The tree fort is alive and well

***edited***

 

For crying out loud, this is freakin ridiculous and you know perfectly well that it's not acceptable to post personal information on this board. Shame on you. You should know better. I really don't have time or patience to be dealing with this crap right now.

As someone that was targeted by TBB, is friends with LM2Bs and is of a sensitive nature, I am simply dumbfounded why people care so much about some things said on the internet. Yeah, it wasn't nice. Yes, at the time it hurt my feelings. Sure, the person who said them should be ashamed of themselves. However, this happened 3-4 freakin years ago. How old are we? Get your big panties on and move the F foward! If it bothers you still, you know where the door is. Do yourself a favor and find some friends that are a better fit for you. :::Off my stump:::

  • Ok I'm a lowly lurker, occasional poster, but seriously...

    Horse.  Dead.

  • Seriously, I really don't think anyone cares anymore. Let.it.go!

  • There must be some people who left the tree fort?  Orangeshake must be a TF?  What about you?  There's been such a recent influx of thebigbad and I wonder why.

    I disagree.  

  • Dude, everyone knows there is a tree fort, it's been rehashed over and over again. Posting people's real names is pretty low blow, as is pretending to be someone's friend on FB so that you can use that info against them.

    You're right.  It was me.  I didn't have anything else going on at the time, and decided to take out what time I wasn't spending at the NICU with my children coming up with an AE, and then posting rude and inconsiderate things about (some) women I considered friends.  

    I'm not going to spend any of my very precious free time defending myself for something I've consistently gotten thrown under the bus for, but I do invite any of these random AE's who have "proof" (and waaaaaaaay too much time on their hands apparently) to just post it here.  I mean, if it's proof, then what's stopping you?!?

    I'm sick of being harassed over this sh!t.  And it's super duper that one of my FB "friends" just posted my last name over here.  Thanks for that.  What's that saying..."one bad apple spoils the bunch?"  <-- That's for any of my friends who are wondering why they were deleted on FB - no offense.

    Okay, I'll restate - I really don't think MOST of the posters on the board care anymore.  This is such a bunch of bullsh!t!!  This happened years ago & most of the people involved have moved on.

    I'm sorry lm2b that your full name has been posted on here & you are still being drug into this after all these years.  I think you could get this posted deleted since your full name is on here.  Jason&robin probably isn't around today to do it, but I bet you could email one of the Nest employees.  I think pixy is a mod on another board & could probably modify it too.

    Yeah this is totally uncalled for- don't use people's last names and really we.don't.care.anymore. 

    Grown women should not care so much about this drama.  If you do, you need to get a life.

    Wow "Amy", thanks sooooo much for deleting my last name on the OP.  Too stupid to remember that it still shows up in the quotes, eh?

    Ang, I think the saddest part is that I am just going to have to delete everyone on Facebook that I don't "know" (like IRL).  I don't need people like that seeing photos of my children and knowing what I'm up to.

     

  • Robin- full names still need to be edited out of some quoted posts.  We all know how sensitive I am about this issue too, but full names is not cool.  Just not safe in this day and age.
  • FFS. Really. 

    This whole thread makes me sad.  

  • I think I got them all. Sorry, I missed that at first.

  • JFC. Of course it is alive and well. All it is a place for a group of friends to chat. Even if the line-up has changed, I would expect it to be alive and well. 

    Posting the full names of anyone on here, past or present, will never, ever be ok.

    I don't know what the OP said, but reposting something from facebook here is pretty sh!tty, too.

    I'd hope by now all the lurkers, trolls, and AEs would realize that this never goes well. Most of the regulars have realized that the TBB sitch is what it is, and it was  LONG time ago. Rehashing it here over and over is not helpful.

    Yes, this is sad b/c I have now been de-friended on FB by LM2B whom I only met once or twice in person, but have enjoyed watching her boys grow and reading her hilarious comments on FB. Even sadder, it makes me want to go and de-friend a number of nesties that I've never met IRL or am not really "friends" with since we have a LO on the way and I don't want to even risk dealing with the ridiculousness that we've all witnessed here on the nest.

