Okay, I am going to say this one last time.
Everyone needs to take their petty fighting elsewhere. It is ridiculous. Ridiculous. I do not want to see this on the board any more. Stick to the topic of the thread you're in and leave the personal shit at home.
I shouldn't go into a thread about a stupid topic that I don't even want to read about in the first place and see something that looks like it's out of the Young and the Restless or something, with people calling each other bitches and assholes in karma and having big drama sessions for no reason.
No more!
I don't want to have to start deleting posts and threads, but I will. I've done it before and I'll do it again.
If you don't like someone, don't talk to them. Find another thread to post in if you have to. I don't want to see any personal attacks, and I don't want to hear any more about so and so did this or that from people who are doing the very same thing right back and/or to other people.
And one more thing. Not every person on the board is trying to insult you. If someone says something and your first reaction is to lash back at them, stop and reread what they said and see if they actually attacked you. Maybe you misunderstood what they said. If you still think they've said something inappropriate, use the report post feature or bring it to a mod's attention. We'll try to help you get to a peaceable resolution. But all this back and forth, and freak outs over nothing have got to end.
I don't know what's gotten into everyone's kibble lately, but everyone needs to calm down. And before you start to point fingers, take a look at yourself.
The staff cannot see everything, or know everything that might have upset you. What you see as insulting someone else might not. So please, use the report post feature. Talk to the staff. We're here to help but we can only do that if we know there's a problem. We're not perfect - we can't know everything that goes on every minute of the day.
And please. If you contact a member of the staff, please do it calmly and rationally. Don't take your anger over whatever has happened out on them. Because that certainly doesn't help them to help you any better. We can only do our best, and nasty accusations at the staff serve absolutely no purpose. Don't treat us like we aren't listening to you when you haven't even given us the chance to!
Let's see an attitude adjustment from everyone starting immediately.
