To all newbies:


Occasionally we get some nasty people on this board making rude and un-called for comments. Please don't let these nasty people deter you from the great people on this board that have some wonderful and helpful advice, comments, and support to give!


Good luck getting healthy and I hope you all stick around!

Odd posts are the staples of a bulletin board. You'll get used to it. Or not. Your choice.

I'm sorry you feel as if you've wasted your lunch hour on our boards, but since you feel that way then maybe you wont be coming back because I think all of your posts were quite negative. If all of our posts were soley about weight loss this would be a boring board. I think most of our members like it the way it is =) and I am sorry that you don't.

No, I won't be coming back. I think it's hard enough to diet, especially when someone has a substantial amount to lose, without coming across a board like this. I'm sorry you feel my posts are "negative" but there hasn't been anything here to be "positive" about. You and melody and april and some other people just keep saying "bump" and acting like lunatics or something. I will take time to hit the violation button though, and just ask management....as if THEY care...why they let the boards exist like this, and why they haven't thrown you guys off if you can't talk about weight loss on a weight loss board.

Sorry you weren't interested, in spite of apologies and explanations. I hope you find a board where you feel as though you can contribute and not be so frustrated.

Have a lovely day.

If you are concerned that we don't spend enough time talking about weight loss, perhaps you could have started several posts about your own struggles, requested advice, or started a poll thread. Instead, you went out of your way to complain *in nearly every thread* that the other posters were immature and violating the mission of this board. Ironically, this did the very thing you were complaining about: bumping the threads! If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
