Who remembers......

Way back in January, a post by Kev100's wife stating that he'd died that day and she was letting us know?
I posted a question, well not really a question, more a point, that i found the post strange. I pointed out that it was very bizarre for a wife to post something like that on the DAY her husband had died.
To cut a long story short, I was made to feel a cow because people thought I was being heartless in stating that i didn't believe the post was for real. Infact, following this Blog...

I was asked to do an apology- I didn't (lol) but for quite a few days I really did feel bad.
Then- bu88er me! Today...This appears on in the News category....

i know it's sad and pathetic to harp back to a post from way back in January, but I really was made to feel a bitch by several ABers over it.

Hi B00!
So glad you posted this! I saw the thread in News and wondered what the hell? Even went back and checked over the old threads to check it was the same username and that I wasn't seeing things!
I started to write a reply saying along the lines of "Thought you were dead" but stopped myself as I suddenly worried I may be wrong somewhere (missed a post saying it was a mistake etc.) and didn't want to get abuse and feel bad that I had got it wrong. Looking back I should be able to post whatever I want (within reason lol) and not worry that I may get backlash surely?
I certainly think that the ED should look into whether he should stay a member too.
I wonder if the people who were calling for an apology will infact apologise to you B00? If they feel they shouldn't prehaps this will let them know how you were feeling at the time when you were being told to say sorry!
:o)

i seem to remember there was another post, not the original, that got a bit heated.
i do recall thinking it was weird, and especially using a term like ''bought the farm'' - who says that on the day of someones death??
i played it safe on the original - just in case - but yes boo i am glad it has finally been proven.
i cannot find the other post funnily enough, nor do your two links take you to the right page anymore.
