Crazy_Charlie I read this thread and identify with your experience in adjusting to BabbleWorld. As a new person how could you, without knowing the styles of these posters, assume anything different than what you did? Instead of being supported as someone defending an individual who you apparently thought was being attacked in a vulnerable emotional state, you are sanctioned. Then, after people explain some history and dynamics here, you apologize and try to reiterate your motivations only to be sanctioned again. Been there, done that.
It's like you stumble on a couple fighting in front of neighbors. You suggest to the angry man that he find a safer way of resolving his differences with his wife only to provoke everyone, including the wife and neighbors, to turn their attack on you, the stranger. I hope your block won't discourage you from returning.
