Kudos to our wonderful moderators

This is not a question. This is a huge thank you for the time and effort the moderators put into this great resource.
A few weeks ago I posted a question, kinda related to being in a blended family and the complexity of it. Some people posted anonymously and I thought they were fair responses.
It was posted to Facebook a day or two later and it popped up in my news feed. There were over 70 comments. I started to read them and had to stop because most of the comments were nothing short of vicious! I could hardly hold back tears as I read what people were saying about me. I only read about a dozen and closed Facebook and walked away.
By the time I got back to it the entire post was deleted. I'm assuming the moderators did this.
I have to say a huge thank you to them. Obviously there was things there I didn't need to see and I am grateful I didn't get to see it.
Firstly. Just remember IM's that imperfect means just that! We are on here for support, not to get slandered! Secondly, remember that when you write a post you can only put so much detail in and the full story won't be told.
I am always so careful not to judge. I think I've always been like this but even more so since this experience.
Cheers to our fantastic moderators. And cheers to you imperfect mums out there who really are imperfect and aren't afraid to admit it xx

I am indeed fine and dandy :)
Nothing a glass of wine didn't fix.
I think you're right which is weird because you'd think posting anonymously would have the opposite affect. But no. They're considerate.
I do love this page. It helps me feel normal.
