    I think you PS regulars are missing the point.  You have a problem on your board causing the drama and she seems to be who you favor the most.  I'm out of here, do with it what you will, but I was tired of seeing Amethyst post with her passive aggressive bs time and time again and nobody have the balls to tell her to get over herself.  

    So I came, I saw, I conquered.  She came, read and bowed out without even acknowledging me, even though she feels it's ok to call everyone else and their momma out about things.  

    If you guys are happy with someone like that who will probably do the same thing to you one day.  Awesome.  

    peace out.  Enjoy your drama free drama board.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: **DJ** : I have to say I have been silently reading this post and a few others. and i am sorry. someone posted that no one here "knew" each other and that was the problem. A lot of these girls on this board and girls that came from other boards a month or so ago when PS was established. who were regular posters elsewhere but finally felt like they had a place to go with issues on things that other posters could relate to. We were in the PROCESS of getting to know one another- and sh!t kind of hit the fan. I hate that there is such drama. I was so excited to find a place where I could discuss issues that size 4 brides didn't have that I had: Finding a dress, hiding my stretch marks, buying lingerie in my size, dealing with critical relatives or people asking "how much weight do you intend to lose before the wedding" i was really struggling with being plus size. As my entire life I was a size 8 up until two years ago, when a myriad of things happened and I gained a lot of weight. I have to say the girls on this board offered unending support and actually reading their posts GAVE ME the courage to actually go dress shopping and feel like a "bride" I hate to say it and be cliche- but it seems like at this time of year,more so than ever, maybe we should just put the BS aside. and lets the PS girls have their board- and welcome who they want to put welcome posts to. It doesn't mean they are an "ambassador", let us put up posts that say "happy Thursday" because we want to- without having to wait for our moderator, let us "get to know" one another- since someone pointed out the reason we are failing and having trolls is because we haven't done that. And I have to say I won't harp on this. But I disagree. If this board was "girls with moles on their faces' we would have trolls. The simple name of it being plus size- leads to people THINKING there is something wrong with us do to our physical appearance- which has been proven in posts that have occured on this board. I really wish we could stop all the mod- non- mod nonesense. First of all, I'd like to stand up for Amethyst. On DAY ONE of the plus size board we were talking about mods. And don't quote me on this, but she totally said something like "that;s a job I'd never want" Don't confuse people being friendly and nice with being an "ambassador" I mean really girls. Can we get back to reality? This is an ONLINE- message forum. This isn't our jobs, or our families or anything beyond that. It is AWESOME to make friends and have GTG's and form friendships from a forum-= but at the end of the day- those friendships are treasured entities that are separate from the online world- they are PERSONAL relationships.  Let's just all get back to posting about our annoying FMIL, our garter belts, and our chivari chairs-- shall we?

    Okay, I have stayed out of all the drama, because honestly, I think it's silly.  But I just want to say one thing (that I will probably get flamed for, but whatever)....

    How does ANY of this make sense?  From what I'm reading, people are being bullys to people because they are being bullys.  So basically, everyone is being a bully.  There's no point.  This board was made for entertainment, and that's all.  There should be a "I like drama for entertainment purposes" board, and then all this bullshit would make sense.  This board was made for brides who are looking for others who understand them, and are in the same type of situation. THATS ALL.  The rest of this is pointless.  If you have a problem with someone, and you publically call them out on it, you are asking for drama, therefore you are part of the problem.  You don't know these people, you most likely will never meet them IRL, so IGNORE IT.  If you don't like what someone is saying, then there's a little red box with an x in the corner of your scree - push that and move on. 

    All this drama is absolutely pointless and if everyone just either dealt with thier problems in PMs, or just ignored it, this board could be a happy place.  There are a ton of other threads of girls who are looking for help, or want to share their happiness - those are the ones that everyone should be paying attention to, not the stupid, pointless drama.  You shouldn't let what someone - on a message board!- says to you bother you so much that you spend your whole day arguing about it. 

    Like I said, I may get flamed for it, but I just don't understand.
    Anniversary

    If you didn't enjoy the drama, you wouldn't have looked.

    <div>I am here because I am tired of seeing it and i wish you girls would honsetly, let the board go back to where it was a month ago.</div><div>I know that I am getting flamed for writing posts- but i am not trying to enjoy the drama- i am just saying. I want things to be like they were.</div><div>
    </div><div>To be honest, i am trying to write these posts because I am actually upset about this whole situation and for someone on here that keeps getting flamed that actually has given me good advice and a luagh in the past.</div><div>
    </div><div>I don't udnerstand why you have to be so mean about it.</div><div>I wish that i could. But honestly, I have been on other boards posting and you have totally posted mean responses to my psts on there too - I remember your photo. So I don't think it matters what board it is, or who it is,</div><div>
    </div><div>but i for 1. and i know there are others would just like to go back to posting as we had without have threads with 98786 responses clogging up the board.</div><div>

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: **DJ** : Wow that was a really bitchy thing to say.  Kick rocks.  It's obvious you are missing the point.  You're too busy thinking people are judging you for being overweight when the entire time you're judging someone for not being overweight.  You suck.

    ummm no.. my point is, that you dont ever post unless there is drama. As a size 4, she was able to put a dress on and they clipped it.  Some people on this board aren't even able to put a dress on in some stores.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: **DJ** : really??? they didn't have dresses in your size to try?? that is odd...

    I didn't have a dress in my size to try on! Woot! I win! Oh, plus I have stretch marks, a gut and I'm tall. I was a 16 on my wedding day (I'm a 12/14 now, do I still get to play?). I think saying that your trials and tribulations of finding a wedding dress or hearing about losing weight before the wedding are harder b/c you're plus sized is rude to others who probably also had the same issue.<div>
    </div><div>I have a friend who just got married who is 5'2, 110 and has ENORMOUS boobs. She got the "How much weight are you losing before the wedding?!" questions too. AND she didn't have any dresses in her size. Her waist is a 2, her boobs required a 14. ALTERATIONS!</div><div>
    </div><div>Saying your life is harder b/c you're plus sized is kinda rude to others. And this is coming from a (FORMER! WOOT!) plus sized girl.</div>

    O rly?

    Well, this may be the first time ever (with the exception of a few crazies) that I've ever been called 'mean' on here... hopefully others can chime in here too.

    But let's see it.. where was I mean to you?

    ETA: Dang it - misquoted... but I still want proof of when I was mean to you.
