Sue, How can I stop a thread I started?

Sue, I started a thread that has turned mean, how can I stop it now?
Thanks Freemore

freemore, I have been in your position before and it sure is uncomfortable. DON"T READ YOUR THREAD ANYMORE. Tha's the best thing for you to do. It's like changing the station on the radio. Just don't look at it. Really....it works. Let them hash it out.

Midge, Thank you so much for your advice!! I was having so much fun posting on the discussion boards until this happened and I feel awful!
Thanks Freemore

lol...I know what ya mean, but you can't take things personally, and I know that's hard to do. I also have a thread that I wish I would have never started. I just wanted to have a t-shirt design done and it turned ugly before it got some what better. I quit even looking at it, and every now and again I couldn't help but take a peek. People have a way of twisting and turning your words when that not even what you were thinking, it can get to ya. My best advise is just let it play out on it's own, and they will move onto the next thing before long.

I asked for some advice on one of my kids once and it got ugly quick. I did have one poster pm me and we talked. It was nice. Someone actually listened to me and didn't call me names.

Freemore, I saw that thread and started to stick up for WC crowd. But then after reading them, I just didn't bother. If you read through them, you'll notice that a lot of the bickering that continues is between children. Yes, I do mean children literally. A lot of these posters are kids, teenagers i.e. children. So, just ignore it. They know not of which they speak.

BTW, we just returned from a trip & did not have any nasty comments, looks or anything. Just a great time.

Sorry I wasn't able to respond to you until now.
You can send a PM to the Community Board Mods, tell them that you are the OP and ask that they close it.
They may or may not.

The other posters on this thread gave you some good advice. I'm stopping reading it too because it does not really seem like there is discussion, just arguing.

Freemore~
I was going to ask the same question about shutting down that thread. It's a shame that it got so nasty.

Sorry I deleted the post above this, didn't know my DD was signed onto my computer!

 

[zdesiree]

I understand you so much too!! I started a thread asking for good vibes and it turned with bad vibes. I didn't ask for advice, only for good thoughts, apparently some people can't take a hold.

WOW 20 pages of self absorbed people blowing their horn in 12 hours! Theres always a WC/ECV thread about every 3 months on here and it always ends this way. Most of the later posters on there reminded me of the handful of people we had to endure the last couple of days we were in WDW in December. Rude self centered people who forgot to get a little pixie dust when they got there. At least we have each other here.

I really wish you hadn't gotten that thread closed. There towards the end it had gotten really educational and people were civil. Oh well.

 

[freemore]

Thanks everyone for your support, that helps a lot. I'm glad that the thread was closed. Thank you again.

I just wanted to say, I read through the thread (okay, fourteen pages) and think that you did us all a great service. Once more, we got out the message that there is no "front of the line" access with a WC or even a GAC, and most people who jumped on the "abuser" strawman were subsequently thwacked by the masses. I was proud of you, and of our community. Yay you, and yay US!
