You're not a whiney bitch. Why shouldn't you complain about the crap you've been going through? Should you just accept that people are going to sh*t on you? Even if you think it is whining, it doesn't matter. If it helps, keep doing it.

Sorry, I know how you feel- which is one of the primary reasons I posted the SPOA thread and feel more comfortable on the restricted sites. Scared has been warned by Dr. Bob, and you have nothing to apologize for. You were jusrt sharing your feelings and asking for support- which is the whole purpose behind this board. I hope you feel better and please take care of yourself- Judy

I noticed that Scared's posts are so dramatically critical and judgemental, and I mean that in the nicest possible way, it can't be real, right?

You have set up an experimental situation in which an associate posts as "the wicked stepmother" from fairy tales, saying those types of archetypal and stereotypically nonsupportive things to see if other participants here would do anything. Perhaps hypothesizing that by your modeling "civility" we posters might be more likely to follow your lead and encourage others to be civil. Right?

I've been on other boards/lists, and thought this one was pretty darn, um--hack, gack, choke---(sorry. hairball). . civil.

Not the case?

This actually was a question on the quiz. You did pass the quiz, didn't you? :-)

Well,
I'll confess. I found Scared's posts so incredibly outrageous, and then you didn't jump in and ban him forever, so I did have a moment of thinking that having Scared post here was an experimental manipulation.

I never believed it in reality, but it's a better explanation than any other I could find as to why someone would spew their viturperation and threats all over people on this particular board. (a board of people having hard times)
