Dodging Bullets

So, please tell me, what are you all thinking about this? All you people with "faces" to show, willing to put yourself in the line of fire while a sniper shoots from the bushes, what will eventually happen here? What are your thoughts on this? With much sadness I contemplate leaving for good, this place I found comraderie, support, and others who could help untangle the web of my past, that I could run free as I feel God originally intended. If there is anything my past has taught me, there is little learning when all your energy goes into dodging bullets. In the end that is all you aquire- skills for dodging bullets.
but they're not bullets, are they, just long rambling posts from someone who fancies themselves as a psychology or semantics expert who is used to being verbiose to get attention.

that's a great quote though!

Hello again Phoenix! Good to see you. I haven’t felt tormented by anyone (I tormented myself a while back, but that was me!). I haven’t let any of it get to me: not the anonymous postings (it’s fascinating to empathise too: why crazy Guests do the weird stuff that they do). It would be different if you or another ‘name’ started attacking me. I’d cry in the corner.
Dodging bullets: have you seen any of The Matrix films? You just put up your palm and the bullets stop at your command! Nobody here, certainly not anyone anonymous, is going to turn up on my doorstep and really punch me on the nose.
Seriously, it’s a small world but it’s still a big one if you want it to be. So few people browse here that I feel safe revealing as much about myself as I do (it’s all been true). And after all, most people are more interested in themselves (Ns or not) than me, so there’s little to be really worried about. And if people say things you don’t want to hear, don’t listen. Come and talk to me instead! We’re allowed to start a thread with “Hey {named poster}, what do you think of this?”. It might be a bit ‘cliquey’ but then again, anyone else can join in.
Think of it more as deflecting bullets, rather than dodging them.
Are you feeling stronger now? Are you physically better? I’d like it if you could tell me a joke Phoenix! (And I’d tell you my second-favourite. It’s terrible and corny.) :D Sometimes we need a little light-heartedness… best, P

As I said in the other post, ignore the trolls, N's, or whatever you choose to call them. Stop feeding them, they will eventually go away. Drives them crazy to be ignored. It might be hard to do, but it works, eventually.
