Re: Seriously?

  • Dude, seriously?! Who f*cking does that!?!  I know it's an open forum and yes you should watch what you say, but i thought this board was a little family and a good place to vent.  Now between this one and poor KrisJay's pregnancy drama i may need to watch what i say much more closely.

    I'm so sorry Amy.  that just sucks.

    I know - so much for that feeling of a decent group of folks. Because I will also bet that it wasn't just some random lurker who did this either --- they had to know enough and read enough to know what Amy was even talking about. And then to twist what she said (b/c she wasn't disparaging to the company at ALL, she was talking about her fear and situation) means not only is it a lurker but it's not even a good person.

  • I've taken my personal photos off my siggy, my kids names, etc. I can't believe someone would do this.  It might also be better if we didn't refer to people by name in our posts, so lurkers don't know who we are IRL. We should stop posting emails in public posts and use the PM fuction more.  Start going back to first initials of kids names or DS, DD, etc.  Thats crap Amy.  I'm so sorry.  
  • Wow, I'm really sorry to hear that! I know I'm pretty open with personal details on the boards (more on my "home" bump board since it's been so slow here), but these posts make me realize that I should be more careful.  I probably shouldn't link my blog, either (not that I've updated in forever, but that's another story). 

    That really sucks, I hope there isn't a big issue for your husband at work.

  • You have every right to be upset and vent. I would be extremely hurt and angry.  Sorry :(

  • I'm so sorry.  That is so scary in some ways.  I didn't see you initial post but I'm sure it wasn't that bad....this isn't something you should have t odeal with :-/
  • That sucks!  I am sorry someone did this and you have to deal with this crap, your husband too- although he shouldn't have to.  Just no need.  That is why I don't post all that much and don't tell to much about myself... not sure if you remember, but when everything was going on with my dad people were trying to figure out who I was.  I still don't really know who is on here and have to watch what i say, worried who I might be saying something about and it coul dbe about someone on here- although, like you said, some things I sould say right to their face. :-)  Still sucks you have to even feel liek this though!!

    I was going to post something to you when I saw your post... on a happier note... I went to DD's last family night/  It was so cute.  I just love seeing teh kids singing their songs together.  I do have to say, DD was very good.  he he.  she was singing loudly and animated.  I was very proud since last year she was so shy.  I hope you enjoy your night too. 

  • i am so sorry. it was not me!!!  i would never... i have my own problems- which i would love to vent about, but most def will not after alll of the recent backstabbing sh!t on here.

     that sucks. seriously people, its not your place to fuuck with the lives of others.

    First of all, that really sucks that you have been put into that situation. 

    Do you know for sure it was a specific person from this board or do you think that possibly your post came up in a google search performed by the hospital itself?

     

    I know that my company has areas of it that work on communications and find trends in the industry through searching the internet.   That is why I would never put where I work in a post.  It would come up in a google search of my company name.  

     

    I agree with this 100%. google your nestie name and see what pops up. I am sorry that this happened. People are just idiots....

  • not for nothing (omg, I don't think I've ever said that in my life) but I am seriously thinking about petitioning (I'm too tired to spell now) about making a private board (activeboard is what we use for the other board I'm on). 

    I mean, the new name I made after being locked out of my old one isn't a far fetched name from what people "IRL" know me as, plus it's not like my kid has a common name.

     

    I'm down for it.  I know when it was brought up before it upset some, but really.  Enough is enough and I think we'd have way more traffic.

  • Wow!! That really sucks. What the hell is wrong with people? It really makes me wonder how many people read these boards. It makes me think twice about posting. I am sorry this happened to you! People have way too much time on their hands.

  • Wow, I am just catching up on this...  It's crazy what some people will do.  What did this person think they would benefit from by telling that person what you posted, which is my opinion was no big deal.

    I'm very sorry you had to deal with that, and I hope your husband is ok as well.

  • Just checked back in here - I know it was a person and not a google search because of how it was told to him.  I don't know if I wish it was a search or not though - can't decide if that would be better or worse!!

    For real?!  I think worse because it would have to be someone that maybe knew more about the board, that's super shady!!
