Observation: I love FS and the folks that share their journals, but I have noticed a stray person or two who do not seem to know the difference between a journal entry and a discussion board. FS has a discussion board where you can post items that are up for debate and or extra support and information.
Journals - Journals are where we post our musings, our successes, our failures, where we reach out for support, where we vent our frustrations, where we celebrate and mourn what happens in our daily lives. Some of our entries are trite, some are comical, some are heartbreaking, some are victories. There is no right or wrong entries in a journal. It's our diary and we share our diary to receive support and to give support to others who may be experiencing similar situations. We don't need ridicule and judgement in our diary. I will repeat what my grandparents taught me long ago, "If you don't have something nice to say....keep your mouth shut!" Don't be baiting people in their journals. If you are looking for a fight, go to the discussion board. Many people on here are struggling with negative people in their lives, they should be able to post in their journals honestly and without fear.

Wow, Debra ... you just expressed what FatSecret is all about and, yes ... there are some on here that search forums and blogs for someplace to pollute the air with their poison. There are evil people in this world but the nice thing about FS is ... these few people will burn out and go to another site to heckle others if we just don't respond to them. Have a super duper day buddy! Hugs!

Oh shoot, maybe I just posted an inappropriate comment on another's journal. Wasn't diet related, though, just the way the conversations was leaning. Yikes!

@SeaRoyhill, no worries--Warren loves a lively conversation!

LOL SeaRoyHill, I did not speak of inappropriate comments, just negative, malicious and ridiculing comments and of course, baiting others in order to instigate a throwdown. When you are posting in good fun and the conversation is lively, it's not an issue, we all get snarky at times. There's just no need to be hurtful.

This is the world in which we live in and it's a mix bag of good and bad. I feel sorry for those who choose to stay in negative mode and spew and I choose to disengage with them.
