I’m done with all of this drama bullshit. It’s gotten way out of hand. This is a website for writing for fucks sake. I didn’t come here hoping to get tossed into a huge mess involving fake suicide and dramatic made up stories/lies. I came here to connect with fellow authors. Isn’t that what we all came here to do? Isn’t that what this website is for?
I refuse to let myself get involved in any of this anymore. I want to discuss writing and role play with some cool people. Thats it.
And I’ll be trying to get ahold of andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) to see if anything can be done about a blocking feature on this website, seeing as there are some obsessive and screwed up people here that I would like to avoid without having to delete this account.
I'm going to do the same thing, this is bullshit and I'm done WI th h it.
Ive all ready had someone pm me saying for me to stop being dramatic and that it wasnt that bad.
It sent me into a fucking panic attack.
….
Someone has to say it.
Thank you salty lasagna.
I'm getting quite tired of it as well. This is the place for writers and authors (which I guess are somewhat the same thing), not to pour out all sorts of drama about depression and anxiety.
Life gets hard sometimes, but there's no use to mope and whine about it all on this site's forums– that ain't gonna make things better.
I don’t think I did anything. I miss the way things used to be.
….And what do you mean by that? The way things used to be in that the forum is used for writers to communicate and converse?
I kinda want to go through and delete all the dramatic discussions, then for the discussions that have a bit of drama but aren't meant to be dramatic go to like THE DEEP DARK ABYSS of conversation starters to change the topic until all the drama disappears.
I really miss the way this site was.
I mean….
I think (no offense) there are enough threads that are basically I'm here for you and your depression and you can vent if you feel like.
I miss it too. I totally understand where @fruitbatsandearlgrey (I saw your thread and honestly I couldn’t agree more) is coming from. This site used to be amazing. I met a ton of people that I love and have connected with. But now there’s this new generation coming in and… fucking it up!
I will also be requesting a block feature, and I suggest others do as well.
I agree completely, Jensen

Thanks love ❤️
I would put a thumbs up but I'm on my laptop and don't know how to
That's true. This is
FOR WRITERS!!!!
Not
DEPRESSED PEOPLES
although some writers are depressed peoples, they can keep it off the forum.
Okay hold on now, I never said that. I’m not trying to stigmatize mental illness. I’m depressed myself and I think the general chat would be a good place for people to vent when they’re in a bad mood or get advice on how to cope with depression/anxiety if they don’t have a therapist and they’re generally struggling. There’s nothing wrong with that.
This place is not for people to fight and drag each other down and make up stories for attention. That’s what I’m trying to say here.

This is more along the lines of what I'm getting at.
This site saved my life. So yeah, it kind of is for stuff like that. Just not the drama and toxic people. Understand what people are going through before judging them. Don't attack people because of what they're feeling. You shouldn't be judged on this site, that's not why it was made. If you don't want to listen to people and help them, then stay out of it.
I'm going through all the dead discussions and finding some gems to comment on and bring back to the top so the dramatic things wind up at the bottom. Anyone wanna help me
I agree with Jensen and Kmart here
Just no more bullshit and drama
Like, Jesus Christ, how hard is it to be a decent human being?
Yeah, I don't like all of the drama that's going on, but at the same time people who are going through hard times sometimes need someplace to talk it out, and maybe they don't have a place other than here. I agree though that it could be handled and managed in more productive ways that don't cause infighting or anger.
