Not to be here after some nasty pile-on that was a bit much, to put it mildly.

I miss her too.

Yes the attacks can be bad. Another DUer had the same thing happen recently and doesn’t post anymore either.

I miss both her and sheltielover.

I loved her Cozy Mysteries updates. I wish the people who are subjected to “pile on” would remember that there are more of us who enjoy their commentary than there are of those other “negative howlers”.

It mad me mad when it caused her to leave. It still irritates me.
She was a good poster.

I am glad she is out there, even if not posting. She is a kind person, was very helpful to me.

If I don't like posts, or the way an argument is presented, I use the block feature. There are other sites where differences of opinion can be laid out, with gloves off. DU promotes our viewpoint. Why send angry vibes to people with the same outlook?

I miss SheltieLover, too. Thank you for reminding me that I have another friend in my universe.

I had to quit posting in a forum that I might have enjoyed that was on another site. The responses to my posts were universally toxic and I decided I'd had enough.
