poor skills drama

[drewkitty]

1). I did not delete my post. I assume that the moderators did although I have had no communication from them. Presumably this was due to some of the comments.

2). I will be reposting it in my LJ tomorrow. This is for tempers to cool.

3). A positive attitude is a poor_skills trait. Really. That is all that was meant by my post.

4). My post was not intended for or targeted to the mentally ill. Threats of self harm do not move me. I feel no special reason not to give good advice to the many who can use it just because a few broken souls might misunderstand it.

5). California Penal Code makes "terroristic threats" a crime. Don't do that in my LJ. (I posted the troll's prior words below in a comment, so that one is a freebie on me.)

6). I am not a troll, I have had this LJ for some years now and actively post.

Feel free to ask questions, post comments, etc. here.

lol at "trampled emotions". If your emotions get trampled by words from a stranger over the internet, I think it's time to not have internet.

I'm also laughing at you calling Drew evil, I met him. He's actually really nice. I also know some truly vile people, I would consider you lucky if Drew is what you consider "evil". You are a ridiculous human being.

Thank you for the ego-boo. Consensus was evenly divided whether this person is a troll or in severe mental crisis. I am tending towards the latter, so even though I find his acting out mildly annoying, I think it's healthy if it gets him the help he needs.

ya, well, I think then need help but not for mental lj-trauma. In my experience people who self-harm DON'T use it as a manipulative tool to guilt others. "you're wrong I'm gonna cut myself to prove it" "if you don't buy me a pony for christmas I'll kill myself" blah blah. No, the warning signs of real self-harmers aren't that obvious.

So yes, either troll or they really are so disconnected with reality they think the majority of posters are dumb enough to shower them with sympathy.
