An Open Letter to Sage

[Snusdog]

One quick point

Please don’t misunderstand my post. Mercy is not the same thing as a pardon. Mercy does not leave a situation uncorrected where correction is need. Instead mercy directs correction according to the goal of restoration rather than mere retribution.

Thus Rob’s remarks are spot on: of course we should expect courteousness and respect from all on the forum.

Bigblue’s post was constructive in its intent (regardless of whether you agree with it or not).

Mercy does not say to ignore any of these things. Rather mercy simply asks us all to stop and consider the outcome we are seeking.

[Roo]

I'm with you all the way dog.

[Snusdog]

I'm with you all the way dog.

Thanks bro!!!

i dont know if its necessary that he step down as mod, but he could really use a chill pill. ive always found him a bit quick to jump peoples shit for no reason. countless times he was all over chads ass and chad would just take it cause he lived in sages shadow. and that post the other day when he berated that guy for talking about his shipment taking so long, the time i turned down a suggestion of his that turned ugly, and all the times he would tell people not to talk about pact, because he didnt want to read about it, and act like hes speaking for everyone in the world. that shits annoying, but i mean, thats sage, ive gotten used to it. the only thing i have a problem with is if he continues to misuse his position as moderator. i really feel like he doesnt see himself the way many of us do.

just my 2 cents.

I actually live in Allendale, about half way between GR and GH. I've noticed a few Michiganders on here, but not many.

Finally I can get back to posting. I have been really buzy helping to come to a resolution to this situation and others and, although because of this, I have spent much more time on SnusOn than usual. I just didn't have time to post in the forums.

So here goes....
Let me say that the original poster was kind enough to run this open letter idea by me. I mentioned to him that this is an open board with free speech, and that if he decides to post it to please choose his words carefully. Which he did gracefully. Thanks

I'm going to try to not comment on this issue or the other issue publicly. However, soley as a mending tool I will submit this link for your consideration. I posted it elsewhere this morning but decided it might be best to post it on this thread to help the healing processes.

Something to think about.......

This smear against Jonathon is starting to piss me off. Sage is right that it's ice's decision to keep him as a mod. At the same time, I hope he does bring legal action against Jonathon so I can donate to Jonathon's legal fund. No mod, and no person, can take down the best snus distributor I have ever seen while i'm on duty.



Hopefully this saga is done with, but don't let some guy successful in his attempts to ruin a good snus distributor, it is bad for the snus industry and bad for people who want a good distributor to deal with.

Jonathon shouldn't have released his emails but i'm damn glad he did because I got a taste of what I always thought was happening here. Now I know for sure.
