Topic: New members and how they... | |
---|---|
I'm curious if you saw the emails she was sent. This person sounds like they tend to over react. Not that people don't do things off the board differently. I am far more romantic. Some would say too much so.
Did they degrade her? Make her into an object? It sounds like you think she should not have left. What would you have said to her you haven't said so far? |

Shadow I also agree wih you. When I joined a few months ago I posted a in forum, though many members welcome you and tell you to post in a forum and just have fun. Sometimes you are made to feel like an outsider, or a thread killer. So I can relte to your friend. It is not easy when you are posting a thread where everyone else has known each other for a while. Your comments either get ignored or someone has a rude remark or smartass answer when you are being serious. You have to learn to ignore those comments and keep going.

Shadow, this is my favorite thread you've ever posted. You cannot be more on target.

Sounds like JSH needs a war room of sorts or a kill Kenny thread if you will. JSH should cook up a bogus kenny profile that people can go in and be as hostile as they want because its not a real profile. Trouble is, who gets to be the voice of kenny? I used to take people in the forums personal but I guess I just realized that some people need to lash out to make themselves feel better. As far as the emails that women get i'm not really sure, maybe its time for moderators to crack down and start banning people for good. Its a tough call because sometimes people want to flirt and pay compliment but there is a line between innocent compliment and blatant pig! Thank you |

This is a really interesting topic. And I refuse to call names but I have seen the type of behavior mentioned myself, sadly mostly out of the women. While I will say most of the people I have met are great. Some seem to think there is only a limited amount of attention to go around and heaven forbid if some newcomer interfers with that. Thier posts will all but be walked on in the rush to get them off the page, and you could cut leather with the cat claws that come out. I luvs ya guys and dolls but this isn't high school nor is it a popularity contest. It is an open forum for people to chat, share opinions, and hopefully make friends. It is open to EVERYONE, new or old. Share gracefully~

I've found better company with the few than the many anyway. |
