The definition of bullying is when an individual or a group of people with more power, repeatedly and intentionally cause hurt or harm to another person or group of people who feel helpless to respond.

If you can’t deal with sensitive issues do not read or reply to the thread and let those who have no fear of intimate discussion remain that way.

It appears bullying doesn’t stop at the school gates!

Chewbacca, that’s just Mean!

Thank you Beau. In my ignorance, having never joined chat groups before, I thought people here were all genuine posters and even the most intimate of subjects could be discussed with sincerity, especially concerning the menopause. I now realise people could be open to exploitation when disingenuous people infiltrate threads,or start what could be considered dubious threads,whether intentional or not. Again, food for thought indeed.

I'm less concerned about some of the new posters who are starting threads, than the comments posted on some existing threads by people who seem to have either an attitude problem, or some sort of agenda.

Or should that be "AGENDER" ?

Everyone boames school holidays, but i reckon these are adult numpties.

Sad.

They should be pitied really, and I would. Except I would risk a ban for troll hunting.

That's right beau, spot on. There has been a sharp influx of new members who have a keen interest in pubic hair; breast muscles (and the lack of) and their sex lives (and anyone else's). Bleurgh....

Vickiexx, some posts are deemed to be 'not genuine' and at the moment there are a couple of strange subjects under discussion. One is not allowed to suggest they are not genuine otherwise your post gets deleted for 'troll hunting' which is against the forum rules. I find it easier to assume that all posters are genuine, however odd the subject matter.

100% agree oldbatty, enough is enough.

Vickixx Sat 29-Dec-18 19:01:54

Oldbatty, would you mind explaining? I’m fairly new and I’m not even sure what this is relating to or am I being naive about forums like this having never been on one before. What am I missing here?

Please HQ, step away from the Pinot and crisps and do your job?
