oh :( I feel so sorry for you

@NIARTIST pls stop posting about it and actually do something about it. If she is dead, sry for ur loss but don’t create random forums about it.

@NIARTIST, did you find her (body)?

@NIARTIST
So sorry to hear about Potla. I know it can be tough to lose a pet-- hang in there! My guess is that you really cared for that cat, and that means it probably had a good life. And if you think about it, "a good life" is the best thing that can happen to any of us :)

To those who are complaining about this thread:

"Spam" doesn't mean something that doesn't interest you. It's when people post those nonsensical, vapid messages that have no purpose/meaning/worth. It looks to me that this thread was created by someone who was seeking support during a difficult time.

I know a lot of people saw me accusing others of spam, and maybe they felt empowered to follow my example at any opportunity. If you are one of those people, please don't. I'm cognizant of how obnoxious I am when I go into hall-monitor mode, and I only do it when the forums are rendered unusable. I don't seek out spam threads to bully people. I take no joy from chastising children.

@Idk0011 I don't like to bring up lichess drama that doesn't involve me, but I think it's worth pointing out that you have been white knighting an account that was notorious for spamming, so you clearly don't really care about spam. Care to tell us why you really like to bully emotionally vulnerable people on the internet?

People were bullying me bc I stuck up for my friend. Big difference. Yes this is sad, but they will get over it eventually.

What a douchey thing to say. I don't know who is bullying you for sticking up for your friend, but the fact that you felt bullied for "sticking up for your friend" does not entitle you to act like an ass towards others who are going through a tough time. If anything, you should know that it feels bad and avoid bullying others.

PS: Is the "big difference" you allude to supposed to mean that you're thing is not nearly as bad?
