If these comments are from people who are/were acquaintances, having a separate forum for those who have only met in person will not save someone from this cowardice behavior.

I respect Gracie's decision. And sending a big cyberhug her way.
That has GOT to be the worst person ever! How could anyone accept an invitation to someone's home and then turn around and trash them? UNBELIEVABLE!!! Gracie and her entire family are people who rarely come along in a lifetime and I am PROUD to call them friends.

I sincerely hope that Gracie will heal soon and return to here. This forum will never be the same without her! So many will never have the privilege of her insight, humor, and compassion if she leaves.

Many hugs to you, Gracie!

I don't post very often on here but always love to read your posts, Gracie. Do not let this person chase you away. You are obviously well loved on TOTV.

I thought about Gracie Girl all night and how much pain she is feeling now. I am thinking some of you people who really are her friend and love her should call her and go to her home. She is in need of moral support from her friends right now. Please make an effort to contact her and talk with her very soon. She needs to hear what is being said here as it might help her get through this. She needs to know how many people love her.

My heart really goes out to her and I feel so bad she has to go through this.

Default Topix

Topix appears to have no moderator. If Topix was a responsible site, they would be monitoring for cruel remarks made against individuals. It is hateful and wrong. Why is there so much anger in so many people our age? The lengthy attack on Grace was hideous . If you don't like her posts, ignore them. Smirk in private at your computer screen.

Gracie was very supportive when I was going through a rough time.
Maybe someone who knows where she lives could drop a rose with a card at her door with a note telling her how many posts on here want her back.
As for that other forum, I would like to those idiots in the nose.

It appears to me that when the TOTV ADMIN got serious about kicking off those who were doing personal attacks and changing the tone of the forum to mean that they got more adverts, nicer forum maybe equals more money. If this is true maybe the TOPix one will die for lack of cash. We can hope. Don't go there as every time you check it out it helps their revenue stream.

I feel so bad that this has happened to you, Gracie. I hadn't heard of Topix before but found the site and read the inane comments directed at you and a few other TOTV members. Unfortunately, it is obvious that the Topix forum standards are very low. I hope you will stay. You have many friends here.

I agree, the poster is not a stranger to us. However on TOTV we have Admins to keep us all in line. The "other" website is toxic, and best ignored.

Gracie, You are too much a part of this website to just leave. Those who know you know the bad stuff's not true. and who cares about the people who don't!
You could also consider slightly changing your name on this site maybe

I finally found the topic. WOW I must say, I want GG's autograph. GG your doing it right. There have been posters on TOTV that would fit the description on topic, BUT ITS NOT YOU. The way I read that long thread is it's only one person that feels you peed in her wheatees. There are lots of folks on here that could say they are leaving and the only reply would be. GOODBYE. Count yourself loved and don't you go no where.

Lou

P.S. I want to attend your next tea.
