What kind of posts.....

I've been participating in BAF for at least the last 5 years.
I'm an on and off kinda girl. I try to responde to at least one post a day.   I  realize we are all adults and have been raised once and thus there is no need to try to CHANGE anyone or their own OPINION.  I have made friends online and in real life that I communicate with here.

Watching the post that go on here sometimes I feel it and others I just don't.

If you ask for prayer - I pray for you - don't have to announce it - I just send it on up.
If someone has already said what I would have said - no need to say it again.
If I don't agree but do not feel the need to try to change your mind - I respectfully respect your position - no need to post.
If I feel it's just totally ridiculous and my response is to go into Mommy mode and say what I really feel and  then add and additional kick in the azz - I keep it to myself.  This is after all the internet and we are ALL adults.....right???

There are posts that I just will not get into...
>>>>>the long drawn out what your professional, legal,  ethical, spiritual opinion so they can tell you where you are wrong post.
>>>>>the let's beat somebody up cause WE collectively just don't like them post
>>>>>The I know I'm wrong as hell but I want at least one person on here to tell me I'm right post.

I will respond to stuff that I have a response to and I feel like I want to add to.
I will respond where I see someone really in need of assistance and my experiences can actually help.
I will respond when you have made me ROFL and you are being an absolute fool and you know it  and it's all in fun.

So..... What about you?
What will you and won't you respond to and why?

I almost ain't respond to THIS just CAUSE!!!!

I don't repond to whatever I don't feel like.  Some days I don't WANT to be supportive, some days I AIN'T prayin and some days - NO COOKIE - I AIN'T TELLIN YOU WHAT I ATE!!!!

LMAOOOOOOOOO

I am a moody, shady, shifty and sometimey kinda mofo - never can guess what I will be inclined to say or not - that's why I am becoming more of a 'regular' on the R&R board - I find that folk up in here get cagey and will flip and decide that SOME posts are not on topic enough, not supportive enough or WHATEVER enough - then you gotta deal with drama.

R&R ain't nothing BUT drama - so I KNOW exactly what to expect over thur!!!!

I hear ya MM!!!
What evvah don't respond to me!!!  LOL
I do understand. 

I did ask for a reason because there has just been something bugging me.
Is it rascist?  Is it opinion?  Is it research???  Is it a particular person?? Are they shadey or on point?  I see more and more sitrring the pot to see what comes up.  It's not always fun or funny.  When it ceases to be those things it looses me.

I see you posting over on R & R.  I actually like them a lot.  I just can't tell a story like you can, but then nobody can.  It's all entertainment to me.  That's why I keep paying the cable bill so I can get on when I can.

girl - I get tired of the double entendres, the sideline talking and such - ain't got time to read BETWEEN the lines - hell - I barely get time to read the mofoin LINES themselves!!!

I AM tired of CERTAIN posts/posters saying the same Yakkity-yack..... I just cruise on by them now.

I was a lurker for a long time before posting and kinda got an idea of some of the interplay between folks on the board.  I don't consider myself a fitness guru, so I don't post on that, but i do encourage Lesia, MM, and others that are kicking butt everyday.  I don't dislike anyone on the board and don't feel the need to beat them up when others are already doing so.  I tend to reply to mostly LapBand topics and to off topic posts that I think are funny.

Hi Michelle,

I think people really get in where they fit in.
I also like the off topic posts.  Heck WLS is my 24/7 reality  there are times when I want a break.  I actually believe that everyone has something to contribute.  The real thing is for those who need what is bieng put out to be able to really get it.

Nice new avie, Michelle!!!

Thank you Donna!

Hey sweetie


What I NORMALLY want respond too BUT will give an applaud post....

I am leaving BAF post

Everybody Hate me post

Never around to give support BUT pop in to show off new pics of themselves and or their kids

Stupid azz relationship post - ex. My husband is cheating on me, BUT I still love him what should I do??

Stupid azz post-op questions - I had surgery a 3 weeks ago and ONLY lost 20 pounds, WTF??? When you dieted on your own how much did you lose in 3 weeks?

Another dumb post-op post - I am only 2 weeks out and against my doctors orders I ate a WHOLE PIZZA.

I will NEVER understand with today's technology (internet) how ANYONE could EVER be clueless about any surgery there is sooooooooooooo much research out there.



Outside of those I normally respond to post, if I feel like it.

Mrs Rhonda
