I bought this up a few weeks ago.

I am ignoring those who I find are not contributing to my journey in a positive way. There's not a lot more that you can do...

I just hope the Mods are noticing what's happening and who's doing it (Mods, you do a great job, btw).

I love being a member of the forum but I am finding the constant negativity frustrating. I don't come here to be bullied or feel uncomfortable. I am sure most of us don't either...

I think that we have to expect some negative comments. We do not all think the same unfortunately. I think if you feel someone has said something hurtful the should be told rather then ignored.

I know if I had upset anyone by my comments I would preferred to be told 'suzy that was a bit harsh' or 'i disagree with suzy'. it would help prevent me from doing it again in the future.

Or it might also have someone explain their reasonings better. In type, some things come across harsh and I know I'm one for doing that unintentionally.

I have to say that I must live in a vacuum because I dont see the negative comments.. not that they arent there I'm sure lol
The point as I see it is this. We are all adults just trying to cope as best we can with what we have chosen to have done.
We all have different reasons for our surgery and we are the only ones that we have to answer to.
We come on here for advice or to share our victories or sometimes failures but having said that....
Life is not going to be all roses. We're not always going to have people agreeing with what we write or say and thats okay too.
Its all about free speech and personal opinion.
Take from it what will make you stronger and ignore the bits you don't agree with.
Be happy kids !!
