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

Just coming here to post about this! The only reason I see for people to delete their posts is if they are ashamed of themselves. Just stand by your posts or don't post at all. Rewriting history is cowardly and makes you look like you don't believe in what you are posting.

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. 

You just being mean and attacking her personally. That is not cool..  Not cool at all..

I get really irritated when people delete posts, or entire threads. They are just trying to rewrite history and make themselves look better.

Stand behind what you write. Apologize if you need to. Add additional explanation. But don't delete.

The crazy train is at maximum speed today.  Unfortunately, common courtesy and gracious behavior has devolved into deleting posts to cover up bad behavior.  I think that's sad.

After reading posts on OH for months, I don't understand how some people passed their psych evaluations.

OP is standard internet speak for Original Poster - it's used when someone replies to someone other than the OP, but then wants to address a part of their reply to the OP - it lets you know which part of the post is for you!

This is the "problem" with forums - you can't control how people reply to you. You can only control how you react. Much like the rest of life!
