It seems that no matter what the topic may be. Some just feel the need to harass, name call and start fights. So lets see how long this thread will run before those people show up here, and so the same thing. I have many friends on this site, I respect everyones knowledge on any topic. when people interject their opinion. in an offensive manner without having any knowledge of said topic. The arguement will then be started. Let's see if a peaceful is in fact possible.
Pic any topic, there is alot of knowledge out their by the members of this site. I started a thread on Natural remedies and was attacked, I picked up where Hennery left of on th conspiracy thread, I was attacked again. This is obvious by all the deleted comments.
I admit I started I had some comments deleted, most where in rebutle. Doesn't matter, I refuse to argue of go off topic from here on out. if we all try to stay with in the rules of the forums, we will have a much more peaceful place to hang out.
I don't try to pick fights about anything!! In fact I think that everyone here in the forums are showing their true selves. I have noticed that when I create new threads they seem to disappear quickly, due to lack of responses. Am I complaining? No. Do I care? Not really. I can say that I find it dissapointing. The biggest thing about the forums is to get to know each other. I feel that no matter what goes on, be it fighting or whatever, we are all getting to know each other. Yes, it is aggrevating to see people insult each other, yet we are in cyberspace, so does it really matter? I take these forums with a grain of salt and others should too.
Do we not have better things to do with ourselves than to talk crap to people we have never met? Geesh, why cant people say whatever.....and just move on.
These are the things that we teach our kids.....Dont let it bother you, its just words.
Yet, people still must reply with crap!
1. Yes, its a free for all forum, feel free to speak your mind. 2. If you are going to speak your mind, please make sure it is in working order prior to posting!
Not hard instructions to follow.......
Heres a word to the wise: Words from mamma......"Kill em with kindness" try it....works wonders!
I've crossed that line, but many times I'll re read before I hit that post button, then forget it and move on. Emotions like that should never be posted.
I don't know if this will be proper comment. I have noticed that many threads do not stay in topic.
There appears to be private communication going on which has nothing to do with the topic.
I mean no offense but it often sounds like people are just chatting but the topic seems to be ignored in responses.
I try to stay within topic because I am used to discussion on a topic.
Please no offense intended but some conversations posted might be better left to e-mail rather than posted in topic.
I am used to discussion groups where people are going back and forth on a topic. This is generally literary discussion.
I am used to a writing group where writers meet. throw out an idea and people discuss it. In these discussions comments are confined to the topic. If someone wishes to talk to someone else, they do it by other means.
Secondly, to be a writer, and take criticism, you have to be very thick-skinned...just because someone criticises your work, or your idea, does not imply a personal attack...its the way to hone a generalization into a more concrete and specific semantic representation of what is in our minds.
To think of what you think you know as fact, and then think you have the right to be offended when people don't agree, is just plain narcissistic. There are others involved, and to continue in an "I'm innocent, its all their fault" manner is denying your own responsibility as a contributor. If you're so innocent, you wouldn't need to try to prove it to everyone.
"Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone."
I sorta agree. but in the absence of true chat rooms and an IM feature, sometimes, that is the easiest way to communicate with friends on here. I usually "try" not to make it a hi-jack.
On that note, hi there, Lionese....good to see you as always
