If people aren’t breaking the rules in some way, nothing will come from the report. I don’t think people really abuse the report button in that sense. I’ve heard that some have made a lot of reports when they’ve been upset with someone which makes a lot of work for the mods, but it’s not like people will be given a warning just because a report was made.

I am unhappy about the effects of illnesses and of incurable diseases.
Deeply unhappy.

No-one is harassing me as such. I just hate being told not to put something that other people put all the time.

Like one time at my old job, I just wrote on Facebook "had a bad day" or something like that, and the next day my supervisor came up to me and gave me a lecture about putting anything negative about work on Facebook. I protested that I didn't even mention work but she said that it's obvious that I was referring to work in my post because I had had a bad day at work, and she said that it's best not to put anything negative at all on Facebook that could be about work.
But then a few weeks later another worker there put something like "I need another job, feeling stressed here" on her Facebook feed and got told off about it by another member of staff, but the same supervisor who'd told me off about it was on her side and said that it's OK to put something like that on Facebook about work.
So I couldn't work that one out and got annoyed.


Oh you got reported for something. I got reported for derailing my own thread last week. Lol

I wouldn't worry about it.


Yeah that was weird.
I only report people if they really trigger me like an unprovoked personal attack. I haven't reported anyone for ages. I only do as a last resort.

It’s probably better to report someone than to complain about them publicly.


I don't even know who reported me, and I used to wish people wouldn't complain about other members publicly but we've established in another thread that that isn't against the rules and that people have a right to do it, so I do. I wouldn't keep on though, as in trying to shame the member then thinking I could get away with it by saying "but I didn't mention their name, it could have been about anyone!" That's the oldest trick in the book.

When I went through this, learning of the things they’d do with other people that they wouldn’t do with me was near the top of the list of demeaning and depressing things. I’ve seen this happen to you, too, but just as I was about to stop looking, when I had determined that certainty wasn’t going to happen, I found the worst of it. Now I understand. I still don’t have certainty, but this is pretty close. If my taking so long to finish this had any positive aspect, it was finding this very important post. I wish it was better news. I wish it had proved me wrong. But at least I know why it happened. I’m so sorry.

My mother made me unhappy today. That woman, I swear. One of my daughters is having a rough go lately and hasn't been calling my mom like she normally does. She's going on hide mode because she's spending every bit of energy she has right now just maintaining. I know my parents are worried, so I texted my dad last night to assure him that while she isn't okay, it isn't something they need to stress...that she just needs space and her being distant just means she knows they love her enough to not hate her for it...she feels safe with them. I told him that they shouldn't take it personal and that it will be okay. My mother's response to this was to leave a nasty voicemail on my daughter's phone today chewing her out for treating them like sh*t...thinking she can just ignore them and hurt them like it's fine. Ugh. My mother has this ability to take everything and turn it around to an attack on herself, even someone's need for space and rest. Outstanding.

I've never understood this. It's not going to harass the person they're unhappy with, just the mods who get the reports.

I feel your pain. My daughter flew to UK on holiday and came back, a couple of weeks ago. My mother hadn't heard from me the whole time my daughter was gone, and neither of us rang her to say she got back safely. I mean, it's not like front page news or anything. My mother finally rang my daughter and told her off. Then my mum told my daughter she thought my daughter had possibly been killed in UK or she was still there in hospital because of a medical emergency, and that I had neglected to tell her about it because a) I forgot, or b) I didn't want to upset her with news that her granddaughter was dead or on life support.

Cuz yeah, that's how I roll apparently?

My daughter asked why I would fail to tell her something so important and she said it's because I had an angry look on my face the last time I saw her for five minutes. My daughter and I both forgot we had even seen her, the time she mentioned. It was my resting bitchhh face apparently. I guess she doesn't know it well enough after a lifetime of raising me?

She still hasn't called me directly to make double-sure her granddaughter isn't dead, and it wasn't an imposter on the phone or my daughter answering from a UK hospital bed and pretending not to be on a ventilator.

That happened to me once. It was the only bus that went to where I worked as well and then they completely took that particular bus off. Crazy.

Earlier today, my mom accused me of taking part in a financial scheme.

(Really Mom, really?! :evil: )
