Apparently I have pushed a button

Okay, Well I recieved a message from "someone" that said I cannot name the group or people I am upset with SO!. I will try it this way. If you didnt read my previous journal ( which got deleted) I will give you a recap. There was a "post" about something that could be some what debatable BUT! Everyone in the post was being very civil with eachother and just giving opinions. Well "certain people" on this "group" deleted the post anyways. I then made a post about that post getting deleted and how it was frustrating. Then that post got deleted as well. So I made ANOTHER post about how MY post got deleted and that one was deleted as well. I then received a message from "certain people" of the "group" that said if I had questions about why posts were being deleted I should ask them. So I did and they couldnt give me an answer bc the particular "person" that messaged me was not responsible for deleting the post. Anyways my whole point is that I do not think its fair that we are being told what we can and cannot discuss as long as we arent being rude or using foul language.  No one could give me a straight answer and there were several other people that had experienced the same problem with the "group" As I said before I realize there are OTHER groups in which you can debate things BUT the "group" is/was one that I visited most often, and I knew quite a few of the moms and THOSE are the women I wanted to discuss the topic with! Anyways, apparently " certain people" cannot take serious discussions and then being questioned about why the post was deleted bc it now has gotten way out of hand! BUT! I still feel the same about the issue and I now have a little less respect for "certain people" and "certain websites"

Jan. 9, 2008 at 3:25 PM I have come to see that alot of moms on here are immature control freaks. I dont get why people cant write what they want in their own journals. That is supposed to be a place that is your own anyways.

Jan. 9, 2008 at 3:31 PM There are some women (using the term loosely) in some of the groups that are control freaks.  As long as you are agreeing with them they are quiet but have an opinion and they lose control, delete posts and threaten to kick you out.  I have had this happen to me so I just quit the group.  I love when they start to send you nasty comments to your inbox, I reported them and nothing was done.

Jan. 9, 2008 at 3:35 PM OMG I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.. I WAS IN A CERTAIN GROUP. THERE WAS A DEBATE ABOUT SOMETHING THAT REALLY HIT A NERVE WITH ALOT OF US. BASICALLY SAYING ANYONE WHO IS BIG AND PROUD IS DELUISONAL AND NEEDED HELP.  YES IT GOT HEATED BUT I FOR ONE NEVER CALLED ANY NAMES OR CURSED.. WELL THE POST WAS LOCKED (OF COURSE.). IM THINKING MY GOD CAN WE NOT ARGUE OR ARE SOME MOMS TOO SENSITIVE FOR IT. THEN MYSELF AND 3 OTHERS WERE BOOTED AND BLOCKED FROM REJOINING.. (LIKE I CARED BUT STILL). WELL A FRIEND FROM ONE OF THE GROUPS I OWN TOLD ME WHAT WAS BEING SAID. SHE (THE OWNER) POSTED SOMETHING USING OUR NAMES AND TALKING MUCH SHIT ABOUT US. . IN RETURN, I WAS TARGETED BY HER "HOODLUMS" AS WAS SOMEONE ELSE. I SWEAR SOME GROUP OWNERS SEEM TO BE ON A POWER TRIP!!!!!!  OH AND THEY NEVER HAVE ANSWERS AND IF YOU GET ONE ITS "BECAUSE I FREAKIN SAID SO"     SO I FEEL WHERE YOURE COMMIN FROM... IT SUCKS...
