Well I guess I learned a lesson. Don't stand up for yourself. You'll then be known as the cyber bully. I guess I get what I deserve.
Truly some of you women should be ashamed of yourselves. On women has a 10 month old whose sick and she's spending her time making rude comments to me. Go be a mom. You pathetic excuse for a mother. Darn it there I go cyber bullying again. Let us pray. We all need Jesus!
All due respect, I'm a bit concerned about this where one starts, every other ads on the fire. There is a fine line which is being crossed and it needs to be brought into someone's attention. I have a friend who lost her baby after being brought into so much stress by a cyber-bully. Not saying every one means bad, but conscious words (thought through) would make a huge difference. You can say many things to someone without being offensive, rude or hurtful. Unless that is what you do to make yourself feel more powerful (in general terms...not you directly). Do you understand what I mean here...I said some stuff to someone the other day, and I apologized for that because I realized it was not right. And I stand behind it. It's just NOT RIGHT.
I am seriously sorry for your friend's loss.
But you have got to stop with this shit. No one is bullying you. If you don't like the ladies here, you can find another community that you will enjoy more. No one needs undue stress in their pregnancy.
Thank you for the sympathy.
I came here for a support because this is a pregnancy forum for pregnant women, correct? I'm not looking to chat with truck drivers, but with sensible, also pregnant women whom I can relate to. This is a support group, correct? Pregnancy is very tender and sensitive time of woman's life and why not finding advice and support on the net. I believe that is what this site was created for... Or am I completely wrong? I'm in the right spot...I hope. It's about maturity...we are not in kindergarten anymore. Being respectful and mindful is all I'm asking for. It's really not that hard.

This site was created to make money off of ad revenue, so you are completely wrong.
@aliam20 no I'm not going to block you. Clearly you don't know how this started. That's okay but you make a valid point. Give respect to get it.
I know you can't see this...
But, what's "respectful" about telling people to jump off a cliff? Or telling someone they're a horrible excuse for a mother? Or telling someone you're going for their jugular? Or telling someone not to "come unless called for?"
Just curious what your definition of respect is. Have I been doing it wrong my whole life?

I don't know what she said to you and I'm sorry. I just know that maybe someone should stop.
It's about integrity and leaving each other at peace. .There is always going to be someone who will stick out or say something to offend someone. By creating "my group & your group" how can you get objective advice on anything. It will all be one-sided. Anyway, I'm sorry if you were hurt. xo
1. Someone would have instructions on how I can block users completely instead of just ignoring post. Then the Bump would be informative and not rude again. That way we all win.
2. I would get all the trolls on one post to ignore them. Seems to be working out great!
Still searching for block instructions if they exist. Anyone?

If you're posting specifically to stir up other posters, you're the troll. Read the TOU.

@denisajacob please don't believe I was rude to that women. She made rude remarks to me and started name calling. I simply returned the favor. I know it's wrong but I wasn't the one who started it.

Well, if you created a post just to round people up and block them, then someone could have posted instructions. Buuuut, you wouldn't be able to see it. Quite the conundrum you have.
@denisajacob please don't believe I was rude to that women. She made rude remarks to me and started name calling. I simply returned the favor. I know it's wrong but I wasn't the one who started it.
Can someone (seriously) let me know where I called her names? Because I missed that..
I just discovered the ignore feature. Is there a way to block users completely?
When using the ignore feature their comments are still there for a minute or two until the system updates and goes away.
What else can I do?
Sweetie, there are plenty of cyberbyllies on this board. I have taken few snapshots of certain comments certain people write to others...filing a complaint. It's not ok to continue on attack of others and this company should be aware of it. Leaving is not the answer...finding like-minded people is. Much love xoxo
I agree, you are like-minded. Not a compliment.
And you are a bully!!! Leave people alone and start worrying about yourself. This site board will most likely get shut down anyway.
No it won't. There haven't been many violations of TOU. And no one has to stay here at take the 'cyber bullying' of honest answers, science and facts. If you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen.
I am not talking about honest answers, science and facts. Fact is that any type of following one on the board and intentionally harass them with inappropriate, rude an insensitive comments, is called CYBER-BULLYING...Of course, it's ok to mess with someone and leave them alone. But what is enough is enough and to pursue this harassment on goingly, with the evil intent to harm them?!?
As we all know many people commit suicide because of it...Teenagers do it and it seems that pregnant women have become perfect victim as well. Sensitivities, hormones all that adds up. How about miscarriage...what if one's experience with some of these "friendly" responses leads to such stress that the woman suffers one? Is that not a crime?
I'm lurking, but the bolded made me raise my eyebrows and shake my head because the reasoning and rationale is so flawed and misguided. You do realize that you would have to show empirical evidence that x amount of stress causes miscarriage, and then that person y suffered x amount of stress as a result of ONLY "cyber bullying" on the bump, and then that that x stress caused her miscarriage.
If someone finds themselves experiencing stress from an electronic forum they should probably have the good sense to leave the forum instead of being a glutton for punishment and remaining, thinking they are going to change hundreds of strangers with empty threats.

Hun, I had the same issue here few days ago. I started being attacked in a post where lady was asking an advice about nutrition. I'm a yoga teacher and nutrition is part of the deal. I posted what has helped me and it seems it has offended others (I mentioned smoothie and oatmeal...Ooops) and started being attacked by one of them...so I fired back! Once. But the hell broke loose and wasn't left alone even after I left the thread completely. I apologized and wished them all well...but that did not not make it stop. CYBER-BULLYING.

So, do you think your post history doesn't exist, or what? Because you're not nearly as lily white as you're claiming and a casual look at the thread you are referencing would make that quite clear.
Bring it on. I am not denying what I said (I just won't say it again). I remember you though, you were the one pitching in and kicking me out. .......(listening)
You're right...I had the posts mixed up. Sorry . On other note, I'm not forcing anyone to eat healthy. It's a common sense, when you're pregnant and not a moron to be mindful of what you put in...But that's me.

Before you apologized, you dropped some bullshit about someone having a low IQ and linked an article about pesticides and autism, if I remember correctly. Not quite the same as everyone getting offended by smoothie and oatmeal.

Good post hater! Where you from ? The south? Eat chicken and waffles.. Grow! What do I care ... Bunch of hateful big bitches here... Peace
All has escalated...why don't you post what you wrote to me...ABOUT me.
The difference is I apologized for the remarks. You guys never did. You find it ok to get someone so worked up by insults, that when they finally break, it gives you justified cause to attack them further. (Nice technique.) Don't put your shit on me, darling. Anyone would react that way, if not worse.
Since I've already announced my lurking, I want to add I'm SO happy to see multiple ladies I recognize from TTGP here (I was there briefly with my old name VGolfNYC) - CONGRATS LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

@denisajacob here is the deal. There are a lot of women here who throw stones and hide their hand. They start drama and how dare we get offended and comment accordingly. Seems as if what's good for the goose is not good for the gander. Just go to their page and click ignore. Been working pretty good for me.
