I haven't posted here as of late, but you are surely one of the most ungrateful and ornery people that I have ever encountered on this site.  I have the same issues that you do with getting my meds through ADAP but you don't see me here hissing at these very generous people, who only seek to help you.

If you have so much anger that you cannot even constrain yourself from such attacks, then you are right, this place is not for you.  The power of these forums is contained in the members, who up to now have done nothing but offer you support, but you are too angry to even want to see it, so why not come back when you can act like an adult.

And save me the profanity-laced tirade because I've been pos for 23 years and your bitches pale in comparison to those of thousands who came before you.  Your misery w


so how nice is this? I have a desparate problem, and I get A) the response above plus B) shut my thread down by a moderator

twofires,

Joe never said that.   He is simply trying to get you to realize that no one can help you until you calm down and allow us to.  That's all.

Well, it might be becauseof this:


"yeah, and here's a hearty FUCK YOU TOO"   (your post #23)


or it might be this:


"I need to VENT you dumbshits!!!!"  (your post #27)


or perhaps even this:


"damn you you motherfuckingpiece of shit

how dare you demand anything of me??

your fucking pushing over the edge with these stupid demands, don't you grasp that?"
 (your post #32)



If you look back through that thread, you will see that people were only trying to help you...but you were responding in an unnecessarily harsh way- with name calling and all that.  I am sure that is why the thread got locked...not from a desire to close you off from help.

If you check your PM box, you'll see I also wrote to you there to offer any assistance I might be able to provide.  No one is trying to prevent you from venting or getting help, but no one here deserves to get lashed out at like that.

NO: people were DEMANDING i say exactly what I wanted others to do, as if I were requesting rent assistance or some such.

I was hardly asking for help, I was hoping for a sympathetic ear]

yet all I got were DEMANDS that I succinctly describe extacly what it is that I am hoping others can do for me.

can you understand this is HARDLY my intent, at the same time I grasp there is precious little other can do to assuage my situation OTHER THAN just allowing me a sympatheic space???????


AND for this i get shut down, as well told to go fucking away????

god forbid any of YOU have a bad day and need some vent space.....

If you need a sympathetic ear, calling people the names you have above certainly won't lend you any help.  People here are always happy to listen, but not at the expense of being called a (excuse me) motherfuckingpiece of shit.

I'm quite sure that the moderators will get with you by the time you log on again. I'm not understanding all this meanness. Not trying to be funny but are you on medication. I'm no doc, but it sounds like you have missed taking  it or something. Or if it is something that is bothering you by all means vent but the name calling is not necessary. I don't think you will get any advice if all you want to do is insult someone.

You keep saying your thread was locked, where? And what's the beef with Joe? I don't see how you can really have any because he has not posted in quite awhile other than today. As for the moderators not answering quick enough for you, they do have lives outside this forum, be patient. Honestly due to your conduct here, I doubt you will like what they have to say.

Anyone got the link to the updated chat rules that Peter posted?

P.S. I did see the locked thread.

Not to make light of twofires' frustration, but THAT is freaking funny!

Unless it's negative feedback you want, “venting” and being malicious toward other people isn't the same. Blaming others for anything is just lame.

Twofires,

I've merged all of your threads from last night where you were asking what happened to me.

I discovered your "Jokes and Porn" thread when I was getting ready for bed - after 1am where I am - and shutting down my computer. I gave you a warning in that thread - not because of the use of the work "fuck" in general, but specifically because of when you said "damn you you motherfuckingpiece of shit". This is name-calling, among other things, and is not tolerated here. Say the eff word all you want in a rant, but do NOT aim it AT people here and do not abuse people here. If you don't like what they have to say, put them on ignore and/or report their post.

I stayed online for another hour and twenty minutes or so, when I dearly wanted to be in bed, asleep, but you had logged off and I thought you'd simply gone offline to cool down.

I locked the thread partly because of your abusive comments to others, but also to stop others from inflaming the situation further. It had nothing to do with Joe specifically - it was with EVERYONE in mind.

I'm giving you one last warning here. Venting is one thing, abusing others on these forums is something completely different. It is totally possible to get your point across without resorting to saying things like "damn you you motherfuckingpiece of shit".

Nobody wants you to leave the forum. This is one of the reasons why we are not giving you a Time Out at this point - we're giving you a second chance before taking that step. Everyone here knows what it's like to get the short end of the stick from ASOs and other institutions and we want to help you in any way we can to resolve these issues. We cannot help you if you bite our hands off.

I would also like to ask you to take a few minutes and read through the Posting Guidelines found in the main Welcome Thread, so you know what it means to be warned and what a Time Out is all about.
