User Insults

Over the last four or five days, the same small group of people has been taking advantage of the fact that the moderators are away from the Alternative Medicine subforum to systematically harass Kimberly Ward. If this were just some petty Insult, I probably wouldn't say anything at all, but we are talking about severe humiliation here—bullying, and making direct and indirect claims that this member belongs in a psychiatric ward. What makes it even more repulsive is that she has mentioned several times her struggle with infertility, and now these few individuals are taking indirect jabs at her because of it, which is truly disgusting...
Here are a few examples of this degradation. There is so much spam flying around that it’s difficult for me to track down every single instance, but perhaps one of the moderators could take a look through the last five or six pages of the Raw food, Nutrition, and Vaccination threads in this same subforum; everything should be there if it hasn't already been scrubbed...

From what I can see, there isn't any evidence that anyone has actually insulted her while she was busy hurling insults at other users , as demonstrated by the examples provided below. 🤷

Furthermore, she never actually claimed that she couldn't have children—at least, I haven't seen her say anything like that anywhere. I mean, I don't know, where are you getting that from?

So, I have to ask— why are you making things up?
And why on earth are you stepping in to act as her defense attorney? Can't she just start her own thread if she feels it's necessary?

Also, since you've gone ahead and cited those points above—even though they aren't even insults—why didn't you mention Kimberly Ward's direct insults toward other members?

Kimberly Ward said:Oh right, it’s pretty obvious your brain cells are basically mush.

There are more patients here than there are doctors.

Kimberly Ward said:I thought you were smarter.You clearly can't see how fools are playing you and "mocking" you in such a snide, sarcastic way.

Kimberly Ward said:You really are an idiot.You're just now showing up.If I were you, I'd pack up and move out to the middle of nowhere where you belong.

Kimberly Ward said:But since you can't see past your own nose, that's your problem. I'm not the one getting offended, you're the one acting sensitive, probably because you haven't had enough attention lately.

Kimberly Ward said:Oh yes,I just love smart-alecks like you, trying to lecture everyone else on how things work,when they clearly lack any real substance of their own—probably because they have such deep-seated insecurities that they felt the need to major in psychology.>And yet, here they are, peddling wisdom to others.>In reality, they’re about as bright as a broken lightbulb; it’s almost a shame to compare them to animals.>[/I]

Kimberly Ward said:Y

Oh, please,you hypocrite. . You’ve really just demonstrated exactly how clueless you are right here.

Furthermore, she actually went and dug into a user's private medical history, which is a massive violation of the rules:

Kimberly Ward said:I don't want to make Ego upset, but the man is a heart transplant recipient.If he doesn't get his flu shot, the mortality risk is incredibly high for him.

Also, since you’re calling this topic user harassment, what do you have to say about your own track record regarding that, and how do you justify all these
Insults

I won't dive into other conspiracy theories since you can't generalize those, but if you want to be a theorist in this group, you either have to be a complete idiot or a troll. And if everyone is a troll, then what are we supposed to think about the trolls who stick around for years, constantly squawking about the exact moment Ringo gets an erection/? That's why, honestly, I find myself hoping they're just dim-witted. Mark Cruz15 said:Maca literally wrote out a full explanation for him just two posts ago.

Mark Cruz15 said:GNU, I suppose we should probably address the elephant in the room regarding that unemployed individual.I suppose I should probably attempt to put together a CV. It feels like one of those tasks that sounds straightforward on paper but becomes an exercise in self-reflection—and perhaps a bit of strategic exaggeration—once you actually sit down to do it. Writing out your own history can be a rather daunting affair, even if you're just trying to summarize your professional journey in a way that doesn't sound entirely boastful or, conversely, completely underwhelming. I might give it a shot, though I suspect the process will involve more staring at a blank cursor than actual typing.

