The original thread has been closed and I understand why. It's sad though, I'm sure the OP is never coming back. Perhaps if the bashing/reported posts were deleted early on she'd still be here and the thread wouldn't have gone so far down hill. JMO And the people who'd think twice about coming back or posting would be those who choose to bash without thinking first.
I applaud the moderators and Admin for the hard decisions they make everyday and I really hope that this isnt' coming across as criticism...it's not their fault people are sometimes insensitive to what is really at stake. And I'm sure I don't understand the big picture in the same way that they do. I just can't help but thinking that with stronger rules against bashing and the rest of us using "that magic little triangle" perhaps things might get just a little bit better.

I know I've said things here that I wish had been deleted right away.
