I'd like to explain why I won't be posting on this side anymore.
I've spent WAY too many hours thinking about the last 24hrs' messages and even cried about it all. If people are going to start pretending to be new so as to send spiteful, anonymous messages then this isn't a place I want to be. Things have obviously changed and it's time for me to move on.
I have loved being member of this board for the past 18m and would like to thank everyone on this side for their support during my 5 tmts and the HUGE amount of lovely feedback with my recent +ve result. It meant more than I can say.
I will post any news on the Pg side and hope to see many of you there soon.
Thank you all, bar one.

I am so sorry to hear that you are having problems here. I am only on occasionally, so I don't really know what is going on, but what I do know is that (from what I can tell) you have always been very pleasant and supportive in all that you have done on this board. I can't imagine why anyone would want to be spiteful towards you, or any one else here, for that matter! I just don't get it. Mean people suck ! I just want you to know that I am so excited for you on your BFP, and I wish you well in the next 9 months and beyond! Enjoy it, and don't let mean, ignorant, spiteful, rude, etc., people get you down! This is your time...don't let anyone spoil it!

Debra, I am sorry to hear about this, what's happening?
I cant believe people would do this. This site has been a life line for me, and helped me to get where I am today.
You have been great in helping me with advice too, Ive said this before that you are great and much appriciated in my eyes.
I too, hope to see you on the other side some time. I wish u all the best with your pregnancy!
I'll miss you too!
TTC 6yrs......Have jumped off the rollercoaster for now, too many BFN's and too much heartache, to keep going....Moving on to fulfil other dreams!!!

Like Steph, I don't get much chance to come on the board, so I don't know what's been going on.
I will echo what she has said, in that you have been the back bone of this board. You have advised and supported us all through the hardest of times. I for one, will miss you. Congrats on you pregnancy. Enjoy it. It's been a long time coming and I hope to be joining you on the other board very soon.
Debra - i feel truly sad reading your message. i just dont understand how this could happen.......you are right, things are changing. in any group i suppose the dynamics change as people grow more confident or feel they need time out and to be quiet. i suppose my disappointment would be that the price for all of this is that we lose someone like you whom i have found so incredibly supportive and generous.
i dont fully understand the gist of what you are suggesting in your message. perhaps i am just a little naive about the ways of the world...perhaps i just dont want to accept that this is happening.
i do feel a senseof unease at the moment around posting here and hope that now that this rupture has occurred things might settle back down. i have certainly found this a place where i can get invaluable info and support as this whole process can be a lonely one.
anyway, just felt compelled to offer you my support and express my anger and sadness that you have had to feel like this. i really will follow your progress and will jump with joy when i see the news of your scan.
p.s do you believe in karma??

I don't know who you are talking about, but all I can say is I really wish you would change your mind. You are a vital part of this site. The information, help, guidance and support you have given me and many others has been so precious.
If somebody has done what you think then Marcus should be informed - that is no way to behave. I doubt I am alone in saying that you are too important to lose.
Having said that it is your decision and you must put yourself and the little people first. That is what matters now.

Debra P
I want to echo what Little P said. You have always been the one offering good advice and I am really sorry you feel the way you do. Sorry if you feel let down. Please continue to post on this side. I wish you all the luck in the world with your pregnancy.
Am sorry to hear that someone has been (I presume) sending you nasty PMs. I'm not much of a poster, lurking just for the information and tips I can glean. I for one have much appreciated all the advice you have imparted and have been very grateful for your wiseness.
Will hope one day to join you on the pregant board, until then enjoy your pregnancy and I look forward to reading how it all progesses.
When I read your message earlier on I think I didn't want to believe it. But ever since it has been at the back of my mind and i guess the question is how did it all come to this?
Don't we have enough of this outside in our daily lives?
Isn't this supposed to be a place where we feel protected against people who do not understand what we have been through or what we are going through?
Isn't this supposed to be a place where we find support and understanding?
So how do we end up discussing what to post and saying goodbye to friends?
And Debra, did we all misbehaved so badly that you have to say goodbye to us all? I understand you're upset but is everyone going to be deprived from your words of advice and your knowledge around here? Are you saying we are all so different there's no way we can co-exist with our differences?
I now feel something has been lost from this place and i'm not sure it will ever be regained. A bit like minnow said. And I feel very sorry for that.
wow alot has happenend while i was..
i have been in the big city with my husband...
just got home to check in and to see how everyone was ..
and wow..
it sure looks like alot has happenend..
i cant see how anyone could or would do such a thing..
in all my time of being here i have never herd such a thing..
it is said that you would feel that way..
i had thought that you and a couple others had been having a hard time with the so called fun posting
that is why i asked.. it wasnt to cause any of this or to have someone do what you are saying they did..
this forum is to help us learn and to accept and to help one another..
i am very shocked about all of this..
it is sad that this has all been caused by trying to lighten myself and others up..
i am truly sorry for the heartache that i have caused..
becky
I hope you dont leave us, you have been so much help to so many people and it would awful if you felt you had to leave. Don't let whoever is the phantom PM get away with it, leave them to get on with the childish behaviour by themselves.
You can see by the response here that you have tons of support

Just want to add my support to everyone elses. A bit shell-shocked, can't believe that there are people out there evil enough to sabotage this life-line. Hope you re-consider as you have made a lot of friends on this website and your contributions are invaluable.
You must do though what is best for you and your growing baby(ies), you don't need additional stress at this time.
Enjoy your pregnancy and know that we are all thinking of you.
