Yeah. and you don't even remember. You prick.

Hey, I remember most of the times I've pissed you off. About half of them were intentional. :D

Nobody goes through life without acting like a prick at some point. You yourself apologised for being in a bitchy mood and taking people's heads off a few days back. Let he who has not been a cock in public cast the first stone.

Call me a hopeless idealist (god knows I'm used to it from amicus), but I dislike writing anyone off as 'pitiful' or a 'dumbass'. I try to see their point of view, try to understand why they're acting as they are and try and create some kind of conviviality and friendly atmosphere, instead of ditching someone as a lost cause.

Maybe that makes me an idiot, I don't know. I just find it a little bit sickening that we'd have a thread on the AH started and dedicated to poking someone who's obviously not in a good place in their life.

I won't call you a hopeless idealist (not that it's an insult, anyway) but sometimes, people push you, and you push back. I'm not saying ideally you aren't right, but it seems this woman has gotten under a few people's skin. They're going to lash back, and until things calm down, they're going to be unsympathetic toward her.

More to the point, who's 672?

Q_C
 
Ok, look. I've been in and out of the AH for a month or so. Lately more out than in, actually.

So I skim through the threads I've missed and find 672 claiming everyone hates her? him?

I have two questions. WHO THE HELL IS 672??? And Why is he/she being such a piss-head baby???

I've been here the entire time, and I still don't know what made her so pissy. I've been refraining from making pot shots at her because I know from my own experience that when I feel similar, or when other people start acting like that, they really don't need any more fuel on that fire (plus I wasn't part of it, and that would be like jumping in the middle of a war "just because" ;) ).

I hope that all that she really needs is a cooldown time, I hope that she gets it and I hope that she feels better next month.

I didn't attack her....I asked her if someone had pissed in her cornflakes that morning.

She, predictably, got nasty....so I gave it right back.
Oh, ok. So asking if someone has pissed in your cornflakes is not to be precieved as either attacking or nasty?

Well gee whiz, I need a manual for these kinda things, cause it sounds as confrontational as anything to me.

So it's the usual sad story then, of two or more people convinced that the other one started it (whether it started there or earlier is irrelevant), everyone going for the jugular and nobody backing down, until shit flies in all directions. Splendid.

Sorry for being snarky, but these kind of things bug the crap out of me.

Which is the last I say about it. Peace all.

Earl, I'm not sure if you were around or not that night, but she flooded the boards with new thread after new thread, all of them obnoxious(which have since been deleted) - all of them either calling me names, or throwing herself a pity party.

Maybe I was harsh, but you know? I got tired of her habit of attacking vella everytime she was around. It had absolutely nothing to do with her being a newbie, and everything to do with her shitty attitude.

I was here, I saw. About two pages worth of crap threads, one after another.
I'm only new here, but I'm not new to message boards. I don't know, nor do I particularly care, what her problem was. That kind of behaviour is painful to other users, and a right PITA to mods who have to clean up after.
And from what I saw, it was treated appropriately.

Normally I'd agree, and I kinda do. But the person involved did this not once, but I think this last round wa the third lot of upset caused by the user in question.

I've seen many AH'ers being nice to them, trying to be constructive, friendly and welcoming and each time it was met with a hail of abuse.

I find it really sad and I really hope it was an exagerated persona, but if not I hope they get help asap.

it's difficult to be nice to someone who spews hate at you, and well, it riles some folks up to reply in kind, which I can understand.

right, last word from me too, let this thread die away now, it's a closed chapter. :rose:

672 -wish you well, love. take care, get help and learn something from all this, ok?

(just incase you're lurking :) )

honest people on social boards and forums.

Wow. Yeah I have half of Lit on ignore. I just can't stand some of Lit's jerk off's.

Who can guess if I was joking or not?

Stop beating a dead horse. Something to ponder: what kind of person are you really if you let someone you don't even know except through a message board seriously get under your skin?

Please, people. Get out of junior high. She had a bad attitude, the threads went away, and now, so should the talk about it.
