@Hootyi think some people feel it is the polite thing to do.I am happy that they say they are taking time out so that I don’t wonder what happened.

I see that more as a good manners thing than attenttion getting or sympathy seeking. Now if she turns around later and does the Loretta Young double door entrance with flourishes I might have a different take . . .
An obligation? Seriously? No offense to the OP but this is a message board. We don't really "know" each other here. I hardly think posters here will be sitting around stressing out if the OP or anyone else quits posting!
@KKJ Some posters make connections here. There are most definitely people here that I care about that when missing I think of. One such poster is Moonchilde, another Noel7. Their absence here does bother me and I think of them often.

@If someone needs sympathy I will be willing to pass it out...doesn’t hurt to be kind to people.

When I began posting, I was advised by many to have a “thick skin”. Wow, did I need that the other day when ripped apart without cause. For a little while, I felt hurt, defeated, whatever, but would never give the snarky ones the satisfaction of leaving. Let them leave if not thrilled w/ my threads, posts or opinions. Leaving here is letting the “bad guys” win.

Don't waste your time replying to people who disagree with you. So what? It would be a mighty boring world if we all thought the same on everything. I have two singers that are favorites of mine, yet friends say How can you listen to him? He's a (insert party name here). Again, so what? I like their music. Take the wheat and leave the chaff.
Annabelle, the first time I ever noticed your name was years ago when you took the time to answer a question I had posted about JJ Peng stained glass lamps. What a nice person, I thought. Since then I've ready many of your posts and wish I had known you in person. Take your break and come back refreshed.

When you feel bad or hurt posting on the boards just buy one of those inspiring message tees from PLW, that will lift you up and heal all things bad......at least that's what they say during the presentations.

@goldensrbestUh...I disagree. There are some who like more attention and some who like less attention, but I think she likes her share.
I find her posts longer than necessary and sometimes wide ranging regarding topic. I think she said she likes to respond to everyone, those who agree and those who disagree. Maybe she just ❤️s those who agree. I don’t know as I’ll admit I don’t read most of her stuff...because it’s often long and wide ranging.
She’d be a great blogger.
