So, someone who has lost 100+ pounds and reached their goal no longer has value here?
do you actually by heart even if i my self don't agree with her opinion think that that was what she meant ? really?...
No im saying if you've been sucessful then you shouldnt be so hard on new members . Otherwise wtf are you doing here ????
I haven't been successful. Can I continue to be "hard on new members"?

She must have reached her goal then and be a regular apparently.0 -
It gets more difficult to be really supportive when OPs (some trolls, some not) ask such silly questions - things they could easily answer in two minutes with a google search. It's also tough with so many off the wall "chit-chat" posts that come up in the feed. I try to be really nice and supportive...but there is a limit to the amount of stupidity I can take.0

Basic human decency?
But yeah, that's my own character flaw that I'm still working on.0 -

Seriously, I've been called mean/troll for: using copy/paste advice posts, suggesting that someone who feels sick after eating breakfast doesn't need to eat breakfast, linking people to the sexypants thread, asking people further questions about what their routine looks like when they ask for help, because I called someone out when they implied that asking someone to open their diary is bullying.
Because the accusation gets thrown around so often, threads like this actually add to the negative atmosphere instead of helping it. When everyone on the boards gets called mean on a regular basis, any post that calls out the "mean people" without specifying who they are talking about will end up attacking everyone.
There is some negativity and aggressiveness on these boards that goes above and beyond what should be here. But it's not the norm and is often called out when these regulars that you seem to dislike see it. Report it (use the actual report function, not the flags that no one pays attention to) or call it out where you see it, but posts like this are never going to solve the problem that you think exists.

That's not ironic! That's just bad planning. Now maybe if you were marrying a weatherman, and he set the date...0
