Put your big girl panties on

[blackbird]

Ok, I'll "put this gently" bc I'm overly annoyed...



Enough with asking responders to be "gentle". Toughen up and quit being so sensitive. It's getting ridiculous.

I'm confused. What is this in regards to?? I was sucked into ginger being a bitch over on GKU

Feel like I've missed something.

I think it is in reference to the CT post where a couple new posters asked to be corrected "gently" if they messed up.

None of them did, so it wasn't a big deal, but I think maybe newer posters are a little intimidated by the new board, and that blackbird is just saying that they've got to cowgirl up and not ask to be gently corrected, because it is your actions that ask for a gentle correction vs. a flaming. No?

I appreciated that the new posters on the CT tried to follow the format. Kudos to them!

Totally... there was nothing to correct so they were all fine. Hopefully they found that a positive experience and will have more confidence.

True that. I hate when I go in there and just see a huge wall of text.

Big girl panties always get my standing ovation, though!

Agreed bug. I appreciate them following the format. But I don't think they need to ask responders to "be gentle" in their answers. 

I guess I see it as a slippery slope and don't want that to perpetuate throughout posts/threads.

We're an honest community, and it comes from a place of love. Our honest isn't rudeness. I think hopefully people will eventually realize that

Funny, I have felt much less intimidated posting here.

Well, hopefully they get a feel for the vibe!

just caught up. yeah like we'll bite if we have to correct you.

BUT GUISE!! I don't wear panties.

Please be gentle in your flaming. Because I don't have an extra layer to keep my ass from catching on fire.
