If I see in the title that the post is going to be about LR, I don't read it.  Before I used to read it and it made me cringe and think that the person who is constantly fawning over how wonderful, successful, and fabulous she is reminds me of someone who is not acting in a healthy way, or a possible stalker.  

 

Just my opinion, so I just pass those posts by and don't read. 

 

I personally had zero issues when she was on air, and enjoyed watching the home shows she presented, but she has moved on, so I will too.

Personally, I think the "fun" reason they post them is to get others riled up, aka baiting, while they sit back and laugh, but that's just my opinion and apparently not the opinion of the Mods..


You're probably right.  But I don't mind, because they make me laugh too.  They're just so ridiculous.  Sometimes I'm not in the mood, so I simply ignore.  But other times I find them - and some of the responses - pretty amusing.


@NYC Susan  @qbetzforreal  @KingstonsMom That was the point I was making earlier- it's baiting. Yes, entertaining to sit back and observe- but nontheless baiting! How many times have we seen comments from the mods, deleting posts/threads due to baiting? But they rarely seem to  with 'this' poster. Whatever !!!  But it's always puzzling...

OP's are rarely considered baiting.  Not sure they could even be considered trolling.  Off the wall sure. But they are just statements.

I totally agree that it's baiting (as I said several times) and I also fail to see why the Mods don't consider it that and not allow it.

 

It is really puzzling why they delete other threads/posts for 'baiting', but not these by this poster.

Just pass them by if you are not interested. I cannot stand the Kardashian/Jenners, but I would not say to ban them just because I am not interested in them.  People who are interested should have the right to talk about things that they want to.

Maybe it's just me, but I can't take any of this all that seriously.  Threads come and go, sometimes interesting conversations are shut down for reasons that aren't clear, but none of it is a big deal, IMO.  I read and participate when I feel like doing that, and if some topics and posts fall by the wayside and others don't, I shrug and move on.

  The LR posts don't bother me.

  I don't find them "baiting," I think the OP just likes her - a LOT.

  I don't think the OP of these threads is LR.....she's too classy for that, IMHO.

  Perhaps a member of her "tribe."

  Who knows?

  Who cares?

  I don't.

  As long as the person posting isn't nasty or hateful, they don't bother me...........

I've never thought it could be Lisa.  While you would be amazed at the people who do shill for themselves, I think she'd make flattering posts not off the wall stuff that's embarrassing. 

 

On another note, I've been on a saltwater/reef board for many years and when I see LR I think of 'live rock'.

That poster who constantly writes about her should form a fan club for her or else change his/her tune.  She/he is getting too repetitious bordering on OCD in my opinion.
