Flaming is not allowed at all! Period

[Franky]

This not pointed at anyone, but here is the bottom line.

If you have a problem with anyone or a certain situation, either pm that person and work it out or pm me,mod. I will see what I can do for you. I WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY POSTS causing or inciting fights. If you don't like it, there are other forums out there. This was a very caring and supportive place until certain elements started to uprise. We are going back to support again and if that means deleting posts and banning people so be it.

well fraky agree. i have been trying to mend fences like playing catch with a grenade at times . support i do on an unnofficial basis. i pm any newbie i see bubba's site so get on right track. the upset i send stuff relevat to them where can do positive action. i try my best to help with certain issues, although we eed to do more study on severe infestation i was lucky ad caught mine early. as you know i was lucky enough to find this board 3 days after full blown. i try to stay positve i admit sometimes sound negative but we all have our ups and downs w/this disease. however i did not join to win a popularity contest, i cam initially for my own self help then decided to share what i found. my suggestions are added tools, and NOT replacements for bubba's treatment steps. i also go for walks and have family time. i have had some say i am obsssed but this is bs. i like to help. i also go out w/friends too. i have a life, however i am only human, an average joe sick like many in here. i hope i have been civil, because this is a great place for help. i once quit like a baby, and realized was dumb. i just ignore the negativity and such now. those who are wise in here should concentrate on improving and not paniking about the situation at least ways to fight it. please realize many in here to talk to if like. i am one of many of these individuals. if i fail, at something i still research ask others and try. however, i am nothing without the other members in here, and would be NOTHING without them.

BTW friski and Hilly, the only hat you ll catch me in is a witches one !!

[Tootsie]

Are ya a good witch or a bad witch ?

All kidding aside it doesnt help the board to say things like that and I dont like myself very much if I say mean things . Im sure it didnt help the situation Plus I hate feeling angry, it ruined my day. I had a headache and stomach cramps all day but I am glad it made you feel better Carla

[Franky]

Its not so much for the people responding to bad posts, as it for the people starting them. Its human nature to defend yourself. But when you have someone continually putting other people down is when we have the real problem.

franky please do real bad curseword filter. i hate limiting speech but would. help as far as friski totally inocent doll if she goes I GO, (LC).

Would you say the word s**t is a "curse" word? how about "freaking"? I mean, I'm all for the cleaning up severe "curse" words, but we are all adults here, are we not? I don't think the average poster here uses obsene expletives on a regular basis. There will be times when the above words are used stemming from anger and frustration at this hideous situation we are in, but I'm more inclined to think it vulgar if someone accosts or insults another poster.

I remember receiving a 'reprimand' from another poster and for the life of me I can't think of what I said that was so wrong. The two words I mention above are commonly used amongst some of the finest, most educated, genteel people around. I realize that there are some religious posters who may cringe, but I'm sorry....some words are just too commonly used among various groups of people to strike people with horror when read on a forum.

I realize as I write this I will get flak and so be it, but I had to speak my mind here.

Horrifically foul words like f**k have been written here and guess what? People know what the intended word is. It's no secret, esoteric word. Granted it makes ME cringe when I read it, but it's still there.

As I said, I think mild "curse" words should be overlooked given the fact that this is a forum composed of people from all walks of life. I say lighten up a bit about this.

I'm not referring to the posts from Al or any other as bad, but it did click a note with me.

This is just my opinion, which is important to only me.
