Actually, I started a discussion about one celebrity,I showed my feeling about him,I said"Do you think xx is sort of pathetic?" Well,I just open a topic,show my feeling,and asking for your advice.
But there is this guy who obviously is a big fan of this famous person,well,it seems that my question just offenses him so much,he wrote comment:"there is no way he is pathetic,you are."
Well,I don't want to be sensitive or mean,but this really hurts me a little bit.People sharing ideas,supporting each other,I think this is what mylot should be.You show your opinion here is totally ok,no matter you agree with me or not.But you should never say something terrible about others!
I must say I am a little angry about this,hope it will never happen again!

I Try to understand the differences in opinion from one mylotter to the next when at all possibly. If I feel that my opinion is not needed or will further damage the discussion, I clip my tongue and back away from the discussion without a single post.
I do very much dislike when others decide to post such hurtful things to another when they could just as easily countered the person's discussion by creating another outlining the things that are good about that given ideal or trait.
I am sorry that this has happened and I hope that it does not happen again.
The open-ess and freedom of mylot is both good and bad, and you have experienced the bad.

It's usually better to do that anyway so a big riot doesn't break out and people start rating you negatively only because of your opinions. It's foolish but it happens.

Well, that can be a problem here I feel is sometimes people do not STOP and think before they post back in a discussion. And we all have our opinions, but when someone posts something like this, I think they are uncaring. I look at it this way, myLot is a diversified group of people from all over the world. We all have our own individual tastes and likes and that should be OK too.
If I were you, I would just throw it over my shoulder like a grain of salt, and move on. You might just need to watch how you start a discussion next time to not give someone the time of day to consider posting something like this.
But this is a Good topic, and since this is an open forum, unfortunately, things like this happen. Just move on, and have Fun myLotting. I know I do.
