Where did all the love go?



Recommended Posts

O.k... I am not a long time member of this board, but I love it here....

My computer had a meltdown and I went without for 3 weeks until I could afford to replace it. I install my new computer and was not prepared for what was waiting for me at my FAVORITE wls SUPPORT site....

All the love is riddled with ALOT of bickering and really ill-spirited posts.

I don't want to say much else, because I don't want to make myself a target now, but it is really sad to see other people needing to spread hateful comments towards others.

I hope that everyone gets past this and we can just all start to get along, share our opinions (agree to disagree) and keep the cussing and nastiness to ourselves.

rest assured, i truly think the worst is falling behind us. things have been pretty calm today. We have actually had several FUN threads today that have kept me in stitches.

funny threads:

vines-help me name my tumor

delarla-kitty litter

delarla-kitty whiskers? i think it was called that...

hmmm, those jump off the top of my head.

I don't feel negativity. I feel support. I'm naieve, I'm not sure what it is you speak of. I feel supported and a great deal of camaraderie here.

I agree, excellent analogy Jack! The love is still there. Hang on. Moments and days of discomfort and flare-ups pass, and we are all back together again. There are lots of different people here with lots of different backgrounds and personalities. It happens. I don't like the hatefulness and cursing and bickering. When it gets out of hand, I don't post. At all. On any of the issues. I just duck and run for cover! Call me a weasel, but chiming in usually doesn't help. Hang in there and prepare for the next go-round!. Until then, enjoy the love!!!!!

I'm glad we are moving forward on this. But just remember, where there literally are hundreds of people sharing opinions...personalities WILL clash and hemroids will flare. Gonna need some medicine for the "itis" and things will be fine again soon enough, hopefully.

Love the 'Board PB' analogy Jack. Hopefully we've yacked up all the crap that was stopping us up and can finally flush the toilet and move on.

Leave it to Jack to find the right words to express our collective constipation! LOL

I love Jack's analagy and sincerely hope he's right. This negativity is hurtin' my mojo. I left another board for this very reason. I came here and felt welcomed into loving and supportive arms. Then.......I'm away for a few days at work and what do I find? HATE and DISCONTENT. WTF?

Why can't we all just get along? Don't we all have the same basic goal at heart?
