Really! I echo that, What is wrong with these people? I think they are the ones that need therapy, not us. They need what is called EMPATHY TRAINING. They have no clue about how they make others feel.
I just read about this kind of training in a book called BULLYING AMONG OLDER ADULTS by Robin P. Bonifas. There is a website that she mentions too: http://www.dlmculture.com Trolls and bullies and the like need this program, as well as we who are targetted by them.

It took awhile to get over it.I was going back to the site and seeing the persons attacking posts that were still there and it made me get upset all over again each time I went there,so I finally stopped altogether.Not going back was the solution for me.Sometimes I still think about it and it still upsets me.It was such an unfair experience.But,the other person was part of a clique I wasn't a part of,which included the admin being in that circle too.The ones outside of it were treated so unfairly. |

I finally cut myself off from two friends from there. I really don't want any more to do with my own site that I've been talking about, including those associated with it. The whole experience for me became tainted. I don't want to be reminded. ((((hugs))))) ![]() |

I am sorry this happened to you. forums shouldn't be a bad, abusive experience, especially if they are mental health related. they should be kind and supportive, I suppose I can argue yes... you can get bad members everywhere you go, not like that what you described. just know that will never happen here. hugs |

Sorry. I typed sue-fire in my previous reply instead of sure-fire. Damn keys. Do you not think it would be a better idea if members could go back and edit their posts at any time? I usually read my message through before I hit the post button, but the odd typo can occur.
Anyway, I think that other forum I was on has a very incompetent owner. I mean, who the heck leaves a busy forum with no moderators despite there being members that still sign in a lot and contribute? The troll knows about that too. It's a stupid move. But, yeah. 5 years of posts down the drain because of one worthless a-hole requesting I be banned. I'd been posting there since 2012 and was banned last week because of one idiot. Jesus! |

5 years and this just happened? It's still fresh. I am very sorry. :/ That's a long time to have devoted. Wish I had more comforting words for you, but I've found this place to be wonderful so far, so I am glad you made it here! ![]() |

There's a guy I liked on here. He deleted his account. That was ages ago.

Yeah, I used one other site myself (I won't disclose it's name for obvious reasons) where I was hurt from a lot of bad stuff (including a negative experience with trying to date a girl that I met on Facebook that hurt me really badly) that I was dealing with at that time and I made a post saying that I couldn't get a girlfriend because I didn't have any money so I wanted money and power so women would respect me and want to be with me and I was told by a few members to go kill myself.
Needless to say, I gave up on MH forums for awhile after that. |

If I know what site it is, I probably signed up to troll in my very spare-boring time at work. That kind of forum will be fun for troll. Anyway keep us informed. You should go off from that site. |

I used to go to some autism forums. Actual autism forums. I don't now. They said it was my fault for losing my support, as well as my flat. But I'm trying to move past that era. There's no point in living in the past. They're getting on with their lives now anyway.

Yes, I'm looking at this 5 years thing too. I was on that other forum for about 5 years without incident. Then I made one mistake which I think was an honest mistake, because the warning against doing it is in pale grey letters, which my eyes did not see. Yes, the warning is there, but I think it should not be so invisible.
Then I got attacked in private emails on that forum, thought it was not worth the bother to report (big mistake) and then the person who started the email deleted it, so I had no way to prove who started it, when I decided to speak out about it and complain. Then, when I made another mistake, that was not even in the rules at all! I got banned. Then, when I had a Bipolar Manic, they banned me again, because of "dysregulation" and my being manic. I've mentioned some of this here before, but all this happened in the last few months, whereas I had 5 years of donating $$$ to the place and no hassles what so ever. I thought my record should have spoken for itself, but I guess not. I am still under a ban there until the 26th. I want to communicate with the few friends I MAY still have there and let them know they can Private Message me. I might continue to write in my DIARY there. Also, I might say something on my profile. However, other than that, I am DONE. DONE DONE DONE!!! I really don't feel I did anything that was so outrageous that I should have been banned 3 times in the last 3 months, and never have been banned for 5 years before that. It just does not make sense. I am quite sure it has to do with "the IN crowd" there, whose toes I probably stepped on. I did not break rules in doing so, so they had to find "things" which are not in the rules to ban me for. Just because I stepped on the "wrong" toes.

You are right about the rest of it though. I am feeling so OUT of the IN CROWD there right now, and I don't see any way to fix it. Every time I try to fix it, I dig myself deeper into hot water. I remember that I said I was feeling like leaving because of all the negativity there, and the owner chided me, accusing me of "trying to get attention" and said basically to just leave and not say I was leaving. In other words, don't say anything wrong about his "IN CROWD" and his little "Pets", just leave quietly without complaining about anyone or anything. So, he cannot take criticism well, nor even if it is about others. Don't criticize his website at all, in other words, or you are going to become "toast." I know I will be watched very closely when and if I return there. Any little mis-step, and I will probably get banned forever. I'm afraid to even go there and just plain BREATHE! For cryin' out loud!!! ![]()

Hello all,
I think it is time to close this thread. Unfortunately when people start talking about specifics of issues that have happened on other websites it can start to cause issues here. Please do not start another thread on this topic. I am available by PM if you have any questions. TheWell |