I suppose one should really take a moment to be grateful for the teams that make our modern lives possible—you know, the people ensuring your high-speed internet actually works and everything else stays running smoothly. It’s easy to take it for granted, but honestly, we owe them a debt of gratitude just for existing. But things won't always stay this way, I suppose. Mark Cruz15 Asks: I actually came across a construction site out in Southern California the other day.He’s been MIA from the forum for five days now. Honestly, I ended up getting into a massive argument with my boss because of him. 🤦 Mark Cruz15 Asks: Well, I suppose that’s all there is to it. I honestly feel like spraying this entire subforum with Raid Max might be my only hope, though I have a nagging suspicion that even that wouldn't be enough to actually drive you all away.☕ And finally, regarding the matter of user harassment—specifically when it crosses the line into outright insults—I’ll be posting a massive collection of links shortly that document everything. It seems we’re once again dealing with those same few users who seem to find such joy in hurling constant, incredibly blunt insults at others. It's become a bit of a predictable pattern, really.I have to say, I’m honestly baffled by how Mark Cruz15 somehow managed to miss the whole thing. He didn't even give them a mention, which is pretty wild considering there are blatant, everyday insults tucked into basically every single post they write. 😉 Don't go thinking for a second that I'm joking around here. Here are just a few of the most recent examples, provided quite quickly: Arthur Smith15 said:... Honestly, this person is just completely losing their mind. I was just thinking about the ongoing debate between Guru and Ginger regarding pepper and the whole blending process. It’s one of those topics that seems simple on the surface, but once you start digging into the nuances of flavor profiles and texture, things get surprisingly complicated. I suppose there isn't really a single "correct" way to approach it, which is probably why the discussion keeps circling back to the same points. On one hand, you have the argument for preserving the integrity of the spice, and on the other, the idea that blending creates a more cohesive, integrated experience. Personally, I find myself caught somewhere in the middle. Maybe it depends entirely on what you're trying to achieve with the dish, though I suspect both sides have some valid points if you look closely enough. It's an interesting little tug-of-war, really. So, where have all you Alternative crowd members disappeared to? I feel like things have gotten a little out of hand here. It seems like everyone’s lost their grip on the situation just a touch. I suppose if we’re being honest, things have started to feel a bit chaotic lately. It feels like everything is spiraling just a touch too fast, doesn't it? I mean, maybe I'm just overthinking things—it's probably just my own tendency to dwell—but there's definitely a sense of madness creeping into the periphery of our daily lives. It's that strange, unsettling feeling where the usual rules don't seem to apply anymore. I guess we're all just trying to find some semblance of order in the middle of it all.And what about her? When she persistently lied and claimed I had written somewhere that I was some kind of "fascist," you all just went ahead and egged her on. Absolute trash, spearheaded by that absolute disaster known as Ethan Barrett22... Jerry White29 Asks: Just making sure this doesn't slip my mind. "Real Life She can’t even point to a single instance where Arthur Smith15 actually called himself a fascist or a Nazi, because she completely made it up.

I might have a suggestion... ... while those loyal little flies just keep on buzzing around, making a mess of things. Arthur Smith15 said:😁 Look, you conflict-prone martyr, every single one of those quotes is being used exactly within the context established by your own full posts. Just to make things a little easier for you... Since you might not just be playing dumb, but are actually out of your mind... Whether they stand alone or are tucked away within your longer posts, all these quotes ultimately point to the exact same thing—they carry the same weight and convey the same underlying message. You’re being a total hypocrite. Maybe try using that silly head of yours to actually think things through for once. Before you jump to conclusions and start accusing someone of taking their words out of context, maybe we should take a step back and actually look at the full picture. Don't go messing with the title of someone who's clearly just a sycophant and an absolute sucker for ass.Careful now, you might end up upsetting some of the Guru’s followers—those GNU types. Personally, my spiritual leader is Ethan Barrett22, and his supreme lordship isn't exactly looking for... Total garbage. (like a Guru), I suppose there’s some truth to the idea that we might be repeating ourselves here. It feels like we're circling the same drain, perhaps even duplicating certain points we've already laid out. I guess it happens sometimes when the conversation gets heavy, but I'll try to keep things moving forward. (similar to GNU)...martyrs (like yourself), Absolute lunatics. (Kind of like a scene straight out of Seinfeld) i idiot (like Benny) rather than just being spitefully stubborn towards those crazed Alternative types who roughly fit the profiles mentioned here... Arthur Smith15 said:Look, I even stripped out the irrelevant part of the quote where you kiss the Guru on the backside, but your own comment remains—the one where you try to attribute your own stupidity to me, which I am responding to. So, the context is still very much intact. You either don't understand what "taking something out of context" actually means, or you're just being stubborn at this point (and I'm really hoping you aren't actually that dense)... Roger Cooper91 said: It makes no sense. Like I said after my Google search, I couldn't care less about the opinions of an idiot Jerry White29 said:Look, if you're just being difficult and can't grasp the sheer genius of a recipe involving sliced beets and kale, then there's really no helping you...

