Hence in light of recent attacks and false accusations of attacking ,which have distressed me, I have decided,for the sake of my psychological health,to stop posting news articles.
I know that this will upset a few people but I can’t tolerate, for the sake of my well being, being falsely accused. Above all being falsely accused lends an unwarranted justification to those who attacked me to do so in the future.
I am sorry it has to end this way but I no longer feel comfortable,or safe, posting news articles.
Some of us are counting on others to do what they are not capable of. Please do not stop posting, it is so important. Staying in touch with the latest news feeds my hope for a better tomorrow and I am sure it is the same thing for others.
When a moderator accuses you dishonestly of attacking for defending yourself against attacks. thus legitimising the behaviour of the person that attacked you in the first place, it no longer feels safe to post such articles.
I’m sorry to hear that @firemonkey. I hope that this will just be temporary, but take care of yourself. You find a lot of great info. You’re a major resource for this forum.
Don’t know what to do . I have to protect myself against attacks and false accusations ,which I consider abusive and triggering, but I don’t want to let people down.
Your emotions are running wild right now, which is understandable.
Take a day or two to calm down and see things from a distance, before you make a decision. Maybe things will look different in a couple of days.
Best of luck to you.
@firemonkey it is like this on the internet, if you are active you may run into trouble.
I think that as long as your posts are not deleted/you are not banned or warned
you are free to continue.
Expecting universal approval? You are asking for too much I believe.
I understand that you have to do what you have to do to protect yourself. I want you to know how much I appreciate all the news articles you’ve posted since I’ve become a member. It was very nice of you to share with me. Take care sweetheart.
As you can see, and as I said both in the flagged thread and in the PM with you, your news articles are helpful and important. I have to close this thread, however, as we don’t really have the time and energy to discuss every moderator decision on the public forums. Please respect this. If you have any problems with any of the moderators, you should talk to any or all of us directly. Again, I was only trying to help you two get along by not siding with either one of you, and by asking you both to be nicer to each other. I can assure you that I did not mean to legitimize attacks against you. If you do continue to post news articles, I hope you will flag attacks instead of responding to them. That seems like the best solution to me.
