In a attempt to get past the silly feud that both of our forums have engaged in in one form or another since The Torch made its appearance late last year, I am making the suggestion that maybe we both tone down any and all public mention of the other. Any thing we might say that is directed toward the others forum or individuals with the forum group should maybe be left to private discussions.

It would be safe to safe that a majority of members in both forums don't agree on much, with that said there really isn't much of a reason to post public threads saying as much...Speacially when the thread title is suggesting inflammatory conduct regarding members of either forum..... Its basically beating a dead horse that is long since dead.

I would also ask that anyone wishing to go to either forum simply to do a 'drive by' so to speak, to not to. In the end all it does is causes more friction that does nothing for anyone. We've been the victim of more then a few 'drive byes' over the course of the Torches life time. Some were obviously members of the Soup, some may not of been... those we will simply give the benefit of the doubt. If the Soup has been victim to any 'drive byes', then my apologies.

In other words, lets just agree to disagree.

Isn't the Soup "all gone?"
I don't know. Never been there. Nuff said.
Sounds like a very reasonable position, Dave. When I created the Ludington Torch, I envisioned it as a competitor and alternative to Ludington Talks, not as a competitor or alternative to Lakeshore Soup. That group's founder decided that non-liberal voices had became too entrenched in its borders and had re-established it into a group appealing to a more narrow part of the political spectrum.

As many of our early and more vocal members had been on Lakeshore Soup, the group Soup Rehab was created to allow them to discuss issues we may have had with LS or its members. Unfortunately, even Dave's attempt at even-handedness with this thread may ignite bad feelings from volatile members of either site.

Mary, Lakeshore Soup is not "all gone", but it has moved at the advent of mandatory Ning paysites. I wish them luck and prosperity.
Too bad luck and prosperity do not grow on vines, vines of the grapes of wrath! Those whom sow those vines, eventually become entangled in them, imho. And then fall into the abyss. Lakeshore poop may prevail, at the hands of their own soupiness/silliness! A VERY NICE OLIVE BRANCH THOUGH! NOT VERY ACCEPTABLE TO THOSE ON THE OTHER SIDE THOUGH! OF REASONABLENESS AND FAIRNESS IN THIS LIFE!
As I see it, this is a one-sided feud kept ignited by those over at da Soup. Just witness the hullaballoo created by moi when I recently tried to join. Mr. Behr Gone Wild brought it up for discussion in public, divulged my own private message to him (didn't he have a cow about this when it happened between his public argument with Angela?) , and then the Giblets and Gumbos attacked, attacked, attacked our site, particularly me and Aquaman.

When I read your post earlier Dave, I figured I could respond nicely like you and X, but anything I say is read over and over again by those people, and then they interpret what I tried to say in their own simple-minded manner. We here at the Ludington Torch are grown-ups, not gro.ups.
Yupper Edie, looks like you're not going to get your membership card approval over at the Poop Soup, YAWN! The Mighty all-knowing OZ and his munchkins, just got around to voting on your entry, I saw peaking into the koolade chat. Even the once cool-headed objective and intelligent friend Nicole/Coco/cuckoo had some wild punches for ya. Can tell she's brainwashed now too. Then there is possum faced Casey Casem, still calling me names like fish stick dickless, shouldn't go there, that gal don't hunt! I see you took a new avatar, seems that guy's recent demise left gf penniless, soon to be homeless too, with a defunct business included, and lots of outstanding bills unpayable. That in itself says a lot for his true character and smart planning for the future. But, there is hope, Dave is still loved, maybe a touch more than in the biblical way too for all we know? Valiant try Dave, maybe too soon yet for such peace and harmony by the liberals over yonder, still festering with too much hate mongering over nothing but ancient history and weak hollow debate.
Well, that was another quickie by the poop administrator. Seems he's not looking over here, could care less, yet, in less than 10 hours after my last post here, he zipped up the transparent Soup Poop again. Can't see what the poop gang is NOT saying or posting about the Torchers now again. Ring familiar? Paranoia, big destroyer! Checkmate Dave! For our side again, har.
