There was a question by a member recently asking if they make “too many” threads or “too many” posts,...

My personal take on this.

Many of us here have been viciously judged by people irl. And many of us have a harsh inner critic. So I see a lot of value in not judging others for the quantity or lack of quantity of posts they make. Everyone has things that trigger them.. I could be triggered by someone telling me the sky is green.

Personally, I also think everyone has something of value to contribute. That is why I personally don’t often use the “ignore” button.

I have occasionally been triggered by, for example, someone making multiple suicide threats, in titles of posts.

But I never judged those people ... either in their thread or someone else’s thread.

Frankly... who am I to judge.

If my kind words have even once helped a fellow human who is in pain...

Then I am kinder than my abusers (irl). And for that I am grateful
