I have had enough, this week. I have enough going in in my perosnal life with my cat and my family, plus trying to make a living.
I am trying to do something to stabilise the website after a massive fight with the old host to get stuff sorted out, having lost a week's worth of email.

It suddenly seems to be totally not worth it. Like "why did I ever bother?" I seem to get ridiculed at every step of the way, or end up the target of jokes, then criticised when I fail to find them funny.

I won't turn it off. But right now it would be SO easy to do. There is a line, here. And so many people are crossing it right now. And I am the one who is paying for it as a hobby, remember?

And just to be clear, ANYONE who pisses me off right now, closest friend or mere acquaintance, is likely to have either or both of a seriously scathing set of remarks directed at them and their post trashed.

In case you all have not noticed, I have had enough of childish arguments. They will just go. Maybe every other post, just to make them ridiculous.

Or I could just name those who are going too far. NOT in a post, but in the header.

Maybe with a rating system for "assholeness"

Does anyone not yet believe that I have had enough?

I'm sorry if I said or did anything this week to upset anyone. I didn't mean to.

Point taken, timmy.

Let's get back to normal, everybody. Polite and big-hearted normal, that is.

I need this place too much right now to see it trashed. I have lived thru something like that once before...and it was a huge loss.

Hope I haven't done anything to upset you, if so I'm really sorry. Please don't do anything rash...

You were the one who listened to my confusing ramble of an email almost a year and a half ago, I probably owe you more than I will ever understand for that. Thank you so much for this place, the continuous hard work and the money you put into it.

My warmest hugs possible:
