I have aided in this lack of development myself because I have censored myself. Not because of fear of moderation, but fear of rocking the happy loveboat.
Now that people are already saying 'I never knew she thought that!' I feel a weight lifted. I feel that I can now be balanced like I am in real-life. I already rocked the boat and maybe that's what this forum needs.

Well, let;s see how evolutionary and real it all is....
"I am amazed at how people, when there are no real rules around, will attack others and feel that it is fair to take their aggression out for no reason."Soon after, your spouse went on a soliloque about my insecurities and no-talent need for attention....uh, this after you'd told me in a pm to 'don't take his bait, seek revenge!!' then joined into the fray
"Not the first time I guess that's been said. I try to not bring in my real-life friendships into TFP."
Uh, Honey...that's where your real friends all CAME from.....
"I think that people telling other people they suck is not a good way to build a positive reputation"
Yet...you got mod status...how's that work exactly? That part never was clear to me....
"And the fact that she continues to piss and moan about being bullied after insisting that she doesn't care...well that doesn't earn my respect."
Says the woman who dismissed respect a couple of posts ago? Something about it not being important in an internet setting because we 'only internet entities'?
"An outsider would think you are being overdramatic and over sensitive." It's 'overly'.(well, you did brag about the masters....) And that would mean.....you're an outsider? Again, I am perplexed here.
See, this is a problem with sibling forums. You can't hide behind one thing and expect it to not be noticed elsewhere.
Surprisingly enough, I'm really not cutting you down because it's a fun, evil thing. But the hypocrisy can't be so blatant when you're in places that the very things you say and do can and will be compared and called on.
And if you are going to apologize for something, it should at least be a sincere one; otherwise, you only look that much worse and lose...well, rep.
If you are going to stand behind what you say, you best make sure it's the truth because it can and WILL backfire on you. Word from an old, washed up, insecure body.
I think I'm done. Note, I said....'think'
