Name Calling from other users

Category: Zone BBS Suggestions and Feedback

Post 1 by DJAngel (Account disabled) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 17:49:07

My boyfriend & I know someone who is not respecting us & she is trying to say things my boyfriend never did or said. When I asked her to please back leave him alone she started calling me names & saying bad words to me for no reason at all.
I dont think anyone should be able to say bad words on here to anyone.

That's what the ignore feature is for. Just put the offending user on ignore and they can't bother you anymore. Hope this helps.

There will always be profanity and derogatory statements made about people on here whether people approve it or not. There is absolutely no purpose in trying to bar cuss words and profanity from any Internet application. Freedom of speech is universal.
Also, why is it that people have to call out people when they have shit against them? Many of us don't give a damn about your problems, especially when you whine about them. Take the nonsense off the boards, and stop wasting valuable space.

I dont put my problems on the internet, me & my boyfriend talk about our problems, but what we dont understand is why people want to say shit about me & about my boyfriend thats not true? I dont talk to many people on here, but people like to get in other peoples business. This is not fair how people say bad words & name calling for NO reason & nobody does shit about it.

if anyone can "do shit about it," it's you, DJAngel. instead of bringing such drama to the boards, why not try having a discussion with the person bothering you about your feelings? if that doesn't work, if it really bugs you that much and you can't handle ignoring them on your own, use the feature Anthony suggested.

Post 6 by DJAngel (Account disabled) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 19:49:50

I am not trying to bring Drama here, I am just wondering why people get away with things & my feelings are hurt that nobody gives a shit about it & how do we know the person is going to stop, what if they make many accounts on here?

Post 7 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 19:59:43

the only thing you can control, is how you respond. have you tried talking to them as I suggested, or are you just gonna keep ranting and raving about what trouble they're causing?

Post 8 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 20:00:01

You shouldn't let anything of the sort get to you. Also keep in mind that there are people who absolutely love to get a rise out of people, and by either whining or reacting to it, you give them exactly what they want. Bait.

Post 9 by DJAngel (Account disabled) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 20:02:25

Yes I have tried talking to them & that when they call me bad names & bad words for No Reason

Post 10 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 20:43:20

Stop talking to them. And, you say you don't bring your problems on to the Internet. Well I guess this isn't a big problem, then.

Post 11 by DJAngel (Account disabled) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 21:04:03

I dont bring personal problems with me on here.

Post 12 by write away (The Zone's Blunt Object) on Monday, 25-Feb-2013 21:07:25

Welcome to the real world, op. Sometimes, the real world is not a pretty place. Ever heard of life ain't fair? People will ridicule each other and start stuff for no apparent reason. This site explicitly states that no one's going to babysit anyone on here. If name calling was a lethal offense, we'd all be on death row by now. It's not the worst thing in the world. Is it crumby and makes you feel horrible? Yes. Is it really necessary or appropriate? No, usually not. But you tell us your side of the story while your nemisous might enter his or her reason for the verbal abuse that so offends you. Starting a board post about how mean people are when they say mean things to someone who maybe doesn't deserve it won't really solve your problem. It won't earn you much sympathy, because most of us know that this is an elementary complaint and that so-called name calling is not the worst that can happen to anyone, far from it.
I suggest you take your offender's words with a grain of sault. He or she is taunting you to insult and/or provoke you, and guess what? You're letting him or her win by wasting your time with them.
Ignore, ignore, ignore.

Really, its just online. These people are not worth your worry and energy. Seriously, grow some.

Post 14 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 10:49:14

ignore them.

not sure what you wanted from posting it here

Post 15 by forereel (Just posting.) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 11:41:13

Writer brought up the exact thing. What is the other persons side?
Because this poster never talks on the public side the name calling has to be a private thing. She does not post on the boards, or does not have a topic I am aware of where she is called names.
This had to be a personal chat, or private.
You can't blame the sight when you get in to a personal disagreement with another user. If you are attacked out of the blue as suggested you just ignore the person.
Since you have posted may we ask why the other user called you names?

