I think if you read sites, even if you don't post that much, the posting style of those that do post more is fairly obvious.
I'm not sure why people change their names as their opinions are their own - but I wouldn't say anything anyway.
Not my circus. 🙂
These threads asking about people are a bit odd though.🤔
Hello, DL 😀
It's good to see you, and I hope you've been doing something interesting, or that it's just that I've missed your posts on here.
I have been wondering where you had gone when I was thinking about FN.
I thought that missing posters weren't supposed to be mentioned, actually. I remember a lot of coded talk about thin dogs and hurled handbags that drove me mad when I was fairly new, as it felt really exclusionary. I don't know what to think - on one hand it seems a shame when posters who are part of the community can't be mentioned, but on the other, a thread like this invites comments - what's the point of a thread that doesn't have comments, and an OP can't declare that their post is for positive remarks only. I assume that the high chance of things getting tetchy is why we aren't supposed to mention people (if, indeed, we aren't - it's another of those non-rules that make staying on the right side of the law on here so difficult).
I have no 'grudge' against anyone in any guise, FWIW, and get so fed up with any disagreement being called 'bullying' or similar. Maybe it's spending too much time in schools that make Some People revert to teacherly condescension? Who knows. It's annoying though, particularly when the terms are used to lay down the law and censor others' posts.
On threads not about trans rights trumping women's rights I found/find trisher's posts more reasonable, and as with others, I agree with some and not others - more 'agree' than 'disagree', probably. Like most people, however, I get irritated by posts that twist what I say, but if there is any doubt I try to rephrase what I've said in case my being unclear is the reason for a misunderstanding. If someone is constantly aggressive, though, and deliberately looks for a chance to say 'Gotcha!' in every post it is tiresome, and it would take a saint not to get tetchy.
What I do disagree with is disingenuous comments claiming to 'be kind' that are clearly trying to stir up trouble, and goady posts, which are followed by 'oh, this has turned into a 'bunfight 😳' when people react as they were intended to. trisher didn't do that, which is in her favour.
Anyway, I've been posting a lot less lately, and this sort of thing is why.
Hi, had a lot going on with health, family and the usual dramas of real life.
I didn't, for what it's worth, have any problem with Trisher, although I disagreed with her on one subject.
She gave her view, stood her ground, and didn't try to play the victim, so all good.
No one insulted or abused anyone, which is as it should be.
We can disagree, as adults, without accusations of bullying and "victim face" getting in the way.🙄
Schools might have bullying - forum disagreements aren't bullying.
The "be kind" hashtag nonsense was just that. As has been proved in real life. The "be kind" mob do more abuse than anyone else...🙄
But, I did recognise her posting style in her new name. No worries.🙂
. I can see that having been banned before it is probably a good idea to keep an eye on your behaviours.
