Hello, my name is Susan Smith. I am the daughter of Janice Smith. I came home tonight and saw my mother crying on her bed. I asked her what she was sad about. She told me that she found this website and was having an amazing time talking to some of you. But then she told me that she couldn't get on to the website. She felt she was being rude to all of you for not responding. That's why she was crying,
I believe that somebody banned my mom from this site. Whoever did this, shame on you! This was literally my mom's first day on the internet. It took her SO LONG to even try it. She doesn't even want to be near the computer I bought for her.
If someone can give me an explanation, that would be fantastic.
If someone can give my mom an apology, that would be even better.
Well - the only reason people get banned here is some outrageous behaviour.(Personal attacks, horrible language, etc. None of the "users" have the ability to ban her or anyone else. Only administration can do that, and they rarely do so.
Is it possible she just can't remember her password? What was her "name" on the sight? (My is dramamam611, for example.)
Also: using complete names on a public website (for either of you) is not smart.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

And yes, it does look like Janice has been banned. All of her posts about cats are gone. BWW also had an opportunity to say something with other threads but they did not. I’m sure they figured out the account was not actually Janice but someone f*cking around but damn it, it was some fun f*cking around.

All of Janice's posts were deleted and her account closed because the moderators probably believe she is a troll (starting a joke thread). And if she is for real, the moderators were probably protecting her from all of us nasty people.
Ah....I missed all the Janice threading. So I'm guessing she is her own daughter?

Literally nobody was nasty to her though. We were all having fun and it was respectful, if absolutely ridiculous.

Never give up being nice DM. It is one of our best attributes especially in this day and age. But if you know someone is a troll or a nasty person or possibly loves Trump, feel free to disregard my advice.
