My first flaming was over sidewalks and pretty much driven by LHC and Cville (I think LHC called it "asinine").
I'm still here! It was one of my first threads. I think I took a little bit of time off and just rolled with it. I was very very very bored with work when I first started here.
Yes I sure did. I got called out because I was being a drama whore about the dead terrorist in the funeral home in my town.
In my defense it was only a few weeks post partum and I think that played a big part of it. I totally survived and I think I did so because once called out I was like "ya know what.. you guys are right I am being a drama queen"
I don't know what people think of me. I would hope people like me but I am not even sure enough people even know who I am to care... which kinda bums me out.

Yes Im sure I've been flamed. I think when I bitched about my Dad not inviting me to his house on Xmas and I think when I found out I was PG a few weeks ago.
I'm fine I survived. The harsh comments helped me come to my senses.
My dad is still the same and I have decided to step away from him for awhile.
I'm still PG and we are now seriously looking to get married.
if i have been flamed, i didn't realize it was happening and thought we were just debating. when i VERY first joined, i mentioned that i wear open-toed shoes to work and immm was like "only unprofessional morons do such a thing!" and i was like "many of my revered female bosses/colleagues do so" and she was like "they are wrong, you are wrong and probably from one-stoplight hickville go back to your corner!!" which i remember, but didn't feel flamed. i felt like i'd been in a discussion with a particularly verbose, daft relative.
so, i guess i've bounced back.
ETA: there is a chance that like a billion people hate me and i also haven't realized that yet. ha.
i have no recollection of "flaming" ninja about sidewalks, although i do remember being highly amused that someone named COUNTRYbride was all over sidewalks like white on rice.
What happened? said fake boobs were fake, deleted precious jlm troll stuff, made a typo
How did you bounce back? lay low and then just start posting again, same
Have people accepted you since? yes
This thread is brought to you by the Cheerios thread that I still cannot access, but I assume there is flaming because the thread continued. I copied and pasted mrsbpo's last two posts into word to see how long they were: 1803 words, 2.5 pages singled spaced. .:makes a coo coo sign with finger:.
I am sure I have, but it escapes me. Generally I apologize if I realize I've been a complete ass, and I drop it w/o apology if I still think I was right but am not interested in arguing it anymore.I feel pretty accepted here, I know I annoy some people.
I apologize if this was not you but when I first started lurking I think it was you who didn't receive a gift from your H for something so you went and bought yourself a ring and the board was up in arms about this ring and I couldn't figure out why. Does that sound familiar? No? Just me? OK then.
yeah, i have survived a few times. The time about me wanting an asian baby was my favorite though. lol. I don't know if I'm that well liked or accepted. I know I'm definitely not liked by some, and I am liked by others. It doesn't make me lose sleep at night either way.

Yes, once that I can recall although there have been times when I have been called names on ML (by two beloved MLers nonetheless), but I don´t really consider that a flaming.
The one flaming I got was because I was complaining about gas prices, and I was told to get a better job and quit school. It was totally stupid, made no sense at all and it really pissed me off (and there are still people here that actively participated in that thread, LOL).
I don't know if I'd call that million pager about Mormonism back in October/Novemberish a flaming, but it did cause me to GBGBCN for about an hour. haha. I just sort of got over it. I like this place too much to leave over something silly like that. I've found some really good people here and you guys are going to have to work harder to get me to leave.
I think someone flamed me before we moved here for something related to my H's LDS mission and school, but I can't remember what it was about or who it was. Oh and someone had a few choice words for me when I intro'd and said I was LDS, but again, I don't remember who it was or if it really was a flaming because it was just one person IIRC.
