@nariadreaming, did I violate TOU? I checked, but didn't see anything about linking to other sites. I can edit, if so.
In the future I'd stick with a more generic "Babycenter might be more your speed"
So it's cool to kick people off the board that you think are boring? Noted
She absolutely did violate TOU. See legions of people banned for posting links to PB.
I don't find them boring--this thread was incredibly entertaining. They don't like the atmosphere here, so I was trying to helpfully direct them to a place they might find more appealing. I will edit to remove the link, though.

Lurking from TTCAL:
@tcolston10- I would just like to pop in and tell you to fuck off, please. I was a June '15 loss and I find what you posted extremely offensive. You may not have come out and said it, but in not so many words you insinuated that you don't give a flying fuck about us loss moms. How many times did you have to say that you "tried to kill [yourself]"? You are not making any friends fast and seem to be a huge AW. Grow the fuck up!
ETA: I love you with all my heart @sensitivesally. You are my idol </div>
I was not trying to offend you in fact I have stated multiple times I had a major lost myself. What I said is its others boards on the bump that can help. So don't twist up my words. My lost was so bad that I tried to kill myself after so I understand and know loss. If I didn't care I would not say anything. So please read what I have said don't be so quick to jump up and comment.
Just like you posted about your lost we should be able to post about what's going on with us that's all this is about.

We get it, you also had a "loss" (it's loss by the way, with an "s" not a "t"), and tried to kill yourself. Restating that a million times does not give you the right to be immature and insensitive.
As entertaining as this thread was to read, let's someone take the higher ground. I'm sure we can find something else to banter about.
You guys, this is not rocket science. If someone comes to this board and the entire first page is filled with shit like "peeeeeeee!" and "omg I'm farting like lol" no one is going to be able to find answers to actual useful questions. And posts will end up having few or no responses because they get buried in 50 redundant symptom threads. Overall, this decreases the quality and organization of the board, and makes it less appealing and interesting.
Look at other established boards on the site - they all have rules of decorum and daily threads to keep things organized and user-friendly. If that concept is too much for you to grasp without going in to some whiny, defensive shitfit, maybe the bump is not the place for you.
@effthisnoise serously why don't you go and join 'crazy prego hormones' or 'prego and insane ' . Stop commenting on MY post for God's sake
This is a public forum. Just like I can dislike multiple symptom posts, you can dislike comments you receive on a post you made. Doesn't change the fact that you can't control the responses you get just as I can't stop you from clogging up the board.
If you want to make private posts that no one will comment on negatively, buy a journal.

Just putting my vote in for the "no" on the Peeee and similar, symptom-related posts. I wonder if the majority of those annoyed with these type of posts (including myself) have been around longer. I'm due June 1, so was one of the first people here. Trust me, after a while it gets boring and repetitive, and swamps the more important posts. Just one of the many reasons I'm looking forward to the first trimester being over!
Sally not only are you fighting a losing battle you are being obnoxious. If someone wants to post about peeing it's her board as well as yours. I can understand being annoyed at the dozens of "no symptom" posts but now we can't even joke? The board is not clogged. You are not allowed to tell people which posts are read worthy. STFU already.
Nope. Oh, and you can fuck off too.
Lol. I'm sure your zygote appreciates all your angry mojo. Go have a Sanka.

Pro tip- LOL doesn't actually make a statement less douchetastic.

Wow, an AE call out or is everything you write on the boards a "pro tip"? I was "laughing out loud" that someone told me to "fuck off." I wasn't trying to negate anything in my next sentence. I mean it wholeheartedly. If SallyWhatsHerButt wants to waste her energy policing the Internet have at it. I'll just be over here on Pinterest planning my nursery.
@notquiteblushing Bringing someone's unborn child in to an argument is RRRRRRRRREALLY classy. Super, top form, class act . Round of applause for you.
Thank you for saying what I just couldn't without getting banned. This thread has reached a whole new level of disgusting.
WTFever. If only you had just ignored the OP instead of starting a turf war. And BTW in case anyone missed this, Sally thinks that her friends can start posts, just not people who she doesn't think are regulars:
My uo: I'm already tired of seeing the 100039837373 threads about appointments every day. Can we have a daily appt check in so that it doesn't clog the board?
Sounds good to me! I agree that these are tedious, though with some of the appointments/milestones, I think it's okay when regular posters start their own thread.
I agree. Having to pee a lot does not warrant it's own thread. There is a dedicated symptom thread for all of us to go and share our peeing frequency, nausea, bloating, or lack of. @sensitivesally was very respectful when pointing that out to the OP.
@tcolston10 - I am sorry you experienced a loss, I truely am. However, you need to repeated mention how you tried killing yourself as a result makes me feel as though you are minimizing the pain and suffering of women who have gone through the same, while also minimizing how much impact a suicide attempt may have. It almost feels, to me, that you are trying to imply that your loss was much greater than the women who are experiencing it now. (The first part is bolded to reinterate that is my OWN personal opinion)

@notquiteblushing Welcome to the Internet, you must be new here. You already posted this in the mod thread, no one cares.
Stay classy.
Yeah try again. I've been here a long ass time. Enough to know that BMBs get chatty and first tri is full of repetitive posts. If ya'll don't like it you can go fly a kite.

