You don’t start a Where is Everyone thread with THAT user name and not get suspicious reactions of your intent. I’ve heard this story before - it sucks. These aren’t my first posts, I’m sporadic at best, but that doesn’t mean I have ill intentions, or that I can’t post 🤷♀️ 👍🏼

Then people could look at my very limited post history and they would notice I have tried a few times, and for no reason it’s been met with a less than welcoming reaction. You say you’re suspicious of new posters which is why you act this way, it works the other way too, I act accordingly.

I stick to the Blinds and Reading threads. I don't post as much because this summer has been so incredibly busy and TBH no one cares about my daily trips to the baseball fields. And then it goes so long without me posting anything, I feel weird posting about something sad/traumatic that has happened, like I'm doing it just for attention. Why so much baseball? Business or pleasure? My Christmas gift to DH was a half-season and we're are just about baseballed out for the year, it's been so much.

It was for my kids. 😭 Between baseball and spring soccer, we were at the fields 5 days a week.

Lemme help you out since you're not getting it. I just read through your posts. You haven't contributed anything, all you do is ask random questions and drop a name of past posters in almost every one of your posts. I get it, you're trying to let us know you've been around to see all the changes and drama, creating a timeline for yourself. It goes both ways, you want to participate you have to give something too to get that trust. FFS nobody is asking your personal information. Either contribute or don't, but you can't get mad when people ask about you.

Besides the random 3 posts your only posts are in a thread about philo, to warn us springs is back, and this one. And you and I have had issues in the philo thread so….

The only issue we had was you trying hard to accuse me of being socks, Philo or Kida, you said I came hard for you but omitted that I only replied to your posts, so 🤷♀️

This is like the 3rd time you have said, in this thread, that you are done with the convo. Be done with it. Nobody gets a prize for getting the last word in. ************************************************** I miss the QE2 gifs.

I’ll say what others probably won’t and probably won’t agree with It got not fun here for a while. It was like everyone had to have the same opinion or there was a fight. I missed the times before where we could have conversations and not agree and it not get ugly. I’m sure others will say I’m part of the problem and maybe I am because I got tired of sitting back and saying nothing. It could also just be I guess we are growing I agree with you on this, & I'm glad you put it into words. I also have felt like slowly there was less & less room for variance of opinion of any kind. I remember HE & some other main posters commenting to that regard at one point. It went from probability of getting verbally attacked on a few main issues, to many more issues, making it feel less comfortable for a lot of discussions. I know for myself I have definitely held back from posting at times, due to feeling you need to have your armor on before you do, & not always wanting to deal with that. I'm sad that over time I think the "if you don't agree or think like us, you're a POS" mentality started getting to a lot of the main posters too, & I don't blame them for stepping back after so many escalations & maybe not feeling understood. I just wish the space for what's okay to think or feel hadn't gotten so narrow or pushed so many people out. I'm okay with gentle pressure & holding people accountable, but I think it has definitely gotten more nasty than that many times, & everyone has their point at which they'll step back from that. Yes, this. My absence has been partly due to a job change. But the rest was the fact that seemingly every thread ended the same way—with anyone with a differing opinion being more or less steamrolled by the mentality of “that’s not what I experienced/felt/thought so you’re wrong”. It was tiresome, even if I wasn’t involved. And +1 to sterling, when I had shit going on in my life, I didn’t feel like it was a safe space to share (and it wasn’t, more than once). Anyway, hi.
