    Hi Issaac! First off, I'm so sorry you had to deal with any kind of negativity on your posts- it truly is the worst. That being said, we are making a huge initiative here to keep Hometalk a positive and supportive place to share your projects and ideas. Under our guidelines, we do not allow negative, mean or unconstructive criticism of any sort. So pretty please help us out- when you see one (on your post or another's) simple select the "flag" button to the right of the comment. (See screen shot attached). This is anonymous, and will simply make the comment "under review" and hidden from the thread. We are then alerted and take care of it from there. This helps keep negativity at bay and let people know it is not allowed. It also keep from comment arguments erupting! In regards to Facebook, sadly we have less control over the comments there since it is a separate social platform outside of Hometalk. Please don't take any rude Facebook comments to heart, the real comments that matter are from the people who engage and take the time to comment on Hometalk. I hope this is all helpful and informative! Feel free to message me with any questions. :) Happy hometalking!
