Topic: RE: Delete a post BECAUSE I was helpful?

Who cares if someone deletes a post.... After seeing people attacked on here, I don't blame people for deleting their posts. Then trying to calm the haters down for attacking you for expressing an idea, you get attacked for deleting the post. You can't win. Also what's this about rewriting history?? I don't understand how deleting a post means your rewriting history. Some people must be very bored with their lives. If you want to delete your post, DELETE IT. Who cares...

I didn't jump to ANY conclusions.  I merely asked if you were going to delete the rest of your responses since you have already deleted entire posts and about half of your responses on this one.  I wasn't "nasty"... but I will admit to being "snarky".

FWIW, because I realize that you may not be aware of this, deleting posts (for any reason) is a quick way to lose credibility/respect/etc. on an internet board.  Too many people do it in order to "rewrite history" and so when someone does it for ANY reason, it really rubs people the wrong way.  Hence the snark.

She was accused of making up her issues. Please explain how you would feel if after suffering complications and venting on your support board, you were met with that attitude? 

I like the way people think that just because they have time on the board it gives them a pass to act like an asshole. And by like I mean it's garbage. If you can't get your **** together enough to actually behave like a human being anymore because you've become so desensitized to this process and exactly what it's like in the beginning then it's time for you to find a NEW HOBBY for the love of everything good in the world. Seriously. Move on with your life. You're not needed here anymore. 

I read all of the original thread. No one was out of line, or acted like an a-hole. If you disagree with some of the help offered, so be it. But I think everyone was trying to be helpful.

Actually I blocked a couple of people and thought that because of that I just had random answers to things other people couldn't see.  I didn't realize until someone explained it to me the thread shows up in total, just not to me.

But there we go jumping to conclusions and being nasty when we don't know the whole story.

What kills me is that not only did she apparently delete two of her own posts, but she has deleted about half of her responses on her own post complaining about the responses she got on one of the deleted posts!

(Confused yet, LOL?!?)

Seriously? Annoying as... well, you know...

What, you don't want to delete the rest of your responses first??  I think there are three or four of them still left...
