Linda, you need to learn not to take everything posted on here as so personal. I know it's hard. Believe me, I was in your spot many times on this board. If you play into it, you become a bigger victim. But also know that if you insult on here there will be many that will jump on the opposite bandwagon and slam you back...and there are some very good slammers here, lol.
No one here "hates" you and we didn't go out to attack you either. We understand you have a different way of expressing yourself (your long posts/rants) and had explained on several accounts that they came across as ramblings and asked you to make sense or "shorten" the ramblings. Your writing styles definitely differ from most on here and you know it. We, the board, joked about it and you retaliated and started with personal attacks on my hair and body, and a lot of backwards compliments.
I posted my "blow by blow" account of my struggle because I do consider a lot of the members here my friends and they too have their own stories to tell and although you might think they are just "horrid" people with nothing but hate...they are not, they are human. 99% of those here really do care about other members and express so. Even those who want to known as "hard guys" will at the very least send a PM stating their concerns and well wishes. And if you took a minute to check the other boards, you would notice that me posting my battle brought a lot of those "hard guys" out and showed that they are in fact only human. You stated that you wouldn't be able to post a daily overview of a battle with cancer, but for me, it made it a lot easier to deal with.
Anyway, I hope that with this post you get a better understanding of both the board and the people that post here, and maybe allow you to be able to contribute to it more positively and enjoyably.
