Anytime and glad you now agree with me Lee

The Forum Rules were designed and put into place so that they would create a welcolming environment for everyone, not just the strong-minded, and openly opnionated folks, and not just for folks who can spell and use proper grammar and punctuation.

Every single one of you agreed to those rules when you made an account here. If you never bothered to review those rules, perhaps you'd like to do so now and decide whether or not you'd like to stay, because those rules, in the interest of all members, are going to continue to be enforced.

There is nothing noble or righteous about sitting in the safety of your home, behind a computer spouting insults and criticisms at a person whose condition you know nothing about. In fact, it's quite cowardly. I dare say if some of you said some of the things you say here to folks face-to-face, it would at the least get your face slapped, but most likely your behind kicked into the middle of next week.

Personal derogatory jibes are disrespectful...yes I agree.

Truth, Sister ... Bless you, Robin ...

"The lack of respect I have seen over past week makes me sick to my stomach. I can not believe sometimes this is an Adult Site. The childish games, name calling, and belittling of others really pisses me off.

How some of you can sleep at night amazes me.

We are in the middle of war, the biggest economic crisis we have ever seen, and should be compassionate toward one another, YET some think they are better for whatever reason.....

When you can walk in someone Else's shoes and see life as they do, When you are so perfect, that no one compares to your greatness,
When you have no wants, no problems, then you my friend are God.

Until, then learn some manners, show some respect, and compassion for others."

Kojack, I think you said it better than I could have and in less time and words. Everyone needs to remember the moderators set the rules and can break the rulebreakers when they want to enforce those rules. People's feelings matter and although they may seem to bounce back, you can't see the look in their eyes and don't know exactly how they're handling what you said. You can make or break them and cause them to do their worst, depending on how they're feeling. Would you want to be the cause of a life-altering moment for the worst? Think about how you'd feel if it were said to you. Thank you Scott!

Anytime Linda glad you saw my point

Loved the point you made. It was precise and perfectly phrased. You're very welcome.

Hopefully this thread will get some people thinking about their post and the drama they incite. Have noticed this over the past few months.

One can hope Red

I applaud all the mods for making this a place of true brotherhood with our fellow human beings. Life is way too short and uncertain to be hurtful to others. If you treat others as you would like to be treated yourself, there would be fewer problems in this world of ours.

Thanks Robin and Sue

I think everyone agrees with Scott and those that disagree, need to rethink their lifestyles.

I hate to say this this way. it don't matter what site your on, disrespecting some one is somthing that will always happen, it's just how the person deals with it. topic's like this and many others will be posted as long as any dating site is up. You could be on here for 30 years and this topic will come up. Just my thoughts, i think in most situations. there a lot adults on these sites that need to grow up and not take everything so personal. I mean, if you can't deal with simple comments on the net. What will happen if your actually face to face with somone? I'm tired on hearing how some will say, well some people are sensitive. Grant it, there are, but at the same time people that are, don't need to take everything to the extreem on one persons comment. It's an adult site. At least try to act like one.

And people who are on here need to grow up and learn not to say mean and spiteful things just because they can.

If it happens, why let it bother you if it's not true? I just ignore people like that. As far as people neeing to grow up, yeah, that is true, but as long as your in this world. Everyone is going to run into this once in a while for the rest of our lives. so, either we laugh it off or we can site and dwell in it. I chose to laugh it off and go my way.

But what if it is true and intentionally said to HURT the person ?

I understand that, but don't you think this has happen befoe and will happen again in our lives. It's how you chose to deal with it. I'm also thinking, is an issue i have delt with and if not, maybe it's something i should take a look at and move on from it. So if somone had used somthing that is true to heart me. then i know that that person is not somone to deal with and maybe if i'm sharing with somone. I should at least know who i'm talking to before i do. other words. I don't share what i know no one needs to know and if i do. then it's on me if somthing happens.

I find it mind boggling that as adults some folks are not able to state an opinion without attacking/insulting, yet the folks who are being attacked are being told to grow up.

It's the ole saying. Were going to meet all kinds.
