is it just me or are people kinda rude around here??? Like calling me out for changing my mind on a name spelling or asking me why I'm re-posting the same post because I can't figure out how to find my old post. I feel like I'm being policed! Example: (not verbatim just what I remember)- "I thought you didn't like this name because in your other post over here you said you weren't crazy about the name"
"if you are the same poster from the other day, asking the same question, no, don't name your baby that", etc.
I'm new here expecting my second and don't think I'll stay around bump (or BabyCenter! Same over there!) much longer. I also had some people say negative things about my daughters name on both apps, which in all honesty did upset me a little. I don't get why people are so uptight or why and how they are aware to remember what I posted weeks ago, or why it even matters? Or why someone would say mean things about a kid who is already named? I do know that much that we aren't supposed to criticize names that already exist on a person.
is this just the way these apps are? Rude?

Re: Rude?
and @ashleyandely does this
I agree it is a community... and I have not felt welcome... which is fine, as I can't be that offended by people who I've never met
I will look elsewhere to ask opinions on name/create polls. @bbiutmcph
As for my sigh, this is the kind of post that usually devolves. someone asked you why you reposted the same question, because reposting the same topic is considered rude on this board. a poster repeatedly posting similar topics and changing small details tends to be the markings of a troll, and an overly dramatic thread asking why the board is so rude follows that pattern.
Tl;dr, if you're not trolling , let things go. Reading too much whether something is rude online is only going to cause you grief , if you are a troll, try harder.
