Who's the Immaturest of Them All?
Dear Becky,
Given your penchant for looking for, starting and participating in online drama directly related to myself and a few others, I’m sure you can understand why the staff and I do not feel comfortable with your presence at Lavish. If the tables were turned, I’m sure you would feel the same.
Your account will be removed from Lavish. Please do not attempt to re-register.
I recently joined Jenn’s board Lavish because I can’t really stand Snark and Inferno MB. During my time at Lavish I made no attempts whatsoever to start any drama and in my introduction post I even said that I was more than willing to overlook past tensions so that I might be able to post on the board. I posted a grand total of 8 posts on the board, not a single one inflammatory or insulting, and not more than a few minutes ago I received that email. Alex also joined and said that she wanted an older, more mature board to post on and Jenn replied to the thread welcoming her. She just got the same email from Jenn telling her she was no longer welcome.
The best part is where she mentions tables being turned. Like if she joined my board to post I would immediately ban her from posting. Except she did join Neonglow, posted once, never logged in again and was deleted. Not by myself, but by Brent when he went through deleting members with 0-1 posts who hadn’t logged in for a long time. No malice at all there. And if you remember I even extended an open invitation to continue commenting on my blog even though she had revoked my ability to comment on her website.
And what drama have I caused lately? I mean aside from lulzing at her obvious stupidity concerning laxatives she gave her children. Because really, if you do something stupid like that and post it on the internet for everyone to read, people will talk about it. Regardless of who you are. If you don’t realise that then you’re an idiot.
So, my emails to these two individuals and my quoting of that email here will be the only communication I have with them, and the only attention I pay to them.
Dammit
What really gets me is that Jenn actually swore off of us in general. Yet she joined our message board, reads both mine and Alex’s blogs, emailed me1 (albeit to help, for which I thanked her profusely) and I am fairly certain that she continues to read Neonglow MB2. I know she used to lurk on Disaster MB because she’d make references to things that we had said on there that she wouldn’t have known about if she hadn’t lurked.
For someone who is oh-so-wise about life and very mature she sure seems to be acting like a child. And I, the bored barely-out-of-teenage-years “adult” with a superiority complex, am the mature one in this scenario. I guess this just goes to show that popping a few kids out of your vagina and pretending that you have a real job scamming people on the internet won’t take you very far. But hey what do I know, I don’t have any kids and I’m a whole 4 years younger than her.
The real insult though came in a reply to the email that Alex sent her concerning her banishment from Lavish. In the email that Alex kindly shared with me because god we love it when there’s lulzable stupidity around, Jenn said that she had sent a peace offering in the form of an email containing suggestions for what I could do with my domain. Remember all the trouble I had with Netrillium? Yeah well as I said before, I thanked her nicely and while it was nice that she sent that to me, I didn’t take it as a peace offering because it wasn’t presented as such. I took it as, what I had hoped, a mature individual sucking it up to help someone who needed it. I wasn’t an ass about it and I certainly wasn’t going to stop talking about how completely and utterly devoid of braincells Jenn is.
The funny thing about this is that Jenn’s attempt to stop drama actually caused a lot more than it would have if she’d just left it well enough alone. Alex and I had a good chuckle over the disturbing “Cooter Status” thread Jenn created, and posted in often, on Lavish. But aside from that we were just enjoying having somewhere new to post at. We didn’t have access to any of the exclusive forums and we weren’t sharing any of the posts in the forum with anyone else. Not that there were many posts to share mind you, topic activity on Lavish is incredibly slow. Maybe Jenn should stop bahleeting people she doesn’t like from her board? And she should also probably stop thinking that Lavish is her very own personal safe haven on the internets made just for her and her friends (true story).
By the way, you’re more than welcome to post on NMB (unless one of the other admins has an issue with this, and I doubt they do because they’re both intelligent and mature) and comment here on my blog. Believe me when I say your invitation to do so will probably never be revoked.
1 I’m editing this to point out that the help, while appreciated, was not solicited. I did not ask her to help me nor did I even so much as hint that I would like her input. The idea that I should be ever-so-grateful for the little smidgen of courtesy she shoved my way is not only insulting, but it’s vomit-inducing.
2 This has been confirmed by her following a link to my blog in this completely unrelated thread on Neonglow MB: HOUSE SEASON FINALE.

The only thing I have to add to this brilliant tirade is that the “superiority complex” comment in that one particular snippet from Jenn’s blog was a beautiful example of the pot-kettle-black scenario. Believe it or not, I personally did not join Lavish in order to gain more invaluable insight into the supremely intriguing life of Jenn (if anything, any stranger with internet access is always welcome to all the juicy details of Jenn’s escapades on all five hundred of her blogs, so it’s not as if much, if anything, is ever left unsaid in that regard) – in fact, of my roughly 20-or-so posts, about 10 must have been in education/career-related threads, where I offered advice to very nice people who genuinely seemed pleased to be accepting it. So if Jenn thought that the whole purpose of my registration was to derive more lulz from her, she’s probably drinking a bit too much of that Superiority Complex Kool-Aid. But hey, at least now she got what she wanted – back into the limelight she goes!
I agree with Alex. The funny thing about people who crave drama is that they like to approach it with this holier-than-thou, I’m-too-mature-for-online-drama attitude. If that were the case, they could easily avoid it. They can either accept the fact that they’re drama queens or get past it, but otherwise, they only come across as immature.
I joined Lavish last year sometime but the account was never activated. I emailed Jenn about it and she said I hadn’t registered. So I re-registered yet again and weeks later it still never got re-activated. In the end I never went back.

Nicole, there is drama on Rebel from time to time, but it’s a different kind of board, really. In terms of analogies, the best I can come up with is Rebel being something like a mall, where mostly girls congregate to chat about clothes/boys/makeup/food. I like Rebel, I think it’s a good board that has a nice community and great resources.
