Hi
Am i the only one that feels we now have to be so careful in what we say on this forum?.
I sometimes think is it worth it.
I not only have to use my spell checker i have to psychoanalyze everything i put down in my posting's.
I am afraid of offending someone we either say something and get corrected.
There seems to be people picking on other carer's and nobody needs that.
I got a few thing's wrong last week and was corrected i don't mind that ie got gender wrong calling her him but that was cleared up we have people saying other post's are being sarcastic or saying that they are annoying people.
I think if someone new comes on here they will be frightened off.
I have been trying to mediate with another site and trying to keep the peace i have had some nice emails thanking me for trying other PM's telling me i am wasting my time so i am thinking of just giving up.
You could at one time post on this site and you would get a friendly reception now if you say a word wrong you are jumped on and i don't mean by the moderators who i think do a good job or by the staff but by your fellow members who seem to put more energy in to finding fault with each other than trying to help each other.
I think when we post we must think of others but we cant always get it right so please think before you think we have offended you most of us are not doing it on purpose.
Please let there be some form of understanding before this all get's out of hand.
Kind regards John
