Well Aztec, I hate to burst your bubble, but I have some very good news that I am not about to post on this forum. I know in posting this information, it would only lead to me being pissed off at others. Some people can't look past another persons past to see things for what they are.
Like I said, some people are happier to see others miserable....... just as they are.

True little witch. As a young child I was taught, that if I didn't have anything nice to say, don't say anything. This does not mean that I shouldn't point out any harm to someone that is there.
I guess what it all comes down to with the critism, is that a person giving it, should have at least experience in that area before advising someone on that subject. No one wants to have a persons finger waving in there face and expecting to heed advice when the person giving it hasn't any experience on the subject.
I had said "some posters". There are a great many posters here who have many life experiences and as such, thier advice carries some wieght. But there are others who, for one reason or another, can't stand to see happiness. They would rather make themselves feel better by giving advice where it is not needed or wanted.
I don't know, if I see a poster that wants advice, that's one thing. But somebody giving good news to share with others, should not have to explain there actions or defend thier decisions.

When there is more than one person basically saying the same thing on the same thread, it turns from constructive, to annoying
1) Are they saying it the same way?
2) Do they have the same intentions?
~Aztec
Does it matter??? Negativity is negativity, in any form.
If someone gives critisism to another, when they have no experience in that area, wouldn't that be annoying?

Hey Obi, while I agree with the gist of what you said there is a differance between criticism and constructive criticism. Criticism is merely meant to tear down while constructive criticism is meant to upbuild. The motives behind each are entirely differant. I, myself, can usually tell the differance.

Thanks obi, I think I'm grumpy this afternoon.Why do I bother with this crap? All I wanted to do was post some happy news. Instead I get this stuff. Well some of you have screwed up your lives and fully know exactly what you did to do that. Congratulations. Some of you have screwed it up repeatedly. Congratulations on that. It still doesn't make you an expert.
AHMEN!!!
Congrats to you and yours !!!!
Nah, just defending your turf...completely understandable.

It's so sad sometimes to see people question anothers happiness. There have been posts made about good things happening to our fellow posters here. But instead of people showing support and happiness for there fortune, I've noticed the opposite. Posters questioning good fortune and happiness. Isn't it what all of us want, good fortune and happiness? How would we feel if someone else questioned the good things we have in our lives?
I've noticed that some people, not all, can't stand to see others happy. Why is that? Is it because it's reminds that person, how unhappy thier life is? Are they people who are happy being sad or depressed?
As a general rule, most of us here don't know one another on a personal level. That being said, how could any of us give advice or point out possible errors to someone we barely know? If we do know the person giving advice on a personal level, then they surely would have heard from friends the things posted questioning thier happiness.
I guess you could say this is a rant....sorry. For myself, I've spent enough time being unhappy in this life. Now that I've found some happiness, I hate to see other peoples happiness belittled or trivialized.
Happiness for most of us here, is hard to come by. When there are people who find it, I am VERY happy for them!
GOOD FORTUNE FROM THE CLOWN!!
