It really seems you are having trouble letting go of the Christmas card swap thread @freddie . I’m going to leave my rejoicing for just a moment to reply, but will not address it again. I (and everyone else) have moved on. Maybe you should too. At this point, your continued harping on this just feels weird and off. We have two separate card swaps, both with a healthy number of participants, that suit the participants based upon their level of comfort with the rules. A lot of holiday cheer is going to be spread and nobody has to feel unsafe. It seems like a win-win to me. It would appear that my post on why I dragged this thread back from the dead was not clear to you. The way I see it I have two options. I can either take another run of explaining why or I can 🤷🏻♀️. I chose 🤷🏻♀️. I like these emojis things, except I’m never sure if I’m using the correct ones. Continued harping. Interesting. That chain of events not only didn’t have to happen and it shouldn’t have happened and if you don’t understand that. 🤷🏻♀️ Please stop. You asked us to let you know when you weren’t living up to the ideals you put forth on this thread that you want all of us to live up to. You’re not. And then coming up with a 12 point list that you think somehow absolves you of failing to treat others with grace even when you don’t agree with them, all the while demanding that the rest of the board do that, leaves me somewhat confused and makes me wonder how you see yourself and your behavior and why you continue to put yourself forth as the model of appropriate message board behavior. Quite a few of us understand the chain of events regarding the card swap and it is why I, along with a number of others, am participating in a card swap here for the first time. If you don’t understand it, that is on you to try to understand even if you don’t agree. Or let it go. But continuing to bring it up again and again demanding that your perception is the only correct one totally blows a whole bunch of your points on that list. |

Congratulations you are another one who either can’t or choses not to understand why I dragged this thread back from the dead. And let’s be clear here. This event did not just happen on the Christmas card thread, this little event actually played out over 4 threads. Finally ending on the thread started to say goodbye to leowife after she had left the board. Remember that was the thread where someone thought it would be a good idea to critique leowife’s relationship with her husband. Or actually trash it if you want to be honest. It’s good that you joined a Christmas Card swap. Really. I’ve joined every year since I’ve retired. And I like doing it. But while your making the cards why don’t you ponder what it would feel like if some stranger who knows very little about you trashed your relationship with your husband on a public board like this for all to see. And how hurtful it would be to leowife if she just checked in to see what has happening and saw that post. Now ladies, can we let this thread die? |

So when I ask you on another thread if your tone was necessary and two other peas have asked if what you are doing is necessary, maybe it's time to reevaluate with how you come across to people. I get it, we've all messed up on here, but please realize you are not a shining example of appropriate behavior here. |

To those who has a problem with the term “you’re not paying attention” I say look at items 1, 2, 10, & 11. And thanks for tagging me in your post when it was clearly me you were talking about. |

And how hurtful it would be to leowife if she just checked in to see what has happening and saw that post. Now ladies, can we let this thread die? You can listen to the number of people who are telling you that you aren’t following your advice re: appropriate behavior - LIKE YOU ASKED US TO DO - or risk that it appears that all of your words were a charade to cover up a run-of-the-mill handslap. Not everyone sees everything that happened re:Leowife as you do. They don’t. They never will. That is human nature, which it appears to be a concept that is challenging for you for some reason right now. I could ask you in the same awful tone you showed me to consider while you make your cards to consider how shitty leowife was to everyone who participated in a BLM protest. She said crap that certainly didn’t apply to my 85 y.o. mom whose assisted living facility took her to march in MD. Not everyone will ever see every issue - NSBR, political, and otherwise - exactly as you see it and that is okay. They won’t see it as I do either. That is life. You seem incredibly invested in everyone seeing your way or take the highway these days, whether regarding card swaps or AOC’s opinions on TLP. Just because people don’t want to live their lives by your dictates doesn’t make them bad people, nor is it realistic for you to expect them to live according to your guidelines. And you seem to have a LOT of those guidelines for everyone else. There is a LOT you may want to let go. Or don’t be surprised when people push back. As for your calls for “what is wrong with us?” “Can’t we show others more grace and kindness?” It really seems more and more like it is a passive aggressive and poorly camouflaged way of handslapping people you disagree with. Because you aren’t showing your idealized behavior in the slightest to the people YOU disagree with, only those you are defending. Which is fine. But drop the pretense that isn’t a vendetta on your part, unless you don’t mind looking insincere. |

