Get kicked of the boards for this, and I guess if you never see me posting again, that is what happened, but I really have to say that I am so sad at what I think is going on on this board.

I'll just say that it's hard to ignore someone when they show up every other day under yet another name.

Well, hmmm, I guess I'm missing something or maybe I'm just not up on all the posts. I feel fine about posting here. I assume that if someone is not interested in a particular thread or post, he/she will ignore it or me and that's fine with me. There have been some posts that are interesting to me and other which are not and I think that's fine as well. Likewise, there are posts that I find to be

I do love this board and have gotten to know some wonderful people here. I am a little stilted as Rose said about what I post sometimes, but I'm getting over it. I guess I figure that if someone that is a stranger doesn't like what I say, who cares. Actually rather then "ignore" someone I just don't choose to respond to them.


I do feel that someone is coming around as many different posters, for what reason, I don't know. It is just too bad that so many of us are feeling this way and someone new might not be getting the responses that they really deserve.


I also feel like those of us who have "pure" intentions are the ones that are getting the reprimand and the person or people who are the problem are getting away with things.

Like a few others here, I don't quite get it. I feel comfortable posting here, even though not everyone agrees with me on certain issues. I am not aware of any wrist-slapping that is going on. Perhaps others connect more during chat discussions which I never do, and that is where these other feelings arise. This board has some good threads(along with the corny ones) and I enjoy reading and posting here, whether or not the regular participants read my posts. I do not suspect anyone of posting under several screennames, and even if someone does do it, who cares? It's the points being made that are important. Whoever makes them doesn't really matter.

Reading/posting here helps me see where others are coming from, and I like that, because it gets me thinking; we all need regular brain exercise, just like physical exercise.

I can't help think part of this original post is directed at me with the timing of my first post here in forever, if that's the case sobeit.
