Never saw what went on last night. but if I don't like whats going on in a thread I stay clear. Like Donna says the good overcome the bad. The majority of people on here are wonderful and you soon get an idea who the trouble makers are. |

I tend not to add to 'those ' threads even when a friend might be being attacked ....Why keep it up there ?? any friends that I have made know I will support them .a bit like the good old playtex lol , but I feel there is enough hassle around me with out requesting for more, especially when I don't know what it's about or who's who. So no I stay away and play with the dead, they cause me enough grief but at least they don't answer back!!!!!lol Jac |

I look at the board most days and often post on a thread or 2. I don't join in any of the nastiness although I sometimes read through the threads. From my viewpoint - which may be wrong - people oftern overreact to a comment or thread because it is from someone they don't get on with. The others friends join in and it becomes a real mud slinger. If there is something abusive it should go straight to genes and if not, why not just ignore it? It's such a shame as not only does it make the board an unfriendly place but the people involved - on both or however many sides there are,I find it very confusing! - seem to be lovely people most of the time. I don't avoid anyone or anyones thread - I'll post if I'm interested, not because of whose thread it is. Come on folks, let's treat one another as we would like to be treated. Kate |

Honesty being the best policy.... I've been a member with GR for about two years and I often scroll through the message board to have a 'nosey' I very rarely post any replies because: There are some people who get offended by other peoples opinions. A lot of the messages are aimed at people you already talk too, and the rest of us have no clue as to their meaning. Also I have seen a lot of bad feelings between some GR members and am not inclined to get involved in such issues. Otherwise GR is a great site. Steph |
