because of what is happening over at Admin. I don't want to find a new family. I don't want to find new friends. I like it here. But if I'm restricted and limited, then I don't see how I can stay. It's not fair. I was just beginning to feel at home. It's really not fair.

It's time for me to take a babble Admin break. There have been other times when the discussion became heated or uncomfortable, or like now, moved in a direction I considered threaatening to the community.
Sometimes by staying away from that board we can de-escalate a situation by not contributing to it? Just a thought.
p.s. that's the only board that can make me angry here.

I know how you feel, Sabrina. I never seem to be able to get everything thought through with one or even two posts. It's the type of thinker I am. I need to feel like I can separate my statements out into littler chunks because that's exactly the way my mind thinks things out; in little bits; and I want to communicate those bits, get them out there, before they lose their immediacy for me. And if I have to stop doing that here I'll find another place I can do that. Poor T :(. Ah well; life. PS IF NOBODY WANTS TO READ MY POSTS MY NAME IS CLEARLY THERE ON ALL OF THEM: DON'T OPEN THEM IF I ANNOY YOU. :]
(I don't think you need to take it seriously unless DB actually posts something official on all boards)

By the way if someone's style upsets me I only go there when I feel really positive. If I'm interested in what a poster's brought onto the board, I usually only read him/her to the end of her thread, then choose which answers I think I might be interested in, and leave the rest. I think that's sensical. (Is that a made-up word?)

Hi Susan
Yes, I think I will follow your and partlycloudy's advice. I am not going to expend any more energy feeling negative about this until / IF it becomes official (oh, really really really I hope not).
I really enjoy posting "feel good" things on social and sometimes I do this one after the other and would hate to feel restricted.
Aieesh!! I have read so much debate and argument with much amusement thinking I would NEVER get upset, it's only a forum ........... until that forum became my sense of friendship and support.
But for now, need to unbutton my jeans before I pop out of them!
