Why I Have Deleted Posts and Threads

CM, I do agree with that, too. Their forum, their rules.

Whether I like or agree with them or not. I will, however, continue to post my opinion-as others see fit to do- until I am booted off or prohibited from doing. By their directives, not some other posters.

Im so impressed that a thread posted by someone complaining about drama and name calling has gone on for several pages...and its mostly name calling and drama . /sarcasim. I wasnt refering to woms comment (somewhat uncalled for yes Ill admit) when I said the OP had to take the same lumps as the rest of us with an opinion. Altho by virtue of complaining about it she got us all to demonstrate what she was complaining about. Mission acomplished!
By the way, its Fyre not Fry...was that an intentional typo or an honest mistake *grins*

I am typing on my blackberry, predictive text, many words are virtually impossible to type. I wasn't positive of your screen name, and did the best I could.

Fair enough, I was posting from my Nokia so I understand!

No harm, no foul?

Well if someone called me a 'dragon lady' I'd be insulted, not complimented.

Dragon lady is by no means a compliment to anyone, and 'another' was typed in all capital letters meaning yelling in text land and emphasized in a negative way.

For backhanded compliments? Does anyone know what that actually means? There is no 'compliment' involved. It is simply an insult period.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backhanded_compliment
A backhanded compliment or left-handed compliment or asteism is an insult disguised as a compliment. It is generally used to belittle or condescend, or often one uses a backhanded compliment when one wants to insult someone in a subtle way.

http://www.answers.com/topic/left-handed-compliment
backhanded compliment. An insult in the guise of an expression of praise. For example, She said she liked my hair, but it turned out to be a left-handed compliment when she asked how long I'd been dyeing it. This expression uses left-handed in the sense of "questionable or doubtful," a usage dating from about 1600.

Sorry but I do not agree with 'backhanded compliment' being nice in any way, but that's just my opinion, I'm sure others may dissagree.

I am glad others saw Wom's comment as a thinly guised slap in the
face to the OP. (My computer was down or I would have posted earlier)

Karen, I love you but, you have the soul of a poet and probably see the
human race through rose colored glasses. People can sometimes just
be total jerks and it's best to tell them so. Peace.
