I have only posted a couple of times and have either got the responses I wanted or taken a "bashing", walked away licked my wounds and got over it.

My question is: What about the vunerable posters that literally take your advice etc for gospel. Does it eat at your conscience when you give your sarcastic comments or is this site just to vent anger/frustration/mocking/from the heart/ views at others.

Who decides if a poster is a "troll", I mean do u decide straight away that the post is off the wall and all shout TROLL. She/he could actually be genuine and have a real problem that she does not want to talk to her friends in real life as mad as it seems.

I read so many posts on here and my heart goes out to so many and then I read the sarcastic comments and read the OP's posts back and think "ffs give them a break".

It certainly seems like a elite group and all I can say is give posters a chance

Thanks BoF for linking. What an amazing thread. Interestingly I saw the first one and only read the first couple of paragraphs before I realised who it was and moved on. I do hope that everything works out for her and her family and her DsD as well.
