Is it taking place would you say?

Will be interesting to see how this thread develops.

Over and out.

I wouldn't describe what takes place as bullying. However, I can't be doing with it either.

Hi Lynne - you posted a lovely comment on the thread about our dog being knocked down and killed the other day and we (my husband and I) commented on how nice it was to hear from you again! I dont think what goes on on this site is bullying - its just people feeling brave enough to comment under the guise of anonymity. Thats more about integrity I think. Personally I really don't understand why people get so worked up about certain contributors - just ignore them! Welcome back Lynne!

Not bullying, exchange of opinions with some personalities being more forceful/direct/blunt than others.

No different and a lot milder than other forums I have previously been to.

exactly no bullying Lyn, but i dont like the inference to it, not from you by the way, bullying is the worst form of abuse, so lets all be together, life is too short.....

I agree with Duckileaks.

Rainbow1 has a style of writing that takes a while to get used to. Once you do, it is straightforward to understand. I don't think that she is particularly abusive by the standards of this forum over the years. She is certainly direct and I can understand people taking offence.

Got no problem with rainbow , as DP says once you get used to it , its fairly easy to understand. As for bullying, how is that possible on a computer, when people dont tend to know who you are.
