I feel like crap.

So after posting for a week trying to make this a better place and many of you read my rants, etc.

I really felt good after posting some of the stuff I posted recently.

And then an hour ago I gave up and tried to sink back down to the 285bound level. I posted my harsh unproductive opinion a few places, because that is what everyone decided this place was really about.

And now I feel like crap again.

So thanks for helping me learn, I am going to take a little or big break, posting in this place is not productive and makes me feel like crap when I spend time with people crap people with crap fingers that crap out of their mouths and then act like crap. I tried, perhaps I will see you soon. I am just sick of feeling bad about the world every time I reach out to try and change it.

285bound is a place for rude, unproductive people that make me feel bad, that's fine, it just makes the place suck, suck the life out of me. Most of 285bound is the courthouse, to bad it degraded to nothingness in a matter of minutes. I hope you guys continue to enjoy this place, I cannot handle it after realizing that all people want to do is insult each other and specifically not learn how to be better people and community members and chew on crap.

Enjoy your shit show,

now you can post all those empowering things like don't let the door hit you on the way out. BTW, it didn't. Please remember I had the best of intentions, but this is the Courthouse, that works against you with the design of this place.

IMO, it is not the design, it is what some people have chosen to make of it.

In any event, enjoy some time off, and please return when you want to!

I believe that if the rest of us post productively and intelligently we can drown out the ugliness of the trolls. If we cede the discourse to them here, we cede it everywhere. The ugly voices that have taken over the Courthouse are the same as the voices that have taken over the national discourse. Just as they are poisoning this site for their own selfish amusement and gratification, people like them are doing the same to the country. Perhaps if we can figure it out here, we can apply it elsewhere.

no you can't

That might be what YOU make of it but that does not have to be how others see it. I appreciate your intentions over the past week or so. Sorry you lost faith in the community to uphold respect for one another. I think it is still there somewhat, so I am not giving up just yet. I'll pick my battles and wade through the crap if I have to for that nugget. Still keeping in mind all that has been said here lately.
:Thanks:

Good post Chickeree.

And six months ago they were blaming me for the whole mess on here... so... I haven't been around as much... and this place is still infested. That's why I call myself the "Liberal's GOP Twin." It was a pun on the liberal assholes on this forum and my job was to hold a mirror to their face. Looks like the liberal trolls won. In the future I'll take any comments about me being the sole cause of trouble around here with a grain of salt.

Anyway... my points have been proved.

Get over yourself. Nobody ever called you the sole cause of trouble. Both sides have trolled these pages from day 1. You pointing out one side only did not help matters.

I agree, same as watching TV. Wading thru all the crap to get to one good show!
