWER WILL STILL BE THE SAME. I AM SO SORRY.

KILL THAT ASSHOLE AND HIS CRONIES ( AND I DAMN WELL MEAN THAT! )...THEN I MIGHT CONSIDER JUST TAKING A LONG BREAK FROM HERE AND RETURNING WHEN ALL HAS BE DONE!

ON THE OTHER-HAND, DONT BOTHER TO DO ANYTHING TO 'HIM'  & HIS CRONIES.......AND 5 OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS HERE KNOW WHO 'HIM' IS!. I'D RATHER LEAVE IN PEACE AND NOT 2B HASSLED,HAGGLED OR VERBALLY ABUSED ONLINE AS WELL IN REAL LIFE ANYMORE. PLS NOOOOOO MORE...!

I think we all deserve to know who this stalking is so we can notify our other groups! Does anyone know who he/they are? Thanks bunches!  [ send green star]  [ accepted]

Ross please,please do not close this group.Both Simone and I have offered to take it over.This group has come too far to be closed down.There are many good people here who want to continue the good fight.Please think it over my friend.

If Ross does not want to reveal the names of the people that have hurt him so badly then that is his choice.Please do not write to him asking him to do so.Just remember Ross for who he is-a wonderfully passionate and devoted man.Devoted to his family and to the causes he believes in.

Dear Ross,

Did not have the chance to share with you, you sound to me someone passionate and dedicated to great causes. It is a pity for the care2 community to loose you.

I want to share the following little quote:

"Anger is the most impotent of passions. It effects nothing it goes about, and hurts the one who is possessed by it more than the one against whom it is directed." (Edward Charendron)

Maybe you'd reconsider your decision. Read how many friends cares for you.

Hugs.

Benny

Something for you all.... 11:17 AM
my good friends and others who didnt manage to write anything here..

I know my decision to leave...is going to break many hearts...and Im not talking about in the romantic sense...k?. Believe me when I tell you all..that it breaks my heart too! I just dont tell you everything thats churning inside me right now. Im A TOTAL MESS RIGHT NOW...& I really need to concentrate on all my projects!!!

It hasnt been an easy decision! But Ill give you all this to seriously consider and I think this is as fair as I can be. But before I continue, Id like to say thanks to DEbs for your wise comment. Its true.Dont make BIG decisions when youre angry. I coudlnt have put it better. But having said that Debs and others here and in all my c2c grps, my decsion was made when I actually wasnt that angry. In fact..I got angrier when I thought things thru..more and more and more. Til I reached this juncture..

So...this is my proposal to you all :

Pls listen up

If I get  at LEAST 44 private messages asking me to stay...from henceforth..

THEN I PROMISE TO STAY. TO DATE I HAVE ONLY GOT IT FROM A HANDFUL OF FRIENDS. NOW..DONT GET ME WRONG. THIS IS NOT A GAME WITH ME. I REALLY NEED TO KNOW....FOR ONE LAST TIME! THIS IS SUGGESTED TO ME BY SOMEONE CLOSE TO HEART WHOM IVE BEEN WITH FOR 20 YEARS OF MY LIFE,....WANNA GUESS WHO THIS PERSON IS? NO NEED TO GUESS...I THINK ITS PRETTY MUCH SELF-EXPLANATORY!?? ( Geez, did I spell that correctly?..LOL!! ) And I got an "A" for English all my life...Ha Ha!

But I am dead serious about the above proposal. This isnt playing with anyones feelings or emotions. This IS NOT SOME SORT OF MIND GAME..OKAY?!

Whoever reads this message...please post it in ALL my other four c2c groups asap. I hope whoever it is wont mind helping me on this?! I dont have the time to write it again and again in all my c2c groups.

I repeat: at LEAST 44 private messages!!.

* 44 adds up to 8 which in Chinese ...means GOOD LUCK & GOOD FORTUNE! *

Thanks for reading this.

Ross

PLEASE DON'T LEAVE - THE ANIMALS NEED YOU June 10, 2007 12:47 PM

if you leave then the asshole stalker WINS.  We can't let that happen.  There are plenty of computer nerds (and I use the term lovingly) who could track this creature down and jam his equipment for good.  There is no such thing as anonymus on the net.

We love and need people like you, and you are the reason I have redoubled my own efforts.  The animals need you.

I just joined today and I don't know anyone in the group very well, but my opinion is that if you leave and close the group, then whoever it is that is causing all the trouble wins. I have spent almost all my life fighting to protect animals, and I know it's hard and that a lot of people work against that, but I can't sit by and not do something to protect them, that is why all my furry friends living with me are rescues. So what I'm trying to say  is don't shut down the group.  [ send green star]  [ accepted]
