Do you remember your first time?

[InletBchDweller]

i didn't either. I got red repped for it tho.
.

This is confusing. I dont get it at all..I have never red repped. To me it is a slap in the face with someone telling me to STFU...


.Dont worry bout it JR, I repped you green to counteract the red...

 

[Jdarg]

For the record and before the crazy PMing starts- I didn't give out the red rep. And anyone posting the kind of stuff like in this thread is the one screaming for attention. People like me who respond or give attention are just idiots I guess. Now excuse me while I have coffee with my engineer husband- he is home from "riding the rails" and I am no longer lonely. (SB's finest analysis of me, BTW !)

 

[John R]

there is absolutely no need to justify one's posts in a troll thread. the person who got red knows who gave it too them and why. i remember that classic interpretation from another troll trainwreck thread, since locked i believe, because it held no value, save comedic. somehow, i can foresee this one going 'up in smoke' also. priceless...

 

[Smiling JOe]

I can remember the first time I read about Jdarg being lonely and her engineering husband riding the lonely rails as he longed to be at home with her.

I need Skunky to say....ho-boy.

I remember the first time I took a creative writing class--as in fiction.

A very odd thread...

I am going to stick my neck waaaaaaaay out here.

SBanks has some topics that many of us don't want to discuss. Troll stuff or not, I personally feel that if he/she wants to start a thread then that is their thread to discuss with whomever they want. I dont want to talk about his/her subject so I refrain from commenting --it can be hard..

IBD, you make a good point.

I would just add that sometimes, when someone starts a thread with a deeply personal and intimate story, it can prompt others to do the same thing. The internet is full of examples of people who create fictional persona, write intimate and sad stories that are fiction, and then get some bizarre thrill from others posting real intimacies.

The title of this thread was titillating and misleading, and some people have expressed that for them the stories don't ring true. It's pretty clear to me, whether or not they are correct in their assumptions, they posted the "troll" remarks out of concern for others....hoping no one would reveal things that might seem embarrassing later.

It might be more productive to discuss why some of you believe so strongly that a poster is real and legitimate and a true member of the community rather than assume others are being horrible for the sake of hurting this poor adult that was once a terribly abused child.

Or perhaps we should just ask sandybanks about her motivation for posting this thread. Hoping to find other survivors of abuse? Reaching out to be comforted?

SB, if you've been wrongly accused of trolldom, the forum at isurvive.org might be a very good place for you to visit and share your story and begin to heal.

sigh - :roll: I DID NOT know this person was a troll. As a matter of fact, I STILL don't.

These are my last words on the subject. Publicly and privately.

Thanks,

I dont know if SB is a real person and that he/she is really the way in real life as he/she comes across on the board. I know that there are many double personalities on this board but they are to entertain and be funn. Maybe this persons funn side is just off quite a bit. OR maybe they just like stirring up trouble. With that being said, if they are to stir up trouble (like analyzing Jdargs family life{which is waaaaaaaaay off}) then I think that ignoring him/her will take care of it.

I dont think anyone is being horrible for calling her a troll, it is black and white.

I don't either. Just wanted to put some perspective on the whole thing.

I once gave advice (on insurance) on a board for brca+ people, and there was a person who pretty often obsessed about fears of what "she" would look like if "she" chose to have a mastectomy. Apparently, people would pm her with encouragement, and she would ask them for photos. This person always posted on pretty much the one subject, but was taken at face value...until someone found the fetish site with all those pictures that had been sent in confidence.

It's just good be careful about trusting people on the internet with intimacies.

If SB is real, and she very well may be, I worry about her, as well. This forum is probably not a "safe place" in the psychological sense of the word to post stories recounting abuse. Becoming a parent is often a trigger for abused people, and can bring about a great deal of pain. A forum like isurvive.org is designed to be a safe place.
