    Oh Bubbles, come and have a big hug.:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug:..some people are so insensitive...and downright horrible. :mad:

    I must admit, I have given up on various threads because of the attitude of some posters.

    Best to stay here and on other threads where there is a lovely atmosphere...this is certainly one of the best I have found so far! :)

    Have you thought of reporting the said perpetrator to one of the board monitors (or whatever they are called)? Might be good for the pesky poster to get a telling off from someone in authority, perhaps he/she can be silenced for a while!
    :silenced:!

    I am all for free speech, but not when it means being nasty to someone and bullying them...just not on :mad:.

    So, sit down and have a cuppa:coffee:, and I will join you:coffee:....(well a bottle of water :)), and maybe a piece of cake :bdaycake:, sorry, I can only find the birthday cake! :)

    :grouphug:Hugs again:grouphug:

    Hope you feel better soon. xxxxxx

    Bubbles - try not to let it get to you. There are always a few twonks on every forum who like to imagine that they are superior to everyone else.

    It's sad really that their lives are so empty that they have to resort to picking arguments with pople on a forum.

    don't let them grind you down Bubbles. Some of the other parts of this forum are downright nasty.

    I posted a grabbit for someone to put "well its probably only your store"........ hang on - i listed MY STORE in the main post - i never once said it was everywhere!!

    I also posted asking for help on my DS who was being a pain to be basically told i was an unfit mother and they wished they could report me to social services!!
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:

    Hey bubbles don't let people get to you. I only post on this forum now because it's so friendly. By the way, I forgot to say yesterday that your angel is beautiful.

    I didn't do any stitching last night as 2 of my children appeared for their tea and didn't leave until late. It was nice to have them home (nice when they left too though :rotfl:as I was shattered and not used to staying up late). Will definitely get going tonight though - only 3 days left to end of April:eek:

    I made the mistake of venturing into a different part of MSE yesterday, posting about a dog that was killed at pets at home in the pets board and got my words mised up, instead of writing baked I wrote burnt and someone on there took it up and started talking to me like I am 3. Am now sitting here in tears and cant stop crying. Does it really matter so much that I got the words mixed up, either way the dog is still dead which made me feel bad enough and now I feel terrible for posting to stop it happening to anyone else. Just days ago my mum showed me a article about people feeling like they were picked on on forums and I said never on MSE. I was wrong. Again apparently.



    If I manage harrogate and we are there on the same day we will have to meet up and compare purchases! I will only be able to go if I'm working by then though. Benefits arent enough to live on never mind luxuries!




    As people kept saying to me it might change when its finished. Im having a similar problem, I changed the colours of the flowers on my angels border and did a whole section complete only to decide I didnt like them so going to unpick them.

    _party_:dance: :kisses: congrats harley, have added your new challenge to the list and your party has commenced!

    So glad I had wrote the replies of this post before going to the pet forum or you would have got no sense. Going to sit in a corner and cry now.


    Actually you got the whole story about the dog wrong , all the poster did was point oput that the sun newspaper hadnt got their facts right

    Actually the whole condescending attitute of the poster was the problem. There are nicer, more polite ways of getting a point across that doesn't involve hurting someone's feelings.

    And with that in mind, and trying to be nice: Please leave her alone on a thread where she can feel relaxed knowing no one will have a dig. We don't have arguments or nastiness here and we certainly don't want them dragged over from other threads.

    Hear hear Louise I second that some people are so ignorant and rude and should not be allowed to post where they can uspet and hurt peoples feelings.