Nothing excuses you commenting on the well-being of my baby.
Also, yes, I absolutely said that about celebrating milestones. Billy even repeated it in this thread. I fail to see your point.
THIS IS FIRST TRIMESTER. Most people only have one appointment so that's a milestone to them. Maybe your bullying tactics worked on newbs but it's not going to work on me. Go sit in the Hippo Crate.

I don't think I've ever actually said anything to anyone in their appointment posts except giving my well wishes and congrats. This theead has never been about that.
I hope you've enjoyed your pot stirring. Was that fun for you?
No actually. I don't like arguments generally but I also can't stand bullies. It's going to be a LONG ride if you (and others) think you can control what people post. This isn't my first BMB. This isn't TTGP. Just let the board develop organically. If people don't reply to a post then the posts with replies get bumped to the top. If people were really looking for information they can start with Dr. Google, then their own doctor, then their family and friends. Coming here and seeing ten posts about vomiting isn't going to cause any health crises. People come here to chat with other people who are pregnant and due at around the same time. I'm sorry I joked about your zygote. Carry on.
you're not really missing everything. nothing is really happening besides the normal first tri stuff. the board will slow down as people leave and start fb groups. this is just the way bmb boards go.
I'm implying that it's pretty hilarious the child in here screeching "bully!!!" is the only one making cruel, classless, and nasty comments to people. Bringing up her baby was disgusting. Seriously disgusting.

How do you really feel? Do you want to say it a fourth time just so it sinks in? Leave the hippos out of it.
All I'm thinking during this is PEE PEEE not even 'I need to pee' just PEE PEE PEE SQWEEEE! HEY GURLS I NEED TO PEE. Lol. I like your enthusiasm.
But Yes. With pregnancy quite often we need to pee. There's Tuesday Symptoms or lack thereof. It's quite an enjoyable discussion. Makes you realise other woman are in the same boat. It's better than making your own. It keeps everything neat. Advice that I was given by the lovely ladies. Don't let your enthusiasm run away with ya!!

@sensitivesally was being nice. The board is getting clogged up with symptom posts when there is a daily symptoms/no symptoms post for that purpose. You are more likely to get support or questions answered if you post in those threads. When the board gets clogged with five nausea or cramping posts, the posts about miscarriages get kicked to page 2 (or 3, etc.). Then the people who really need support don't receive it--because someone thought their really average symptom was worthy of its own thread.

She makes a lot of rude and obnoxious comments. But I guess it's ok when she's the one doing it.
On a side note- Can someone explain the sticky note/ post it to me?
I think it's like her black book. So she knows who to watch out for. Maybe takes a note of the username. I'm not sure just my thoughts! If it is that. That's quite smart!

I find it ridiculous that this poor woman is being ridiculed for posting in the wrong place. I've personally never posted anything before but I read through a lot of these. It's a shame that someone who is excited to share part of her pregnancy, even if it's just her need to visit the bathroom every few minutes, can't do so without being reprimanded. I definitely won't be sharing any part of my journey on here no. Not in the mood for negative remarks when I post in the wrong section, the horror! Unless your comments are rude or offensive you should be allowed to say whatever you feel.
Yes but your reply has taken on a negative tone and in turn had made this entire thread negative. I for one am completely turned off by the way you've responded. There are many ways you could have told the original poster that there was a daily symptom board she could post to. I didn't know there was one, maybe she didn't either.
It has nothing to do with being sensitive. This is supposed to be a place to go for advice and encouragement, basically it should be a positive platform. The tone of this thread went from bad to worse. Completely negative.
Cool story, bro?
But really, it would be helpful to everyone looking for info on this board if you would please start using the daily symptoms and/or randoms threads to post all your thoughts instead of starting all these threads. Thanks in advance!
This was the first response to the thread. From what I see, she was informed, nicely, that there were daily threads.

@littlegrapey a "post it" is literally a post it bumpies will keep on their computer monitor with usernames of the people they don't care to respond to or support on threads.
I know I have a post it right now with at least 3 new names on it:-h
Wow - how did I miss this gem all day?? Forget the post-it, after this post I'm gonna need an excel spreadsheet. I won't name names, but let's just say I'm on the side of grammar.
