Make's no odds to me, I'm old enough and wise enough to take it on the chin. But had I been some kid coming here for advice, who knows?
You do realise your comment has been completely ignored? Anyway, onward and upward, it's not a first world problem. I've had a super evening out with my husband and friends.
Leave em' too it. X

Yes, I can imagine. I have been verbally attacked on this forum a few times, and I am not the only one. In fact, when it happened to me, a few people posted me a message of support, but no one dared to speak up, otherwise they may be the next.
Of course I realise that they ignored my comment, but what do you want them to say? Those few individuals who are either lacking social skills, or always get 'carried away' (or whatever is their excuse for bullying others) will never admit that they are wrong. The others will rather not get involved, otherwise it will be them, next time. I still believe that the forum is a great thing. One can't judge the forum from actions of a few individuals. It's a pity that those individuals seem to take over in the last year or so. It didn't used to be like this.
