your explanation adds much to the clarity. hang in there colonel. alas you'd be better of if you hadn's retired from the AirForce, cuz at least in a court martial things would be cleared up prompto!  

btw, do you have a copy of this thread he/she mentioned?  i wonder how one gets this copy, if not from TBD Staff/Moderators themselves?  and then how such a copy that's passed around via email maintains its "provenance" (its veracity)?

hell, if i know ... i just like playing Sherlock Holmes!  LOL

"I have emailed Thirsty the thread from that other board that has since been deleted with both of Colhogans posts saying I asked him for nothing." -- Ashley

Let the truth be told,

I am going to take you all thru this once and once only in an effort to make sense of everything that happened and hopefully answer all of the questions. I don't intend to post after this with any further explanation as this needs to be put to rest. This post will address all events related to this incident.

The very first point that should be made clear is this: COLHOGAN is not to blame for the behavior of the guy in the room. The rat bastard that threatened Ashley is to blame. Unfortunately, he can’t be identified by board identity eiither here or on the oTher BoarD.

Fact, COLHOGAN posted a review of Ashley in the databases of both boards that was far too explicit than it needed to be.

Fact, Ashley had an outcall appointment with someone who said he visits Boston twice a year.

Fact, Ashley has not dealt with this issue on the other board's "ladies board" as it has been compromised and has leaks with regard of postings there.

Fact, the policy of that ladies board is that no personal information is allowed to be posted on their discussion board.

Fact, Ashley was advised by a very prominent lady to keep this information to herself for the moment. The rationale was that she should wait until security issues were addressed there within that venue.

Fact, the compromise of that ladies board is documented very thoroughly and most notably on the District of Columbia board there.

Fact, this person didn't receive the same move for move session that COLHOGAN received. It was at this point that he became irritated and grabbed her and threatened her. Ashley was able to diffuse the situation and leave the appointment.

Fact: Ashley has been a very low profile lady in this hobbying community. She has chosen to not post on the boards unless it was announcing an incall. Her thing has been to be very low key and remain the courtesan type lady that many of us seek and enjoy.

Fact: The a$$hole that tried to coerce her wasn't mindful of the two most basic rules of this hobby, first, being mindful of a lady's limits and secondly that of "YMMV"

Fact: I wanted to come to the boards and speak to this but was asked by Ashley not to do so.

Fact: I had tried to address my issues with COLHOGAN via e-mail in June and after no response, ours ended up in a pissing match on the private board of the other board.

Fact, after significant debate there COLHOGAN stepped up and apologized for his review.

Opinion, the characterization in the mind of some as an assault may have been severe.

Fact, it was COLHOGAN that posted and used the word "assault" Never did I say that as I referred to it as it was in my mind, it was a potentially dangerous incident.

Fact, I feel that there are hobbyists out there that resent my significant activity level and the ladies that I see. It has also been evident that there are local ladies that have attacked me as I choose to play almost exclusively with traveling ladies and have am not filling their dance card.

Fact and Opinion, Ashley has made it a practice to keep to her self and not socialize with other ladies. I think there are those among the ladies that are envious of her situation and some of my postings about our adventures together.

Fact, there are other parties involved here with their own agendas and interests that have played into this and I am not going to divulge names. There is a part of me that feels I should identify a lady that is egging on posters to stir the shit over here. I will not stoop to her level and do the same, at this point. (by the way, I am not referring to an obvious lady)

Fact, I posted that I was glad to see COLHOGAN apologize as it took courage to do so. I also wished him luck and said that I looked forward to reading his reviews in the future.

Opinion, I think that COLHOGAN took a lot of criticism and was manipulated by someone(s) into retracting his apology and taking his position.

FACT, COLHOGAN has posted that Ashley has tried to extort money from him. This is NOT and I repeat NOT true. I COPIED and PASTED the thread from the other board where COLHOGAN posts TWICE (2) that he offered Ashley money and she REFUSED.

Fact, the behavior of some posters here was nothing more than despicable. It really irks me that they buy into some bs that is being sent their way. I would say that they should be thinking that if a lady would share information with them, then she is probably sharing theirs too.

Opinion, it should be obvious to everyone here that COLHOGAN is of the agenda in his continual posting to try and convince everyone that he isn't wrong. One would expect this tactic in trying to keep himself from potentially being considered by ladies as someone they wouldn't want to see.

I really resent the fact that some have made this accusation against me and Ashley with regard of this incident.  

When are we all going to learn that these are nothing but message boards? The inherent problem with these boards is that they are just a collection of people sitting behind a computer screen posting via a made up name(s)and the anonymity that comes with this allows people to be something/someone they may not actually be in real life.

Anonymous members of a virtual community are not truly accountable for their actions. It is only over time that one gains the respect of the community as they are measured by their actions. All too often these boards are nothing but a instrument for those insecure people to instigate trouble.

Regards to all,

Yawn, Stretch, Burp! Wake Me When This Is Over

This melodrama is starting to becoming boring now.  Hopefully it is winding down and will be out of everybody's system in another day or two.

Good job in the moderation, Thirsty!
