Time Out

Hi folks,

I'm starting to feel that I'm here more than is good for myself or for anyone else.  I'm naturally tending to repeat myself (I do that a lot) and I'm getting a little obsessed with some threads -  and with that leader board, which seems to be telling me I'm here far too much!

I'm going to take a break for a while.  I wish you all well.  It's a great little community.  No place anywhere else like it.

See you a bit later on.

All the best,

Tom

    I have reported the comments as abuse and all has gone quiet...but worried about Misfit....we all have enough on our plate to be treated in such a way is not excusable at all.

    All though it is not excusable, it is explainable, and there are mitigating circumstances for all concerned and everything that happened.

    Compassion and understanding for all concerned is my suggestion.

    The higher up a leader board someone goes, the more chance they have of being taken down by those who do not appreciate being at the bottom. When qualifications start getting mentioned you can guarantee there is already someone to some extent wounded before everybody else gets going with their qualifications.

    Compassion and understanding for all

    Competition is good as a choice, but not though as a consistent state of affairs . . .

  • it keeps rejecting your comments as both threads have been shut down due to them being reported as abusive.

    Don't want to leave at all...but greatly unsettled yesterday after being perceived as a fraud...this is on the back of a pretty crap weekend...so was not needed and caused a wobble.....

  • I just tried to respond to Misfit on the other thread were she's also being persecuted, but it keeps rejecting it.  Please don't leave us too, either of you, we appear to have a bully in our midst.  Disappointed

  • Hi Spotty - glad to hear you are ok.

    Yes it is a distressing read.....the x is because after yesterdays thread and Tom taking a break I was contemplating moving this old elephant off the scene as well.  Then saw the comments online on the other thread and saw red!

    I have reported the comments as abuse and all has gone quiet...but worried about Misfit....we all have enough on our plate to be treated in such a way is not excusable at all.

  • What is going on??? That other thread of Misfit's is extremely distressing to read, it's turning me into a nervous wreck, lord knows how you are feeling Misfit.  Why have you become an x not elephant????  This is horrid.

  • No worries Misfit....no one needs that kind of crap!

    Upsetting for this Elephant to witness it.....

    -phew-

  • Yes Thanks for your concern. I appreciate it

  • I have just reported the comments made to you to the moderators as "abusive" - hope that is ok.

  • Just rolled up my sleeves for a fight....see you on THAT thread girl!
