It seems to escape you that this board is probably more sensitive than most. Posters who appear from nowhere without offering help, advice or something contstructive are suspect until they prove otherwise. So far your motives are hidden, as is your agenda.

People here are talking about something that has affected their lives probably more profoundly than anything that has ever happened to them. It is an intensely personal experience and it takes a lot of guts to bring these issues out into the open. We're not talking dog breeding or coffee cup collecting.

There are also issues of privacy and safety. We are all aware it is a public message board but we also protect each other as much as is possible.

Anyone who has something to offer people who are hurting is very welcome here. Not all our posters are victims of infidelity but they are also well known for their wisdom and helpfulness.

So aggression and paranoia are an acceptable welcome in this circle?

I asked about a thread I read earlier.. that's disappeared.. that's all.. I have lots of advice to give.. and share... but I'm not feeling safe yet either, so I guess we're even..

Don't keep biting, T.

I'm not. He'll have gone in a puff of smoke shortly.

I suppose he forgot that he had to agree to something (i.e., the guidelines) before becoming a memeber.

So T is G?.. that's weird...

So why am I being chased out of here? Because I haven't shared yet?

Well, if your "advice" is about as pertinent and caring as the rest of your sage posting on this thread, I can't wait to read what you might have to say. You use terms that make it patently obvious that you are NOT new to the system. If you were new, you display a remarkable amount of laziness for one claiming to have such a fount of advice that you can't read the rules of the system for yourself.

Either way, what you have to say would seem irrelevant to anyone else, so there is no need to "chase you from the system." A Troll by any other name is still a troll. Enjoy your life under the bridge.

I totally agree - this poster is no "newbie" by any stretch of the imagination.

What happen here?

Why are almost everybody angry with that member?

I dont understand everything here, but I understood that he is complain about express everything.

I havent chance to read "prohibited post" . Im a WS so I think I was interesting in it..

Im agree in express ourselves everything but without ofense anyone... Sometimes our thoughts can offend someone even if we dont plan it.

Once I was in chatting an everybody in that room were disapoint with me.. I never ofend anyone and suddenly several started to offended me... It was like me vs all persons in that room. Instead of response with same reaction (ofending) I use the opposite, and then some members realize that my words wasnt with bad intentions since the begining..

Just an opinion here.
