No problem,

I think the first part of your post is very helpful and good natured, and I think it represents the problems that a lot of posters have with her. The last part of your post is basically a repetition of that advice, so it's fine. There're some problems with the two points below.

where we run into a real problem is when we combine the above attitude with a certain misapprehension of the facts. That is this, and it is important: You assume that being the wife of Ed Miller automatically makes you someone with credibility in the 2+2 community. This is manifestly untrue; his credibility does not extend to yours, and you must earn your own respect as a poster.

When has she shown any assumption that her relation to Ed Miller gives her any extra credibility? I haven't seen all of her posts, but unless she somewhere pulled a "I'm Ed Miller's wife, bitch" in an argument, this point holds no water. She's being herself, she may get a free ride because of her hubbie's status, but that's not her fault.

Do you even play poker? Do you know how to play poker? Not being much of a player is of course no bar to being a welcome, contributing member at 2+2. But as you make no strategy posts, and your non-strategy posts so often consist of berating the board for its Shameful Behavior and Treatment of Something or Somebody, and calling people "pussy-asses" for no apparent reason whatsoever, it would seem to me that you should be wondering not who [censored] thinks he is, but, rather, who you think you are. Why should you be welcome at this forum? Indeed, why do you associate at all with people for whom you seem to have so much contempt and anger?

When was the last time you made a strategy post? When was the last time Censored made a strategy post? When was the last time I made a strategy post? If it doesn't matter, why bring it up? She was exiled from OOT for OOT posts. "You don't play poker so you'd better make sure you're real popular in OOT." Come on.

Also, she doesn't have to be concerned with earning anyone's welcome here, and neither should anyone else. That, I think, was the point of her whole mods message. The inmates running the asylum thing has gone a bit too far and some mods are taking themselves to seriously.

She's wondering who Censored thinks he is because he's the one presuming to tell her what she can and can't do on someone else's site. She doesn't have to wonder who she thinks she is, she's just a poster on the site, whether the people who post here like her or not. Again, it's nice advice to help her increase her popularity, but why should she concern herself with her popularity?
