Attacks?

WillCMyInk · May 2014

Did you all know that apparently we are nastily attacking naive posters, have raging hormones and are taking it out on other people because we're on a computer and have no accountability when it comes to not hurting other people's feelings?

Edit: Apparently I'm not playing by the rules...but I want to stay in TBs good graces.

BookitBoo · May 2014

I thought it was super cool when she called us evil.

Good thing she's 'attacking' us on a different board or we might actually be able to hold her accountable for saying such silly things.

peggels24 · May 2014

Good to know - good to know indeed.

motherboy · May 2014

I'm quite happy to stay here with all the other indecent, rude old Bettys and old bags.

This board attacks people? I've only seen one real torchy post and she deserved it. I've seen so much worse on The Bump. That's crazy.

Lanatir · May 2014

I want to know how you people (and the poster who went to the other board) have time to keep up with multiple boards...

I don't.. I just stay here. I keep up with this board when work is slow and while laying in bed getting ready to sleep. I don't travel.

Milagros315 · May 2014

Wait - wasn't the OP the one in the BFing thread spewing the bullshit about it being based on choice and determination?

She's totally the perfect model of kindness and sensitivity.

Yes, I agree. TB is normally much worse than this. Well, it was back in the EDD BMB March 2012. I can only imagine in 3 years it's gotten worse...

Someone in another thread here on J15 said they were a white knight and acted excited about it. That meant I had to go see what she was white knighting.

longcat07 · May 2014

judging by the date, this was fallout from the breastfeeding thread. talk about butthurt. don't be rude or say insensitive shit and you won't get flamed.

edit: oops, am i allowed to say "shit"?

also, edit: this from someone who got flamed exactly once on TTGP and deserved every second of it. realizing when you've been an ass, eating a little crow, and apologizing can go a long way.

CreativeD1 · May 2014

I wasn't excited. I was laughing at the person who called me it...

. Hilarious.

Right? It's so simple. But, you know, there's no accountability when you're behind your computer screen so why would they bother?

EllenMA · May 2014

I will never understand peoples need to board bash. If you have a concern about something man up and address it in that moment.

CreativeD1 · May 2014

How do you know she was speaking of this board?

longcat07 · May 2014

she's talking about her BMB. unless she's due with two babies at different times...

edit: i guess she could be talking about another BMB for an older child, but that's kind of unlikely given past threads here.

Because we are her BMB

YaMrWhite · May 2014

That thread was good for a laugh!

Did you not go in and agree with her about your BMB?

Why are you back here with us bullies? Shouldn't you be talking shiit about us on other boards?

CreativeD1 · May 2014

I did agree with her... I just didn't know she was on this board as well. And yes, some people have been bullied here..... This post is just another shining example. Pick a post from an unrelated board and post it for everyone to pick apart.

. Have at it ladies....

longcat07 · May 2014

this is not bullying.

CreativeD1 · May 2014

Look up the definition of bullying. It is intimidation. The purpose of this post is to take a post from another board and let the masses intimidate her and humiliate her for posting it.

YaMrWhite · May 2014

Intimidation. Haha good one.

longcat07 · May 2014

calling this bullying is doing a major disservice to people who are actually being bullied. calling someone on their bullshit isn't bullying.

edit: words

motherboy · May 2014

An essential component of bullying is that the victim is unable to get away from it. If anyone feels picked on in an Internet message forum, she is free to leave and join any other forum. I really hate when people done know the meanings of the words they use. Or how to use period of ellipses.

CreativeD1 · May 2014

Everyone should feel free to post and feel welcome on their BMB so try again motherboy.

longcat07 · May 2014

since when is it a right to feel welcome wherever you go, no matter what you say?

peggels24 · May 2014

And here I was thinking how well everyone was getting along.

Lanatir · May 2014

Ok, for future reference, the internet is like high school. You're not going to get along with everyone. There WILL be cliques and groups that form. You WILL find people you like and want to read their posts or you should utilize the block button for certain people or just ignore them.

Going to another group with complaints is dumb. It will NOT solve anything. And the internet has eyes and ears. If it's on the internet, it's public. No matter what you think your privacy settings are or how unlikely you feel anyone will find out. That being said, we aren't that different from her if we sit here and complain about her post from the other forum.

I like good drama. But this is like beating a dead horse.

Idk. I guess that's mostly a rant.

The bolded is the best advice of the day.

You know all of those "someone is wrong on the internet" memes? If not, search google image for them. I feel like that's where we're getting right now. Can people agree to disagree, or do we have to netbattle to the bloody end?

WillCMyInk · May 2014

To be clear, my post was not intended as a complaint but more as a heads up.

1) This is a public forum and if you want to trash talk at least have the balls to do it to the people it's about.

2) People deserve to know who they're dealing with on a daily basis.

Agreed... but I can't deny I'd be here all day if I could figure out how to get paid to be on the bump for my day job.

BookitBoo · May 2014

I'm sorry that she said some ignorant and hurtful things and didnt like it when we called her out on it. I'm sorry she couldn't find it in herself to apologize or even say 'my b!'

I just think it's funny how we're bullying her when she's calling us evil and complaining about us on other boards (especially after saying all that ignorant stuff)

I don't really care about her opinion, I just think it would be nice if she could cowboy up and move on (most everyone here has) OR be a champ and complain about us to our face.

NatureLovers · May 2014

I think we should just ignore sanctimonious twats who want to ride in and WK someone who's as much of a jerk as the OP.

Zoebot · May 2014

I must have missed some good popcorn-time! I've tried lurking around to find the original offense. I'm not really a fan of sharing other people's gossip or trash-talking just to make conversation, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy a little drama now and then.

If you are on this site you have bigger things to worry about than what some anonymous person thinks of you.

35 and pregnant. Or pregnant after 35? Whatever that damn board is called.

FLRainbowGirl · May 2014

Wow. Just wow.
I'm the one you're talking about. So I'm being marked - & stalked & followed to other boards?
