Toxic people are the ones
Foxy,
The most toxic are the ones who dish out venom but when it is thrown back at them they carry on like little kids, trying to have the last word at all cost.

Why would they want to stay when someone on OLO just said he does not believe the Big Bang is real. We can accept it because we know it was said by someone who has a poor knowledge of everything but a newcomer might react with 'Ratbag! I'm getting out of here!'

Individual,

You got that right - that's exactly what Belly and I
are saying. Glad that you understand.

Dear Belly,

Good attitude to have - and I shall try to do the same.
Life is too short to keep on trying to respond to someone
whose moniker should be - "tough, tenacious, biting nit!"
(smile).

Have a great day!

individual,

Right again. The poster you are addressing must always have the last say, and I'll bet I'm not the only one who never reads what she says anymore because she could nag for the Southern Hemisphere. Same old same old, ad infinitum.

Belly is threatening to leave again, blaming me. Gee, what a powerful bloke I must be! The last person he used as an excuse to cut and run was a poster called 'on the beach'. Do you remember him?

Victimhood is practised by people always on the lookout for insults and slights. There are books written on the subject. Wikipedia has a simple definition of the syndrome:

"Manipulators often play the victim role ("woe is me") by portraying themselves as victims of circumstances or someone else's behavior in order to gain pity or sympathy or to evoke compassion and thereby get something from someone".

Belly plays the victim, and Foxy supplies the 'pity' and 'compassion'

ttbn,

Again you prove my point. It's always someone
else's fault - never yours. Yet you continue
to ridicule Belly's posts, his style of writing,
you insult him, and expect him to not react.
The same goes for me. You say you're indifferent to what he
thinks yet you persist in commenting on it with venom.

You just can't leave well enough alone.
If you are indifferent to what he thinks - leave him alone.
He does not want to interact with you. Yet you're the one
following him around and making slurs against him.

No one is playing the victim here - except you.
And your toxicity is there in your posting record for
all to see. I mean - look at the personal attacks you've
done on me. And making it worse by attacking not only me but
my family, my mother when she passed away - my illness and
disability, you're a real class act.
I stretched my hand out to you several times and tried to
make peace - it did not last long. Because you just can't
help yourself.

Have a look at how many and which posters support you.
Belly can outdo you any day of the week.

You need to lift your game here - otherwise you'll
become a total scab on this forum - that nobody will
want to scratch.

Individual you and I have different views, is that ok
We clash, but in the end get along with one another
I suspect in real life it would be much the same, we may even like one another, my best mate votes Liberal
You however NEVER follow my to a thread YOU HAVE TAKEN NO ROLL IN to insult me
Yes I left once, but the poor silly twit did not leave with me , I only know in time he was no longer here
Some [unable to let me have other opinions] do not like me, two troll me often
Judge me if you must, but just because you share opinions with our toxic toad, do not tell me I am the one in the wrong
Back on thread, it was never my intention to let a truth be seen here
But yes read the post history, see the needless silly rude welcome toxic gave many new comers
This site was a lot of hard work put in by a few, to give us a place to comment, not to fuel hateful views about others
