I think Strange Famous has been harshly treated here. There are plenty of people who use this board to get attention ("look at me, look how kinky I am, I am the very essence of sexuality, admire me" being one of the more obvious types), even doing so in the guise of giving advice, and they are permitted to do so.
On occasions Strange Famous has made posts where he genuinely wanted help and advice, in some instances the sort of help and advice that you don't want to speak about to someone in person about, but would rather use the anonymity of the internet and the tolerance of the TFP for. In the "Messy Room" post he wasn't even doing that - he was opening up and letting us get to know him a bit better. Bill O'Rights even commented, "How many here would have the guts to lay themselves bare like that?" and yet some here are using that very openness and honesty against him. This is not what I thought the TFP was about.
There have been people posting here about what are, in my opinion, really twisted topics, but no-one called them "sick." And unless you're a psychiatrist, telling someone that it's a fact that they're sick and need professional help is just not on.
