We’ve had some doozies.

Remember that person who started his own q&a and got Ken Caillat suspended from the Ledge as a result? Can't recall the member's handle but they ended up getting blasted by a lot of people here.

Then there was poor Wendy Welch. She had a class-A meltdown at one point and got banned.

She was a loon! God rest her soul. She kept making **** up and attacking members who didn't agree with her. Like really attacking them. Michele had to ban her. Drugs are powerful, and I truly felt for her.

I am probably not the one to be commenting on this, seeing that I am responsible for the unanticipated missile strike launched at this thread...

However, in my my mind the 2 most repetitive, derivative, combative posters were from the Say You Will era. Diamond Snake, who was a teenager from Florida, who would state fan fiction as fact, and argue with every poster who did not share 100% allegiance with his writings. Then there was Amber, who amassed something like 8,500 posts in 6 months. Almost all her posts were vapid vanity exercises. She might have been the all time great loon of this place.

God, some of those people were looony(ier) than the band themselves. The shipper era was rough for me. They wanted that soap opera to be real, and if you didn't believe it, you didn't know anything about Fleetwood Mac.

Was it drugs? I tell you, she WORSHIPPED the ground that Bob walked on, and she stood up for him, no matter what. Was she out of control? Well, maybe... but I felt it was a mistake to ban someone from the inner circle of FM.

I just checked, and no one has ever locked her Facebook down, since she passed.
