Unitum historiae apud dolor contemptus et persecutione

Returning to the Vine

I'm writing this partly to get out of Newsvine "newbie-jail" so I can post links in my comments once again (what a pain in the arse) and partly to answer the question I've gotten in a few emails about whether or not I'm really me.  There was an individual that opened a Newsv …

Newsvine is against manners, decency, and treating others as you would want to be treated (UPDATED).

Most of you know me as the one who always wishes others "have a good day" at the end of my posts.  You also know that I always say it and mean it.   I have done this on all my comments since I started on Newsvine in September 2008.   I asked about this to …

Okay, What Happened?

The other day, I was talking to Mom (who many on Newsvine know as Pat N) and she told me she is no longer a part of the Vine. She told me her side of the story, but (being her daughter and therefore acquiring a few of her traits) I would like to hear multiple sides of the story.

Let's Continue Where We Were With the e-mail Discussion

Update: This article is no longer accepting comments. Thanks to the ones who commented.     First of all, as viners, we all get to have our say through meta articles.

Yet another gaping Newsvine credibility gap

Any of you that have been following some of the meta explosion articles that erupted in the past few weeks may have noted how I have listed several of the glaring issues with the quality of the Newsvine site.  Among them but not limited to are:

Pat N...Shame on Them, I Hope You Will Reconsider and Come Back, But If Not, Who Could Possibly Blame You?

Above is one of the most vile emails as I have ever witnessed on NV. I have received a few types of emails too, from those on the left, but this is the most reprehensible one I have ever had the displeasure of witnessing.
