PLEASE MODS LET THIS STAY UP FOR AT LEAST A LITTLE BIT SO IF ANYONE CARES WHERE I WENT TEHY KNOW, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE LEAVE THIS UP SO IF ANYONE WONDERS ABOUT ME, I DOUBT IT, THEY KNOW, MODS HAVE A HEART PLEASE.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


A couple of weeks ago I got the verbal beatdown of my life on here from a couple of folks. They called me a "bald face liar" and much worse. I did NOT deserve to be treated that way and nobody does.

I have mentioned before about my life experience on here and I sincerely apologize if folks took it the wrong way, as if I was better than others, HELL NO! All I have ever wanted to do on here was to help folks and maybe bring a smile and a ray of sunshine into someone's life, that all, never that I am better than anyone.

I put it up here and one of the MODS took down my message last time and I asked the head honcho about it and they concluded that there was nothing wrong. One of the MODS did say that there are juveniles on here and in my take, is that I am/was supposed to suck it up and take it, NO WAY IN HELL EVER!

I was so damn hurt that I thought about ending everything last week as my heart and soul was torn out on here and MODS and other seemed to not care at all.

I HATE discrimination, and to have, as a MOD said, "juveniles" slap me around with age discrimination and so what, big deal, take it, NOPE!

This place was my sanctuary and I so enjoyed so many folks on here and the folks who gave me a verbal beatdown should have been kicked off, as there is NO PLACE on here for discrimination of any type or form ever.

If the powers that be want to kick me off so, be it and PLEASE LEAVE THIS UP FOR AT LEAST A BIT SO IF ANYONE WONDERS WHERE I WENT, THEY KNOW.

I am NOT asking for the world, just leave this up and alone for at least like a day or so, then do with it as one wishes.

I will NOT come on here no more, and it breaks my heart and soul into a million pieces, but the mental trauma was/is too much for me to handle, as I thought I was liked and I love everyone on here, except a couple of juveniles, MODS words NOT mine.

I am not going to cancel the account here, unless folks who have that power dump me off of here and so be it.

I would check on here once a year or so, but I am NOT going to stay up till 3am or worse and get up in a few hours for work, helping folks to get shit on here, NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

YEP, life experience tells me "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me".

Goodbye folks,

Walter

Walter, I wasn't aware of whatever happened previously, but it's clearly upset you.

You feel at home on the forum - many people feel at home with you being here.

I'm not telling you what to do, I'm asking if you'd reconsider your decision above. Have a month or so away, see how you feel, then make a decision about if you want to come back. It's like you're cutting off your own nose; for what gain to you?

people often project their own dislike for normative values onto others here. surely those who disagree can just take the statement 'respect your elders' with a grain of salt instead of itching to express their particular criticisms to someone who doesn't really want to hear.

anyway, it's an open forum so people will generally say whatever they want.

take care

Walter, I think by leaving you're just letting the bullies win. Good is supposed to triumph over evil. I think you should reconsider. Take a short break, take a few deep breaths, hit the ignore button on a few folks, and stick around. That's my take fwiw. I've had interactions with you from time to time, and I can tell you're a decent and kind person. It would be a loss for the community to lose you. Whatever you decide to do, though, I only wish you the best.

The dude didn't get bullied. While @assisted was a bit harsh and kind of rude to them they're reaction to the whole situation has been blown way of proportion. The situation happened a few weeks ago and they are still getting worked up over it. I don't think any of my posts were even that mean (though I'm not always the best at understanding how I may come off to others, so maybe to others they do seem mean, idk). I was mostly just lost on his reasoning surrounding the whole "respect your elders" statement and didn't agree with it. Even you have said ruder shit to me (remember when you lashed out at me and claimed that I had an "inferiority complex and daddy issues", lol) and outside of venting in a post under the "what are you feeling" thread I kind of ended up moving on from it. They made an entire thread over this one argument asking if they should leave the site because of it. They even had a poll.

