and been kicked off of vcl as well as elfwood. She keeps coming back, feeding
off of attention and pleading innocent all the while. so here, have some
more attention, have the truth this time.

Subject: ERB: Removed from Elfwood
Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2001 01:54:44 +0200 (CEST)
In response to your letter, this is to let you know that you have been suspended
from Elfwood due to numerous rule breaches, as well as severe misconduct and
immature behaviour in Elfwood. These are very much NOT in the spirit of the
Elfwood Community. Our records show that we have issued you numerous warnings
ranging from your bio picture to art theft and each time our records also show
no response to our emails.
More recently, we have noticed your involvement in a situation along with some
other artists. Upon research, we found rude comments (to say the least) left by
you, in the comment boards. We also noticed that your gallery seems to have been
taken over by at least 2 other people, hence this letter is unaddressed. Gallery
sharing is not allowed in Elfwood, nor is the sharing of your Extranet password.
Your password is confidential and is yours. Disregarding this means -immediate
dismissal- from Elfwood. Not only do you compromise your security, but Elfwood's
as well.
This case is still under investigation. Feel free to email back, however no
further discussion will be entertained about your dismissal from Elfwood due to
the oustanding rule breaches. Do not flame the ERB, Thomas Abrahamsson, other
Elfwood administrators or other artists either via email or any other form of
communication as this will be considered as harrassment and can be grounds for
legal proceedings. We hope this answers your query.
Thank you,
Elfwood Review Board

Hello,
Yuko has just shown me a long history of emails that she has saved
regarding correspondence over the theft of art and her identity. I am
Yuko's mother.
I am very disturbed by the thread of accusations in the correspondence.
I do not wish to be involved in this in any way, but as I hear more
complaints from Yuko about this, I'm more inclined to think that I will
need to take some action.
In hopes that this goes no further, let me say that Yuko is my daughter;
she uses the names Kaido and Aido. She has no other names or identities
on the internet.
I sincerely hope that these accusations go no further and that this
message serves the purpose of verifying Yuko's identity.
Genevieve Ota

Andrea... What am I supposed to say to this?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don't know what to say. Though this confusion I am
extremely hurt. I
can't
blame you because I don't know whether you're lying to
me, but
nonetheless.
You say you know Andrea wrote Revival. You have just
laid out before me
bits
of what you call proof.
I say this hurts me. Because contrary to what you say
you know I may
say what
I know. I wrote Revival. I don't know how or why
there's confusion but
I
know, in my mind and soul, that I did... I spent two
years languishing
in
front of this very keyboard, half of the time in my
house, half of the
time
in my old house in VA. During dinner or social events
in my mind or in
a
sketchbook I would spin ideas. If you are honestly,
from your very
heart and
mind, telling the truth, I must say that I don't know
how this could be
possible. And because I respect you enough to give you
a chance at
reconciliation, and take into account that you may be
telling the
truth, you
in turn must respect me and hear me out. As well as
you say you know
that
Andrea wrote it, I know that Andrea told me that she
did not write it,
and
that you were in denial as to the true author.
In the case that you are telling the truth, I don't
mean to offend you.
I am
not trying to raise an argument, but you have to
understand that I am
extremely hurt. Because I tell you the truth... I
swear to all things
sacred... that I wrote Revival. I don't know how this
aroused
misunderstanding, but for me, Revival was my life, my
retreat and my
exile,
it compensated for all I could not be, all that passed
me by, all I
could not
achieve.
I spoke to Andrea about this and she told me (this is
the truth, please
don't
be angry) that she had told you that she had not
written Revival. I am
and
always have taken the name Zoe "Xay" Foster, I met
Aido in a BB chat
nearly
three years ago. We became friends over our shared
interest in Japanese
culture and, of course, dragons. Out of this
inspiration I wrote
Revival,
with no help whatsoever. Contrary to your story I had
no real friends
to urge
me on and stand by my side in times of doubt. I slaved
over writing
this
200-page novel for two long years, and now there is
this controversy. I
don't
know what I did to have this taken away from me, I
don't know why I
seem not
to deserve my words. Whether this is deception or
paradox, I don't
know. I
don't know anything any longer. I am confused, upset,
and though you
speak
against it I would like to request that you talk this
over with Andrea.
She
and I, for a while, were on decent terms, and I don't
understand why
this
confusion is suddenly arising.
I have nothing else to say for the time being. If you
can find some
clarification for me, I would deeply appreciate it.
Again, the best of
intentions. I want to make peace.
--Xay
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She's as sure of herself as you've ever been.
Either she's actually delusioned herself to believe
all of this to the deepest reaches of her heart, or
she's really telling the truth. I replied and told
her that I'd be talking this over with you, and would
get back to her ASAP. So now we've got to talk.

a bit of conversation BewareOfTheDragn!-- (5/24/01 10:15:02 PM)--: I like andrea a lot.......we're
like sisters. I believe pretty much everything she says and I don't know what
to think. She's warning me that you lie.
TausFox!-- (10:15:46 PM)--: I won't bring up the past, but she has done her
fair share of lying as well, i think we both know it
BewareOfTheDragn!-- (10:16:13 PM)--: yeah.......but she's gotten over all
that.
BewareOfTheDragn!-- (10:16:22 PM)--: she swore she wouldn't do that again.
TausFox!-- (10:16:43 PM)--: No, she has't. She still smokes, did you know
that?
BewareOfTheDragn!-- (10:16:53 PM)--: yes I know that
BewareOfTheDragn!-- (10:17:27 PM)--: she swore to me that she would never
copy anyone else again or claim to be anyone else TausFox!-- (10:18:03 PM)--: so she probably does, but i know she lied to
steph.. her BEST friend and said she doesn't
