When i first came to this site last year it was a great place full of love and support. It saddens me that upon my return here I found bashing and juvenille behavior from some...

If anyone is really interested in actually getting and giving support please let me know....
I wanna help those who need a friend not add fuel to the fire and cause more misery.

If anyone is interested in getting this site back to the way it used to be, (and should be) lets start now by ignoring those who don't want anything but to attack everyone else. We need to ignore those who are abusing this site and pay atttention to those who truly need our help and friendship

Juice- It's been waaaay worse. There were a few nights I felt like I had to scrub my brain clean. But if it was always bad I wouldn't stay

There will always be trouble-makers in a public forum, like there used to be at school. Rise above it, and you can still benefit from DS.

notice how those who need help get less responses than those who are causing trouble and posting offensive crap?
I lost someone close to me today but feel like no one is around to talk to about it cause everybody is too busy yelling!! where is the support!!

I wonder if others are doing what I have been doing? When the boards get torn up like this I do most of my support in hugs and pms...just cuz you don't see it doesn't mean it's not there

It's a reflection of real life. Car-Crash TV is a distraction, plus there will always be those who thrive on gossip and fights.
I'm sorry to hear you lost someone today.

I am still here and I am very sorry that I had a hand in the bashing tonight. DS still has that loving and supportive side to it. Tonight was just a bad night for many here.

BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