Me saying that I don't like that phrase and stating that I don't understand his reasoning behind why it should be followed isn't really discrimination. I also don't know why they are saying "they called me a boldface liar" when I didn't call him any names. To be honest, I didn't really care too much about those guys argument, I mostly just didn't like the whole "respect your elders" bit he pulled. I did like one of @assisted 's post because they addressed part of one of his posts a bit better than I did, though I kind of wish they weren't so rude about it. I think they were just frustrated in that moment.

Still, maybe it's just because I can only say this from my own perspective, but this entire situation is being blown way out of proportion. @whywere you really need to calm down and just move on. This situation is not worth getting hung up over for several weeks. All letting it get to you this much is doing is just making you miserable.

WhatFREAKINeva! Don't remember what I said to you (I write many posts), but I'm sure it was warranted at the time. Can't help how you take things - not in my control. I've conversed with Walter many times, I know his character, and if he says he was maligned somehow, I'll take his word for it. Just because you're on this thread, responding to a post by me, directed to Walter, defending yourself, nonetheless, says to me that you have a guilty conscience about something that happened.

It really wasn't warranted, dude. Statements likes that are never warranted, lol. I actually have already responded to Walter on his other thread before it got deleted or whatever. He didn't seem to care. Elders also don't necessarily know more than you. Also, life experiences can differ greatly from person to person and that phrase has a history of being used to shutdown younger people. Respect is earned and should be treated as something mutual rather than something one is entitled to based on things like age or status.

Also, just because you have conversed with someone before doesn't mean that you just blindly believe them. That's how, in more severe cases, you end up with victims of things like abuse and SA having no one to turn to.

I'm so sorry you have gone through this experience. I don't know the details but you've always come across as such a caring person to me, who has gone through a whole ton of shit. I hope you can find peace- whether that means taking a break from the forum or, whether you are able to ignore the people who have triggered you. Selfishly, I hope you do decide to stay. I always enjoy reading your posts.

If you ever get to read this, I have a few remarks.
First, if someone is genuinely bullying you, then either report them, or just kick their ass yourself. Bullies don't like it when you fight back.
Second, it has been my experience that sometimes you need a thick skin here. Occasionally when you try to help someone you get a very negative, or even hostile response in return. It means that the other person doesn't see the world the same way as you do, and you may have touched a nerve. When that happens to me, I try to understand the other person's perspective, and if it seems reasonable I try to learn from the experience. (If it doesn't seem reasonable, I just ignore their response and try to avoid that person in future.) Leaving the site because of something like that seems an over-reaction to me.

Thank you Walter for being considerate as always and leaving an explanation to ease our wondering. I never believed you deserved such kind of uncalled for hostile verbiage. I'm sorry for how it's made you feel. There are a lot of us that find comfort in your loving presence. I hope that can outweigh a couple of bad actors. This site needs kind souls like yourself to make and brighten our days. I truly hope you will reconsider but not at the expenses of hurting your mentality. I wish you only the best <3

Sorry about it, I've had people being passive aggressive to me here I'm pretty sure, like what @Tesha and @locked*n*loaded said maybe take a break and come back don't let the bullies/trolls win. That's what I did, I get just wanting to disappear and vanish after being disrespected, I've had those feelings also.

You were kind to me on one of the threads in suicide discussion a month ago. Ultimately it's your choice if you want to leave, anyway best wishes and goodbye Walter.

You're a treasured member of this community Walter, don't let what's happened get you down. All the responses here hopefully show you how appreciated your presence is here. You brighten a lot of people's day with your responses, I still remember you telling me about Hawaii before and making me want to visit, it took my mind off the bad things for a bit to talk about traveling with you. I know it's hard when you've had an interaction that's ended badly online, but maybe after some time the impact of that will lessen and you'll feel like coming back.

The dude didn't get bullied. While @assisted was a bit harsh and kind of rude to them they're reaction to the whole situation has been blown way of proportion. The situation happened a few weeks ago and they are still getting worked up over it. I don't think any of my posts were even that mean (though I'm not always the best at understanding how I may come off to others, so maybe to others they do seem mean, idk).

You need to change the way you post. You have really annoyed me in the past, and made me consider leaving the site - you're the only person in 4 years who has managed to do that - so I have no difficulty at all understanding why Walter got upset too.
