Thanks everybody I think we can put this thread to bed and get back to learning and helping others. Think again This is the kind of post that garners negative karma. You can not tell people when the conversation is over. This is a discussion forum and conversation flows as it will. We are not locked into the idea of threads staying strictly on topic. It is not a good idea or polite to completely change the subject in midstream, but this is a discussion and it takes its own course. Hmm sorry that everybody... I did not mean to tell people what to do or to end a thread rather I just did not want everybody to think I was being an attention whore, was being needy or had a "personality disorder" and was trying to center of attention. That's not me unless I am in real need. I think there is a high chance of misunderstanding When communicating through script. So please forgiven me for not being clearer. please feel free to carry just know that I am now confident that I can reassume on the board and not fear being ignored in a time of need because of a preconceived belief about me. For all this including all the replies on this thread I am very appreciative.

I have always been taught that when you are going to be asking for people's help it's best not to piss them off

Goodkel - I really appreciate your answer to my question. Thank you. This might be silly to others, but you know what I do like? It makes me smile when I log in and it says I'm awesome. LOL On my worst post op days when I drug my sorry, battered self over here to read, that made my day. I love that, too, and I think it is something that everyone should hear daily. It has been integrated as part of our theme so it will be up from the start. I made sure of that.

Unfortunately you are posting on the heels of another member who had an obsession about how people viewed him, how he fit in, and why his threads weren't answered immediately. You are obviously not him, but we are all still twitching a bit from that experience. But, don't worry about this. We aren't going to ignore you. Things will be just fine. I see that others have added to your karma overnight, too.

FWIW, I have lost about 6 karma points in the past week, and I can't for the life of me figure out what the hell I did to piss people off. Somebody really, REALLY doesn't like fishcakes?

I have been around since June and only have 11 Karma points. Obviously, people are not thrilled with me, OK. I try to be kind and considerate, in the end I am just me. Can't be the bell of this ball either.

LOL Maggs.......one of the other members on the board (not going to say who) PM'd me the other day and asked why my Karma was -2. I laughed and said, honestly I hadn't even noticed. The person told me they had exalted me......I was joking with another poster about it and over the next three days it was funny because these two posters were bumping up my karma and just as quickly somebody else was knocking it down. Hilarious. Not sure who I pissed off, but I found it quite hilarious that somebody would take the effort to smite me. LOL

Swag, There was also a perception among some that you might be another member, posting under a new name. IMHO if you had some unexplained smiting, it would be because of that.
I realize you're not that person and think Kelly clarified it in a different post.
Don't take it personally.

So YOU are the evil person who posted about fishcakes!!! (kidding) Someone must have been jealous of your wit and beauty.

Can't be the bell of this ball either. Many of us, myself included, are thrilled to have you here. Consider Karma like a stalled scale during rapid weight loss. The number means nothing to how you appear.

It wasn't a woe is me statement. It was just a statement. We can't please everyone, all the time. I didn't take that as a "woe is me statement." I was just applying perspective to it. There are people here who might feel the same as you but are not yet brave enough to voice it. Sometimes I speak to the wider audience.
