Buttercup, as long as you realize there are problems you can work on for yourself in how you respond to others, then that is a great first step. I don't understand the need to PM anyone with harmful things, it doesn't help, so I don't know why anyone woudl do that...the best thing to do is just ignore those, they aren't gonig to help you or the sender.

There are some days when we ALL come out sounding snippy and we all have many reasons. I hope you are able to work out some of the issues you have personally, and are able to enjoy the board more with a more positive attitude. I have been gulity of being snippy before but I always try to apologize when I do it, and as long as you do that with sincerity, I'm sure most people are more than willing to forgive and get over it.