Let’s be real—there’s plenty of Insult going around from both sides. It’s just a fact.

Regarding the whole situation with the kids, here’s how this whole mess actually kicked off:

Then Linda Harris44 and China jumped in on the bandwagon too.

...... And they did it knowing full well what this user was saying:

Look, it’s perfectly clear what she’s referring to, but people are taking things to such an extreme it’s honestly getting ridiculous at this point.
Kimberly Ward has dropped hints about her own health issues more times than I can count.

If people didn't already know she couldn't have children, you could practically hang a cat by its tail and prove it!

Honestly, just lock these threads down already, especially since the moderators clearly aren't doing anything anyway.

Once again, that alternative charlatan Ethan Barrett22 is busy compiling posts that he clearly hasn't even bothered to read 😁

There isn't a single insult harsh enough to compare to the absolute garbage produced by this bottom-of-the-barrel forum dweller. This individual spits on the entire field of medicine and actively discourages readers from following standard medical treatments and vaccinations. It is nothing short of uneducated quackery from someone who possesses zero understanding of actual science. For instance, this so-called healer is out here peddling bone fragments as some kind of miraculous cure for cancer 🤦

Incidentally, I have to wonder: why is it that none of these Alternative types—the very ones who love to paranoidly point fingers at anyone they disagree with—ever start a thread questioning the possibility of human cloning? Come on, you Alternative enthusiasts, here is your chance 😁

Chloe Brooks said:Let’s be honest here—there’s an Insult coming from both sides, and that’s just the reality of the situation.

Regarding the whole question of children, here’s how it all started:

It looks like Linda Harris44 and Sophia Fowler44 have decided to join the fray as well.

Knowing that this was written by one of our fellow forum members:

I honestly think we need to take a step back and look at this more objectively. It’s easy to get swept up in the immediate intensity of these debates, but if you really sit with the arguments being presented, there’s a certain level of nuance that seems to be getting lost in the noise. I was reading through some of the points made by Mark Cruz15 earlier, and while I see where he's coming from, I can't help but feel that his perspective might be a bit too narrow for the scope of what we're actually discussing here. Maybe it's just me, but I suspect there are layers to this situation that aren't being fully accounted for in the current discourse. Then you have the comments from Arthur Smith15, which were certainly passionate, but perhaps a little too reactive. It feels like we're oscillating between extreme skepticism and total acceptance without much middle ground. I guess what I'm trying to say is that there's a vast gray area in between these two poles that deserves our attention. I mean, if we look at how similar issues have been handled in major cities like Chicago or New York, we can see that the outcome usually depends on how well the underlying complexities are managed—not just on the loudest voices in the room. We should probably aim for that kind of analytical depth if we want to actually reach any meaningful conclusions. It’s worth considering whether we are focusing on the symptoms rather than the actual cause. Perhaps we should slow down a bit before jumping to any final judgments.

