I was led to believe according to the rules I received that this was a safe

place free from passive/aggressive and insulting attacks. The guidelines

spelled out clearly that a private message can be sent/forwarded to a

moderator with concerns. I am terribly upset that insults are being

tolerated and that my private message to a moderator was made public for all

to see.

I have received so much comfort from these groups and I am deeply saddened

to leave. At this point in my healing, though, I need a safe place free

from attacks. While the insults, such as " FAT " , were not directed at me

behavior such as this leaves me feeling vulnerable to being attacked

myself. I will miss these groups.

I sent this to all groups I am on but the issue only happened on one. I do

understand (as someone posted there in response to what was supposed to be a

private e-mail to a moderator) that I can delete the messages, however, I

cannot know before reading them that this will be occurring. I mistakenly

beleived that rules were in place to limit attacking each other and that

communication with the moderator would be kept private. I just feel very

invalidated by having that posted publicly and basically being told to

ignore the behavior. I need to heal from these types of situations

occurring throughout my lifetime and I don't feel safe when I see (read) it

going on here.

So I am very sorry to leave (and I don't want to) but I am fearful that this

will continue to be accepted and defended.
