Has anyone on GN got the right to give private information about you?

Thank you Delila

Ok I’ll fess up. I am the Grand Duchess of Elbonia and I’m married to George Clooney’s better looking twin brother.

Please don’t tell anyone.

Is that the one I divorced because he dropped his dirty socks on the floor?

No, he’s much younger than that one.

This OP was started with the aim of causing problems. Having followed it, it’s difficult not to conclude the OP hoped to manipulate and goad so that a ban or suspension may result. The comments from gaga alleging bullying tend to support that conclusion,

Why VioletSky enjoys being the victim of her ‘fan club’ remains a mystery to me.

A word if thanks to Doodledog for trying to keep this thread grounded in reality.

Nail on the head, Iam64

Well, I think I know what this is all about - but who cares anyway.

Not sure there are famous spouses involved. That was a red herring.

Ah that was the bit I was interested in.

That is a good summing up, Iam64

Iam64, totally agree.

Iam64 👏👏👏 well summarised.

I feel totally out in the cold on this one.
It’s a bit like Harry & Meghan’s Netflix to me. Much ado about very little, but has attracted excessive attention and comment.

It's always the same names making personal comments

You just get used to it after awhile

I just tend to think, if x doesn't like me I must be doing something right

Isn't that a personal comment, VS? Poor x must be devastated. The whole basis for the unpleasantness on this thread is that making digs without naming people directly is no different from being upfront when it comes to bullying. It's far worse, actually, as passive aggression can always be denied, and the pointed digs can be (and often are) assumed to be about the wrong person, causing hurt to someone other than (or as well as) the person they were intended to hurt. It's not kind.

A quick skim of the thread doesn't show up any personal comments against you though - just a couple of mentions of things you have said. That is engagement, not personal comments. Anyone who posts on a thread can expect their posts to be replied to.

Saying that you are going to ignore someone, now - that is getting personal. There are a lot of double standards on this thread.

Sorry you're going through this unpleasantness, x. We're all here for you if you need a shoulder .

I too am Spartacus on the X front I expect.

Passive aggressive behaviour causes significant distress to those of the receiving end, particularly within family and friendship groups. All to often it’s denied, the perpetrator claiming to have been misunderstood. On they to, claiming to be the victims

Lol

It's always the same

If something is said that's a bit too obviously nasty we suddenly get an influx of silly comments to distract from it.

Then a round of "that never happened"

Then we get " if people don't name and shame it's passive aggressive" even though naming and shaming will be mass reported

But if anyone else reports they are beneath contempt

Then if anything does get reported there is mass paranoia and inevitably blame where it doesn't belong

It's just so predictable

It ruins the forum

Anyway I'm offski before someone manages to get me banned again for sticking up for myself

No-one's going to bother to do that.

Although you seem to be trying to make it about you it's not about you.

Best to really. You never know what the in-crowd have planned

Rearrange these words to form a complete sentence Room, fight, a, can, empty, start. If you wait behind the door long enough, someone will pass by who you can jump out at and accuse of following you in and attacking you.

Really, this is getting ridiculous.

Let she who is without sin cast the first stone.

Were you banned for sticking up for yourself, because of your MH, because of bullying, or what, VS? The story keeps shifting.

Again, there is no-one attacking you. You are the one saying you were going to ignore me, and that you are happy when you annoy x, as you are doing something right when that happens. It sounds a bit rubbish for x, but you said it, not them.

What is happening is that people are commenting on your posts - nothing new is being introduced, everything is based on what you have said on this thread alone. You decided to join in with the policing of the thread, and people have reacted to that, is all. There have been no personal remarks, and no 'bullying' or pile-ons. If you can point to any examples of any of those things, please do - the accusations are at best unfounded and at worst malicious.

There’s only so many times you can pull the victim card. This is it.

Ditto. Not much in the way of peace and goodwill to all men around here.