I suppose there’s some merit to what Ethan Barrett22 is suggesting, though I can’t say I’m entirely convinced. It feels like we might be overcomplicating things, perhaps even looking at the problem through a lens that doesn't quite fit the reality of how these systems actually function here in the States. Maybe I’m being too cautious, but I have a nagging feeling that if we follow that specific line of reasoning, we might end up chasing our tails. There’s a certain elegance to the theory, I'll grant you that, but in practice? It seems a bit detached from the messy, unpredictable nature of things. I guess it's easy to build these perfect models on paper, but once you introduce actual variables—real-world friction—the whole thing tends to wobble. I’m curious, though, if anyone else feels this slight disconnect. Is it just me being overly skeptical, or does anyone else sense that we might be missing a crucial piece of the puzzle? I'd love to hear more thoughts on this, provided they aren't just reinforcing the same assumptions we've already debated.

I honestly missed that entirely, mostly because I haven't once in my life felt the need to open the specific thread where those last two posts were living.
I noticed that in the recent discussion regarding vaccinations, someone mentioned that there aren't any children present.

Kimberly Ward said:P.S. On the other hand, I suppose you could say I’ve never been much for the whole dating scene. I guess I just haven't felt the need to jump into it.Personally, I think the idea of pregnancy would be far too much of a risk for me.

So, anyway, He doesn't actually say anywhere that he can't have children. It seems like she hasn't had them for quite some time now. 🤷

Chloe Brooks said:Honestly, we might as well just lean into it and start posting more frequently in these threads, especially since it seems like the moderation isn't really doing much to keep things in check anyway.

If we're being honest, we might as well just shut down this entire subforum altogether, given that there's absolutely zero moderation happening here. And honestly, I don't think it stops at just this section; it seems like several other boards are currently sitting in the same state of neglect without any moderators at all. 😉

So, let me get this straight: if someone throws out a completely baseless accusation on a thread that isn't even being moderated, we’re just supposed to shut the whole thing down immediately? It feels like if anyone makes even the slightest, most unfounded allegation, the entire discussion should just be killed off right then and there. Is that really how this works? 🤦
And what exactly would that achieve? It’s likely the same group of people will just move over to different threads within the subforum anyway. 😁

If we’re following that line of reasoning, we might as well just shut down this entire subforum right now. It’s become an absolute minefield of insults, driven by the same handful of users who seem to think a lack of moderation is a green light to vent their hostility every single day. I’ve already pointed out several instances of this behavior above, and honestly, more is bound to surface shortly. ☕

Wouldn't it be much simpler to just sanction those few individuals and have the whole mess sorted out in the blink of an eye?
I mean, why should we even consider downgrading the entire forum or sub-forum just because of three or four people who spend their time being relentlessly rude to everyone else and practically never post anything that isn't a blatant insult?
If that had actually been done, none of this situation would even be happening right now.

As for everything else—without any links provided, the whole argument feels pretty hollow.

Ethan Barrett22 said:If we’re following that line of reasoning, we might as well just shut down this entire sub-forum right now—it’s basically nothing but an endless loop of Insults from the same handful of people, which I already pointed out above, and honestly, it’s just going to keep happening. ☕

As for anything else—without actual links, you're just talking into the void.

Oh, please, show us the "audience."

How did those other PZK threads even end up?

You’ve been spamming links and basically trying to get people off ignore lists—ignoring their entire track record—by pointing out the same hundred people who "insult" others, all leading to the exact same conclusion: the supermod closes the thread and everything stays exactly the same.

Nothing is ever going to change, so there's really no point in you doing this.

We've seen this movie before.

Arthur Smith15 said:Hmm, just a thought—how is it that none of the Alternative crowd—you know, the ones who love nothing more than pointing fingers at anyone they disagree with—has started a thread about potential clones yet? Come on, you Alternative types, here’s your chance! 😁

Oh yeah, the perfect opportunity.

Besides, I've already been labeled as Monty 🤣

Kimberly Ward As specified by Mark Cruz15:
P.S. On the contrary, I am definitely not a parent. For me, the idea of pregnancy would be far too risky.

Ethan Barrett22 As follows:
So, basically, He hasn't made any statement suggesting that he's unable to have children. It’s been quite some time since she last had them. 🤷 (...)

