I speak my mind and admit, not always in the nicest way. I have tried to improve on that, however, there are those that probably don't like what I have to say period, and report my posts, as I have had an awful lot of them deleted. Whatever. It is what it is. 

 

I have finally gotten to the point that I have realized there are certain posters who are negative and argumentative most of the time, they aren't going to change, so I am now avoiding threads where I see them posting. It's just not worth the aggravation to me.

I promise to remind myself every day that I am strong, courageous, and resilient.

Some schoolers drive home their points by scolding.

Get rid of the stupid button. Let posters stand by what they say.  Everything doesn't even deserve a reaction.


Won't work.  What about spammers and truly inappropriate language for a shopping channel?

Amen!  If folks don't take the bait, the thread withers and dies.

JMO, if the mods are doing the job they are assigned, they will see it.

I do understand what you are saying, but I think A LOT of reporting is done on the dislike of posters.

@deepwaterdotter....you are right, but some just won't let it die. They just keep feeding into the thread.
