    Kinda. I'm tired of being called a troll. Once was fine, I get that it was odd, so I added a siggy and posted an intro thread, and to see it in the first thread of the new FFF, it just kinda sucks. <div>
    </div><div>I know this is the "interwebz", but I still like you so it sucks that it's not returned, I guess. Not a big deal, I'm NOT GBCK, I'm just taking a break.</div>

    If multiple people on one board constantly called you off, and said you gave them the heebie jeebies, and called you trollish, would you *really* want to stick around? Whats odd about this?
  • I didn't call you a troll. I guess it could be implied from my flame that I think you're a troll. That's not exactly what I meant. Your previous relationship with the board just makes me kind of wary of you.

  • FFS, if this isn't a GBCK then I don't know what is.  

    Do yourself a favor if you do come back, and make a new SN.  Because you're definitely not going to be well received back after this.  

    FTR, we've all gotten flames at times, or most of us at least.  We've all had to work our way into being known around here.  GBCK'ing isn't the way to go about it.

  • Personally, I don't have a problem with you, but you definitely need to work on a thicker skin if you're going to post on the internet.  Running away when people call you out isn't going to make it any easier to "fit in" when you come back, kwim?  The best thing you can do it just keep posting, be yourself and eventually people will forget they thought you were a troll.

  • Erm... maybe it's just me, but if you feel that way about being called a troll and such, why would taking a break help? Why would you not GBCK? Clearly taking a break the first time around didn't help.... If it were me, and I really wanted to be active on these boards, I'd just accept the flames and stick it out. 
  • Meh, I don't really care that much that I should have to *work* to fit in. It's not thin skin, you can call me what you want and I'm not going to cry about it, but I'm also not going to stick around a place that everyone is weirded out by me. 
    (and LC, last weeks FFF was chock full of people calling me a troll, not specifically you :) )

    Accept the flames, Ghoti.  A thicker skin is never a bad thing, especially in the professional world!

    ETA:  Aaaaaaaaaaaand you posted while I was posting.

    Not sure whether this makes a difference, but the person who brought up the troll thing this week wasn't around last week to see your intro. I think most of the ladies here are actually pretty convinced by now.

    Why would you come back then? AW.
  • I have been flamed many times - I still have the burn marks.  I am still here.

    There are times when I take a break from Knotting because I am busy with life and all that, but I do not announce it.  That seems a bit odd to do so, IMHO.

  • Meh.  I get it.  I had to take a break too because I'd been banned so many times, and people had such an attitude about me.  Whatever. :)

    But, I do agree about making a new name.  It helps a lot. haha
  • Gah, just gooooooooooooo already.

  • I feel like you didn't really think this through.

    If you really aren't GBCK-ing, and you really do plan to come back, you probably shouldn't have drawn a big target on your back. The whole things comes across as a bit of a cry for attention.

    I'm certain loads of people sign up, post a few times and never return. Something about you needed us to know.

    Words out of my mouth.

    This is dumb.  If you don't like it here because people are "mean" to you, go somewhere else.   People have long or very short knot memories.  Taking a break and coming back may or may not make it better.  But THIS does not help you.

  • I don't think you're a troll.  I'm sorry that you're feeling like we've run you off, and I hope you know that you can always come back if you want, new name or not.  :\

  • From experience, it IS easier just to take a break quietly rather than announce it. But, good luck with everything.
