Why I Have Deleted Posts and Threads

[Edwina's Secretary]

We could start a pool on when this thread would be deleted.

I can certainly arrange it for any time you like.

We could get wagers and then commiserate

Okay, so back to what I was saying before school got involved with ruining my time to write posts.

Problems arise on every forum, in fact, if they DIDN'T arise that'd be either really odd or a miracle. We are not going to get along with everyone - hell, I don't get along with anyone. But anyway, people you don't like are hard to ignore, everyone knows that. Unlike the real world, PT has some very nice features that allows you to ignore "said person", such as an ignore list. You can even hide a section of the forum if you want to - and if you have enough self control just filter through threads. The constant fighting and bickering about "who's right and who's wrong" is getting out of hand - especially here in the dog house. The point is, there are SO many ways to ignore people and it's just ridiculious that people don't do that and keep fighting over what..Politics? Hunting? Religion? or whatever else I've seen - you don't have to agree but there are ways of accepting someones opinion and expressing your own without hurting people.

Name-calling is utterly ridiculious - what are we, 12? Come one guys - if you find it hard to get along with someone there are ways to ignore as I mentioned.

I agree with PomTzu - if you respect someone then you will earn it back. There's no reason for bickering to continue.

Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now - but


CAN WE ALL JUST GET ALONG? Please?

PT has always been a way for me anyway to get away from the stresses of High School and Work and DRAMA in real life. I don't come here to find it, and I don't know why people want it - but come one guys, we all need to pitch in and do our part to prevent it. Like I said before you must be the change you want to see in the forum ( that was really corny.)

Beautiful post, Alyssa. I can't agree more.

[caseysmom]

Very mature post as usual Alyssa.

The bickering can stop. And it should.

Edwina's Secretary, you mentioned the memorial thread in your initial post, which is why I did not feel it was out of line for Sparks19 to comment on that aspect of your post.

Be good, everyone. All it takes for the bickering to stop is for people to decide to stop right now. Not expect anyone else to stop, just stop your own self.

We all love our pets, that is one things we agree on, and why this board exists.
