Can I vent/complain about things here that are not Bachelorette- or forum-related? Like about work, family, friends, back pain? Just kidding. giggling This forum is my fun place, and it is a standout from other similar boards/forums that I peruse. This is the only one where I actually enjoy posting on and reading on a regular basis.

This forum is FREE for our enjoyment, and they spend HOURS every day working on it. So far, we have repaid them by bitching and whining like the pathetic hausfraus Reality Steve thinks we all are.

Honestly, I think people should be forced to pay $20 for every complaining PM they send to our mods. This way the whiners can at least pay for the work they generate.

Love Me and San, you guys are saints. You must want to foe us so hard and ban the f*ck out of us! Thanks for all you do.

Awesome as always, Sushi. I would just edit to add "for every complaining PM or request for censorship they send to our mods."

I have stayed mostly silent and I am new, so I know my opinion doesn't count. But the people who came out of this are okay and friends.

Sean looks very happy and content, and honestly I love the Sean thread. Just a bunch of great people loving on Sean. I love Veg_out's Ryan thread, as she said it is a breath of fresh air in the Board Wars of 2012.

But Arie and Jef are friends. They seem to communicate and get along so why can't all of we? The negativity is so rampant that even just slightly snarky comments get taken wrong, by both parties, trust me I have been reprimanded by both Arie and Jef fans.

You think Jef and Emily will break up by Christmas? Great your opinion, and it was your opinion the first time I read it, when you restate it again and again it seems like baiting others to respond. You've been sleuthing forever, great! But some of us have watched this show and can read body language too, but are new to the board, so our opinions shouldn't just be squashed down. I see this season as different and I see Emily as different than most in the past. I can see love on my screen even when TPTB try to hide it. I was a Jeremiah fan on the last season of SHA and found this place because the Bubba love was so deep everywhere else it was no fun. Please allow the newbies to have their opinion too.

Jef fans (and I am one now, but didn't get there until I decided I was sick of watching Arie try to make Emily happy). Arie is a good guy, I like him, he genuinely fell in love with Emily, it isn't his fault that this show favors the guy who comes out of his shell quickly. He likes her and is physical, so why not show it? And if you believe all the junk RS puts in his column, but has never actually showed any viable proof of, then fine, but no need to put it in posts. Jef and Arie are friends, so would Jef enjoy you bad mouthing his friend?

I am enjoying watching the show. I didn't even like Emily on Brad's season and swore if I heard her tell the airplane crash story I was going to have to turn off the tv and run. But it turns out that I like Emily, she is funny and has some spirit. No she isn't going to bungy jump or do adrenaline dates, but then neither would I. She seems to like being a mom and is a little quick to temper and maybe inexperienced at adult relationships, but hey she is 26, at 26 I had just entered a bad marriage and was miserable, so the fact that she isn't perfect is okay by me. I don't like her with Arie, because I feel she gets too upset with him. The stupid Kalon thing, the Cassie drama, even her uncomfortableness with the family speaking Dutch. She doesn't seem to communicate the same way he does and I think long term it would suck to try to work that out. For me personally, hot chemistry didn't make up for having to say I was sorry all the time, and when I got tired of doing that things just got bad. Maybe I am wrong and they would have a great marriage, I don't know. I like her with Jef, he brings out a younger spark to her that is refreshing to me. I like to see Emily act like a 26 year old instead of a 36 year old.

And my final rant, I hated watching Jason dump Melissa, it was sad and uncomfortable. Molly was best for him and they seem to have a good marriage, but even for her she was the one he didn't initially pick. So yes, I find it sad that some people would be so excited at the idea of a live ATFR meaning she was dumping Jef for Arie, that would be sad to me. Just like if she picked Arie and dumped him for Jef it would be sad. So yes, I find the joy some have at the idea of the live ATFR being her dumping one for the other mean. My opinion, you don't have to share it.

Love_me and San have made a great place to come and sleuth, but it has developed into a place to be a fan too. As you get more people that is bound to happen. Some of the wise more experienced posters like Jeepers, Rich_LP and Veg_out have been a joy trying to keep this neutral and I enjoy all their posts. The rest of us (yes me included) need to just chill out. Don't like what someone says, use the FOE option (I only did this once) or just take a deep breath and move on (I try to do this).

Let's try to remember that Jef and Arie are friends, I can't imagine either one would like to read nasty things said about their friend.

Let's just all try to get along, please.

If you have anything you don't like about season 8 discuss it in this thread. As long as nobody attacks each other this thread will be left open.

I hope this thread will be the solution to the many issues between fans this season. If a post in the other threads fits better here then we will move into this one.

SERIOUSLY?!?!?

God people, grow the @#!*% up and quit running to mommy every time you get your nose bloodied...

How come I seem to be blissfully unaware that this thread even exists ???

Come on be honest - how many of you all have foed me ?

This board has so little rules we should be so grateful.

It is really hard holding back and not responding negatively to so many 1000s of posts that assume or glorify certain contestants or actions. I did ask Love_ME how to use the foe button but ended up not actually using it. There were/are a few that got on my last nerve but I found a way to skip their posts and opinions, mainly by staying away from certain OTT threads.

Many of you all have been a blast to post with and even if we don't see eye to eye on who we like have cracked many a joke or snark which made posting and reading fun. You'll know who you are.

Regardless, I have not used PMs as much as I have this season so that should tell most something !!!!!

Looking forward to the MTA now... the finale / ATFR really doesn't interest me particularly if Arie is history within the 1st 45 minutes or so seeing that Sean is dumped next week itself.

Happy Posting all.
