Hi all,
I don't post often but the several times that I've had I've appreciated the advice that I've been given. They've all been helpful. I have to say however that I am often disappointed when I read posts and the responses that many people get here. The tone (and yes I understand that the internet has a funny way of making things seem worse) and the responses that some people give are often snide and many times flat out rude. What gives people? Yes, many of the questions that are asked by us newbies are repeats of the same questions that are asked over and over again but newsflash...everyone is new at some point and many probably asked similar if not the same questions at one point too. This is an open forum where people should be free to ask ANY question that they want with regards to trying to conceive. If it's been asked before or the answer is on the newbie link get over it. I get that everyone has bad days every now and again, who doesn't but to treat other people who are "in the same boat" of this monumental change in life is just mean. And no I'm not some sap but good grief a little respect for each other goes a long way. If you don't like the questions then the answer is simple. Don't read them. If you happen to read one and find yourself rolling your eyes then so be it just don't respond! Flame away...if asking for a little decency upsets you then your issues are likely bigger than this post.
Re: On my soapbox
FFS, not another one... If you don't like the tone of the board GTFO!
ETA: spelling, my anger got the best of my typing, I'm so tired of this sh*t
Stand back, everyone! The Queen of TTGP is here and she's got some new rules for us!
If you happen to read a snarky response that you don't like and find yourself rolling your eyes (or crying over it, as it may be) then just don't respond. And for the love of all that's holy, do NOT attempt a call out thread because you will be eaten alive. Oh wait, too late for that now. Just don't DD like your little friend crazyref did.
BTW, you are a supertwat.
I am sure this post is going to change the entire "tone" of the board.
Where is the Unicorn puking rainbows picture!?
It's clear by your repsonses that you can't see past the end of your own noses. It really is sad that we're all here with what is likely the same purpose and a few rotten apples really make things nasty. It sucks because there are clearly others on here who are genuine and helpful.
Are you not loved enough at home? That's my guess.
IVF #1 with ICSI - ER 1/20 (16R, 12M, 10F), ET 1/23 (1-10 cell and 1-8cell transferred), BFP on 1/31 Beta #1 on 2/3 = 68, Beta #2 on 2/6 = 261 EDD 10/12/12
Hmmmm.
A) Step away from the soapbox.
(I'd go for the shiny ones.)
Typical Newb.

Agreed!

Are you not loved enough that you have to come to the internet for justification and ass kissing from internet strangers!
OMG! This.
When did Pinocchio get here? I haven't seen him in AGES.
I will cut a you.
WOW~! I have to say to do have some balls talking that mess. Unfortunately you look like the one who needs acceptance from internet strangers. Sorry. Go find another board.
It's clear by your original post that you are a holier than thou twat.
Thiiiiiiiis. If you are allowed to comment on things you don't like then anyone else can.
LOL
It seems like you're here to boss everyone else around and try to make things happen your way. I don't think that's why any of these other ladies are here.
OMFG LOVE!
OP - There are so many things wrong with your post that it's making my head spin. You claim this should be a forum where people are free to ask whatever they want. Um, it is. It is also a forum where people are free to respond however they want. It's really quit shocking, I know, but I'm sure you'll stop shaking soon.
You really need to get over yourself. You think making some stupid call out post that is only sort of logical will make anything on this board change? If you do then you are really delluded. If you don't like it you can GTFO. It's really that simple.
I'm done with all this P&R bullshizzzzzzz
Egh, he's a perv.

Get over yourself. You're not going to change the board.
And this is just another repeat post that is posted over and over again.
YES FTW!!

Thanks Belle!
I totally agree. I just joined this board and came on her this morning after reading the responses to one of my very first posts/concerns. I was on other community websites for years with my first two and never saw meanness like this. Not just mine but read other posts after and saw the same attitudes. Ridiculous. I will be deleting my profile as soon as I go figure out how.

Classic.
it's easy. Just stop posting instead of gbcbing. This is the cliche bull$hit that made me leave tb. FFS not everyone is going to like you and people have different personalities. Are you one of those people who expects praise for wiping your own ass?
Hahahahah
Such an ugly crier!

There's nothing I hate more than puppies (and rainbows). I hate them so much I don't kick 'em, I make 'em into coats.
