Eh?! Are you complaining about people's original responses to the OP or the fact that the thread has now gone off topic?!If I don't respond to your posts, it's probably because you're on my 'Ignore' list.0 -
I did not read the original thread so have no feelings regarding the OP.
I was just playing around with fonts, not meaning to cause any offense at all, TBH I was surprised some people seemed so concerned the font the OP had used in the first place! I apologise for going off topic (although from the first post in this thread the topic IS fonts!).
I do hope the OP gets the help he/she needed and doesn't feel that noone is there to help without judgement, regardless of the situation presented.Ermutigung wirkt immer besser als Verurteilung.
Encouragement always works better than judgement.0 -
Care to elaborate? Yes, the thread has gone off topic, but not to the point of anybody being 'twisted (and) bitter'!
2 disabled people ask advice on travelling and look at the replys "whats stopping you getting a job i work and cant afford a holiday blah blah " absolutly pathetic :rolleyes:0 -

I have to agree with you and I have to say its shocking at the way they have been treated by some members on this board.
The way Disabled people get treated in everyday life is shocking as well but on here as well is even more shocking.0 -
It does not seem to matter that the thread has gone off topic as the OP removed their question as well as deleting it on another site when there had been no replies so they are clearly not interested.
Without further information from them it is hard to make a judgement but it does seem strange.0 -

Exactly, further info was requested, so people could offer proper advice, but the OP decided to go off in a strop instead.
If they'd had nothing but sensible advice, they'd have continued adding bait until someone did bite. That's how it works.
At least nobody has wasted time answering detailed questions on this thread, as it is very frustrating when people have taken the time to help what turn out to be trolls! Just as bad for the site as the odd OTT comment in fact...0 -
