....which is actually the only reason come on here and post the things they do. To get reactions.



I'm sorry, I don't think I got that. Who comes, who posts and whose reactions did you mean? :-S

The emphasis there is not on the reaction of a mother.

Quoting Daydreamer:

Look at what's happening here - some members were unhappy with what the site was like, a poll was introduced to investigate the feelings of TC members. Although the result was in favour of those who didn't mind what the site had looked like, decisions were made to improve the site. Yet, still the minority who expressed their discontent in the poll keep complaining about the poll not having been anonymous. Please, do realise that although you were in minority, changes are being introduced. I can't understand what is bugging you about that...


Well said

Some people just like to provoke people to get reactions. They like to belittle what others have or are or believe in to make themselves feel better. There is a BIG difference between the people who are using the site and ALSO have discussions with different views regarding religion and politics etc. and the people who have come on with ONLY the intention to provoke with no genuine interest in Turkey at all. It's very chidish.

I would just say that often times, people don't post to get reactions, but they still get reactions... but of course, we would never dare to blame those who have hurt feelings, right?

I think it's important that members are able to voice their opinions to Admin/Moderators in private so that they can keep their political/religious standpoint private. Many people on the site don't mind others knowing this information but some people do and have worked hard to keep it private. I hope members will agree that everyone should have the right to give their examples, if they have them, in confidence.



If you are referring to people being asked to give examples of anti-Islam statements, I believe the onus is on those who very publicly made those accusations to back up their statements just as publicly.
No one has said that everyone has to give examples and no one has been told they have to declare their religious affiliations.

She is clearly referring to alameda here. It's ridiculous to say that people don't have to publicly give examples of things they are publicly complaining about all the time and making accusations.

Changes were made. There is no onus for anything anymore...

it was discussed actually. it was not posted intending to disrespect anyone. The thread has stayed reasonable so there is no need to lock it at thias point.