What business is it of yours, you miserable excuse for a person hiding behind the profile "Ethan Barrett22"? There is plenty of content to be found here on Alternative, but malicious, bottom-tier trash like you is a rare and pathetic sight indeed.

Chloe Brooks said:Oh, please, spare the audience.

How did the other PZK threads even end up?

You just spammed links and practically talked yourself out of being ignored (and you aren't even following their actual work), posting the same people who "Insult" others for the hundredth time, only for the supermoderator to close everything down and leave things exactly as they were.

Nothing is ever going to change, so there's really no point in you doing this.

I would actually ask you to spare the audience.
Spamming on the PZK boards is precisely what happens when someone makes a claim without providing concrete evidence—like a link—which is exactly what you and the others are doing. Personally, whenever I make a statement, I provide a link to back it up and prove my point.

As for how those other threads ended?
I have no idea which ones you're referring to since there isn't a link provided.

If nothing is ever going to change, as you claim, then I don't see why we're even debating here in the first place.

Ethan Barrett22 said:Do me a favor and spare the audience.
Spamming on the PZK is exactly what happens when people start making big claims without providing any actual evidence—you know, like a link—and that’s precisely what you and the rest of them are doing. Personally, whenever I make a claim, I actually back it up with a link to prove I'm not just pulling stuff out of thin air.

So, how did those other threads end?
I have no idea which ones you're talking about since there isn't a single link provided.

If nothing is going to change anyway, as you put it, then I don't see the point in us even having this discussion, right?

Stop playing dumb with everyone else. 🤦

Get it through your head: nobody cares about your spamming.
The moderator will review the thread if they feel like it.

What was the outcome of those linked threads? Did anyone actually get sanctioned?

Are you actually looking for me to link and present proof that no one was punished, just so you can be the "example" and get banned based on the rules set in the opening post of this thread?

A bit petty, isn't it?

Pure hypocrisy here—calling everyone else out while doing the exact same thing yourself.

Has everyone just collectively decided to forget how this actually went down?
It started like this:
Kimberly Ward jumped into the thread and, out of nowhere, started mocking and judging Linda Harris44 for not having kids:

Kimberly Ward said:Someone who doesn't even have children is jumping in to lecture others about motherhood.

Basically, she was making fun of and belittling Linda Harris44 with that comment, even though nobody had even brought up her parental status in the first place.
Then, Ethan Barrett22 chimed in with a congratulation, apparently assuming from Kimberly Ward's post that she had somehow become a mother in the meantime:

Ethan Barrett22 said:Oh, I didn't realize you became a mother in the interim.
That's great news. 😉

Congrats, and may you live to be at least 100! 🙂

Linda Harris44 then followed suit:

Linda Harris44 said:I'll join in the congratulations. 👍

At that point, Kimberly Ward turned to insults, doubling down on the comments about her lack of children and claiming it stemmed from an inferiority complex:

Kimberly Ward said:Oh right, I love know-it-alls like you, trying to lecture everyone elsewhile having no kids of your own because of your inferiority complex,which is why you study psychology. You try to act smart,but you're actually as dim as a chicken—though it would be a shame to insult animals.

It’s pretty clear here: Kimberly Ward unprovokedly began disparaging Linda Harris44 by mocking her for not having children, then later repeated the provocation and added insults, calling her a chicken but saying it would be beneath her to insult animals.

I don't see what the issue is.
It's obvious Kimberly Ward initiated the provocation regarding the lack of children, leaned into it, and kept the insults coming. Honestly, all of Kimberly Ward's remarks are minor compared to the insults we see daily from the same few people, and the jabs Ethan Barrett22 mentioned are just trivialities.

