Did she quit or get banned?

she decided to quit because she didn't like the tone of some of the people/responses.

It looks like she deleted her account. I don't know what happened since I wasn't on much yesterday.
I hope she comes back. I really enjoyed chatting with her.

That's a shame. Rule #1. Itsa message board. Don't let it get personal.

I'm not pointing fingers, well, yes I am - I just read Rick's thread and doesn't look like things went so well.

Rick is a troll and is in no way affiliated with EFCO, INC.

oh stop EFCO, he is not. He started a discussion that that is very sensitive to some maybe most people.

I liked her too... I thought she'd been with WIR for a while... I hate that she deleted her account!
But everyone needs to realize that while some people are meaner here than IRL (I really hope to God they're not this mean IRL...) it's just words. And the meanies need to realize that there is an actual person with feelings attached on the other end of a keyboard somewhere.

Rose, I don't believe people go out of their way to be "meanies" here. There are some topics that get passionate & sensitive, but in life you need to have tough skin. I feel bad she is gone right now, but if you can't handle the interaction and different view points, maybe this is not the place to be.

I do try to believe that people are not being deliberately mean... however some people are more sensitive and, like you said, maybe shouldn't be here. Maybe I was talking about more than just the EE board? HUH?

That's exactly what happened. The topic was controversial and sensitive and bound to get a bit heated, so you have to either grow a thick skin and be open to the fact that some people's viewpoints might be counter to your own, or avoid the discussion.

Suz sent me a PM explaining why, which i won't share... however, there was one particular comment made that really sealed it for her..
i feel bad that SHE felt so bad, because i thought she was a nice and decent person and enjoyed having her here.

I actually sent her a PM myself, because I wasn't sure if it had been me! we'd been discussing stuff on that thread, and I somehow missed that one post. I hope she comes back, she was pretty nice.

I hope she takes some time to rethink her decision to leave and comes back too.

That is unfortunate that people have to turn to personal attacks. I honestly do not know all that happened since I was gone most of the day. I really liked Suze. I have different opinions than she does, but that is ok with me. If we all believed the same, then the world would be boring. I just try to avoid the threads and topics that I feel could get too nasty.
I hope she takes a little break and then comes back. I know that there are several threads and posters that would welcome her.

She still posts (as a guest, I think) on one of the WIR Racer threads. Of all the reasons to leave a message board, disagreeing with what is said would not be my reason. I have a right to my point of view, as does everyone else. If I want to speak up, I do so with at least some measure of respect and politeness (and proper emoticons). If the thread is too hot for me, I just don't go there. I have to decide if it's worth it to me to get involved sometimes, or still respect you guys in the morning.

That's the way to handle it but sometimes we don't know how a topic may really "hit home" to someone for personal reasons.

I Liked Suze, and I'm sorry she was run off. She was a good poster. This why it is important to be nice to each other and not judgmental.
I know for a fact she is not the only poster run off this board.
I want this board to flourish....
