Deedee123x: Why do some people feel the only way they can relate to someone is by always having a smart word or cruel word to say....what is wrong with their social skills that the only response that springs to their minds is to be cruel and belittle others ..where is the sincerity and genuinity. .....is it considered a mental flaw how some cannot just be kind and sincere and think the only answer is to be cruel and unkind??
It's internet unaccountability...and it's not just here. People say horrible things to each other; treat each other horribly on the internet because they are unaccountable for their actions...and it's spilling over into how we treat each other offline as well. People in general have just become more rude and intolerant. The answer? Don't follow suit. You do you and don't take the trolls personally. I mean, why would you care about what someone like that thinks anyway? Let it go.

Everyone has their idea of what constitutes banter & friendly rivalry .. unfortunately , being an international site, some comments get lost in translation.

Ito my nature to look out for those who are on here sometimes facing a ten to one battle...and not enough said on the side of the bullieday person. I don't believe in standing aside n watchin it all..sometimes I can sometimes I cannot. I saw an instance of it this evening and couldn't not say something.
I'm by no means perfect I'm by no means always nice but I'm always first to say sorry when I'm not. I won't stay silent or be silenced tbh I think bullyingt should never win in my book.
Rant over and it's nothing against u..thanks for ur comment

Hi John thanks for commenting and I'm all.for fun for the teasing n the banter and all that..I can have a laugh as good as anyone and this forum is great for it n its all very lighthearted at the very best of times.
Deedee123x: It was way bitter place 1-2 years before.. so now I see all such comments very normal..[/quote
Which is a sad state of affairs isn't it that uve become so accustomed to people being horrible for no reason n u now think it's normal
We can't change others and we can only ignore their negativity. I also don't like people insulting other. believe me I was also attacked by people many times in past just because I asked something they were like I am from India thus my mentality is like that. started with population, poverty, girl child killing,rapes...(as I am the only one responsible for all India's problems ).

Just the cruelty gets me....sorry for the rant...
no you have a point it gets to personal sometimes but I thinks when your here a while same as myself one can have a very rosy pic of what it was like before and I think that's because we were kinda green first while we were here it kinda sucks you in all the banter and we understand now its not all harmless

No I agree with you Pete we can show another side to ourselves when on the Internet. I have had one major go at you once and I did apologise to you for it and was really sorry for taking it out on you. I'm still learning about myself which I think we all do really.....I do get quite passionate about seeing people abused in a real nasty horrible way...maybe I'm not cut out for this forum.
I do really enjoy you and ur banter I think ur really funny and lighthearted and I see that ur a lovely person I think the real.person can always be seen through even on here.
Might be my last night on here after this...think I will take my bow and leave it to the thicker skinned people to enjoy and comment. Maybe I do judge too harshly wud be something I'll think about for sure.
Thanks for leaving this thread on a nice note Pete. Goodnight and take care x

You can't take it to heart on here.
If somebody annoys you, yes you can attack back, but usually it gets you nowhere except intertwined in an ongoing battle without end.
So your best bet is to avoid that person, and their blogs and posts.
I know you say it is about other people being abused, but there is really nothing you can do about that. We are not moderators. We are just other users. Yes, you can say something once off, but an ongoing battle has no end, and only makes the forums more uncomfortable for everybody.
You can see other ongoing feuds on here I am sure. Sometimes they are fresh ones, but often they are historic, from long time members.
There are some people I find absolutely disgusting because of things they have said and done, especially to other more vulnerable people, but as I say, I am not a moderator, so all I can do is avoid them. Not everybody on here is a nice person, no more than everybody in real life is nice. But here, he can show the nasty side easier.

Thanks for that Molly I appreciate it. I do love the easy going banter and the teasing and Messing....it's all great fun.
I think it's best to avoid them and just stick to my kind of people!!
Maybe I need a big fat chill pill Thanks and take care
