I'll get off my keyboard. Have a great day.
I'm sorry you feel this way Shredder. I was honestly trying to help, I've never bullied another member in all my years here & I'm not starting now. (and for the record - only you can get yourself kicked out of SR)
The advice to back away from the keyboard is given time & time again by our Mods when ANY member is feeling emotional. It's likely something your therapist would also agree with - I wasn't lashing out at you, I was trying to help you get some distance from something you perceived to be hurting you. That's it. I'm sorry you weren't receiving it that way.
I bumped an old thread that you might find helpful because it talks about all the differing expectations people have had about the support we give/receive on this forum. If not, no biggie.
