Category: the Rant Board
Hi,
I'm posting on here today to just say that I know people may not like Skittles because of her history, but honestly it's not your place to judge her.
Everyone has a history, I'm sure that 80% of the zone has a history.
The zone has changed since I first signed up. I feel that people not all, but people do insult others, and don't really make the zone a place for others to feel as welcome as they could.
I mean come on, calling people sluts is just unneeded! Think of the emotional damage insults like that cause! How would you feel if it was you?
If you are so ready to insult someone then it usually means you've got some insecurity of your own, or your just unhappy withyourself, or it could be that you've got nothing better to do than sit on the zone allday day and night!
Just think before you speak, sometimes your words can cause more harm then you could guess. If you are doing it on purpose then it's totally fucked up.
Well, I said what's on my mind, have a good day Ray.
sound like you want a chance at her ---
Lol well be that as it may, he brought up some good points. still, I don't know why you bothered to write this on the board. In this world, cyber or otherwise, you will come across all sorts of people - and yes that's including calling people names and pure attacking for no apparent reason.
I'm not saying you're wrong for sticking up for her, but we all ahve to realize that this cyber world is just like the face-to-face world in the way ya get all sorts of people who just love to cause problems cos they can, will, and like you say, are probably insecure in themselves so have to try bring others down. It's the way human nature exists.
And yet another zoner is getting a board of their own. This trend is becoming very annoying.
Whatever happened to one on one conversations with people with whom you disagree? I guess that's old fashioned.
I'm not so sure if this kind of stuff should be posted on the boards. This topic should have never been created.
Well, I'm in agreement with the others here. This is a topic that frankly would have been best left un-created, if indeed such a word exists. As has already been pointed out, spite and name calling are hardly traits that can only be found on this web site. People say horrible and hurtful things to each other all round the World everyday and unlike here, they don't have recourse to an ignore feature either. If you don't like what you are seeing then either ignore the people saying the nasty things, or failing that, turn quick notes off altogether.
If you genuinely feel that something totally over the top and un-called for has been said, especially if you feel it is in violation of our terms of service, then you should contact one of us community leaders. That's what we're hear for after all. The one thing that you really shouldn't do is come to the boards of all places and spark up a debate, in which both the person being mistreated and the mistreater's could easily read and join in. That's just not smart. I'm glad to say that on this occasion, thus far at least, this hasn't happened however it easily could have done and then what would you have achieved?
Don't misconstrue what I'm saying by the way. If you wish to come here and vent your spleen at how petty, childish and stupid some Zoners can be toward each other then do so by all means. However naming names is what I have a problem with because in doing so you leave the potential to escalate the very situation that you are bemoaning and again I ask, what would that actually achieve?
Us community leaders are here for genuine complaints and believe me when I say that if we feel that people are stepping out of line, we will do something about it so next time, consider approaching us instead of rushing to the boards to start naming names please.
An exasperated community leader: Dan.
Good God now Karrie has a damn board! This seems to be a trend around here lately, I mean Garret has a board, Jared has 2 boards, Simbad the Sailor has a board although it wasn't titled his screen name or anything, and now this. And I'm sure there may be others. However I'm still waiting for mine.
Oh yes one more thing if you got problems with the insults from other users on this site then use the ignore button. It'll make your life a hell of a lot easier. And Karrie has the same option to do so herself if it bothers her so much.
I don't know why people create boards like this and say so and so is a... I mean if you think we're insecure, when we call each other assholes, sluts, aren't you insecure, asking for public opinion? Someone may be disliked for some reason, and it's not your job to find out who, why, where, etc. I'd just drop this board, inf act delete it since it serves no point but to take up space when people respond like the rant the person who used to be erie silence put up.
if a person knows the truth about them self, why take it to heart, you have the power and it's up to you to use it.