Post 16 by DJAngel (Account disabled) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 12:58:04

I asked the user to please leae my boyfriend alone because she has been bothering him & I believe in sticking up for friends, family & loved ones... my Boyfriend would have done the same thing for me.

Post 17 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 14:01:53

And how has he responded? If I was dating someone and another person said things about me or the person I was dating, I feel as though it's something we both would just laugh at and not take seriously. If you are comfortable and trust your boyfriend there's no reason to get flustered about it. A good boyfriend would not give you any reason to worry, but there may be a lot I don't know, and I don't have to know. Just some things there for you to think about.

Post 18 by SilverLightning (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 16:12:52

Simple truth here, if you advertise having a thin skin, as you have hear, people will take advantage of it. Its how the world works. Stand up straight, grow a pair, and shrug it off. They're names. If they're true and you don't like them, change it. If they're untrue and you don't like them, they're just names. She hasn't cut off your hand or shot your goldfish. She just called you a name. Get over it, you're an adult.

Post 19 by forereel (Just posting.) on Tuesday, 26-Feb-2013 18:03:30

Ah, okay. You ask someone to stop doing something they were doing.
Maybe they responded negatively, but you approached them, and it was private. Because that event happened on the Zone, and you didn't get the nice response you desired, is that the fault of the Zone?
Should the community leaders settle all private disputes in the favor of the plaintiff?
You are asking for something unfair if you sit and think about it.
You jump in to a fight, get slapped it is your fault. You were sticking up for, or protecting your love interest. It is not the Zone's fight you started it, so now you have to deal with it or press that ignore button so the person can't cyber beat you up.

Post 20 by TechnologyUser2012 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Friday, 01-Mar-2013 12:07:30

just put the person on ignore and get on with life. Why is that so difficult? Don't think about them, don't react to them, don't let whatever they said bother you. I don't understand why you felt the need to create a board topic about this. rather childish, I say.

Post 21 by LeoGuardian (You mean there is something outside of this room with my computer in it?) on Friday, 01-Mar-2013 12:12:21

OK old man alert: gonna speak up on here.
I don't get the whole "cyber bullying thing." I mean, when I was a kid, "bully" meant throw the shrimpy kid down in the snow, give the nerd a swirly, knock the good girl's books and pretty things off her desk, taunt the good girl number 2 who cried at getting a B, offering to trade her your F for her B. Those types of things. And that wasn't often always real bullying: that was just called being a piss-ant little punk who needed someone to bring him down a notch or two.
I dono: call me the insensitive one around here, but I just don't see it. Of course I'd say use Ignore if you're a underage girl and being hit on or stalked by some older guy but other than that grow a pair. Or, whatever the girl version of grow a pair is.

Post 22 by TechnologyUser2012 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Friday, 01-Mar-2013 12:37:22

grow some tits. lol!

Post 23 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Friday, 01-Mar-2013 12:38:23

don't think there is a girl version of that, leo. chicks are often too soft to come up with equivalent terms for stuff like this. that's why I just use that phrase. lol.

Post 24 by forereel (Just posting.) on Friday, 01-Mar-2013 18:29:40

Yes. Bitch slap the ho! That is the girl term. Lol

Brainy chicks don't have tits, they have breast, so that won't due here.

Post 27 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 0:59:16

I believe your bf is cheating on you dj angel and i am sorry to tell you that but i really think he is. You need to break up and find someone else.

Post 28 by dale1982 (Veteran Zoner) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 6:57:09

i like it how half of the people on this board are telling her to grow some, or just get over it. the other half seem to be asking why she created the board in the first place. my question to the second lot is why did you feel the need to respond, if you thought it was such a worthless topic to begin with. probably because all of you have to put your 2 cents in on just about every board topic you see, whether you care about the original question or not.

