This is going in the blog, so it hopefully wont get as much of a response as the threads did in the main forum, or,. any response at all.
Everyone knows that I've expressed my appreciation for support I received when my mom was sick and died, with passing the insurance exam, when I left Aflac, the job search, etc. .
I stand by my belief that attacking/negative replies to months/years old threads, or taking whatever problem someone has with me on here, to another venue where I communicate with relatives, friends, and business people who I deal with in real life, is disgraceful.
All that having been said..
What really matters to me, is this..
When I assess my life, and behavior.. it isnt.. "Oh, Mitch inadvertantly posted something in the main forum of TMF which got replies for months, or years".
It is..
"Mitch was disgraceful in his behavior to his dying mother when she was facing a terminal illness, and the fact that Mitch was dealing with is alone, are no excuse for his behavior",.
It is..
"Mitch didnt visit his paralyzed maternal grandfather in the nursing home enough, even after Mitch's grandfather told Mitch's mother, how Mitch's grandfather "adored Mitch".
It is..
Even though Mitch's parents gave in to Mitch's wish to have a dog when Mitch was young.. Mitch, even though he walked the dog, and fed the dog, and took care of the dog, and even though the dog had proper care for a pet, Mitch probably didnt pay attention to the dog as much as he should have. The fact that Mitch was a quiet, lonely kid, was no excuse. Thats what dogs are for, to keep lonely people company
Even if I never get married, or have children..
THOSE are the things, with which I hope the greater force judges me, when deciding whether to send me to Heaven or Hell.. and not..
"What disputes Mitch has or doesnt have, with people on a tickling forum".
Those in my real life, not saying who, because I dont want to post that information..
Those in my real life, who know I belong to this forum, and who know the information that has been drudged up, and hammered away at.. months after it was posted, and was taken to another venue, where I communicate with people who I deal with in real life, have encouraged me to
"Just leave the forum, just give it up".
Such is easy for them to say.
I dont, and havent,, as angry as I get with some of the attacks on me here, for several reasons.
I feel like such would be turning my back on friends, many of whom were very supportive to me, during the triumphs and tragedies of my life.
There are still things which I enjoy about this forum, in spite of the attacks against me.
I've vowed that as angry and as frustrated as I get with the attacks, I'm not going to let the trolls/attackers win the war.
I'm just going to stay, follow my vow to myself, not to post personal information on the main forum, where it could lead to an attack.
The way I see it..
The people who continue attacks in threads that are months old, and take the attacks to another forum..
Such is their problem, and not mine.
That;s all.
Hopefully, if I post no information that could lead to an attack, the attacks will cease,.
