Looks like Ra and me.

Ra · 05-12-2008, 04:07 AM

Ah...It's as though we were made for each other in there... Beauty and the Beast. Of course, if anyone else calls you beast Bull, I'll rip their lungs out.

EDIT: Fancy I did my 4Kth post about you and me. This is a clear sign of who my real milestone in here is.

Ra · 05-12-2008, 04:18 AM

Aw, shucks...

I'm afraid Krang is going to behead both of us for all these slightly off-topic public displays of affection.

On the other hand - we have turned this heavily hatred-manured thread into a love-pulsating fairy-tale. So yay for us.

Ra · 05-12-2008, 04:53 AM

Oh, indeed. Indeed... (Don't kill us! Please!)

It will be the fairytale told to the n00bs of the forums before bed time.

**Jester** · 05-12-2008, 05:59 AM

Hey you two.....SHUT UP!!!

J/K I love you guys, too. <3

Students have a problem if you tell them that, because they recognize it is rude.

Sadly, online bullies have yelled at me to shut up and shut the (insert second or third ugliest word in English language) and calling me horrible names because they were holding against me things that happened over a year before. Those same bullies did NOT remember things THEY did much more recently than that. Even their best friends reprimanded them for that- but since in their uber left winged minds only ONE thing counts, not much could be done.

It has not happened anywhere else. And certainly NOT in the Drome. In other communities, if someone is mean to me, the moderators take care of it quickly and other people apologize to me and tell me the bullies are the ones who are wrong. It was just that one lone exception that I am trying VERY hard to forget- but me being so rancorous by nature, it is difficult.

Yes, we all remember THAT unpleasantness.

It happens everywhere. I mean the reason I left college is 'cause one guy hated my opinions on everything and made my life a hell. Even the lecturer said it didn't seem as though he was making an opinion, he was just being nasty to me.

I expect it everwhere I go now. But its only hapened to me once or twice online.

Thanks for the reponses, guys and gals. I guess I understand that the safety of internet-anonymity makes it easier to lash out at someone. I would love to have some more mature discussion topics, but I understand if mods and admins don't want to have to put up with it. It could very likely be a handfull to keep tabs on.

Would you mind elaborating? Unless I get explained what I'm not understanding, I might make the same mistake again. That's where the ever-loved SHUT UP technique shows its weakness.

I'm very sorry to hear that, man. This is one of the reasons why it bothers me. Some people have less resistance to this kind of thing than others. I hope everything has fallen back into place for you or will soon.

Aww, the Ra and Sewer Bull back-and-forth warms my heart. Group hug?

Shut Up

Does it echo in here?

This thread's cute. *Subscribed

This guy just doesn't get the VG section. I think a warning description like Krang said is a good idea. I seem them all the time on religious and political sections. This way no one can b*tch.

One of my best friends had to leave my secondary school after 7th grade because of a bully. After my friend left, the bully stopped picking on me- even though she had picked on me all those years as well.

Sadly, I have been picked on way too much. And sometimes, your only option is to leave.
