Just want to clarify, don't know if we all feel the same way...

SheriandMark · June 2010

but we all (well, most of us anyway), put some personal info on this board. While granted it's a "public forum", we don't expect anyone would come on here just to gather information and take it else where on The Nest. Seems as though this has happened, and it's my opinion that that is very uncool! I'm not looking to call any particular person(s) out, but I'm sure they know who they are.

I'm not looking to start any "drama" or "beef" with anyone, but we got a pretty tight knit group of gals here and we don't need "outsiders" coming here and acting all "hey what's up" then pulling a "peace out" with info.

I think most of us who do post certain things on here, would rather it stay on this board, if I am correct (unless I'm the only one who feels this way) not float around the internet.

Just sayin'.....

I'll own up to it. You obviously must be talking about me, as I did the poll and then posted it on my other "home" board - BNOTB. I was looking to see if this would be the board for me and it just so happened that the baby issue & anniveray boards was something that the BNOTB board discussed yesterday.

I've always wanted to venture out here to my anniversary board, but wasn't sure if it was the one for me. By asking that poll, I was better able to see if this was one I could partcipate in. I'm kind of neutral on a the baby thing and if this board was a "baby talk dominated" board, it would be very difficult for me to participate in, since I don't have children, nor can I have any.

I apologize if you ladies feel I betrayed you in any way or if I offended anyone in any way.

I am slightly clueless, but think I figured it out... ?...

Where'd it go? Texas?

I'm not even sure if its you...BUT the way to find out if a board is baby dominated is to lurk for a few days and see what we talk about. It is that easy. Fwiw, I don't think we are baby dominated b/c even those who have kids/are pregnant/or are ttc don't talk about it every post. Hope you find a place that fits for you.

I'm with you ladies, nothing more to add because you really spoke for all of us.

jweat013 · June 2010

And, from your posts on BNOTB, it looks like you were more using us for research than looking for a new place to hang out. Which is fine, but it would have been more polite to state your intentions more clearly. Regardless, it was up to each of us to answer or not, so we can't be too upset :P.

Actually, I wanted to come hang out over here. Several of the BNOTB girls hang out on their anniversary boards as well. They just warned that sometimes they get too baby-crazy. And since I have baby-making issues, I sometimes get a bit sensitive in that area.

I like some of the topics you ladies talk about and I'll continue posting here, since it is a public board, after all.

Just run to your bat cave. It's probably safer for you in there.

You have no idea what is there or what we are talking about in there. It's just a group of girls that are both FB friends and BNOTB friends. I'm sure you all are FB friends with each other on other social media sites.

I love how judgmental you ladies are. You are right, maybe this isn't the place for me. But again, it is a public forum, so I'm welcome at anytime.

...and that last bit is just me being a complete biitch. I really am not that way at all, but you all are brutal. It was truly something innocent and if you all don't believe it, then it is what it is. I have absoultely nothing to prove to you all.

I guess I'm confused on this. I'm the only one that publicly commented on that poll and I'm not bothered by it being cross posted to another board. It happens all the time on the nest/knot. Unless I missed a hey look at these hate mongers post I don't get why anyone is upset. But that's just me. It's a public forum, if I need to talk privately to one of you I have your emails and fb to do so. But like I said it's just my opinion.

To me, part of it is because TTC is and continues to be a sensitive issue for many people. And it seems as though she came under false pretenses. I think most of us would have been fine if she popped on the board said "Hey I remember you guys from when I got married, I am doing a poll for information for BNOTB and would love if you could participate."

This was not the purpose of the poll!!!! I didn't do it for BNOTB. See above page for me. You can see how it originated, it's explained there.

And, i can truly sympathsize with TTC issues - 7 years together and no baby. So it wasn't to make a mockery or to try and be a spy and gather info.
