I have seen this before. If you go to any forum, you will find people who are nice, kind and supporting, some who give out lots of information and then there are those who get snippy. Some people take an innocent comment and blow it up all out of proportion. Others just seem to jump on every thing others post.
Most people here are here because they or a loved on is in pain. That is what is most important. It doesn't make any difference if you have AS, RA or one of many inflammatory conditions that fit into this family.
We can choose to ignore these comments, to post a PM to someone who makes a snippy comment or to wade into the fight. I don't know what is best. I don't like to sit by and see someone being bullied.
It breaks my heart when someone leaves because of a comment that someone makes. Personally, I am too stubborn to let some bully chase me away.
Michelle, I am so sorry that you are feeling so bad. So many at KA are hurting and needing the love and support that the majority of our KA people give. (((Michelle))) Feel better soon.