Post 29 by Toonhead71 (move over school!) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 11:08:25

I have to say, I agree with the others in principle...the ignore feature is a good thing to use. I figure it this way, people are going to act how they're going to act and there isn't much you can do. Assholes will be assholes, and the very best way to fix the problem completely is stop visiting here, and only hang out with people who won't act this way toward you.

Post 30 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 14:34:53

DJAngel your Boyfriend is Cheating on you even if he says he not he really is. I have messages to prove it

Post 31 by forereel (Just posting.) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 16:18:26

That's heavy LovingAngel2013
to post publicly?
My question is why didn't you give her some slack and send that to her privately?
What is your motive by posting it publicly?
My questions are out of interest, not meanness?
If I had something like that to tell someone else I'd tell them privately, so why?

Post 32 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 17:30:46

Because I dont think she reads her private messages

the angels who apparently aren't angels, after all.

Post 36 by forereel (Just posting.) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 20:46:56

Guess not, about the angel part, but still? I'd have sent it private. Kind of cold to place it right out in public, true or not?
But okay, I received my answer. Thank you.

Post 37 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 21:39:20

I know he is cheating on her & it sad

Post 38 by write away (The Zone's Blunt Object) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 22:32:13

I know you are probably stirring up unnecessary drama and its sad.
come on, give me a break: he's not the first nort the last boyfriend to allegedly cheat on a girl. Must you rub it in three times on a public board, where you have no business spreading this sort of gossip?
Loving angel, my ass. lol.

Post 39 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 17-Apr-2013 22:49:50

this not a rumor

Post 40 by write away (The Zone's Blunt Object) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 1:16:15

This not a rumor, and you not a angel. But air out someone else dirty dirty laundry is no nice. Kahpeesh?

Post 41 by MAS (Generic Zoner) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 7:06:39

dribble dribble, wipe that spit off the keyboard please. I disagree with everything written here, I wanted to be in the RAF but lost my sight, it cheated on me with a dog.

Post 42 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 9:04:44

I definitely agree. this shouldn't have been aired publicly, no matter the reason you try to use to justify it, Loving Angel.

Post 43 by forereel (Just posting.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 11:43:57

No,it doesn't look good.
I wonder being that she has these messages to prove this was she the person on the other side?
If not, why make someone hurt in public possibly? If so,, being she's the other woman, how does that look?
The question would then be, did she set him up and make him fall, or did she get mad with him, so decided to punish him?
Lots of questions.
If I really wanted someone to know I'd have discovered a private method to do it, or if I couldn't, I'd have left it alone. These things have a way of settling themselves.

Post 44 by LeoGuardian (You mean there is something outside of this room with my computer in it?) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 12:16:37

Or did it simply not ever happen to begin with, and it's a case of character defamation. she's said nothing to make me believe it's credible. Just saying it happened means nothing, and certainly posting it on a public board further compromises credibility.

Post 45 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 12:29:09

leo is right. saying you have evidence isn't credible, in and of itself. you actually have to have it, but from the sounds of things, loving angel probably just wants to start trouble.

Post 46 by Jack Off Jill (why the hell am I posting in the first place?) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 14:16:31

Though it shouldn't have been said, some people shouldn't be saying jumping on her for "airing out dirty laundry". Because it has been done by yourselves, yes? Though I am not justifying this is ok, I'm only pointing out don't be a hypocrite. The name calling is a laugh, just get over it and move on.

Post 47 by MAS (Generic Zoner) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 14:33:51

dribble dribble, wow I wish sometimes freedom of speech wasn't allowed. can't believe my family fort in the second and first world wars just so I can write I disagree on a waste of computer space such as this board topic.
anyways I think that Jelly fish are right bastards

Post 50 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 16:03:03

so, just cause the OP supposedly has no friends on here, loving angel, you think it's ok to trash her? wow. what a shame.

Post 51 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 16:07:18

Well, judging by post 49, I think we would assume that has some anger, jealousy or resentment towards DJAngel, but I could be wrong.