Chloe Brooks said:http://www.example-forum-link.com/thread/1147485

The link you shared is actually quite interesting because it points to the exact thread Kimberly Ward just started after she was insulted, which is pretty obvious from her opening post.
If she were feeling genuinely targeted, wouldn't it make sense that she’d be the one to start a thread about it? 🤷

I don't quite get this sudden wave of concern and legalistic defense for Kimberly Ward, especially since it’s coming from the very same people who were mocking and ridiculing her in her original complaint thread...
In fact, the person who started this whole thing, Mark Cruz15, replied to her almost immediately on that thread (if you check the second post):

Stop spreading this sick propaganda and maybe nobody will bother insulting you.

...which, I suppose, makes it pretty clear he’s essentially condoning the insults, given his reasoning that "Kimberly Ward is spreading sick propaganda." 🤦

And looking at what Sophia Fowler44 posted— it turns out Kimberly Ward was actually the one who initially provoked Linda Harris44 by making comments about her not having children, an accusation she even repeated in a subsequent post...

Chloe Brooks said:What was the actual outcome of these linked threads? Was anyone actually sanctioned?

Nothing happened. But I guess the question is, what point are you trying to make? What are we even doing here if that's the case?

"Maybe they'll stop trolling the forum now."

It’s pretty funny how people just cherry-pick quotes and leave out the context.

Kimberly Ward, what am I even hearing? Do you have kids?

China, especially that snarky little "Do you have kids?" comment of yours.

This absolutely deserves a "making people look stupid" penalty:

"...or maybe she already has two..."
She moved the goalposts fast, considering she said just the other day that she doesn't have any.

I saw her mention in the Vaccination thread recently that she doesn't have kids.

What a complete joke. 🤦

I honestly don't see what the issue is here, except for maybe Kimberly Ward’s incredibly obvious mockery of Linda Harris44, who has made her stance clear on two separate occasions.

If you look at the quote provided by Sophia Fowler44, it's evident that Kimberly Ward was making a very pointed and direct jab at Linda Harris44 regarding her not having children—something no one had even brought up to her previously.>
That seems to be the core of the mockery, and it was quite blatant. She doubled down immediately after, moving straight into an Insult, as evidenced by the quote Sophia Fowler44 shared above.

I'm not entirely sure where she got the idea that Linda Harris44 doesn't have kids (and frankly, why would anyone care?), because I don't recall her ever mentioning anything about that, at least not in any of the threads I follow 🤷. Meanwhile, Kimberly Ward mentioned she didn't have children about five or six months ago (which I've quoted above, and which you also noted across about ten different threads you track). So, if she didn't have them six months ago, it’s entirely possible she has them now.

Ultimately, whether Kimberly Ward has children or not—or if we follow your logic that she simply *can't* have them—wouldn't it be completely nonsensical and contradictory for her to mock another woman for lacking them? It just doesn't track. A person wouldn't typically resort to that kind of taunt unless they actually had children themselves or were planning to have them.
I think you'll agree there's absolutely no logic to that line of reasoning.

What actually happened in those linked threads? Did they get banned or what?

Are you seriously trying to drop links just to prove no one got punished, hoping that you won't get sanctioned as an example in the opening post here?

Being difficult, aren't we?

Pure hypocrisy right here. You're calling everyone else out while doing the exact same thing.

I didn't even realize this thread was open. All I know is that user Ego himself mentioned waiting for a heart transplant several times. How is that supposed to be "invading private life"? I have zero intention of sinking to their level anymore. They're either playing "stupid" or they actually *are* stupid. Honestly, it feels like the first one. ☕

This thread is totally off track.
It was actually Kimberly Ward who was throwing Insults my way.
Just look at how she’s been belittling me—calling me names like a fathead, a suck-up, a chicken, or just plain stupid. And where are the screenshots of her posts? It’s not like I’m sitting here having a one-sided conversation with myself...

Kimberly Ward went full aggressive-argumentative mode; Ethan Barrett22 actually suggested they just drop it and get back to the actual topic, but she shot him down.
That pretty much tells you everything you need to know about what she's really after.

It’s weird how nobody seems to be pointing out the posts from Biljka112 or Arthur Smith15—and like I said before, the stuff from Kimberly Ward where she’s insulting other members.

