I was not going to post this; but I think I should at least inform you all of my doings.
I have decided to leave this blog and posting to it — for good.
It seems that I have attracted the attention of a troll here, who happens to be a former contributor on this blog. Her name is Kim Margosein.
I voiced my displeasure at this persons actions to the owner of this blog. In return I was called a racist and accused of antisemitism.
…and that my friends is a bridge too far…..
So, as of the posting of this entry, I shall be removing my bookmarks to this site and the bookmark to it’s back-end.
I came here to present my take on events and give my opinion; I did not come here to be harassed, stalked and mocked by some bitch with a dirty tampon personal problem.
I wish you all well. Please, be sure and check out my blog, “Thoughts and Rantings.” For that is where I shall be.

Well, that’s a shame.
Also, I had thought that Kim was a dude. Was I mistaken?
No, you are not. Pictures upon request. Nor am I Jewish.
Also, I think I commented three or four times at most on his postings. I am sure H M has the information at his fingertips
Naw, man – I believe you…
That was my first thought – Isn’t Kim a guy?

Because of this patently untrue statement I have disabled Mr. Adkin’s ability to delete this post and any comments to it while accelerating his request expressed above to leave Alexandria by 30 days.
Here below is our email exchange concerning the problem he has with Kim Margosein. My reply lies above his email to me.

My good Patrick,
Perhaps you misunderstand what Alexandria provides, in which case a review of our Terms and Acceptable Use is in order, terms which you explicitly accepted prior to being granted access to Alexandria.
Kim, a male, is in fact a former Author currently functioning as little more than the sort of opportunistic gadfly you describe, one with an uncanny ability to locate those with a particular susceptibility to allowing him push their buttons.
Oddly enough, the several Jews in residence seem to have no trouble simply ignoring his rabidly anti-Semitic remarks, letting them simply roll off like water off a duck’s back. By that same token, some of my black Authors have stayed in the face of what they regarded as racist posts by you while some have left because of you. My advice to you is to do what all of them have done, that is, what you think is best for you.
As is our custom, your residence in Alexandria is good for 30 days from your last post. Please use that time to reevaluate whether Alexandria is still right for you, and, should you still decide to leave, allow me to thank you now for your past contributions.

Dear Mr. Stuart,
We have a problem; or at least I have a problem with a user/commenter at your blog. I am referring to a one Kim Margosein. It seems that this Mrs. Margosein seems to have a personal problem with me or at least with my writings.
I am going to very blunt with you sir; I have just about enough of this bitch’s nonsense. She is, in my humble opinion, a fucking bloody troll or as they are called, A MOBY. Her sole purpose is not to bring any sort of intelligent discussion to your blog; her purpose is to mock other people and I for one have had about goddamned enough of it!
I was requested by yourself to being my opinion to your blog for a broadening of the discussion, exchange of ideas, and think that your blog was some sort of higher intelligence; I took you up on the offer. However I did not come to that site of yours to be treating like some sort of a fucking three circus act or freak show; and to be talked to in a sarcastic manner or in the manner that this damned troll addresses me and my blog postings. Nor will I be your goddamned whipping boy for the Saul Alinsky left that seems to be to permeate your blog here as of late.
Therefore, I am giving you a goddamned ultimatum. She goes; or I go —- There is not any two ways about it, this goes well beyond what I consider acceptable behavior by users of a blog. Her asinine, condescending, snide, comments are most distressing to me and I want something done about it or I take my Libertarian Conservative minded views back to my blog.
Furthermore, I do not mean just sending a general message to all your users and tell them to behave either, I want this woman GONE GONE GONE!
If I came to your blog and acting like such a damned troll, I would be banished to the netherworld! Therefore, I want something done or I am finished as an author and I will not keep silent about this either. I will let the world know exactly how I feel about being addressed in such a matter as this!
Signed,

Wow, so much opportunity there…
This jumps out:

Libertarian – I do not think that word means what he thinks it does.
Also, is Kim anti-Semitic, or just anti-Zionist / anti-Israel ?
My good John E.
I have taken his past comments about American Jews “hollowing out Wall Street” and such to be distinguishable from anti-Zionism. I of course make no warranty as to his true beliefs at any given moment.
The saddest thing about this whole episode is that, as an Author, good Patrick had the autonomous power to delete any comment to any post of his any time he chose. This is why I recommend that invitees and Authors actually read our Terms and Acceptable Use page.

