Should I stay or go ? | GaGaJoyJoy

This is my first proper flounce.

There is a contingent on here who I feel have gone out their way in a concerted effort to make me feel as unwelcome here as possible, an old C4 clique (though naturally they wouldn't admit to that).

I know who the core are but not sure how representative they are of the overall forum.

There are FMs on here I am fond of , FMs who I have enjoyed reading their posts but not yet posted with much, if at all. Perhaps reading my posts which might seem to some to be a bit let's say impolite have coloured other FMs opinion but when getting mobbed it can be tough to keep the cool

Anyway.. I'm basically not sure if it is worth my while staying on here as recently it has just become a bit of a hassle tbh.

And bearing in mind if I stay, I don't think I can quietly put up with the BS from those intent on making my stay uncomfortable.

I have tried ignoring the responsible FMs and to avoid subjects that are controversial but in truth that's not me, If I can't post my opinions, even if they might be at times, out of step with majority opinion, then I see no point in my being here at all.

I put it to you fellow FMs...

Oh I've just remembered I've double deckers in the fridge.Joy.

It's your life, it's your choice.

LeccyMember

I voted no and mediocre.

I also think you're being paranoid and overly dramatic. Stay, have fun, relax, debate, but don't take it so seriously

TinaMember

you should stay

B/ Needs work.

Maybe you could take it into the Troll Tank and have it out. Dont let it fester.

MoonbeamsMember

Now if only i could remember where the fridge is.

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen? I think you should have an ovaltine, calm down, have a nap and come back tomorrow.

I have no opinion on the matter, which is common enough, but well, staying or going is your choice, although asking is an interesting way to flounce, I prefer the much more subtle:-

I hate you all, now go boil your heads, and shove em up your arse technique.

Yogi19Member 10 years

I think you should stay.

The Singing Ringing TreeMember

You can name names you know .... No bopping for lists here ... go on you know you want to

serignhugrfMember

Maaaaaaaaaan, I've missed stuff again, haven't I?

Hotpants HelenMember

No one can make that decision for you.

DirtyprettygirlthingMember

Stay... don't go. Where is there to go to?

You should stay.

You don't really want to flounce else you wouldn't be asking what we think

fabienneMember

Definitely stay.

That's an order.

serignhugrfMember

This is the first flounce I've seen here. It would mean more if I knew what it was about. I'd like lists and links to relevant threads please

Penelope PitstopMember

bad attempt at a flounce.. never ask the other members if you should go, if you're gonna go then go! (you can always come back a few hours later or even a few minutes)

Ah don't go, just don't take it too seriously or just post what you want to say and sod it.

A proper flounce probably should have a list but I'm not one for doing that. do I lose your vote on my flouncing technique for that ?

MoFoMember

I voted go. Was that wrong?

I just think if someone is so affected by a forum that they feel likie leaving then they should.

At least til they get a little perspective.

So yeah, go.

The SecretaryMember

This is a brilliant flounce.

A new dimention...

THE SEMI-FLOUNCE

A chance to stay and respond to the fawning.

Genius.

Wish I'd thought of it

Raggy♥DollMember

I don't know who you are...But stay. Or go, whatever. I dunno!

jononoMember

has the decision been made yet?

Yes, change my answer to what MoFo said

BazMember VIP10 years

Don't go.... but I've seen better flounces

SharMember

I voted 'no' CO ... please don't let yourself be driven from here ... You put your arguments across and reply to people respectfully whether you agree with them or not ... If they can't extend the same courtesy to you, then that's their problem, not yours ....

Oh and I voted 'yes' for the second part ...

Comrade OgilvyMember

Never knew you weren't suppossed to stay during a flounce.

What to do ?

I have enjoyed it on here at times but today especially has been very draining, I'm not really into the aggro that I suppose is part of forum life.

Maybe forums just aren't my thing.

jononoMember

it's a 'first attempt' at a flounce therefore the OP has no intention of going.

CO ... Try not to take it all so seriously ... look at all the replies you've got to your flounce thread ... don't that tell you something about the mind-set of this forum ...?

Nothing wrong about it.

You make a fair enough point.

LaceyMember

If it gets too much I often take a break.

When we feel passionate about something and others disagree immensely in mass, it's not always about "cliques".

It's about many people feeling the same as one another and just as passionate about their opposing opinion.

I think people often need to learn the art of debate and accept thats what it is and move on when said debate is finished.

and if someone is rude just tell them to politely **** off.

Take a couple of days off, you might regain your vigour and appetite for it again.

Don't let one bad day spoil the experience for you. You've said you've enjoyed it at times, if you find yourself drained then just click off and try not to stew over it. Tomorrow is another day and it might be entirely different.

BaroloMember

I voted 'no opinion' for the first option and 'mediocre' for the founce question.

I've never been asked to judge a 'flounce' before so am a bit unsure as to the required criteria to constitute a decent flounce; because of that lack of nowledge on my part, I chose the safe, middle-ground option!

Ultimately, the choice is yours!

strikeMember 10 years

don't let shar force you off the forum.
