Re: What the heck?

  • TomHope deleted her posts, and all the subsiquent posts that were attached to her post. Did you hit "reply" to the OP or a follow up?

    well, you must have "replied" to one of the children posts of her post - i.e. person 2 responds to person 1's post, person 3 responds to person 2's post, person 4 responds to person 3's post because those are the last posts on the page, then when person 1 DDs, they all go if she clicks "delete all children posts" even if person 4 just intended to responded to the OP not person 1. Does that makes sense?

    Her post was definitely deleted. I feel like reposting all the children posts, but not hers. lol

  • Ahhhh reading comprehension fail. I thought you were asking if I had quoted her.

    I didn't know that deleting children posts got rid of posts without quotations.

    Yup. Sucks because unrelated posts get deleted. I need to remember to always reply to the OP, and if I want to quote someone, just C&P it into a reply. But I dont really go to that length, because I dont bank on people DDing just because they got a negative response or something they didnt want to hear. my mistake. Confused

    it was within the introduction post tx started. She was saying that her h was a lifer because he went to the academy and I rightly pointed out to the general public that just becaus one goes to the academy doesn't mean they stay in for life or are immune from rifs. She got overly defensive (IMO) and was all snippy like "everyone I know from an academy was a lifer and my h could never be RIFed bc of his AFSC" I told her to not be defensive and that I was trying to share info with people that plenty of academy grads leave early but I also said an intro post wasn't the place for an argument about it. Then other people came in sharing my sentiments about that and walla, she DDed.

  • I'm both grumpy that she caused my "I went to the Academy of Hard Knocks and I'm not a lifer" comment to get deleted and that she came in favor of dog tag shaped cookies. 
    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.
