    Yep. That crap happens on mine, I will delete the whole thing!

    Except you can't delete a thread. Not even a mod can. Only Beej has that power.

  • Nope. As a matter of fact, someone else felt the EXACT same way, down to the gif.  And she GBCB.

  • Threads like this are just asking for drama.

    This. I was about to say this seems like you want a little drama...

  • Lol, this was just supposed to lighten the mood as a joke! No drama intended.

    I can't understand real life drama so I totally ignore it here. Maybe I'm passionless but life is to short to waste energy on this stuff. I often wonder why do people care so much. Live and let live...
    YES.

    YES. 
    I can't understand drama, and I can't waste my energy....

    Unless that means creating a whole new thread doing exactly that?

    I am confused.

  • LOL OMG, this was just supposed to be a joke! I literally never intended for any drama. I'm sorry if anyone thinks that! I promise it wasn't my intention.

  • @zoeygirl1105, my point was that I wish people weren't mean to each other and all just got along! I truly do apologize for starting anything, I didn't mean to :/

    @mrssitkowski2015 Yet you're loving the dramatic posts which agree with you. Own it, or know that you're a hypocrite. Eta tag because of quote fail.

  • Plus all you people that don't want the drama always start with the name calling first.

    Truth!
  • Who the fuck cares if we are 'nice' to one another or not? Like zoey said, 99.9% of the time, the snark is coming at a specific poster due to straight up idiocy in the past.

    But honestly, as we've said before, this is a community. You can't just come in and open up a thread about how mean everyone is when we don't even know you.  It puts a bad taste in our mouths before you even begin posting.

    For example @mamakate12345 saying we are like hungry male pit bulls....do you really expect that to go over well?

  • I'll just say it one more time, honestly ladies, I really didn't mean to say anything that I thought would cause anything to happen. I was just joking around and I truly do apologize for coming off the wrong way :(

    I hear ya. I 100% avoid drama in my life and intend to dodge it on these boards as well. I'm here because I'm excited about my pregnancy and just wanted to share it with others who are at the same place as me :)

    It was a joke. But based on reactions have seen as a lurker to completely innocent (but i'll admit ignorant questions) I will say that many women on these boards belittle, overreact, and take insult to things that they shouldn't even care about.  I'm not referring to debatable/opinionated issues...I'm talking about the questions that just seem to annoy people.  They turn into an all out fight.  If an ignorant person asks a question that is stupid and no one can answer (ex.am i pregnant?) why not just ignore rather than write argument/put down responses?


    --------mobile quote fail--------

    If you're talking about the TTGP and first tri messes that can happen, the responses are usually helpful education at first, but turn real fast when OP comes back all butthurt and name calling.

    Also, if someone is snarky right off the bat in those posts I don't fault them one bit because they are TRYING to get pregnant and have randos crash their board all the damn time with stupid questions that could be answered by reading the newbie blog stickied to the top.

    These boards are full of intelligent, funny, snarky women that don't like blowing smoke up people's assess or being quiet when something needs saying. That's what's great about this community.

    But people can't just IGNORE things! If they see a thread that's a repeat they HAVE to post on that thread talking about how stupid it is that it even exists when DUH, LRN2SEARCH, thus keeping said obnoxious thread on the top of the forums to annoy even more people into posting...!     ...yes, I realize there's some irony here, in snarking about excessive snark. I don't know why ignoring things is so difficult for some people.

    There's no irony here....only hypocrisy. Irony is humorous.  And the hypocrisy doesn't come from the snark but from the bolded....you don't know why people can't ignore things? Exhibit A.
