With regard to some of the posts made by Vexing, I'd agree that some may be viewed as only humor. However, that being said I do think that Vexing, along with some others, tend to instigate and antagonize to a point beyond a reasonable level that begins to depart from the core reason for this site and these forums...which is support. These forums, like most others, go through their ups and downs and stages with more rowdy users, but with this site dealing with such personal and emotional issues, the rules cannot afford to be broken as easily as on a generic message board.
Vexing does provide valuable support and comfort to other users which I would hope she continues to do when her account is re-instated. But maybe a little more restraint with regard to handling a topic that is spiraling out of control and getting into the realm of personal attacks is necessary. For instance, if I notice a thread is getting too heated, or starting to drift off point I usually try to leave it be and move on to others instead of continue an endless and hopeless battle with someone else.
Anyways, thanks for the update Susan.
