I think a lot of people have gone out of their way to offer you decent advice on this topic and you are choosing to dwell on the few negative comments. I don't know what you expected when you start a thread off with a threat. Asking advice means you are willing to hear it all, whether you like it or not.

i sincerely thanked those people. Did you read that post? And there were more than a "few" negative responses. You have no right to tell me how im acting in this situation. This isnt a thread on which member of the band we most identify with. This is a thread literally about MY LIFE. To have others judge me, or to harass me, and belittle me, is an attack on me, and i sincerely believe that.

If you cant read through an honest post, and follow BASIC SOCIETAL DECENCY, i'd say you really need help, friend

so those that took the time to type out nice, thoughtful and caring posts, i honestly thank you and will look over the advice and weigh it. And see how it stacks up with what i feel is right.

to those who despite my warning, which was not hidden, it was the first couple sentences of the original post, it stuns me people would not only ignore my wishes to be polite and courteous, but also that you all could be so unbelievably cold and unfeeling while doing it. Ive never understood the way forums work, in terms of how despicable people can be, and how they feel like they can say anything, including things that are hurtful and mean, and can go about their lives. What do i know, im just someone who's always been empathtic and sensitive to others and my own feelings.

Yes, some things are a part of life, and are part of the human experience. That doesnt make them any less real or painful or earth shakingly upsetting. A teen going through the teen experience, is looking for a little more comfort than someone saying "grow up, we all went through it, you are a baby". My experiences are important, and i will not apologize for how i feel, nor my views on art, on work, on graveyard shifts, on any of it. The way i feel about them will not be shaken by the petulance and hardened and crusted over hearts that make up some posters on this thread.

Rest assured, everyone who has belittled my feelings and made a mockery of my wishes, which were, lets be honest people, not asking a hell of a lot, will be reported to the admins. that is a promise. So proceed at risk. You have now been warned twice. Just stop it.

If nothing else i deserve common courtesy. That involves heeding my instructions, and that involves not making jokes about me, not putting me down.

It saddens me that a board, for a band that stands for such powerful things, would draw such a disgusting crowd as this one, with few exceptions.

I dont know what Ed or the guys would do if they heard my story, or if i sent them the story in e-mail form and they read it. I assume though, going on what i know about the band and the guys, is that they would have been a class act like always. I'd be gobsmacked if Ed or Mike would tell me to Grow up, or that it was just a part of life and i was a baby.
