Hi everyone, wow! I've been reading throughout and see a lot of posts about ppl who have many ID's. I want everyone to know...I am a bonafide NEWBIE! LOL. I hadn't been a part of blogs... ever. Except for reading them on myspace. This is my first time at blogging and I think it's really cool to have a place to come and express yourself openly.
I was also reading some heated posts to a member about leaving the community. Wow! I don't know what it's about, I think I need to dig further if I have the stomach for it.
In my opinion I feel people do have a right to speak their mind, however they should realize when asking others opinion, they need to be prepared for the worst.
With that said, I've been in friendship groups where this sort of thing became an issue and it never ended well. Soon the whole friendly environment was turned upside down. One person's knee jerk smart ass post or response started a war, one left and in principle so did the next, until it wasn't a haven of friendship anymore. It was a group of stragglers who hardly ever posted or had any real thing to say. Unfortunately, It died. :(
My point is, even though we have the freedom of speech it is sometimes best to exercise self control and tact when posting or answering a personal attack. I only mention this because I've noticed a circle of good friends here. We all know there is one or two in every crowd who like to stir things up. I've been there in the heat of battle to defend myself and others, but learned the hard way it wasn't worth what was lost. :(
As for the multiple ID's...WHY do people do this???
