Dee, your mention of 'compassion fatigue' is the exact issue I think. Many long term sober members seem tired of being refreshingly positive when a member of say, four years posts a 'day 1' thread for the fiftieth time. The problem is they decide to post very self righteous comments, when really they should post nothing at all. I've seem some of these aggressive comments over the past few days and there really is no justification for them. If you are tired of seeing certain people posting their day 1 cycle and you have exhausted the amount of advice you can give them, say nothing.
