I need to let this out so I am doing it here where all of you are supportive.
There has been some drama on my local board and someone is rating all my posts with just one star. It is stupid and petty but it hurts my feelings. I know not everyone likes me and I am sure there are people on this board who don't like me too. But if you don't like someone can't you just ignore them? Are we still in HS or something?
I have a few nesties I don't like but I am NEVER mean to them, I just don't interact with them much. And NO I won't say who they are because they are very nice nesties they just rub me the wrong way.

Ignore them. Someone on another board called me a pathetic excuse for a human being or something like that. I thought it was funny.
If people on a message board are huting your feelings, it might be time to take a break. I mean that it a nice way. :-)
Joey, Ronnie, and Audrey,
my awesome IUI 30 week twins, and my surprise miracle
LOVE my SAIF ladies
My thoughts are that if an internet message board is effecting how you feel in real life it is time to step away from that board, if not take a break from the internet all together. I use the internet as an escape from everyday drama and stress. If it does not provide that for me it is not worth it in the long run.
The nest can be catty and childish at times, as we all know, but still to get your feelings hurt by people you may never meet or associate in real life is just not how it should be.
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

I didn't even know you could rate posts! I'm so out of the loop with board drama...good, i guess.
PS-i never go to my local board...this one has me spoiled
I didn't know you could rate posts either. Goes to show how much attention I pay to these things...
I wouldn't worry too much about it. (but yeah, what a childish and immature thing to do)
TTC #1 since 2007. Dx: Unexplained infertility. 4 IUIs in 2008 = BFN. IVF #1 07/09. DD #1 born April 2010 (40w5d).
TTC #2 since 2011. Dx: Endometriosis and hypothyroidism. 2 FETs in 2012, BFP 6/12 but m/c @ 7 weeks. IVF #2 06/13. DD #2 born March 2014 (40w1d).
Ditto this. Hope you are feeling better!
ditto...I had no clue you could even do that
How do you rate posts?
just disregard them - just like the real world everyone doesn't get along. There are ppl I don't like on the bump and I just avoid them. I'm sure some ppl don't like me and they just avoid me too.
I would take a break from that board as I have thought about taking a break from all the boards because of this too.
It is HIGHLY likely this is another Bump coding f-up. I mean they can't even get the search to work. I think last weeks "post views" fiasco is another example and that got a WHOLE lot of undies twisted too.
Another option is that someone is trying to up their points by rating posts and they don't even read them.
Don't take it personally. Life it too short.
I'm sorry.
I paged you late last night!
Just noticed this post-- I'm working from home today
So sorry someone is being snotty! Everyone has their un-favorite nesties, but there's no reason to bash you like that. So stupid, and I'm sorry you have to deal with that, esp from a place you usually find so supportive.
