Princess Pasha "Stormmee" wrote in message ... you know that may be part of the problem, maybe we need a journalist kitty to go anna interveiw sum of da owldetimerz so newer houses can getta know demselvez... Tiger Ellie wrote in message ... Absolutely not, which is why I specifically said I was not referring to anyone who asked questions about it. It just so happened that Mietze resigned her position in a thread you started, and I replied to that. I think the Jellicle Ball is a lovely tradition that every year brings out many "old-timers" that are not usually able to post and I agree that it would be sad to see it go. I'm concerned that some here felt that we were inundating the group with stuff that didn't pertain to them, but without those who have gone before, this group would not exist. Some of the "old-timers" were here when the group actually started, and began the tradition of the Jellicle Ball, and some of the other meowchat things that are still going on today. I came along a little later. We all share a love of this group whether we're able to access regularly or only once a year. Mietze's work for the group through these many years has been above and beyond the call of "dooty" and I just hope everyone appreciates what a difficult job it has been. Purrs, Ellie An I fink Mietze and Auntie Melissa deserf uh big round uf fangful apaws! Princess Pasha, standing and applauding Phoebe & Emma also stand and applaud "Granby" wrote in message ... I hope that by asking questions it is understood I did not mean to deminish any worth of anyone to this site. It is a wonderful place to be. I have a vision problem and don't have a screen reader at this time so it is hard to read all the history. To not have a Jellica Ball would be a great loss. wrote in message oups.com... Hello to all. My cats Oprah Anne and Princess Pasha played here for years (starting in 1996) when I was able to get rpcc through newsgroups via my dialup account. When that dried up, and I had to rely on the more difficult to follow internet groups on a dialup account, I had to give it up for a variety of reasons, the biggest of which was lack of time, although I did check in occasionally to see what was going on. This group was always about fun and love for me, and I can only hope it will remain so for all of you.. I just want to take a moment to acknowledge the wonderful work that Mietze (by way of Melissa) has done for all of us over these last years. She alone has remembered the names of those cats, dogs, ferrets, other furs (even a snake or two), and hoomins who have passed to the rainbow bridge during the past years. She puts their names in her Walk of Remembrance and has worked tirelessly on the behalf of all of us to keep the names of those we've loved alive forever. This year, my beloved Lissa's name was called after she died shortly after last year's Jellicle Ball. There has been no one more dedicated to this task than Mietze/Melissa has been, and I wish to thank her for that. That said (and I wish to make clear this is not aimed at those who simply asked questions), I would like to add that those few of you who have *complained* should be ashamed. If rpcc no longer wishes to have a Jellicle Ball, that's fine, but it is a sad day when some in a group of people who have supposedly been brought together by love of their furs should attack someone who has done nothing but try to give some consolation and solace to those who have lost their loved ones. I have to wonder if those who have been so quick to criticize will step up to the plate and remember those who go to the bridge this coming year.