Mr. Stuart,
why don’t you tell your readers the truth, that you also blocked my ability to view your blog?
You sir are the epitome of lame.
Goodbye idiot.
My good Patrick,
It appears to me no one has blocked you from viewing anything.
H. M. Stuart
Alexandria
Liar. I have access the site via proxy. If I type in the URL. I cannot access the site at all.
Nice try, but you are pathetically bad liar.
As such, I shall take the hint. Goodbye.
How the hell did you read this if you’re blocked from it? Can HM even block a person from viewing this blog in the first place?
And while we’re bitching about H.M., dammit, H.M., but when are you gonna tell these damned elves to stop dancing on my head? You sent them! You know you did! Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!
I’m going to speculate that when H.M. removed Pat’s author rights, it may have had an effect on the bookmark page, perhaps with some auto-login properties, that Pat used for accessing Alexandria.
No, My IP address is blocked from viewing the site.
But, eh, typical behavior of the snobby British elite. Should have left ‘em to the Nazi’s.
In the last four months, you wrote 30 columns. I had a total of 15 replies. Hardly trolling.
H.M. – is it even possible for you to do that?
My good Lance,
The only way to block Alexandria or any site from public view is by rendering the site completely private, so that only logged in members can see or otherwise access it.
H. M. Stuart

Pretty much what I figured.
Pat, how can we miss you if you don’t leave?
Way to keep it classy, dude. You sure went out on a high note. Those women and their dirty tampons…D-I-R-T-Y. Too bad Kim’s a dude though. Still, save that one for when a woman causes you to get all butt-hurt.
I believe Pat is a Christian.

I read a post of his on his site where he stated that he had gone secular and was enjoying it.
I encouraged him to blog about that, but got no response.
“…mocked by some bitch with a dirty tampon personal problem.”
What does that mean exactly? Is that a tampon that was dropped before putting it in? Or is it just a used tampon, which I suppose is dirty, but hardly the fault of the tampon user. They’re made to become dirty so in that sense are fulfilling their destiny. An unused tampon might be considered sort of sad, like an uneaten ice cream cone.
Sara, you’re not examining the entire phrase. It’s a “dirty tampon PERSONAL PROBLEM”.
This leaves us with many options. Perhaps the tampon isn’t really all that dirty, but Kim’s personal problems makes him think that it actually is. Or perhaps Kim has a hard time keeping tampons clean (before they are used). Perhaps he drops them in the dirt. It’s a compulsion, really. He simply can’t help it. He has a personal problem with making his tampons dirty.
Please, at least try and show some sympathy for this dirty tampon personal problem.
Kim goes dumpster diving for tampons? Kim uses tampons for butt plugs? Kim has a fetish for dirty tampons, but his wife doesn’t care to oblige him?
I’m not sure what it means, but it sounds sort of Levitical.
““…mocked by some bitch with a dirty tampon personal problem.”
What does that mean exactly? Is that a tampon that was dropped before putting it in?”
Does the five second rule apply?
Does the five second rule apply?
I think you have to blow on it first…
Krap! I miss everything!
Whoa. I stop checking in for a couple of months and you all turn into comedians!
And Kim, what is that personal problem you have with dirty tampons? Do you need to talk with someone? A sensitive person who can hear your pain? I’m sure anyone on Alex would be happy to help you.
(laying on a couch) It was a dark and stormy night…
And may I add: Pat, you won’t be missed much.
Hi all,,,It seems your friend Patrick has been using the very same troll or MOBY techniques he denounced you all for.
