I agree with those that say let her use the CP list-serve to promote the
sales of her puppets! If you don't like this, simply scroll past it (as
others have suggested) or delete it (if you get these in single message
format). I think her puppets show great imagination and creativity; and
the promoting of CP is what we're all supposed to be about!
If it's the fact that she's making money (gasp!) is so offensive, then
let's also ban all CP sellers from hawking their wares- even in
signature files! Is this what we want? No- of course not...
The central theme of all net activities (World wide) is freedom of
expression- and this CP list-serve is that freedom with a CP slant.
While off-topic (ie, non-CP) discussion is frowned upon- anything CP
related should be embraced. Yes, that does include saying you don't
like Amy's posts- but imho, that does not include a demand that she stop
making them.
Amy- you keep making those puppets and keep telling us about them.
(Actually, a drosera rotundifolia or capillaris would probably make a
good puppet, too) Frankly, I think the list always shines when
CP-related variety is injected into the format; how often can
discussions of lumens or molds be truly inspiring? I used to have
enormous fun writing humorous CP related stories and posting them to the
list... and except for one or two oddballs (you know who you are) they
were very well recieved. Never stopped me from continuing on... so you
keep going, too!
Cheers,
Paul
