Without getting into any of the specific back and forth, this might be a good time to remember that if you think anyone's posts detract more than they contribute, you can mute them by clicking on their username and then clicking "toggle user visibility" at the bottom.

Thanks for the reminder. As soon as I saw the comment, I knew who it was.

SoCalMama...and the red flags??

The red flag is you are new to posting on the board and your first post is about being dropped from a MSC. So firstly, since this is your first post, there is no credibility established yet. A lot of times people create an account here to complain and accuse MSC's of things on the board. However, when push comes to shove, the claims they make turn out to be inaccurate or they have done something to warrant the MSC's behavior.

So the lesson here is - establish some credibility on the board by posting and commenting before you decide to make a post that puts a MSC in a negative light.

Welcome to the 3 digit IQ club.

You’d think it was obvious, but not here apparently?

I just want to say - I explained the red flags because what is obvious to one person is not always obvious to another. Everyone has their own perspective and background which leads them to different conclusions when faced with the same problem. While I agree there are some red flags here - the poster did genuinely seem to want to know what you were talking about. I feel that the explanation is necessary if one is to make accusations or say something someone might find cryptic as "so many red flags!"

I'm not posting this to attack, but to perhaps remind that not everyone is the same and explanations are an easy way to clear up miscommunications and misunderstandings. Let's all have a little more empathy.

So let's clear the air here so everyone is on the same page...

1. Nixkit hit it on the head when they said "The red flag is you are new to posting on the board and your first post is about being dropped from a MSC. So firstly, since this is your first post, there is no credibility established yet. A lot of times people create an account here to complain and accuse MSC's of things on the board.

2. When ColoKate brought up that Market Force gets rid of people over 65, you replied under a different alias (that was a bunch of letters together that didn't spell anything) and said you shopped all over for Market Force and had to come off the road to care for your elderly mother. The repeated reference of yourself in the first person told me it was you posting under a different alias. I'm not sure why you didn't just leave it, but now you are raising a red flag with the post below.

What red flags?? I'm new to the site.

4. Does anyone remember BillBryaninCarthage, Bloogers, and a bunch of other nicknames they came up with? They came on the board complaining solely about Market Force, crossed the line, got removed, and then created different nicknames in order to post more nonsense? As I recall, they were on the road shopping for Market Force also.

I am in no way accusing the OP of being this person reincarnated, but I have to say that it brings back memories when someone who has traveled for Market Force creates a new name to post a complaint about them.

Takeaway for OP...this is a pretty friendly board, thanks for coming back, we'd love to have you, but perhaps stick to just one name in the future.

Look, there are many people here who have created multiple IDs for nefarious reasons. I'm not here to help them out.
