you know, Jennyann, I had always thought so,but I allowed myself to get sucked in to a melee here the last few days - as soon as I realized how it actually was, I backed off all concerned. I wish them all well, and will NOT be getting into any more of those frays. It just makes me think I don't know my own mind, that I could go there even a LITTLE. I thought I was more adult than I am, apparently...but from now on I will avoid all conflict here, as soon as I see it.
shame on me.

I always strive to be the kind of person I would want for a friend.
I consider that I play very well on this site. I mind my Ps & Qs, are considerate of others views, and never degrade someone simply because they have the opposite opinion to me.
But I must admit to becoming a little stroppy over some of the less than polite behaviour on here lately but apart from that momentary lapse, ( from which I have now recovered), I try and join in with whatever is going.
I hope to continue playing well and politely on this site.

Well, I think you are one of the smarter ones here when you use the word, "Play." IF I do not like a question, or have nothing decent to answer with, I pass it by. If I disagree with a statement, I pass it by, for I really do not believe that anything written here will change anyone's minds. I do not take pop shots at others in answers, for that is just mean spirited. IF someone actually asks for advice, I think very carefully before I write...I do not want anyone to take advice of mine that, at least, is not thought out PRIOR to writing. I do not give thumbs up or down, for that is arrogance. Back to the queston....do I play well with others on this site? I try, but I am sure, at times, I fail...but it is never intentional.

I used to hang out at the family relationships group, and was saddened by how many deeply troubled people were asking for help. I don't visit there much any more because it was too depressing but I tried to answer when it was appropriate and got a lot of best answer points. There were a couple of other sites here that I used to visit, but now I've pretty much narrowed it down to Senior Citizens and the Global Warming site. I'm compelled to set people straight on GW.

Yes, I try to anyway. I am very respectful of others which ever category I answer in. I answer questions that I think I can add something to from my perspective, but I learn much more than I teach. Occasionally someone brings a much needed smile to my face and I hope sometimes I can do the same for others.

I guess I do.
I used to answer questions just to answer, but now I try to answer the questions in which I can actually help someone. If this is what you mean. I try to steer away from insults and name calling, simply becasue that's childish. If I can't answer the question with a proper answer, then I won't waste my time. Nothing I hate more than someone asking a question and seeing answers like "no," or "sure." Know what I mean?
Even this question for some reason I have 3 paragraphs and it's just an opinion question. I gotta get a life....

I don't play with anyone at all on this site or the internet as a whole. I might insert a little humor to my answers, but that is done to add fun to the answer.

I have always tried to not make waves in my life, In my family I've become the "referee" or mediator to conflicts . It's not a place that I want to be. I found Seniors and visit to offer advice or ask the odd question It has become my escape or sancuary from the negative aspects in my life and I really don't want to insult or disrespect anyone here because I have grown to feel I "know" a lot of you,young as well as older folks like me . This is real and surreal but ,I like it here and don't want to abandon this group of great people.

aha a confession from a troll, right her in front of your eyes my people, she says "if I feel my buttons have been pushed I retaliate",
Its plain for all of you to see before you lose the rest of the "good people" from your site, isnt that true ndnquah?
HOW do you retaliate? By reporting everything someone else asks or answers just because you didnt like what they said and it "pushed your buttons"?
What is it Isotope said to set you off on the warpath? "Not everyone had a perfect childhood and if you think they did, you are naive".
You thought you were being attacked and have been after her ever since, by YOUR OWN ADMISSION on other answers sites,
You said "I asked a question about happy childhood memories and Isotope attacked me, she is going to find out she is messing with the wrong person"
You have also accused almost everyone on Yahoo of being Isotope. Including me. You need to step back and do a reality check.

The YA nursery monitors don't think I do; sometimes they send Warnings to Mommy through my email.
However, I try. On the other hand, since I don't suck my thumb anymore, I talk a lot, and sometimes the big boys punch me in the face.
Then I throw cookies at them.
