You know, I forgave that bitch. I gave her a free fucking pass. She is the biggest pain in my ass and constantly calling out my posts now when I feel like I was super mild with her. Then again, my super mild = other peoples idea of raging bitch.

[astheria]

It's the scarlet. People somehow read it in her tone of voice and it goes to bitchy very fast, even if it's not meant that way. I personally love scarlet, so to me the voice is more "rawr you go girl"

[wildermom]

I couldn't deal. Had to comment. The desperation here is killing me. I just hate the insinuation that everyone left for her FB group. Umm, no.

I'm not sure what that posters obsession with having randoms join her facebook group is.

She is a catfish. Pretty sure I found her random trash YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/user/kdubbz/feed

Maybe she's actually friending everyone so it looks like she has tons of global IRL friends...

The word "tacky" was thrown around today. I believe it strongly applies in this situation.

She's got to be selling something or recruiting for a MLM. Or she's an identity thief or somesuchshit. I have never seen anyone continually pimp a FB group that hard.

I have this sick desire to know what goes on in there. It would just be way too much trouble to make a fake facebook page for it.

I maaaaay have just reported Facebook girl for violating TOU by trying to pull people to Facebook and away from TB.

She snarked me. I have no excuse.

This situation is getting famous: pandce.proboards.com/thread/409458/mass-banning

Why the fuck did you get banned?

[lavonnallama]

No idea.
Probably has to do with the post I put in parenting asking what bumpy would do differently, so she knows for her next job.

That's my thought exactly.  The good news is all those girls are going to be all about "that crazy wrap thing" or "shakeology" to help them lose the baby weight.

What I'm not going to miss is the "I'm a first time mom" whining. We get it. You're new to this whole thing, but what do you do in the other parts of your life? Like, if you get an eye infection do you immediately take a photo and send it to some forum to ask what people think? If your dog is acting funny, do you crowdsource the answer or do you call your vet/trainer/buddy who knows everything about dogs (we all have one)?

Just because you're a FTM doesn't give you the right to spam the shit out of everyone and ask for medical advice. You'd think it would make you more likely to listen, not less.

This. You know people think that it's regs being mean to the newbs but as bibliothecary might remember one of my first posts was a total shit show. I got on my soapbox about something I SHOULD NOT have been on about and bibs and some others put me in my place real quick. I was new to the boards but I could respect the fact that I was wrong, man up, and say that. Since then things have gone pretty well. Most of these posters don't realize that I literally started posting after my BFP in November. I have been on the boards for 2 months. I realized you have to give to get, you have to have a thick skin, and you have to respect when someone will call you on your shit. These "newbs" that are so butthurt are so fucking annoying.

True. Not everyone has a great start, but if they accept it with grace and move on, as you did, it can be forgotten. It's the insistence that the group change to suit the individual that garners a poor response.

Or the people that continously bring up their past mistakes asking if they are 'forgiven' yet.

Hijacking a bit, but I'm actually going to miss things like 'did anyone get a BFP because of prayer?' And the fisting thread they linked to. Spent just over an hour and laughed so hard I had to get my inhaler.

I can totally agree with this. It's the follow-up to the difficult post turning into an excuse about being a FTM etc. that was so frustrating to see. Accepting the criticism and moving on is a much better approach.

(and I absolutely would not claim to have posted perfectly on TB or elsewhere at first.)

Can I say that the good thing for those of us who have skirted and not been banned is that some of those holier-than-thou, full of butthurt newbs seem like they might have hair-triggers? Which means that as long as you goad them within TOU, I think some of them will definitely pull the 'bitch' card. I think they'll tear each other apart and get banned because they don't yet understand that the TOU bannings they're so celebrating can easily be applied to them. They're going to get sloppy.

For sure!! It will only be a matter of time before they too get tired of the same threads being posted daily.....can't wait to see them redirect to a previous thread and tell them to use the search function! Only I suppose they know how to do it more elequently, you know, without being rude?
