A privilege, not a right.
Treat it as such and refrain from being mean, regardless of who was mean to you and why.
Bad + Bad will never equal Good.
Got something mean to say?
Write it, read it, delete it.
Not post it.

I totally agree with you Fridays! This has really been getting out of hand...All of these mean posts are inappropriate...You know what you write before you post it. Just because you dislike a thread doesn't give you an excuse to be mean. Is it that difficult for some of these girls to simply exit out a thread they don't like? It's like a lot of these girls feed on drama....
Thank you ! and might i add that you can be sarcastic without being mean
Belonging to this forum means you find a living horse, beat it to death with a mallet. once it is dead, continue beating it for a few days. wait until the dead horse meat has turned into glue, then huff that glue. Huff that glue until you are high on horse carcass for another week.
After the high has faded - completely forget you have ever beaten a horse to death for about a month. Then declare yourself straight edge and a vegetarian. Then, after a few weeks passes, you start jonesing again. Then you see it: a new live horse - you find a new mallet, stalk it, and start beating it all over again.
jk maybe my metaphor is too heavy-handed. basically I think taking periodic breaks (everybody...) from CC, or finding the humor in it, would solve about 50% of what goes on.
MzStar is a good example. She smells out and lols at trolls way before any of us ever do. Everytime. She also doesnt get too personal but still is interested in the forum anyway. loveshooks and laurielegs both seem to read regularly but knows when to jump in and when not to. No beating the dead horse with any of them. Theyre not a part of any clique or groupthink, nada. theyre all good e-Zenmasters to try to mimic.
metaphors are great but... lets stick to the reality.
we are not 3 year olds to blur out " kiss my ass" to someone who we dont agree with.
period.
Want to act like a kid, you will be treated like one and be put in the corner for a time out.
and stop beating on horses, animal cruelty is not nice lol........
Amen, sister!
Its defiantly not a privilege or it would be members only.
But yes, I agree, being Mean is not nice.
I also anyone joining a forum to have thicker skin.
Once people take the time to actually READ the forum instead of getting post happy, I'm sure the veterans wouldn't be so annoyed. This forum didn't have so many random of topic threads until this year. I think its time some took consideration into how we feel about things too. After all, we are the reason why newbies decide to join anyway.
Everything that happened is the result of bigger issues slowly boiling over until things finally exploded. It's not like it was a sudden thing having to do with any one post. A lot of members who broke rules were baited into doing so.
I'm just looking forward to a fresh new era of CC, let's put this drama behind us.
this thread makes me lol and face palm. We are also *grown* women with thoughts, feelings, and heavy opinions. And as a GROWN woman.. I think for MYSELF and ACT on my OWN will.. not based on what someone else says I'm allowed to think in PUBLIC. We're not docile... like... at all. ::) This is the internet.. not Real fucking life.. so, really.
So basically..
think it..
feel it..
but roll over and be a door mat and say nothing? Uh... no? That makes no sense whatsoever.
"Better to live one year as a tiger, than a hundred as a sheep."
then make your own forum where u can be the tiger, blank stare..
this is a community, hopefully not a jungle.
hmmmm.... Does anyone smell cats?
While I appreciate this thread immensely Fridays, I can see it spiraling out of control due to last night's drama. Everyone is still hyped up so I'm going to close this thread before it gets nasty. Thank you again for all the positive replies within this thread :)
