When the same isn't the same.
Forums:
I found this on another anti-website and she was treated politely, even if hers was an opposing viewpoint. Of course, no one thought she was Marietta, either. I was pleased to find it because she was told so many of the same things I was... things I could have come to believe were simply my imagination. There are few things that I believe 100%, and that includes AA, but I believed enough to have been helped...

Have a great day, everyone!

Was that an AA "gaslight" attemp clara?
Interesting choice of giving no information and leaving suspicion on many levels. You have learned much from the prophet Bill Wilson and how to sew the seeds of the cult of Alcoholics Anonymous he built. Have you been contacted by the person who told you to "cease and desist" as your other personality of cribbisque on other websites yet?
(Note the reverse "gaslight", in my post, it was done on purpose as an example for CLARAfication [sic])

I don't know why you'd feel
I don't know why you'd feel this way. Her post was warmly received at Massive's site.
I never figured that out about Annie. I am sure that you never noticed that she did the same to the others that took up for Allison as well as you didn't know their blognames. She was very angry that this woman's participation in a self help group didn't shame her and benefitted her at court despite being a member herself! Poor woman followed me to no fewer than 7 sites, most to which she had never posted, all because of a website that was shut down by court order, thus ending her online clubhouse. What it did for me (and others) was to show that through these programs or others, you can be restored to the world in a respectable fashion even if you were a drunk.

huh
I thought you were trying to post a link to a comment from somewhere else. This is a continuation of some side conversation or more he said/she said internet scavenger hunt nonsense? Not interested. It's become like a friggin high school cafeteria around here.

It was a response to a post
It was a response to a post JR's hunt copied from another board. Perhaps I should delete my explanation post.

Why would cribbisque get involved with Allison and Anthony?
cribbisque was obviously spouting AA rhetoric and decided to stick her nose into a relationship in Philadelphia, with Allison and Anthony Morelli. She followed the couple to numerous websites and harassed everyone involved using the teachings of the cult of Alcoholics Anonymous as leverage. Is this what you call a narcissist?

(Note: my post is what can be considered an AA "gaslight" that is added for extra CLARAfication [sic] to give an example of the tactics of the members of the cult of Alcoholics Anonymous)

Follow up on it, JR. You'll
Follow up on it, JR. You'll see that they aren't a couple at all, and his tactics are less than admirable and each one backfired, which was what brought the public into it. It was covered in HuffPo and I responded to it with my typical blogflair. The Phillyburbs posts were more interesting because news coverage is always higher the closer it is to the actually happening. Thanks, J, I had forgotten that one.
It was rather meanspirited to use a person's fellowship status against her, but she won.

"Impartial jury", JR, and if
"Impartial jury", JR, and if you can manage to read all 275 posts to that article, you can get a better understanding. It's rather unfair to judge any post without some background. It helps to be diplomatic. I am not sure if posting to a site makes someone a narcissist or.... just someone that reads alot and responds in the comment section.
It would be interesting to know what Penny thinks of the first amendment angle the father tries to spin, but the fact is all of it hindered him if custody was his real goal.