Personally, I had no clue Kimberly Ward didn't have kids due to health issues... I don't go digging through her posts in other threads.
So, either you guys are all stalking her posts elsewhere, or you're intentionally leaking a fellow member's private info right here in public.

Honestly, this whole thread—this supposed "defending" of Kimberly Ward—is just a way for you people to target a member who happens to be a thorn in your side, even though you'd probably struggle to keep things going without her input.
Kimberly Ward is just being used as a tool to take shots at Ethan Barrett22 and the rest of us.
And yeah, that's basically the whole story. 🍿

Look, Ethan Barrett22, you've messed up again. 😉

1. You constantly brag in every other post about having your little "ignore list," which is literally just you trolling different threads, and then—presto!—you're lightning-fast at quoting us the second you lose your cool. Oh, sure, "they told you" 😉

Just like how you usually derail entire discussions from post to post, throwing out insinuations about people being clones, claiming we're all paid actors, or singing songs about someone's anatomy—which is exactly why you got banned here in the first place. Right, because you decided on your own that your provocations were just "jokes." ☕

2. In my case, at least, your quoting is incredibly dishonest.

I did say I "didn't care what an idiot thought," but where is the rest of the quote? "who insulted my family

Oh, look at that. I didn't name anyone specifically, yet somehow you managed to identify yourself in that statement 😉, and now you've categorized this whole thing as an Insult. 🐔

While I find it amusing how this user keeps tripping over his own lies, I already knew that long ago. Honestly, I feel bad that one female member's private life is being dragged through the mud here, so I told the thread starter to drop it since nothing is going to be resolved anyway.

Roger Cooper91 said:I already told the OP to just let it go, because at this point, nothing is actually going to be resolved...

There really ought to be some lines you don't cross. Like I mentioned over in that other thread, there's a massive difference between poking fun at people in the Alternative scene when they're slightly off base, and actually humiliating someone who is dealing with legitimate medical issues—mocking them specifically for those struggles. That kind of behavior is just revolting to me...

Mark Cruz15 said:So, for the last four or five days now, there’s been this same group of people just taking advantage of the fact that the mods are away from the Alternative Medicine subforum... they've been systematically bullying Kimberly Ward... it's honestly getting out of hand...

What do you mean by "systematic"? You've gotta be kidding me... seriously... nobody even had more than three or four posts where this stuff was happening. And honestly, it was Kimberly Ward who started the whole thing, just out of nowhere, throwing insults at Linda Harris44 and making those nasty comments about her not having kids. I see other people have already posted proof of that. And then she went right ahead and did it all over again in the very next post, just like everyone else has already shown in the threads they uploaded earlier...

Hey, Mark Cruz15... help us out here. Is it actually considered an Insult when a handful of people on this board can't go a single post without taking shots at others? And I’m not just talking about three or four posts, or even the last few months... we're talking about more than a year and a half of this constant nonsense. Honestly, there are some guys on here who don't have a single post that isn't filled with some kind of dig at someone else... it's getting old... It’s happening on basically every single thread... just constant stuff directed at everyone and every single user out there...
Just throwing out a few more examples I managed to dig up... I see Ethan Barrett22 already dropped a massive amount of stuff too, so my bad if I'm doubling up on anything. Honestly, I just haven't had the spare time to double-check everything right now...

Arthur Smith15 said:God, that is just straight-up pure, unadulterated ignorance... honestly, it's like looking at a total lack of class and common sense right in the face. Just absolute bottom-of-the-barrel behavior... truly nothing but pure, unfiltered rudeness and backward thinking... ugh...Seriously, just walk away from that mess of a profile... "Dialectics" needs to go...

Arthur Smith15 said:... writes Crazy... So, I was just thinking about that whole conversation between Guru and Ginger regarding peppers and blending... honestly, such an interesting take on it all... 😁
...
Where'd you all go, Alternative crowd? You seem to have lost your grip on this one... Wait, what happened there? Just lost my train of thought... totally blanked out for a second... anyway...Hey, what's up... you there? 😁 And then, when she kept straight-up lying about me claiming to be some kind of fascist or Nazi... you guys just went ahead and fueled the fire instead... Total garbage... just straight up trash, especially when you’ve got that absolute joke of a person named Ethan Barrett22 leading the charge at the front... what a mess...

