huh not yet!!
Some people that come on here really do need friends in their lives, Have gone thru bad times/relationships what ever that brings them here looking for the comfort of friends.
Some that are just here for friends & posting in the Community So It doesn't matter what they look like.
There has many over the year that I have been here that have come in broken & healed & bloomed into wonderful people!
There was no reason to hurt her feelings like that.
Wouldn't it be sad if she did leave just for that reason??
There is one of our members that has many times & she didnt have a picture up for a few months, then she slowly came out of her shell & she is the most Loving Caring friend you would ever want to have.

:wink: Oh! & Hiya John, I'm Lisa, Welcome to the site!

Hi catchme_ifucan,

This post asked what peoples opinions are regarding the use of "icons" or "stars" exclusively for their profiles. This post isn't about me at all although a few as yourself have made it such.

It would appear that you are okay with people exclusively using "stars" pictures rather than their own but this is not the overall consensus. The predominant thought is that you should have at least one real picture. If I am wrong about your views then maybe you can take some time to explain your views on the topic.

If you will note in this post I have also stated that I understand why people could be hesitant to place a personal picture. It shows I do understand the possibilities. But I still believe that in the spirit in which this site was created JSH promotes having "real" people and real profiles and I am promoting this idea with this post.

I will answer you regarding your other issue... even though it not meant for this post.
"There was no reason to hurt her feelings like that."

It is your opinion that I hurt someones feelings. Only the person who I spoke to can actually say if your opinion matches hers.

When one looks at the post they can see the pointed manner in which I was looking to find out more "real" information. I also made it a point that I didn't think an Icons picture should be used to portray ones "persona". It was up to them to decide how they wanted to answer me. They could either seek to disprove my comment, approve my comment (which she/he did by writing "but i agree with your sentiment"), or avoid the issue (which was also done in my opinion). My further comments you can place whatever voicing you want on it. I have read it and can place the spin that it was angrily said..... but the realty is that I wrote it all in a relaxed tone and it was intended to be in a pushy humorous mood with pointed statements intended to look at the serious sides of things. I think its clear from my "basket weaving society" part that it could be considered funny to some. I furthered this with the Tranny comment (also intended to be pointed but humorous because I didn't really expect that the person would be) that I later apologized for... However, there was truth to this statement.... as I was seeking to find out more about this person (especially that which is real).

If you have some proof that I hurt someones feelings then please forward it to me. If you do not then please don't say what you have no proof of. Instead you can say, "I believe you hurt her feelings." This would be the correct way as it doesn't claim to "know".

Wouldn't it be sad if she did leave just for that reason?? There is a yes and a no to this question; Absolutely Yes, if the person is real and were "hurt" by my comments; Absolutely No if the person is a fake, scammer, or possibly... they take an assessment of themselves to think about why they hide behind a "stars" persona rather than their own and, accept/share their unique qualities as we each have done here. Hopefully this comes with a better appreciation for life and self. It is possible!

Regards,
John

If I am asked a question I answer it. What is your problem with that? I have spent several hours explaining the position I have on the topic including possibilities of change and how they occur. In fact, I tried to stop the post by saying it is now flatlined.

btw: You were the first one to inappropriately associate this topic to a post from another forum. They were completely separate and you were wrong for convoluting the issue. There is no one that can disagree with that fact. Did you apologize for that? No! You are wrong as I did not have any other motive besides to find out others opinions on this site about photo plagiarism!

So in response to your statement it really is about you getting over your wrong perceptions about why things are said or done. I won't say get over yourself.... I'll just say get it right!

John

Interesting: This post has received a ton of attention (something near 4000 hits) so apparently the topic struck a chord for many. I don't take credit for it... its the topic. Maybe it can get as many hits as the 4:20 post.... Nah! That wouldn't be right. bigsmile

Mikey "I agree with u Fresh why cant people come on here to enjoy themselves and not cause Drama for us"

This is hilarious because you are agreeing with the very person who created the Drama. Did you read her post?

Again the post was a question unrelated to anything else prior. She was the one who made it related to another post because of her wrongful perceptions. So I answered any questions regarding that matter because apparently it was not understood where I was coming from.... Again... Unrelated to the other forum.

It it creates a lively debate of positions so be it. But at least keep it well thought along its path.

Regards,

J

Don't read if you dont like repetition... Apparently Fresh doesn't understand what I wrote:

Yes Fresh you created the drama by your post. What is it you don't get about the posts being completely separate topics? They are completely unrelated. It is YOU who wanted them related and therefore your motive is in question.

"If you consider sticking up for my friend creating drama then so be it"... Do it on it's own forum..... Mine was related to others opinions about the topic... Not about another profile here. Again what is it you don't understand about that?

Freind? I didn't see you in her profile box under freinds and your not in hers either.

"Everyone is intitled to there own opinion as long as no ones feelings get hurt, when that happens its time to give the subject a rest for a while!!!"

Mikey, Who is hurt? Fresh? Who are we talking about?

I will say this: I ask for an apology from Fresh as she intended to inflame the post with drama rather than let people answer without regard to any other topic.

misty4ran,

Drama free life actually. I don't get how you propose to say that "I can see you like drama". You don't know me but you know what I have written. Can you show me in my post here where I created "drama"?

In this post I proposed a topic for discussion. Fresh related it to another post.... not me. She created the drama.

I held off asking for an apology much earlier... Now a full day later and she writes, "Get over yourself" after I posted to someone elses question. Again this is really a drama filled statement intended to make a bold statement. So now I ask for the apology because it was SHE who actually started that route not me!

Waiting!

apology's i thought was something someone felt they needed to do on their own because of their feelings , i wouldn't want someone to demand me to apoligize to them for my opionions , unless i felt i needed to myself , never the less a total stranger????????????

I didnt neccesarily meen you, but why keep hammering away at it when it is obviously upsetting people? fresh is like many of the ladies on here that are my friends and everyone elses too, and If I see one of them upset or feel like they are being attacked, i will have their back each and every time!!!!

How about 2009?

You view it as a personal attack. It was not and I explained that in my post! However, I did apologize. That's all there is to that. In fact, she has yet to state the same that she felt it was an attack so you are all alone on this trek.

Yeah! I am pointing out that I deserve an apology only for the fact that she was out of line for relating an unrelated issue.

Its not about being a "stranger". She did something wrong in my post.. Is there anyone else that feels she was correct for relating an issue from a separate post when it was completely unrelated?

Please tell me.. Otherwise she is alone in this.
