So true Gemini, T.J people should not take it personal, If i took things personal i would be in a nut house by now, but then i do have broad shoulders and really do not care as its only words on a screen nothing else, Lilxx

TJ There has been grief on here in the last few days- almost gang warfare- very nearly two tribes at war if muffy thread wasn't ''who like me then' in an attempt to gather everyone into ranks again, then i dont know what was. When there was kerfuffle on here about 10 weeks ago, when i was booted off , somewhere in the region of 100 folk got upset about it - and yet I only get one mention on that thread ( brave poster to admit they like me) It was nothing to do with reality.When the chips are down , you'll soon see who your friends are.

I neither added to the thread nor featured on it and I'm not in the least surprised that I didn't feature on it. If someone else had posted I may have done. Do I care? No. I think threads such as that are insidious and divisive as others have said. It would take more than not being popular with a particular group to make me leave. If that were so I would have quit a long time ago. I add to threads that interest me, when I have time. Sometimes I don't add because I don't have time. I post threads that are of interest to me and sometimes others add which is nice but I'd still post even if I was ignored. Although, I admit, I post a lot less than I used to. Gwynne

TJ With respect - go back and read the thread again - then count up exactly how many posts actually answer the question - very few you'll see - now look at the rest of it and reconsider whether you really need to be upset at not getting a mention ??? Similar threads have been done before and were indeed successful and fun - but, not everyone got mentioned then and they are still around - well, most of them LOL

McAnne is back! How are you? With the amount of arguing that eventually went on in that thread, it was probably preferable not to have your name mentioned lol. Seriously TJ, it took a while before we are recognised on the threads, I just barged my way into threads that I liked and asked people questions until they took notice lol. I'm normally the quiet type - honest!

TJ I have done the same thing, I have posted on occasions and never had a reply. Sometimes certain subjects don't appeal to most so they don't reply. I put a post in this morning which I thought was interesting to me but obviously not to everyone else. Then on the other side of the coin I put one in last week that had 30 responses. So don't take it to heart. Different people like different things. Keep your chin up Take Care regards Jackie

TJ As you can see, we've all been in the same boat. Perhaps your just feeling extra low today. Sleep on it before you leave the board, it could alter your perception. And have you thought, new people join every day, they may have more in common with you. Caz

T J - I'm with you babe! I'm fed up with being ignored too, but you know what? I dont give a monkey's. How about you and I make a pact to respond to each others threads (if I can remember how to do it that is). We are the 'untouchables' we are! lol A sort of mutual-appreciation society? By the way - what does TJ stand for? is you male or is you female (not that it makes a scrap of difference to me one way or the other) but it's nice to know! Jac the Drac

I have killed loads of threads - it's just that sometimes the boards move so quickly and on occasions people forget to go back to them. (That's my excuse anyway!) Lorrainex
