Are you referring to me FUBAR
Wasn't having a go at anyone at all, just empathising. Main point being - if you can't take the flak (and I often can't) just bow out and lay low for a while. Loads of people just take the piss harmlessly but the user it's aimed at don't take it that way. PTCH and I had a royal cat-fight that lasted 2 months, the second of which was triggered essentially by his snickering at my dress sense. In real life this would be easily brushed aside but when you're in a period of emotional upheaval and are dealing with strangers whose tone is hard to gauge, things can hurt a lot more than was intended.
Not really reading this thread closely so wouldnt be surprised if you're talking to someone else entirely.
