    Default Why are people mean online ???

    I know you guys have gotten these cocky rude emails from guys , just some random dude on myspace even .

    I get them alot but I got one last night and today from the guy who calls himself Juan Carlos ....gag .....He started off super nice so I answered his emails then all the sudden he starts insisting that I read his myspace page and he keeps asking me questions that I am sure are on my page (so like he must not have read mine )

    Anyways I sent him a joking email like "whats the big deal with reading your page " and "let me go check what mine says"

    I am I dunno know him and I dont really care about what he has to say but he got really snotty with me ......said I was evading his questions and tells like good luck .....he was just rude and lame and like I dont even know him !?!?!

    I told him that I am stay at home mom and that i do some underwear modeling and to leave me alone because I dont think hes a very nice person .....

    I try to have this happy zen thing going on , Id ont bother people too much ....so it just bugs me when people spend their day trying to ruin my good vibes .....I just think people suck mostly ......they have no lives ....u should see his profile he is SOOOO hung up on himself , its sick ...hes pretty lame ...clearly

    Exclamation Re: Why are people mean online ???

    There are people who seem to only feel alive when they put down and mock and deride and even openly threaten other people online. It is a sad fact of life and trust me when I tell you that there other boards that make this one or MySpace and Facebook combined look tame by comparison. Take a look around Stardestroyer.net as an example one day if you do not believe me!

    Because they know if they try to be that stupid or ballsy IRL they'll eventually get their ass whooped.

    Because they don't have to face the consequences of their actions, literally.

    I think you should stop engaging these people. Like, for the homophobic guy, I would've reported him and then blocked him. No need to message him IMO. And as for the other guy, the second he started being weird I would stop talking to him too. And if he asked me to stop talking to him, I definitely would! You shouldn't let people like that waste your time.

    I utilize the block function on myspace when I get a random rude email, I usually say something scathing back and let them know that they are blocked (and then proceed to block them).

    People are mean online because people are mean... to answer your question. There could be various reasons... they're drunk and angry, they have low self-estem, their gf looks kinda like you and just dumped them for their sister... or, they enjoy being an asshole and it's easy to do online because there really are no repercussions.

    Because they're cowards and it's easy to be anonymous on the Internet. And like Miss Jessica said, they would get their ass kicked if they tried it IRL.

    Seems that there's been an egghead article written about virtually everything...

    Jerks of the Web
    "We've all run into obnoxious people on the Internet. But these are the kinds of idiots who make you feel like logging off permanently.

    Scammers, stalkers, online antagonists ready to pick a fight, folks who are just plain mean -- what is it about the Web that turns people into jerks?"

    Yeah I totally dont actually ....I know it may have read that way but really like the homophbic guy , he had been on my friends list for awhile and i didnt notice anything like the B4 so I was like "r u 4real??" I have gotten mad at people before only to find out later that their profile was hijacked , ya know?!! So anyways thats basically why I did that in that case


    other times honestly I am just hurt and I want to say so

    OMG ME TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats exactly what I do , I tell them off and I end with a by the time you read this I have already blocked you so dont bother responding

    sometimes I dont even tell them that they are getting blocked because I enjoy the thought of them writing to tell me off for nothing
