My FH wants the groomsmen and himself to be in jeans, i love the idea . Our parents not so much . Our wedding is at a barn in texas so i see it fitting lol . Thoughts on this? I posted a picture of the look he is going for

    You weren't defending yourself. You:

    Told others not to post

    Told others how to post (which you have since done again and I flagged)

    Participated in name calling

    Nobody else has violated CGs except YOU. Yet you seem to think we are the ones who are the problem. Hmmm.

    Amanda it's not a matter of not being liked, its that you need to avoid being offensive to people. There's a difference.

    Then why ask for an opinion in the first place, Amanda? You obviously cared enough about what the forum users of WW thought to make not one, but TWO posts about your wedding plans.

    But why go to such lengths to make yourself unlikeable? Everyone gets feedback they don't like sometimes. Part of being an adult is dealing with it by listening and asking questions politely and then considering what you want to do with that feedback. Name calling and sarcasm just make people write you off as a hopeless cause, which I'm sure you aren't.

    Yeah, I feel like this is hopeless.

    So instead of ignoring what you felt to be petty nonsense, you felt the most logical step was to tell people who could/couldn't post on your thread and name-calling?

    That doesn't make any sense, Amanda.

    I asked why they were posting if it had nothing to do with the topic..and why they were posting if they didn't actually have advise . I wasn't aware that asking questions were a violation

    Everyone here is in a similar situation (planning a wedding) and everyone here has offered you advice by weighing in on the question you asked. How a bride treats her bridesmaids is never a petty issue because they are your nearest and dearest. And even if that was "nonsense" it doesn't justify you name calling and being sarcastic when people are just trying to help. It's not a forum that is going to blow rainbows up your skirt. It is a lot of people who, if they see you messing up in a way that effects your guests or wedding party or you, will point that out so you can consider a solution.

    And again with the statements. You just don't learn, do you?

    ...except you did...hence all the flags...hence why a MOD posted that they'd be speaking to you to give you a warning...

    ...I agree with @Jacks, this is pointless.

    @Jay: Then she re-asked the same questions that got flagged the first time.

    OP, CGs say you can't tell people how to post, not to post, or to leave the post. That includes doing so via implication.

    You just keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.
