moregoodtimes 331 Posted February 4, 2013 I saw a post to you that was pretty unkind. Let me say first, that early on, i thought you were just a smidge over the top, BUT have come to love and appreciate your carefree banter. And secondly, we need you on this site. You started standing out when there was real nastiness going on and, i am betting, many left the site. You roared in and lightened up several weeks of blaming, name calling, insulting postings. Things have swung back to a more positive nature and I thank you for that. Yes, i can see that those wound a bit tighter than myself might not see humor in some of yours and fyres comments, but hey.... Sure beats that other crap that was going on. So please... Dont curb your enthusiastic nature. They keep saying this site is for all, but they keep routing out those that they dont see eye to eye with. I think you give very patient responses to those i have to ignore rather than say... Do a search or try google!... And your responses are sensible, genuine and come from a place of good common sense. Hopefully you are not posting because you are just busy rather than feeling down over one comment. And you know what .... You have never, ever said anything even remotely close to what was said to you so please keep it in perspective and get yourself back in there! I would really miss you if you left.

No game 14,437 Posted February 5, 2013 MGT, Thank you! I cried when I read this!! (Yes I'm a big baby) thank you for caring. I must admit that one did hurt a little... I don't know why, lord knows it wasn't the first one! I think I'm at the point of just getting weary some days and I have honestly thought about packing it in or just not participating anymore. I have met some wonderful people here, so that has kept coming back for more! And plus I'm a blabber mouth! The person did PM me and apologized. I'm just still licking my wounds that's all. Once again thank you, you have made my day! Laura P.s I like seeing my name up in lights like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leeann71 539 Posted February 5, 2013 Some people :-P maybe it was TOM for her or something? Or maybe she needs to get some? Or maybe she's hungry? Lol Oh well what ever it was hopefully she can read and see that you are one of the most positive people on this forum. Never start arguments always trying to end them with humor. You always have some very good advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And now glad you did not reply what was said to you in this thread. Again proves your integrity to not start people hating on someone else..no need to keep it going. Yes i think it hit close to home for her so was taken a bit too personally but now it is over. Hope you have a super day. Glad you stuck with us. and glad you got fyre to change that pic!
