Yup. I would not only report them, I would also stand up for the person on the receiving end of that statement. This is bullying, and bullying has no place in life IMO, and especially not here.Should I report a person who called someone a retard & a dumb fuck & insulted people who have autism, barely any friends & learning disabilities?

(btw @hotelbeneathground, I can never tell when you are being kinda "snarky." If you are, my pologies for responding to the "snark." ;p
A guy like that shouldn't be here, he sounds like a bully. I hope he eventually gets banned.No, this really happened. He said those things to me in 2 posts. I'm not offended that an uncivilized, inarticulate guy called me names, but I'm kind of disgusted that he said I was a retard & a dumb fuck who has autism, barely any friends & social & learning disabilities. That's really insulting to all the people on here who want to die because they actually suffer from those things

I completely agree with your stance on tough love. "People pleasers" (IMO) can do so much more harm than good. And it is sad. I do try to consider where the person is coming from, and what may cause the behavior - however, that being said, sometimes enough is enough.Yeah, lots of people hate me because I speak my mind. I don't sugarcoat things and tell people what they want to hear all the time. I used to mentor ex-offenders and had to call them out on their bullshit because tiptoeing around their issues wasn't going to solve anything.
Also my mother is a recovering drug addict and I had to use "tough love" to deal with her. I don't enable people because enabling doesn't do anyone any favours, it only makes matters worse. So that's how I became the opposite of a "people pleaser". Also, I have zero tolerance for bullies. I'm their enemy and they are mine - let the wars begin, yeehaw!
But I don't care about having enemies because they mean nothing to me. The only people who matter to me are my loved ones, people that I get on with/online/offline friends.
Sometimes I miss posts if a bunch of people reply at once. I'm also biased to look for regulars I know on here. Sorry that happened to you though.I'll be honest here. When I'm expressing sympathy or wishing someone the best like some other people do, but the recipient is liking everyone's post save for mine, I get butthurt.

I totally agree with @Pookie. I hope that person was banned. If they are still here, please report them. Because if they did it to you, it is likely they will do it to someone else and it might just end up being the final straw for that person who is attacked in this way.
I realize it was not something I did, nonetheless, I am sorry that was said to you, and to everyone else here by default.

For example, my ex is a severe alcoholic (he is the one who broke my ribs and gave me the brain bleed), not only did he physically abuse me - he verbally assaulted me (severe verbal abuse, gaslighting, etc.), not to mention stealing everything we had as a family (why I have nothing left after working so hard for so many years despite my anxiety, cPTSD, etc. that had not been treated at the time).
At one point, before the ribs and brain bleed, my ex was dying and would have had I not gotten him to the hospital (and this happened at least 3 times not including 2 rehabs - one of which he broke out of and then trashed someone's business). At the time, I told my father-in-law (FIL) to stop catering to him, and that he needed tough love to recover - he needed to be held accountable and to realize what he had done and how much he had hurt everyone. He has no sense of accountability or empathy coupled with an incredibly violent temper. Needless to say, he made my life sheer hell.
I digress (sorry - he really ruined my life - he is the other reason I am here). In any case, my FIL could not do it. He not only continued to cater to him after I warned him (btw - the nurses warned him too), but actually went out and bought him more alcohol O.O. In essence, because of his need to be a "people-pleaser" he almost killed his own son.
My ex, who I now have nothing to do with, has a rap sheet longer than my arm, and is facing DUI charges for the second time - jail is more than likely among a host of other punitive measures. The sad thing is that he will still not learn. He feels he can do anything he wants at any time and to anyone - his temper is off the charts (never saw anything like it).
I feel for you that you know this kind of behavior, especially since it is your mother. I am glad she is in recovery.
Take care Pookie :)
Yikes. Wtf?I was a regular here some months ago and got along fine with most people. The few arguments I had were cases of me being an asshole, overreacting or misinterpreting what had been said, I always apologised in the thread, and again in private when I recognised I was at fault. But somehow I picked up someone who took a dislike to me after misinterpreting a self-deprecating joke I made as an insult to their intelligence. That led to a number of death threats away from the site, which I took seriously. I had to abandon that account and leave.
These days I'm far more hesitant to post for fear of history repeating again.
Yikes. Wtf?
Literally? Goddamn!It was very dark, I still have no idea who that person was, or what their motivation was. Another friend from the site, in poor health, got spooked by what had happened to me, fearing it may happen to her too and that it was somehow related to FT26 and their gang, she had a heart attack. She was okay, but it was horrible.
Literally? Goddamn!
Damn. I'm so sorry. Glad she's okay though. I have worried about being doxxed before.Genuinely. We chatted daily on WhatsApp and suddenly she disappeared. I assumed she'd lost her phone, or the weather had wiped out a phone mast nearby or something... But when she surfaced again four or five days later to apologise, she said she'd been in hospital after a heart attack triggered by the stress. She was terrified of being 'doxxed' by the person who was sending me death threats, and having an angry mob turn up at her door. I felt horribly guilty for that.
That's strange, I've seen people make jokes and talk about lighthearted stuff on morbid threads without people hating them. And obviously what I mean about jokes is that they weren't making fun of the OP, but being satirical about the subject matter. I enjoy a bit of satire and dark/twisted humour myself. I think a lot of people who've experienced trauma have a dark sense of humour. Cops and paramedics are known for their dark humour, it's their way of coping.My old account made many enemies in the chat room due to the fact i wanted to talk about things that weren't morbid 24/7. Didn't make me popular with some particular users who also seemed to get special treatment from mods

me too and I worry for the person I did hurtProbably. I made a post that was insensitive and more than likely hurt feelings.
So sorry I missed this. I would be happy to pm a pic, but I am a little cautious about putting it in main in case, by some remote chance, someone I know regognizes her. She is a beauty : ) (And a big baby - ha!)Some doggy pics would be nice.
