Why I have left

I came back to MSE 7 or 8 months ago after loosing my wonderful wife and soulmate over 20 months ago to try and get some normality back in my life, all was going well until all hell broke out on one of my posts last week.
Thankfully the post was removed, probably by a board guide well done to who ever it was.
Normally I would have totally ignored what was happening and carried on regardless but I took the bait and bit. This has really done my head in and set me back no end.
So I have taken the decision to move on and not get involved on forums again. I hope you can find someone to take on the Mag Dailies(there are 22) Good luck to you all.
Regards Dave(JDP)

Really sorry that you feel you had to leave, hope things start to feel a bit better soon.
Thank you so much for all your posts over the years, your time has been much appreciated and I've won lots of times from your comps, just this morning I've had a WEM from Cosmopolitan for a spa break.
Best wishes.6 -
Hi Jambo
When I did MDs for a bit you were so helpful. In the end, I gave up because of people being quite ridiculous at times, so totally get where you are at!!
I wish you all the best after a really difficult time and thank you for everything. You will be missed3 -

I'll be really sorry to see you leave, you've been around for most of the 10 years or so I've been comping on here, and I'm pretty sure I've won prizes from your many, many posts too! I'm really sorry to hear about your wife too, sending you my sympathy and best wishes. It's awful that strangers on a forum have set back your recovery, and I hope you find peace and strength away from here. You will be missed xx2
