Does It Help To Have A Thick Skin On A B ?

[nailit]

I think that sometimes it helps.
If I was a newbie and saw some of the flack that we direct at each other I would run a mile...

Think about it......an aber posts about thoughtful gifts....others contribute and one puts a link to a present she has received.
Nice thread...we could all join in until AuntLydia starts mocking the gift and the giver.....now what normal person does that?....And why?......
Just to hurt is my guess.....and it's a sad, vile person who wants to be that hurtful....x

[tonyav]

Yep, very sad and twisted.

As I see it, AL's comments regarding the bracelet did NOT include any reference to Kvalidir's obviously traumatic, unfortunate, and sorrowful miscarriages, and retrospectively implying that they did is quite wrong and misleading.

To be honest I have always said that her and the other one line wonder wouldn't ever drive me out of here, and I've not bothered contacting the Ed about them, because the Ed has some serious health issues going on at the moment, but imho they are crippling the site with spite and I wouldn't be hanging around if I was a Newbie. It actually would not be so bad if the Mods just let the threads run so members could really sort it out but so often they post their vitriol, it goes back and forth a bit then they say something really heinous and bam, you can't post any longer, which in effect vindicates their behaviour and gives them the last word.
The whole situation with recurring trolls is very damaging and very frustrating.

Of course it did Sanmac, it implied he has plenty of money and it should have been something better. Tbh it wouldn't have mattered to me if he'd written it on a bit of paper, then snidely adding insults about 'bet he gave his wife something better' when he doesn't have a wife was doubly insulting. did you read the whole sorry thing this morning or just the remnants that the mods have left up which was really not representative of what she posted?

I wonder if the next time it reappears it will be with a user name like Fred Killer.

[gness]

Sanmac....I've been made aware of the reasons you'd be protective of AuntLydia.....probably not in your best interests, sweetie....x

[gness]

Off to bed, no doubt will return to many removed answers......but good will conquer...... :-)

Be safe at night - sleep with a cop...

[tonyav]

G'night, gness.

[anneasquith]

Sleep with a cop ? You'll have to go to the pub to find him :-)

[gness]

A cop with a gun! A cop who shoots birds!.....Hmmmmm

Night, Shoota and Tony...sleep well....Gx

[Ellipsis]

It's best, if you want to occupy the moral high ground, not to lay into a suspended member who can't post in response.

[shoota]

Thank heavens I have a thick skin...

[tonyav]

You'll have to go to the pub to find him :-)

Or MacDonald s, anne ;-)

[shoota]

You'd never go hungry, always have meat to eat...
