Hello ladies!

Pkat

Trying out this board. Hope everyone has a good day!

ToshaGirl

Some advice: you need to lurk and get a vibe for this, or any board.

That way your experience here (or on botb or anywhere else) will probably be more enjoyable.

GL!

I want to give you a little advise. Just like BOTB said to you a few times, you need to lurk so you get the feel of the board. Calling people names and pulling the fertility issues card is NOT welcome in here either. Every board is snarky but are very nice and helpful. What you pulled over on BOTB is not going to fly here either. GL!

I want to make one thing extremely clear: I never ever mentioned the word fertility and would never mock someone for that!!!!! And I didn't "pull" anything on another board. I was flamed there. Moving on...

Regardless of what you say you did or didn't do.....I'd like to reiterate and make one thing very clear....you need to lurk.

This.

If you're truly interested in hanging around here and participating, feel free to introduce yourself.  Not to sound condescending or demanding, but knowing a little about a poster makes pp more interested and willing to invest time/energy in conversation with you. If this is the case, welcome!

If it's not, then know that many of us lurk on other boards and choose not to welcome any more drama than we've already had lately.

We are trying to help you out here so you don't get flamed and you can enjoy the board so don't take it wrong. You were very rude and mean to some of the people there. I understand that they weren't very welcoming either but you need to lurk so you understand how the feeling of the board and the people here, that way you know the best way to approach the post or write your own.

That's fair. I really, honestly, was not trying to offend a soul and was so taken aback by the meanness. I am just like any of you. I don't know answers and the board says you should feel free to ask away - so I did! I only got a bit feisty when some women were rude to me. I would never just randomly go off on someone.

 

Anyway, my name is PKAT, nice to meet you.

That's not really an intro. Read a few of the intro posts on this board over the past day or two, and you'll see how to do it. But you should lurk for a bit first.

The challenge you are having right now ...is that right or wrong (as you see it) you kinda outraged botb and mocked some very nice people. You can't just say "moving along" and jump to another board - people read everywhere.

Seriously...if you are intent on becoming a part of the community, lurk, read, and then jump in. You'll have a much better experience all around, guaranteed!

 

sazzette

Oh and please don't go to other boards complaining about the drama that you have experienced on another because we all lurk/post everywhere. By doing that you are making yourself not liked.

Pkat

I am also a nice person, and felt mocked. **sigh** Life is too short not to be nice!
Lurking now...

Pkat:

Lurking now...

Right answer.

A few days (or more) of lurking....things will be clearer. You'll see in the intro posts people lurk extensively.

Lurk, lurk, lurk and when you think you are done lurking and reading old post, lurk some more.

Read TCOYF and take the FF tutorials. 

Then, do a proper introduction not "I'm trying out this board."  That was pointless.

GL!

Pkat, what they say is true. Please lurk. I am a newbie here, too, and I made the mistake of trying to jump right in. I got flamed, but now that I have taken a step back and have gotten a feel for how things go around here, I totally see why I did. I feel that everyone here is genuine and willing to help, but you just have to take your time to get to know them.

I like you.

This board has been very nice to me and I have posted here or there, dipping my toes into the pool so to speak.

Anyway, welcome and GL.

Me too, I am a newbie, and I highly recommend lurking before speaking (posting). FYI, going board to board complaining, probably isnt going to win you points either.

I couldn't agree more.

I will say this once, Many people on BOTB lurk here as we do there. It was NOT cool of you to harrass Fred the way you did. Nor was it "nice" of you to call them bitter.  That is not welcomed here nor on any board for that matter. That being said, I have no futher interest.

I have to defend myself. I only called her bitter after being flamed when I posted a question. Every time I post something, she posts some sort of fairy dust and tells me to STFU. I asked her, kindly, that if she didn't like me for whatever reason just to ignore me. So, I actually feel a bit "harassed." I only said what I did in response to that. Can we drop it now?

Way too late for that.

I wrote this after I saw her post complaining about BOTB on another board.
