this is the most positive forum ive been on but every so often things get a bit heated, ive had a few run ins on here but they dont last long :) its great |
See that's what I've always liked about OB is that you can have a difference of opinion and discuss controversial subjects while still remaining friendly.
Compared to some other forums, OB is remarkably adult.

I STILL smart over comments made to me on the little treasures site.
Me: can't believe i'm pregnant again so soon after having jake (it was five months)
someone: I can't believe someone would be so stupid to get pregnant when they clearly aren't fit.
Me: I didn't even know i was pregnant until i was four months (never got a period between the boys)
someone else: you are stupid not to know. it's pretty basic.
I was soo annoyed and hurt. The OB ladies may have thought similar things, but at least they didn't say it and kick me when i was down.

ouch - that i just plain rude Lizzle  .
It took me quite a few months to pluck up the courage to post here and I am so not brave enough for Treasures or TM (and their boards are no where near as pretty as OB  )

Lizzle that is so rude!
Treasures and TM scare me to. This is a nice well balanced place to be :) I used to stick to the Nov 08 thread, but it took me a while to get my head around becoming a full time wife & mum, where as now I find it awesome having so many positive people around in similar situations

I think the moderators on this site are great too in helping this site stay healthy and postive. Anything that gets too out of hand gets closed or deleted. Then everyone moves on. It doesn't get to that very often, but there have been some cases. I assume a lot of other sites just let nasty threads run and it gets out of hand.
I tend to stay out of heated threads if I can help it.

 Bizzy.
I lurked in the Treasures site for a while to see what it was like but it was full of people like that and honestly some of them came across as not having two brain cells to knock together.
