I am bothered by everyone leaving or taking a break... or getting their feelings hurt.

I am bothered that people are getting upset at "newbies" for trying to help others with the rules. Like "newbies" are dumb just because they haven't had the band for 18 mths or more???

A LOT of the people that are offering advice are offering what they have been told by their Dr....

Just what is bothering me these days...

So sad that people are taking everything so hard. I really try not to.

Just my 2 cents!!!

"

So, do you consider yourself as qualified as a doctor?

Nope, nor did I claim I was.

Then that was an interesting comparison to make.

Wow, this ignore list works great...I see that you "ignored" folks are posting, but I can't read what it says! Wow! This will do me a world of good. Till my curiosity gets the best of me. :welldone2:

Wow, that's nice, I guess it's important to let people know that your ignoring them. It probably doesn't work if you just ignore them, no satisfaction if their not hurt a bit I suppose.

Kathy, you are too funny! Kathy? Kathy! Turn me back on!

:horn:Can you hear me now? *hugs Kathy*

*sings* What the world needs now, is..

a whole lot more of this: :fruitsex: :Banane54: :Banane10::peace: :scared: :whoo: :Banane21: :rockon: :welldone2:

*snicker*

I love this guy. Can we keep him?

Now now.. don't start on Kathy. She was being light hearted you guys.

And by the way, I have you both on my ignore list! Muwahahaha!

(you -know- I'm kidding! Love ya both!)

Tommy, I think you just made the ignore list!

If we keep going, she won't have any posts at all to read.

I'd be afraid that I offended her, but she can't see me anyhow.

woooooo wooooooo I am the invisible man!!

Wooooooooo wooooooooooo!!

I probably will be on the ignore list and took no ill feeling from it :welldone2: Just figured it was a moment of comedy.

All the same, TommyO - excellently said. I'm trully impressed by your detachment and analytical responses. Great job.

If we keep going, she won't have any posts at all to read.

Um, so it was YOU that's trying to hijcack the board?!

P'nut when you quote people, it shows up on YOUR posts! :lalala:

Seriously, I came back here to delete my "I'm ignoring you" comment because I agree with Tommy O, it wasn't nice. And Tommy O loves Peanut Butter and knows the words to the songs from musicals. I respect that, so I think he's right. In my defense, my "ignore" comments were a carry over from another thread...so I was having the same conversation and should have put more thought into it. Sorry. But now, I'll leave my sorry-assed comment posted since it apparently fits into the conversation somehow, based on what P'nut posted. Aye, aye, aye!

Anyhow, I'm really sorry.

Um, so it was YOU that's trying to hijcack the board?!

Guess again.

aaw...can't we all just get along??

My apologies as well, In the last few years I have been involved in a lot of volunteer work, because it's hard to get people to become heads of volunteer groups I have managed to always end up as the Chairman or the President of the organization. In the beggining I would get upset at different people until I decided that I would always assume that their intentions and motives were always good. When you assume that everyone has the best of intentions you respond to them more positively. Kathy I did not follow my rule in responding to your post and I apologize, I know you are a good person.

This is totally profound--I completely agree!!! Thanks TommyO. I love it!!