    This whole thing is just beyond ridiculous.   Grow up.  Move on.  Everyone else has.  No one cares anymore.  I just wish whoever it is that is still so stuck in 2008 can find some peace and happiness in her life.

    I missed this earlier but it IS sad.

    I didn't know LM2B well, and was not directly involved with TBB situation (and my memory totally sucks regarding it too) but she seems like a nice person.  Regardless of how people feel about ANY online drama, it's never OK to misuse personal information.  I know there are a lot of nesties I have never met, or see only at the CE, but I still like following their stories here & on FB.  I'd hate to see that go away.

    Ditto...I didn't see the OP, but this OP is so sad and beyond cruel.  Really?

    ...again someone coming on to tell us MJ died!  It's not a shocker and nobody cares anymore.  We remember some of the TFs and some of us are FB/IRL friends with them to keep up, but obviously we don't remember you all or even care about the ones we aren't friends with IRL or on FB.

    Are you united with the CCOKCs?

  • Thank you for removing my name Robin, I have no idea what was said originally, but Kerry alerted me that my full name was being posted over here, so I appreciate you taking care of that, especially since you have much better things to be doing at the moment.

    Man this whole thing really has grown legs and taken off, hasn't it? Well I'm going to put it to bed, once and for all. I created TBB AE. I was riled up about something that was posted (not even on this board) and wanted to comment on it without having a bunch of women (who have a reputation for being viscous) from a national board follow me back over here and harass me if they got pissed about what I had to say. I didn't realize at the time that there was a 3 day waiting period, which I have to admit was a really good idea, because by the time I got the AE, I was over whatever it was that I was so riled up about in the first place. Probably WHY they created a 3 day waiting period for a new profile. Anyway, I sat on it for a couple of months, actually forgot about it, and then one night I got upset about another post on here, started talking about it with some friends and decided to reply using the AE. It was directed at Robin, I was mean, it was uncalled for and I shouldn't have handled it the way I did, especially since I wasn't upset AT Robin, I was upset FOR Robin about the way her husband was treating her. Just badly handled all the way around on my part and for that I apologize to you Robin. I hope we can still be friends, because I do really like you and think you are an incredibly nice person. If not, I totally understand and I would deserve it. As for TBB, I am NOT responsible for posting everything that was said by TBB. I'm not the only person that had access to the AE, BUT I did create it, so I take full responsibility for the whole mess. If I'd never created it, then none of this would have happened. For that I do apologize, I'm sorry if your feelings got hurt, regardless of who said what as TBB. It was juvenile and cruel, and I truly am sorry.  There, the curtain has been pulled back, so I hope this can put a close to the whole thing, and everyone can move on now, and stop dragging it up, because I have a feeling that one of the current AE's involved in continually mentioning it as of late, was also someone that participated in TBB antics. So let's just all stop it right here, right now and let it go. If you want to believe that I'm a horrible person, you have every right to, I'm not a part of this board any longer, so you don't have to worry about me. I'm happy in my Tree Fort, and I will stay there, and not bother any of you ladies again.

  • Wow. That was SO not what I expected to see when I saw your name in this post, K8. 

    Anyway, well done. Thanks for saying that, etc etc. 

    Was the post directed towards Robin the only one you personally made?

  • I can't tell you how refreshing it is to see someone own up to it an apologize. Thank you. 
  • Thank you. I really appreciate it. Smile

  • Thank you for airing that out.  I seriously get being in present angst and saying/typing things you might regret later, or even with what might have been well-intended motivations which take an ugly turn due to their delivery. (Been there, done that.)  But it's major that you owned up and apologized.  That's what mature, sane and emotionally-healthy women are able to do.

    I wasn't even targeted by that whole debacle, but it's nice to see those who were get some closure.

  • Thank you so much for posting this K8.  How many people participated in the TBB AE?  We all know that I was targeted and I would like to know who acted as the AE in my case.  Since this has all come to light, and no longer under an AE, I asked the person who I believe knows who targeted me.  As of tonight she has not responded to my email.  If you don't want to post, I understand.  You know my email address.  I would really appreciate knowing who said what to me as TBB AE. 

    Thank you again.
