important information.....

[joclt22]

Thank you for the post.

I agree we have to check our spelling and that can be hard without a spell check. Even though I wrote a book and write daily articles, I find that I still make typo's and mistakes.

If this post was for me I will reply with this: I was not stating that people need to use spell check or watch their spelling while in this forum...or anywhere else for that matter. Who would I be to down someone for the way they spell? I have no right to do such and neither does anyone else! I play on Pogo with many different people who have difficulty typing so they use typing shortcuts. i It has nothing to do with watching how they spell, typos, etc. And the person who started in on joclt22 after she had stated she has a learning disability so makes spelling mistakes, really pissed me off! I mean seriously, would this person make fun of someone in a wheelchair, someone with Downs Syndrome...? A learning disability is a handicap and to sit and trash them shows what type of a low life they are!

Yes, we do make typos but for others to sit and literally trash someone for making a spelling mistake is very much so ignorant! But it's none of anyones business to be anyone that's here, Teacher! Afterall, this is but a mere Forum. And the bashing person states he's 41.....I'm 37 and he acts like he's so much more ancient than everyone else here by his references to them of "young ones". Likes he's really that much older to be trying to lay down the wisdom of life to others!

I normally would not comment on such a thread as this but it really sickened and pissed me off to see someone make fun and light of someone elses handicap. Even for us "young ones", we know how wrong that is. So in the end, is he really much more mature than the rest of us?? Nope, just more ignorant!

thanks you for what you said and i agree completely. i have ignored him but i had to put how i felt so this will be my last post on this topic......   remember everyone. you are who you are. no one else matters. if your happy with yourself and your life. who cares what others think. they are not living your life. you are! so make that best of it and stay happy! for people who try to bring you down and hurt you, wether online or in real life... use the ignore button! remember there is an ignore button in your head to.. just walk away and pray that they someday find happiness

Exactly and he has been ignored by me as well for a few days now. So let em "talk" til he's blue in the face. People such as he think they're so much better than everyone else.
I own my own business, am very well educated, etc. But I would never sit and act as if I'm "that much" better than anyone here, or anywhere for that matter. Afterall, this is the internet and other than the info we divuldge about ourselves, we do not know each other. And we damn sure don't have any right to judge others just because we may be fortunate in areas where they may not so much be.
And you're totally, 100% correct in saying if we are happy with ourselves, then not to worry how others perceive us. Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: "Having an opinion doesn't make one a B*tch. But the fact that I don't give a chit of others opinion of me, makes me THE B*tch!"

I have a family member that has a handicap, so when I see others making fun of those individuals, it really irks me. I just feel sorry for his GF that she is with such a loser! Ta Ta and be well

i LOVE that saying.. mind if i steal it? lol

What?

you'll find in life that often the people that taut the "love everyone" mindsets and "who are you to judge?!"

are often the WORST about tolerance and acceptance.... when someone else has a different opinion than they do.

a thread thats attempting to show people they need to appreciate..... and show..... education is met with paragraphs attacking me.

i find that laughable.

to the pro-disabled person above..... no, i dont laugh at a disabled person for being disabled.

i laugh when they do something stupid.... as i am laughing at yall right now.

 



tolerance and acceptance? i wonder how many have me on ignore right now?

Ok I know that this is a bit off Topic but I noticed that you are new just like me.  Have you gotten a pay out yet from this site?  Also how long did it take for all of the things you did to clear and become credited?  I have like over $80.00 still not Credited.

  I usually don't post much in here, but obviously that fellas parents didnt teach him much manners.  Arrogance is not a suitable virtue.  Live and let live.  Im 47 and can care less if the youngins wants to shorten words or use slang, I did it as a kid and my kids do it.  If you cant read text, than my friend, I fear your not near as educated as you claim to be. 
  A braggert as Ive learned over the years, usually dosent have a pot to p*ss in and wants others to think they do.  And yes, Im sure your mom thinks your the cats meow.   
 

VERY well said!

yes, i received a check for $59.25 some months ago. (i think oct)

a good 2/3rds of my attempts didnt credit either.... despite faithfully clearing cookies on each attempt.... AND i checked all emails (prepare to be busy doing THAT!)

since finding my way back, it appears the same pattern is in play.

i dont know why its like that, perhaps its the nature of the beast.

 

[jlb001]

to my new found friends....

its really OK not to like someone or something..... you dont even have to have a reason.

just as the "internet shorthand" irks the hell out of me... for no real reason..... you can dislike me as well.

you have my permission.

O.k. that just wasn't very nice. laughing at disabled people for doing something stupid is mean. i have a cousin with down syndrome and to the rest of the world stuff he does is stupid but he doesnt know any better. i would expect to see that behavior in middle or even high school but not in the adult world

This is an attempt for attention. A thread writer to get noticed. If you realize that you are doing more harm than good to your reputation within the forums. A locked topic this would have been from the moment it has gotten out of  hand. You are feeding the fuel. Remember the if you build it they will come. What also works is If you ignore it it will leave.
