A Nasty Response.

This is a first for me so I guess I should get used to it because I am sure more are coming in the future. I try to be nice and kind to everyone in life and on MyLot. There are rude people everywhere, why do people like to offend others when they don't even know that person, or hurt someones feelings, when they haven't done anything to them. I am not going to make a big deal out of this. And I know I probably won't like some of the responses I get from this. I started a discussion about how I am feeling today and I got this negative response, why didn't this user just didn't respond instead of making a nasty remark like that, they aren't getting paid for it because it is to short. And they have a good rating too. What made them be nasty to me?

I'm sorry you got a nasty response. Some people are just mean, and then some use the Internet and sites like this to vent their frustrations. They would never say things like that in real life. I always think it's best to follow the rule "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."

well first let me say how SORRY i am for the person who HURT YOU! but just know that this is no different than being out in the streets a maybe even more exposed . so hold your head up high and walk with a purpose and never let anyone get you down! they don't even know you?????? so how's that gonna work???you can't speak of something you know nothing about................. that is really just some really bad smelling junk there, i try to be as nice and giving to all (really) but there are those days when you run into someone that's having a bad day and then you can run into someone who ruins your day. so just know that your not the only one who's had someone be rude as they could be....... and all i could do and can do is LAUGH! too much man too much ........................ PEACE

ah, hon !
i ADORE you.
and, yes, you are so kind and nice.
you are certainly not abrasive or seeking attention.
i guess it's "welcome to the dark side of myLot".
no one is immune from these types of people.
it's sad and unnecessary.
totally unwarranted in your case.
i was invited to myLot 2 years ago. i refused because that
person was having troubles with trolls. i joined this year
because she stated it had stopped.
well, it didn't and she's gone.
there's a nasty undercurrent here.
people admire themselves for saying exactly what they want
to whomever they want, whenever they want.
why didn't that person just walk on by ?
it takes an nicer person to do that.
if you don't like a post, or aren't interested, respect the
member enough to go to another member's discussion.
does it help at all that i think they are angry in general and
use this forum for a shoutbox? they don't care if the buckshot
hits an innocent person.
i'm sure it'll happen to me.
it's probably gonna happen to everyone who posts and starts
discussions.

I have read some nasty responses and heated debates. I have yet to get one myself. My time is coming I am sure. I don't understand what happened to you, meaning I don't understand why someone would do that. I guess it goes to show there are all types of people. I also don't get the lies. Why would someone post a lie or tweak something to get a rise out of someone? I can't see where that is fun.

hi chevee!
I feel sorry for you for feeling that way. I know how it feels, for it already happened to me for so many times. well, It already happened from all of us here. we just can't please everybody. so whenever we'll be making discussion, we should always expect that there's someone that will give us a negative remark. you'll get used to it. for as long as you've done what you think is right, and you never hurt anybody, well who cares for his/her bad remarks.am I right? so smile chevee! cheer up!.. you should get use to it. just ignore them. maybe they are just envy with you or with your discussion.

Unfortunately some people are just mean and nasty and they have nothing better to do with their time than try to make other people feel bad. If anything we should feel bad for them that their lives are so dull that they have to come on myLot and bash other people for no reason.
Glad it got deleted for you! WTG myLot!

hi chevee this seems like a really good discussion so if
someone is nasty to you here,they are really mean hearted.
you are so right, if the responder did not like your discussion
he or she should have just left, not left a hateful response
that was uncalled for. I think some people seem to just enjoy hurting others like its a power trip or somethingl

Don't let that bother you Chevee. It's all part of life here at myLot. Just ignore nasty response or better yet report them to myLot if really very offending. Don't ever to down to the level of that user. Just mark his comment negative and go to the next respondent. You cannot really screen the respondents to your topic. Anyone can response and it is up to you to handle them. Sometimes you will really meet offenders here but just consider it part of the game. Don't get so much affected because after all they are the one wasting their time and not you. They will not get anything out of their nasty remark not unless you get yourself so affected and then they get what they want! So cheer up my friend. There are more sensible and friendly people here and just concentrate on them, okay!

Hi Chevee, it's a great day - so don't let anyone spoil your day!
You ask, why are there people who enjoy offending others, or be nasty to others? They amaze me too - but if their only happiness is being mean and nasty, how pathetic! They must be very unhappy!
So enjoy your day, and happy myLotting!

Sorry to hear that you got a nasty response from someone. But I like your positive attitude. Your right absolutely right. You will find rude people everywhere. There are some who just enjoy being nasty and hurt others feelings. But the best thing would be to just ignore such people.
I know it feels bad when someone posts a insulting or nasty reply. But what to do they are least bothered about how the other person feels. When the same thing happens to them one day then they would realize how the others felt.
One thing i would like to say to everyone before making a nasty reply please try putting yourself in the other persons place and see how it feels. I'm sure after that you wouldn't feel like posting that comment. And after all we are like one big family over here. So respecting each and every member would be really great and health for the community.

They were probably in a bad mood and just like in every day life, took it out on you. I would probably find something sarcastic to reply back or just ignore them. Most people who are rude and put others down are usually insecure. Don't take it personally just try to laugh at them.

Please dont take it to heart. I think that people that are mean spirited because they themselves arent happy and they need to be mean. They arent happy so they want everyone else on their level or even below. Heads up and dont worry about it =)

I, too have experienced responded by some who didn't like my discussion. I just don't know why others could respond that way and hurt the feelings of others. I hope that, if they don't like the topic then just leave the discussion and proceed to the next. But, I have learned now what to do when someone does that to me. There's always mylot to listen. Good morning chevee.

Hi Chevee,
When I first came on to Mylot, the second week I was here I responded to one my friends and I had a respose with just a rude word in it, I was so hurt as well, no need for that sort of behaveiour, if they don't like it why bother to rea it, I think it is disgusting but what can you do? but just ignore and carry on you have many frieds here that loves and love your discussions so worry, you got us.
Hugsssssss.

Hello Chevee. I hope you're feeling much better now about the nasty remark. Don't let it bother you. I'm sure in the future, we'll probably get more of these nasty remarks. There are some people who like to get a rise out of other people. I really do not know what makes them do this but if you let them get to you, then they got what they wanted in the first place. Just concentrate on the good responses, you'll have more of them compared to the one or two nasty ones. Chin up!
