Valerie, why are you all of a sudden leaving? Is it because of that stupid
mnet agora conference item that parodied your baby diary? Somebody was having
fun and entered responses in a lot of known grexers names. I for one didn't
even know that item existed until I got your email.
If thats not it, couldn't you at least explain? And why is it necessary to
delete all your posts you've ever made? Suddenly you don't like grex so much
you don't want anyone to know you've ever been here? what gives?

NB: It looks like her script *is* removing her comments from this conference.
That is a huge loss to us all. Almost as large as the loss of her.

Apparently, it's removing the comments from items linked between this
conference and other conferences.
Not much sense in reading other conferences until her scripts finish; items
are continually being added to the list of those with "new" responses.

Yeah, it's basically DoSing the system. Someone should block the IP address
being used to attack Grex.

I'm sorry to see valerie leave the system. I can understand people
getting burned out on being staff, and it sounds like she was feeling
that way long before the recent incident, but I hate to see it progress
to the point where they feel they need to leave the system entirely.

Re resp:9: I don't think it's all their fault. Valerie said earlier
that part of the reason she decided to risk killing her own item is that
she no longer cared that much about keeping her staff position. I think
she was just plain burned out on it.

Metaphor: it's like going to the Habitat for Humanity house that you
were helping to build and pulling out the nails you pounded in.

I am sad that valerie felt that she had to / wanted to leave grex, in
apparently every manner. I know that I have gotten help from her in the past,
as I am sure that others have, and that resource will be missed by all.
And I have to think that deep down, somewhere, valerie is very upset that she
has had to give up grex.
That being said, even though it is her right to scribble everything that she
ever entered, and it is her right not to care what bad effect that will have
on grex, I find that blanket scribble to have been a somewhat childish act.
Especially in fundamentally technical conferences such as info and web.
I think she could have departed with a bit more grace. However, it was her
right to leave in any manner she wished.
