A good TGIF Thump!

thanks....

Welcome Back Pinky,

I just wanted to say I'm so sorry! For the longest time, I have thought you to be an elf. I wish for you to accept my apology and extreme regret for this obvious social foepaw. This transgression along with a statement that occurred during an earlier post (associated with the usage of the term 'mouse trap') was not intended as a threat to you or anyone of your species. Further, these two occurrences of seeming misconduct are actually unrelated incidents and not part of any predatory pattern.

As soon as I was informed of these errors by a concerned third party, the related post was immediately deleted. All that have responded to the post have been informed of this misconception and have been also informed that "I, in no way, condone the use of this crude and very cruel device." Some have even mentioned openly that it was my love of cats as being the primary motivator for what could only be seen as 'a threat to all rodentia'. Please, rest assured that this is not the case.

As ___In2My.Net___ Team Captain, it is my responsibility to represent and respect ALL species that grid here effectively, without bias or threat of harm. Whether in my team or not, even if indirectly. Furthermore, all possible steps are being taken to prevent such species assignment identification problems in the future. This includes you as well as all rodentia, bovid, avian, canidae, ichthyoid, feluccas, amphibia, reptilia, primate, elf, fairy and other vertebrates; all the way to responding to the needs, customs and the civil structures of various species of invertebrates, insecta and arachnids. In addition, special provisions have been made to include corporeal and non-corporeal life from other planets (sentient or otherwise).

It is my fervent desire, as well as the desire of the ___In2My.Net___ team, to respect the civil, moral and spiritual needs of this community and it's constituency, in a positive and efficacious way. This list of affects identified within this constituency include, but is not limited to: race, gender (current or past), sexual orientation (current or past), ethnicity, religion, skin/fur/hair/scale color, placement and/or size of ears/eyes/nose (if applicable), political affiliation(s), length of tail(s) (whether or not reticulated), antenna(s) or other sensory appendages, number of limbs or extremities (including opposable forefinger(s)), length and/or number of horn(s)/antler(s)/fang(s) or dentate (both in position and alignment), relative physical overall size (whether or not it is natural for your species), natural migratory range, and/or nationality or point of origin (on earth or elsewhere).

I wish, at this time, to make a special inclusion for various fermented food products, funguses and other microbes. Breaking down the barriers that exist between the cheese, mouse, cat and human sects. With hopes of bringing about a successful consortium.

Again, I wish to express my deepest regrets Pinky, but if you or any rodent here should feel that compensation is in order due to personal and/or property damage because of these inappropriate actions, please feel free to contact me at your earliest possible convenience. I am sure that we can find a course the will bring effective reconciliation, without the need for lengthy and costly legal proceedings.

I will look forward to further communication in respect to this matter in the near future.

Kindest regards,

Courine

PS, If I find that mouse sized keyboard on the Internet again, I will pick up one for you. I'm sure it will reduce the fatigue caused by having to jump from key to key when pumping out your posts.

Oh, and Royden: Ask Teb where he was before starting this team. Lets just say, the post-pardom depression lasted about a week, as he was one of my better crunchers back at grid.org.

The question I really have is: Do I owe you an apology post as well?
