Oh yeah . . .

The intimidation was truly disappointing. No one here deserved to be talked down to that way. I received training as listener for a crisis helpline while on this board during the beginning of the year. The more training I got, the more I understood how unfortunate some of the choices former moderator made. I'm thrilled Lisa took this board back! It is what it should have been and should continue to be :) Just a warm, safe place where we are all free to express our feelings and have our emotions validated and normalized. I'm leaving it to a licensed psychiatrist to talk with me about about meds and if I have PTSD. And if I had a thought, I'd like for it to be allowed consideration and not simply labeled wrong. Oh and being yelled at in caps, not cool dude . . . whew . . . sorry had to get it out . . .

You will find that many of

You will find that many of us disagreed and was intimated by the Ex ruler. I lived without a voice with the N. He ridiculed and demeaned me throughout our relationship. I was a meek little sheep by the time he was done with me. Then i find you women that know what i have been through. Your expirences, strengths and hope for a better future kept me going. I cant survive without you guys. But once i saw the bully act come out from a select few that are no longer here, i wanted no part of this. Why subject myself or watch others victimzed yet again by someone that obviously is on a control mission to be top dog. I am happy we have our group. We are here for each other and we all have a voice that is loud and strong. We have the right to be heard without ridicule. only one way to go...Forward

agreed...

I too left the forum because of the rancor, only to find the absence of the moderator upon return... I always felt that the advice, the tone, administered by the moderator was, to say the least, borne from personal bias and personal motives.

Yup

I've been reading this Forum for quite some time, but wouldn't comment or participate under the previous circumstances. It was way too toxic in my opinion.

It did get toxic here

I had to email the former ringleader privately just to keep being banned from here. In front of everyone, she reprimanded me with "this is your third warning. Then you will be banned." If I had come here right after being D&D'd, I would've found that incredibly traumatizing. My ex-Psychopath professor engaged in public humiliation. It was his favorite tactic. He did it to me.. and the OW... simultaneously. For awhile, I was reading instead of posting because it got ugly and intimidating. I didn't want to be part of the toxicity.

Didn't want to be part of the fights

I felt tempted to step in... but I was one of the bystanders. I didn't want to interfere, or be part of the negativity. The negativity was a GOOD reason to stay away (in terms of posting) Why contribute to the infighting? What would I have gained from that? I'd rather be on Yelp, arguing over Wonder Woman vs. She-Ra, or Prince vs. Michael Jackson, than be part of something that is NOT helpful. The bullying and fighting here was not only unnecessary, but damaging. I was D&D'd a decade ago... and it's only recently I've come to terms with it. My emotional abuser was in a position of trust... a professor (I was a student) When a therapist/counselor gets abusive, it's a massive breach of trust. If I had come here right after the D&D, I think I would've been traumatized. The fact that there had been time and some healing was the reason why I didn't get into the fights. Fighting does NOT belong here. My ex-Psychopath professor knew how to stir up unnecessary drama (like the fact I DARED to compliment him behind his back)... and stirring up drama here... NONE of us need it.
