Please stay!!! Yr one of my favorite people on here. Everyone here has mental health issues, and those folks are just grumpy trolls in denial.

Thank you!!! <3 It would take a lot for me to legitimately want to never come back. But sometimes trolls make me sad.

Trolls are really tiresome......

@crewlucaa_ I feel the same. I sometimes want to just cease with forum activity all together.

Luca
But we both stick around, Markness, because neither of us really have an irl support system, I believe. So we just have to work harder to ignore the trolls.

I think if everyone here hated you, there would be more people telling you to leave. Some of the same people that are mean to you are kind of mean to me and some of my friends too.

Luca
But I have learned to either assert myself, or just go about my day acting like they don't exist. It's not easy, but you can't let them ruin a good thing for you. And I think some people that seem like they're being mean, are trying to be helpful or constructive but it comes off as abrasive.

There was one post that actually made me very angry yesterday. Dealt with very swiftly by the mods. The system works very well.

Dog V4 sends a hug and unexpected cold nose!

Hugs to you and Dog V4 too! I'm glad the mods got rid of the post. I try to report anything that isn't civil. I enjoy the lighthearted threads more.
