I can only conclude that the two happened reasonably closely in time, and several long-time Caledonians no longer own properties in Caledon. I am with you in making no inferences that the two events are related.Rhianon Jamesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13627163137265856251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1413879796435723871.post-67126142696922290182009-01-07T23:53:00.000-08:002009-01-07T23:53:00.000-08:00Maybe I'll have to reread my post.

From where I stood both myself and Miss Orr were suggesting that we should be at least trying to maintain the veneer of politeness in the face of the knowledge that we are modern people. Edward is (nearly) always in theme but I wouldn't say he's in character as for the most part he's the same as the typist, just with more proper behaviour.<BR/><BR/>I think Miss Orr's reference to an example of chat where someone poured alcohol over their naked body and invited people to lick it off might be the more extreme end of the scale but it's the sort of thing I don't want to see either in chat or in general public, Victorian theme or not. What people do inside the privacy of their own homes or skyboxes is none of my business, but posting just to try and be controversial is something to be discouraged I think.<BR/><BR/>Of course those who claim this is all a recent occurrence based on the OS sim fallout need to get out more.Edward Pearsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064707444626044745noreply@blogger.com
