That's probably the part of the 'net I hate the most - nobody is real, nobody matters, nobody gives a damn. It really is an alter-ego thing people have going, I know damn well that no one would invoke some of the verbal actions I've read typed towards me, were it to my face in the real world.

Isn't that part of the beauty of the internet though?
I know I wouldn't say a lot of things i say to people online in real life. And I'm not even talking about bad things. Things such as simple advice on relationships, or chats about religion. I would never talk about or open up as much as I do online as I would to some random stranger on the street.
With that being said, I do understand what you're saying, but you have to weigh the pro's with the con's.
Peace

I'm glad you are all here.
I'm also glad we have such nice dedicated mods and staff who put in so much time to keep the order around here- they do an outstanding job and they they give so much of themselves!

My point is that rash of people suddenly posting and asking if they should be here??????
Maybe i'm being unfair and blaming us, when it really isnt. I just have doubts, and when i see those posts and the member then goes away, it bothers me-it just makes me wonder "WHY"

I realize i'm just one person with a view, but WHY CANT WE ALL GET ALONG????
And be civil?
I think its time for my grim Betty Davis avatar to go up. It reflects what i feel in my heart.
Come on, i know there are so many wonderful people here from all over the world, lets make the best of it, huh?
