I keep reading on other boards how tame/boring the Oct 12 board is, but now I'm seeing that we have a rep for being nasty. I would really like to know which one it is so that I can play the part correctly.
Remembering my angel baby, Ezekiel, 09/03/2011...you will forever be in my heart.
Lol, me too. Can someone point me to where we are a nasty board? I mean I know I've been trying to do my part to hold up our reputation, but I can't do it alone.
Yea I dont really get it. This board seems to me to be exactly what the boards are intended for... I dont think everyone is overly nice and tells everyone what they want to hear. But also doesnt jump down someones throat for just having difference of opinions...
Yeah - I had no clue that we had a "history" already after only being around for a few months. I don't really get where this supposed "nasty" reputation comes from either?
I mean, I've seen plenty of people in their FFFC or UO say they wish our board had more drama! LOL.
I don't really look at other boards...only this one But everyone has been super nice and honest! I appreciate honesty! I have found every response to my posts very helpful!

I'm really confused as to where our nasty rep came from. This board is so over the top P&R sometimes I can hardly stand it. I would love to know what threads gave people this opinion of Oct. That's a BS comment meant to stir the drama pot.

I started looking at other boards to see where they mentioned us just to see what our "reputation" they speak of is but I can't find us mentioned... Maybe I'm not looking hard enough!!
Lol, me too. Can someone point me to where we are a nasty board? I mean I know I've been trying to do my part to hold up our reputation, but I can't do it alone.
I didn't even know where to start with the thread that got attached by all the 3 tri ladies...some of those responses to our fellow Octomoms made me want to start taking out my earrings and break out the Vaseline. How can they come over here and jump down all our throats when I'm sure they've had similar posts in their own BMBs?

Yeah - that's what I don't get? Where do they get off coming over and essentially "policing" our board.

The thread hijackers stirred up way more drama than anyone here did. most of them said things that were far more rude than what any Oct ladies posted. Not to mention, who freaking cares if that cray cray doesn't take her pnv's. Not sure why they felt the need to defend her. The whole thing seems very odd lol.

Please go to May2012 board and look at "is there a megannmiller here". I guess they all have ChristyML's back...maybe we should be scared! Haha!!!
Oh nooooo....she has minions now! Lol something tells me that no drama will go un-noticed here ever again. We are the mean girls now.
Aw, crap. I haven't been a mean girl since junior high! If I publicly declare that I don't care what vitamins people are/aren't taking, am I exempt from the label? Or is it too late for me?

Too late...damage is done. You're in the club now but for the record, I don't give a sh!t who takes their vitamins or who doesn't. Not my baby.

I think that Octomoms are amazing and this board has not been rude at all, so IMO the other boards should just leave our board alone. As far as the vitamins, I could care less about someone not taking them, its not my kid. I think as far as policing our board thats kinda childish and they should find better things to do with their time. In short we are AWESOME amazing women, and far from rude!

And one of them is saying that one of my posts helped create our "bad reputation." I am going back and forth between pride and incredulity. Have I started sh!t here before??? lol

I think she was talking about someone else because she said "look to one of your own" - I don't think she was saying it was you.

Did I totally read that wrong? I thought it said "look AT one of your own." I was just looking at all my posts and wondering which one was controversial - the one where I complained about my MIL or the one where I said I was conflicted about turning down the NT scan. Granted, we had a nice debate about SAHM vs WM yesterday, but it never got nasty.
We should make it a weekly goal to lure other boards here. I had fun yesterday with the TTGP ladies. Less fun today with May, but still entertaining until my left eye started twitching.

Yeah, if she wants them to adopt her so badly, they can have her. I doubt anyone here would miss that craziness
I, like you, couldn't care less if she or anyone else is taking their vitamins (personal choice - whatever), but its just dumb not to take them it can be viewed as negligent. yet those gals are so quick to console and tell her she'll be a great mom, we're so mean yada-yada...really? While you're at it, eat a tub of sushi topped with fugu, and wash it down with some jagermeister but don't worry - you'll still be a good mom lol

Oh maybe she said "look at one of your own" but I took it as she meant look at one of your Oct Moms - not neccesarily one of your posts.
FWIW - I don't think you've ever started sh!t here before or have in anyway offended anyone.

Why do they lurk here anyway? lmao
Lmao, one of them even said something like "dont let those b!tches get to you". Really? Now we are all lumped into b!tches? My question is why do they think they have any right to comment on what we do on this board. Honestly I was judging them pretty hard for the ones saying that they are drinking all the time ect. That's tacky. Also, that thread is still going! Geez
