    Bullying is when it is repeated from the same person. If it's from Internet strangers, it is not bullying. Bullying is a real problem - don't try to minimize it by calling what you're experiencing here "bullying." It's the Internet. People say things.
    There have been cases of teenagers self-harming because of Internet bullying. I agree that isn't what is happening here but you can't just say that whatever happens on the internet can't be bullying.
    You're right - my apologies. Of course Internet bullying happens.

    My point was that what is happening here on these Internet forums is not bullying.

    ETA: After reading through the responses, I don't feel like I owe you an apology anymore. Other ladies have summed it up quite nicely for me. Internet bullying is a thing when it's from the same person (or group) and it's almost always people you KNOW in real life that could make your life miserable (and do). That's where the problems are. But Internet strangers who don't know you in real life? No, not bullying.
  • Seriously @kj808‌? I think you should re-read my original post. She wasn't the first and she won't be the last. I was trying to help prevent her ultimate explosion. The replies and flow of the convo were very predictable.
    If you're still going to defend her after her last vile rant, then you're no better than she is.

    Again, another convo where the WKs (and in this case the OP) are the ones doing exactly what they're trying to preach against. They are the very ones doing the name-calling. OP's last post as well as those of other WKs (charlieswife77) would qualify more for her apparent definition of "bullying" than anything anyone else has said here.

    Many ppl have said they feel bullied here and every time the same relatively small group of ppl come back and either try to set a definition of bullying or tell them to go away which seems textbook bullying. These conversations always go this way. OP, know you aren't alone and that others agree with you. Also, don't bother back and forthing with those who think the proper response is for you to go elsewhere or change your definition of bullying. There are many more people who post on here who just don't bother with this type of silliness. Just enjoy them and ignore the others.
    This sure sounds like defending to me. Do you want to take it all back now? Cause if you did, I really think that would restore my faith in humanity, and you might stand a chance of redeeming yourself.

    You're all disgusting human beings. Like puke that has been sitting in the sun for hours.This is creative! And I don't say that as a form of bullying, I say this from the inner being inside of me that wants to explodeYou should get that checked out. I'm appalled. This is not supportive, it's a waste of my time. I hope that one day your children don't have to deal with pathetic low life scheming Did not scheme....nope hags like yourselves. And you give NO ADVICE! Stop..... no....the advice is to stop now please Lmfao so what are you really here for?! To be friends, and use sarcasm to excessive amounts but mostly talk about being bloated, looking pregnant at 5 weeks and feeling nauseousI'm going to go now and hope that your journey in life takes a huge fucking turn around because you're all obviously miserable.I am a bit grumpy today but that is from lack of sleep. Sorry.  Stick that in your fucking juice box and suck it.Cranberry juice is best to ward off UTIs...which also make women exceptionally crabby but understandably so. 
    rissaannx there was probably a better way to encourage a positive atmosphere then coming to the board and complaining about the board. We've all been burned till our toilet seats turn blue :)  (I went there) I tend to be a bit of a kumbaya campfire kid myself BUT you also have to use discretion  with what you just throw out there against people. If you stick around just let this post go- I'd ignore it for a while and try not to be so sensitive. If it's not for you- best wishes finding a board with a climate that's more your style.

    Lois is good people.

     

    Annnnnd reading comprehension fail. I was reading back through to my quote of her comment and I was like "how did she change what she said?!" I apparently am one of the posters who can't read the our WK was referring to. I deserve the shame. I take it all back Lois! Trust me if you said what I read you said you deserved the side eye.

    I'm so tired of the arguments back and forth over whether The Bump or May'15 is full of meanies or not.  On some occasions, I think a few comments are rude, other days people are just overly sensitive, usually people are just being sarcastic or snarky for fun....who even cares?!?  We are all adults, free to make choices over what site/forums we decide to use.  Pick the site you like best and go with it - we don't need all these discussions.  Over it!

    ETA: I will say the one thing I do care about, though, is people throwing around the bully word too easily.  But all the other stuff I'm over - end rant

    I seriously heart May15 so much for taking a stand on The B Word absurdity.  

    Much love from June15's resident "bully."
    I just read the J'15 pee thread.  You have my condolences.
    Ugh, I read that mess too. I hope the bat shit crazy gets cleared out quickly.

  • Of course I looked at this thread after going to the grocery store.  DH may have to may an emergency run for cookies.  I now NEED them.  For the health of our unborn child and all. :) 


    OMG- me too. Now I just want Funyuns and chocolate chip cookies. Can we have some kind of warning before people talk about/post pictures of food?

  • **Lurking from whatever boards I usually post to** No OP, me telling you that your questions are easily found on Google or in a pregnancy book is not bullying. Heaven forbid anyone try to suggest READING about a topic that's supposedly so important to you. Nice try running to other boards to complain. Because we totes don't have the ability to visit other boards.
    I almost didn't find this super secret board!