Today a group of peas ran another pea off the board.
This played out over two threads during the last couple of days. On the second thread it was a text book case of trolling.
Their behavior, IMO, was no better then a bunch of schoolyard bullies.
While I was reading their posts I thought if you don’t like this person why don’t you just ignore them. It’s really simple.
It wasn’t just the boorish behavior by these individuals that made me feel I should say something. It’s also the name calling that has been going on when one pea doesn’t agree with the opinion of another pea.
In the last couple days peas have been called “a colossal piece of shit”, a “fucking moron” and told to “go fuck themselves” via a meme.
And there was the thread were certain peas were called out and invited to explain themselves. Specific peas were mention and one when name came up another pea called this person a “cunt”.
To those who troll someone you don’t like or call people the names like the ones above, is this the kind of example you set for your kids off the board? That if they did this to other kids you would be ok with it?
If you don’t like someone, just ignore them. If you disagree with someone’s opinion and you can’t disagree with them without calling them a “colossal piece of shit”, ignore them. Otherwise you come off looking like vindictive schoolyard bullies.
I’m no Pollyanna, but I find this type of behavior unacceptable and it should be for all decent adults. IMO.

Otherwise you come off looking like vindictive schoolyard bullies. I’m no Pollyanna, but I find this type of behavior unacceptable and it should be for all decent adults. IMO. I haven't been involved in those threads with the card swap and I've never had any argument with leowife that I can recall - we must have read and posted on different threads, so my comments now have no basis in those specific threads. But we are gown women here posting on this board, not where kids can overhear our conversations, so WTF does anyone's children have to do with anything? They aren't reading nor are they posting, so get off your high horse about setting an example for kids. It's also sexist and offensive to assume that everyone here has children or needs to set an example for children. It's not the 1940s and we "little women" aren't all at home raising children and playing Mary Homemaker. So if you don't want to be viewed as some old fossil with misogynistic ideas about women's roles in society, you might want to ditch the "example you set for your kids" eyeroll worthy crap. As an adult you should understand adult concepts, and it's completely possible to use certain language in one place and not in another. I use the word fuck when I'm talking to my friends. I don't use that word ever when I'm talking to my 75yo mother, nor do I use it when I'm at work. So if an adult female uses the word cunt here that does not mean they are OK with their CHILD using that word. Lots of people smoke weed and drink alcohol and get tattoos - all OK for adults and not OK for children. It's really not that hard to understand how the two things are completely different. As an adult you should also be able to understand that we all get to decide what our acceptable standards of behavior are. You don't make the policy on that, and if I want to call someone whose idea I find reprehensible a cunt - then I will. No-one here is beholden to your standards. FWIW, snowsilver is a cunt. She has spews a vile racist rhetoric and just because she cloaks it in fake politeness doesn't make it any less offensive. Now if you can't handle grown women having strong opinions, and sometimes using language you personally don't like - then it's you who needs to either learn to live with it - or to leave. I dish it out and I get it dished back and I've had people attempt to smack me down in the middle of an otherwise innocent thread just because they don't like me, BUT there is no way in hell I'd ever claim anyone "ran me off the board". It's entirely within my control if I stay or not. No-one here has any power over anyone else to make them do anything. I will post how I want to post and when I want to post, if someone annoys be enough to elicit a strong response then I'm not just going to ignore it, some people need to hear it. YOU don't get to decide what is acceptable for anyone else on the board except for yourself, you don't make the rules, you don't get to tell anyone else how to respond, nor if they should respond or not. This isn't Freddies perfect fantasy board, it's a board of grown women, of different ages, different experiences from different countries and we ALL get to have our say equally, and those who cannot deal with the occasional heat, need to get out of the fucking kitchen. |

TBH, I don’t see a lot of the nastiness. I look at threads that interest me, and comment fairly often, but there are many threads that I don’t open. There are a few peas that I don’t like, either because I find them annoying or because they seem miserable and generally bitchy. I have a few on ignore, because why not? So a lot of stuff goes right over my head.
Generally I only leave one pea on ignore, but the pandemic has lessened my tolerance for bullshit.

Brings out the worst? It depends on your perspective.
This board has helped me find my voice. I have always tried to be kind, helpful, non-confrontational. I’ve always been mindful of what I post and how I say it. I am a wife, a mother, a grandmother. What I say and do matters. What do I want my legacy to be, what and how I want to be remembered. It matters greatly to me. For the last 21 years I’ve been on this board. Until...this past fall. It was then I found my voice.
I took great exception to how the Christmas card exchange was going to be conducted. I stood my ground. I’m glad I did. She was way outline and I called her on it. I got blamed for creating drama. SMDH. The bias on this board is astounding. There have always been cliques and groupies. Always will be. Shrug.
I’m no longer afraid to voice my opinion.

Leowife was the only Pea I had on ignore, her hateful rhetoric couched in politeness and 'oh my gosh' that's not what I meant fakeness when she got called out was sickening. A polite piece of shit is still a piece of shit.

She wasn't "run off", she chose to leave because she can't handle any pushback.
