There is a good example right there. just because someone shares a complaint or something real that happened in their life that was bad. Doesn't mean they have a martyr's complex. That was a very judgemnetal statement. Do you not even see how you come across </font>[/QUOTE]What DHK is referring to is the fact that we (the Moderators) have had our inboxes full all day long with Moderator Alerts regarding posts (all made by the same person) complaining about how badly they have been treated by both their fellow posters and the Moderators/Administrators. However, I personally cannot remember ever receiving one Moderator Alert, from the person who is complaining, notifying me that they have been attacked in one of the forums I moderate. What I have seen is that person taking offense at a post and responding in an unkind manner (and with personal attacks). That is not the proper mode of response. If you have a problem notify us by sending a Moderator Alert. Then you'll have to wait for our response because we are not always on-line and monitoring every single post that is made. However, what you must not do is leap to your own defense and start making personal attacks just because you feel that you have been attacked. Notify us, give us a chance (could be hours) to respond, and if all else fails walk away from the debate without attacking anyone.Originally posted by RightFromWrong:

Part of the problem is certain attitudes that keep cropping up, such as "martyr's complex."