Arthur Smith15 said:Silence... and then that ringing starts up inside your head... Unless you're currently sitting in on one of those psychiatric evaluations...

Arthur Smith15 said:So you aren't looking for work or even getting an education, you're just leeching off your parents and playing tough on this forum at night just out of pure spite 😁 And you're a total loser...

Arthur Smith15 said:What a freaking joke you are 🤦 😁

Is it okay to just humiliate people on here by calling them trash?

Arthur Smith15 said:The trash actually has a suggestion...

... while his loyal little flies buzz around happily 😁

Is that allowed? Isn't that considered harassing users?

Well GNU, go ask your spiritual leader for a relaxing smoothie, I'm sure he doesn't want his follower acting out like this...

Jerry White29 said:you've got Ethan Barrett22, that crackhead doctor and Guru who rips through everything he finds, uses supplements, eats nothing but rice and pasta, yet spends all his time here preaching about raw food... or you've got that unemployed bum living off their parents and sucking up to that same crackhead doctor and Guru.

Jerry White29 said:Alright then, let's get this show on the road... In the betting game...

Jerry White29 said:Go ahead and keep messing with that hothead, the Guru, and his useless little sidekick who can't do anything but act like a complete jerk...... and you're gonna find yourself on my ignore list pretty soon too...

Jerry White29 said:Ethan Barrett22 is just out here throwing shade at the doctor and the Guru... honestly... So, you want me to break down why everyone freaks out about passing through those Van Allen belts, huh? Honestly, it sounds way scarier than it actually is if you know what's going on... but yeah, there’s definitely some science to the anxiety. Basically, we're talking about these massive zones of trapped particles—mostly electrons and protons—circling the Earth. When you're blasting through them in a spacecraft, it's not just one type of "bad stuff" hitting you. You've got high-energy electrons and protons all swirling around, and they can be pretty intense depending on which part of the belt you're cutting through. As for the dose? That’s the big question everyone asks. It really depends on how fast you're moving, how much shielding your ship has, and exactly which path you take through the belts. If you're just doing a quick transit, like a shuttle launch or something similar, the dose is usually pretty manageable... well within safety limits for astronauts. But if you linger or if your shielding is thin, that radiation starts adding up. We're talking about ionizing radiation, which is the kind that can actually mess with your cells and DNA if you aren't careful. The main culprits acting on the passengers are those heavy ions and high-speed protons. They basically act like tiny microscopic bullets flying through your body. Most modern spacecraft are designed with enough protection to handle the brunt of it, but it's still something NASA engineers have to calculate down to the decimal point... because, you know, nobody wants to deal with radiation sickness mid-flight...
Or are you just gonna keep being a total jerk... I wonder who all is actually lurking behind that "ignore list" right now... just watching everything unfold from the shadows...

So, you guys see how Jerry White29 goes at it in every single post... just calling Ethan Barrett22 some kind of fake doctor or a total Guru... honestly, he’s been doing this for over a year now... just constant insults...
Is this just straight-up bullying? Or is stuff like this actually allowed around here...?

I could probably have this all wrapped up by tomorrow... honestly, this whole board is just drowning in Insults right now. It’s getting ridiculous. We really need to start handing out penalties to anyone being this blatantly disrespectful... because seriously, you don't see this kind of toxic behavior on any other forum out there...

stormyrider28 said:Isn't calling a forum member total garbage actually just straight-up humiliation?

Is that even allowed here? Isn't that considered belittling other users?
There's more...

Honestly, I don't really care about the semantics of it. If you truly believe someone is violating the rules, then go ahead and start a thread in this subforum. Personally, I’ve already filed a complaint regarding a specific issue, so let’s just wait and see what the moderators have to say about it... Best regards.
