Friends,
I am sorry, but I feel that I am being used as a scapegoat and being accused and ridiculed and laughed at and taunted here, and thearfore I am leaving the forum.
I would be glad to carry on any discussions with you by email.
best wishes,
Lou

> I feel that I am being used as a scapegoat and being accused and ridiculed and laughed at and taunted here,
Lou,
I realize that you've said you're leaving the forum. Still, keeping in mind that the idea here is support and not posting anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down, would you please rephrase the above?If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
The section on using "I" statements to express your feelings likely would be helpful. You might also wish to consult a "civility buddy" for assistance.
Thanks,deputy gg

gardenergirl,
Thank you for pointing out that my statement in question was not a proper I- statement.
I apologise to any and all here for anything in the post in question and it was not my intention to use an improper I -statement.
To rephrase the statemnts, I could have said, according to the FAQ, that I feel YYY by reading the statements that wrote XXX.
But I think that it is moot to me now, for those feelings have passed.
So to rephrase the post;
Friends,
Thank you for all the contributions to the discussions here. I apologise for speaking rashly and do not feel that I am being used as a scapegoat or being accused or ridiculed or laughed at or taunted here. I am leaving the forum, but I would like to continue to have discussions by email, if you would like.
Best wishes,
Lou
