I love BP for all that I have learned since my surgery last year. I've been sticking close to a thread about stalling and it is really helping me see one through. However, there appears to be a bunch of air headed hits who are having their own little private conversation about pre-op diets!!!!!!! WTF do they think there are so many options for postings and info? So you don't clutter up threads that are a lifeline to people with your gossipy drivel!!!!!!!! Right, I've probably upset loads of people but I needed to let rip. Shall shut up now............

@@jintycb - that is a good point. But can we talk about relationships and dating?

Which thread?

Unfortunately, it happens.

Have you tried gently reminding them to take their conversation to a new thread?

Otherwise, either try to bring the thread back to the main topic or ignore it.

Glad to hear you are getting the help you need, though.

@@jintycb -- It can be frustrating, but huffing and puffing won't change a thing. It's in the nature of upright walkers to veer off. As you feel about those who go off topic plenty of others feel after the five thousandth time a question is posted as a new topic, stalls included. NNUTS: It's all been asked, hashed and rehashed before. (I don't see that talk of pre-op eating is the same as gossip.) Read what suits you and skip the rest. Here's an opportunity to try it out...

@@OKCPirate, for you:

They say for every boy and girl
There's just one love in this whole world
And I know I've found mine

...

Young love
first love
Filled with deep devotion
Young love
our love
We share with deep emotion

Putting the people who irritate you on Ignore is a great message board tool. I have a few people here on ignore, and I often don't even notice that they've posted when I scroll through threads.

Which thread?

@@ACV, if you add a post like "bump" to a dead thread it will revive It in the New Content section.

Thank you