Post 52 by forereel (Just posting.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 17:16:17

Sure you could be right Ryan.
Now Loving Angel, how do you know I'm not her friend?
I personally don't believe you know her well, and that makes Ryan right again.

Post 53 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 20:11:57

she has no friends

Post 54 by forereel (Just posting.) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 21:01:18

So, this is also why you have posted, because she has no friends? Want to kick her some?

Post 55 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 21:18:12

I am not her friend

Post 56 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 21:33:28

she has no friends

Post 57 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Thursday, 18-Apr-2013 23:34:55

Yes. And the fact that you continuously put her down makes people want to be your friend, for sure. How mature of you. Way to make yourself look fabulous.

Post 58 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 20:59:03

Post 61 by write away (The Zone's Blunt Object) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 21:53:13

Loving angel, what a contradiction. I thought angels don't have personal vendettas against other angels. fuck me if angels are really this vicious.
seems to me that loving angel is really a hateful bitch. lol.

Post 62 by write away (The Zone's Blunt Object) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:21:54

O o. I'm seeing a bit of brainless activity here... who wants to bet that both angels are one and the same? one angel is scoring the other soem attention by being mean to her. erm... herself...
Loving angel and dj angel are one person. multiple accounts, community leaders. look into it.

Post 63 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:31:31

thats not true, I never met DJAngel & dont know who she really is. I know her boyfriend though

Post 64 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:38:36

You don't know her, yet you say she has no friends. And even though you would never admit that you are the same person, just with duplicate accounts, there's still a chance. The community leaders will take care of this. Hopefully.

Post 65 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:43:03

I'm also curious to see if maybe, DJLias is also the same person. Just a second ago, the LovingAngel account logged out and immediately after DJLias account came in.

Post 66 by dj lias (Account disabled) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:43:33

There is no way that DJAngel & LovingAngel is the same person.. I know there real names & so does the staff.

Post 67 by dj lias (Account disabled) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:45:29

The Staff knows our real names & the IP Addresses so there is no way we the same person

Post 68 by LovingAngel2013 (Account disabled) on Friday, 19-Apr-2013 22:59:20

Only Staff knows IP Addresses & they know peoples Real Names.

Post 70 by chelslicious (like it or not, I'm gonna say what I mean. all the time.) on Saturday, 20-Apr-2013 8:46:39

they even write similarly.

Post 71 by forereel (Just posting.) on Saturday, 20-Apr-2013 14:08:55

I'd be really interested. I don't think DJ and Loving are the same, but the other 2 might be. I have a reason for thinking that.
If I'm wrong, and that is always possible, I'd have to scratch my head, because the Angel has a serious issue.
Guess I'd have to think that over with a stiff drink. Lol

Post 72 by DevilishAnthony (Just go on and agree with me. You know you want to.) on Saturday, 20-Apr-2013 14:47:46

Sorry to spoil the fun, but I put an end to the drama. I'm pretty convinced that Angel and lias were two different people, but that all the girls were the same girl. In any case, the fact that she's logging in to all accounts is more than obvious.

Post 73 by Runner229 (I've now got the silver prolific poster award! wahoo!) on Saturday, 20-Apr-2013 15:11:03

Do what ya gotta do. That sounds logical as well though, that the person could have been doing that.

Post 74 by forereel (Just posting.) on Saturday, 20-Apr-2013 21:29:57

Than I'll have to have that stiff drink and scratch my head some. If one person logs on to several accounts it is against the terms, so they'll have to fight to get back on.
Mental, and that is why I'll have to scratch my head. Some interesting private conversations as well with the group except the loving angel makes me say all I've said.
Long live the Zone.

Post 75 by Toonhead71 (move over school!) on Sunday, 21-Apr-2013 15:14:39

If you have more than one account on here, let alone any other site you are one very very sad individual, and should get immediate help. Serious issues going on there. Hell, if I went on here and acted like that I wouldn't have any friends either. That's a sad state of affairs.
