I am currently being threatened by my former employer (they are "compelled [to] take action against [me]") for the way I am running ANN, and how this allegedly violates my employment contract with them ("interfere _in any manner_ with any business relationship between the Company and any of its customers or business partners"). This might entail drastic changes to the relative freedom of speech ANN has always allowed its visitors, or ANN might close down altogether. Updated 10:00 CET.

I am sorry about that. Let me say that that was not my intention. I just wanted to point out that your actions *HAS HAD SEVERE* consequences, to *OTHER* people than BBRV, even if that was not your original intention. You are not a deamon, your'e just pissed off. But other people are pissed off too, but acting differently ...

Trust me, I know. Actually, I believe I was one of the very first visitors on your website when you opened the doors. I have been here ever since. I have posted under other names than takemehomegrandma earlier, and I believe I was the top #8 poster in the "21st century hall of fame" (statistics around new year's eve). I know what ann is, and what importance it has had. |
