Saying Good-bye to all

[IndioGirl55 32]

I think alot of you are being mean. If you don't like what someone posts just simply move on to the next one....that is what I do. Why be so mean spirited about it? I am fairly new to LBT.com but, I think you should continue doing whatever makes you feel better Patty! =)

Kind of makes me think of the bullied that turns into bullies!

No one is being mean - Read the Rants & Rave - this is about the only place Patty ever posted on - nothng about her lapband experince - She wants to get pple to know God - well I know him - but I know him differently than she does and this whole rant rave sections isn't for me - there is just too much fighting on it - I come to lbt for lbt related stuff not about politics - religion etc - there is alot of bashing in this thread and Patty did her share of bashing in the name of God...

She's not gone anyway -

She's still cking in to see what pple have to say about her leaving :0) - so I guess God gave her another message..

You know, I think that everyone wishes patty well. I honestly don't think that anyone wishes bad things for her or anybody else posting here.

I do think that some people got their fill of the right wing rethoric and that's why everything became too hot for the mods to handle. And they're right. When debates become personal, even in Rants & Raves, it doesn't solve anything and it can be hurtful. I think at least a couple of us are still reeling from some of the personal comments she made. And I think that's why things got out of hand and personal toward her.

Even so, we should all be above that and we should try to keep things cordial or at least civil between us. We need to discuss the issues, not attack each other personally.

After all, we honestly do not know each other. We don't know if we're good parents. We don't know why some of us had an abortion. We don't know why some of us don't embrace Christianity. We ONLY know what is posted. And since we're essentially posting anonymously, we only know what we read and there are people who intentionally incite loaded emotional debate. If we fall for that tactic and get all mad and hateful, it's on us.

Now back to your regularly scheduled forum.

I think those of us who knew her knew she would. She'll be back and tell us God told her to do so. That way she won't have to take responsibility for going back on her word.

I'd come back and see what people said, too. Part of saying good-bye is paying attention to the good-byes said in return.

Bye, Patty. May good things come to you.

[BJean 16]

You're right Llyra, I didn't say goodbye. Good bye patty, well wishes and here's to you some day reaching a greater spiritual enlightenment. With God, all things are possible.

You're both right. Goodbye patty and I hope you find a more suitable outlet for expressing your beliefs. Best wishes.

HI INDIOGIRL! Hope you're doing well. Your photo is beautiful!! And WOW 136 lbs! Great job!

Nope, looks can be deceiving. They haven't been removed, just closed. Try to post on SOME of the political and religious threads. The ones that were the most lively. The ones that "heated up." The duller ones are still there but no one seems to be interested in them.

Thats just typical of the world we live in today! If I knew enough about computers I would start a forum where we could discuss anything, if you dont like it stay the bleep out! Dont ruin it for everyone. Your right it is very boring. I could care a less if I come on here again.

Well, I think we can still talk about anal sex in the powder room! And people have a problem with some of these sites on rants and raves! At least theres a warning over here!

Just for the record, Im not saying I have a problem with anal sex!

I already miss Patty. Patty, why dont you post on other threads, just dont do the religious threads?

Is it boring because the threads are being stopped or because Patty left?

[loserbob 11]

Were those Patty's prayers that got answered or did Bob start praying in secret!!!!

Thats pretty good! Actually I like Patty. Even though I've said things about her I like her. I do think she's a good person. She just has different views and opinions and who am I to say whether hers are right or wrong. Because I disagree with some things, ok, most things she, ok, everything she says, in her eyes shes right. Thats one of the many things that make this country the best in the world.(I guess any country thats democratic). That leads me to my next question(which has nothing to do with Patty saying goodbye), If a country like ours is democratic, why be republican, its not republicratic?

Because a country run by democrats is not democratic, it is communist!

Well just to let you know, I wont be going anywhere! Ive spoken to god this morning on my way to work and I asked him for a sign(like I never do) to let me know if I should grace you all with my presence and he said, and I quote,"hell ya!!" So your all stuck with me unless Lil mis diva says otherwise. Ah sh&t, I forgot to say a prayer for you. Ill be back!

Just kidding Patty. If you dont come back(actually I think god has more important things to do than tell you whether or not you should come back on LAP-BAND®®. Maybe next time you should pay you internet bill on time!) have a good life, I know your a good person who means well.
