A friend of mine has offered sound advice based on her vast experience and knowledge and has recieved scathing remarks from another person, also with vast experience, but in a responsable position as moderator of the forum where this occured.
What is important here is not the actual advice given but the public personal attack that followed. This was unprovoked, inappropriate and unwarrented.
Now there is one lady who is left feeling hurt and also has the possability of it affecting her business adversely.
This is so wrong.
The person in attack mode was a moderator! It really shouldnt happen.
Im thinking of leaving the forum for good
I feel so strongly about this that I felt I had to post, I dont want to get into arguments. But personal attacks on forums shouldnt be allowed. I cant stand by and not give my friend some support and back up. Im hoping others who visit the livefood forum will also offer Tanya/Cornfan some backup and support aswell.

yeah i found that really evil of her to launch such a personal attack upon someone who i respect very much and has given me a lot a help and has a lot of experience and a collection thats phenomenal ;D and the attacker should think about what she had said as this has angered a lot of people as she may have the experience but she has a nasty attitude that sickens me and i personally do not care about her experience over the years because of her attitude towards others is just not on sorry for the rant but it has angered me so p.s tanya you will always have my support and back up as you are a great person who has helped me a lot thanx lee

Thank you so much for this, Angi and Lee. Words cannot describe how utterly mortified I was this morning when I found that attack on Livefood. For the first time on any forum I felt completley alone and backed into a corner with a big bully pummeling me and was completely helpless. I've tried so hard to come up with a reason for her attack on me and simply cannot find one. I've got quite a thick skin and can take a fair amount but this shocked the living daylights out of me. It seriously made me want to chuck it all in which just isn't like me at all.
I'm afraid I'm still too upset to say very much. Just wanted to say thanks though.

ah- that was strange - although I would like to point out that Marueen is not a moderator...

I don't understand why Livefood let her get away with it. It's bullying and intimidation in its purest sense.

I have removed it now as I felt that it would just string out and that it shouldn't really be on a public forum- the mods are discussing it

Word on the grapevine is that she is under a lot of stress. I hope she feels better soon and when she does, I hope that she realises how much hurt she has caused to another person and appologises. If not Im going to be sending some camel fleas her way lol. Anyway Im not starting a slanging match here. I want to offer support to Tanya and I would even offer Maureen support if she appologised for the scathing remarks. I do not want anyone to use this post as an excuse for more personal attacks. It really is not right. Any such posts will be removed or edited.
