I come back on here today and see more squaberling between people. It saddens me. I know how hard it is when you get nasty messages or somebody slags you off on the board. It's human nature to want to respond, to get people on your side or to defend yourself.
But, it does not help people who are already feeling down, sad or desperate. This is a support site after all. I myself have no problem with posts about anything, but if I did I just would ignore it and let the others participate. It's not our place to censor the site. That's for Doug to do.
Personal messages and hugs, if abusive should be reported but putting them on the board is creating an atmosphere of trouble. Someone's enemy could easily be someone elses best friend. We all perceive people in a different
light.
I myself have had a public run in and someone was deleted because of it. I've learnt from that. We need tolerance and restraint on the board. We are all in the same boat, let's stay afloat together and not sink under the tide of venom that can sometimes suffacate us on here.
