Yesterday I went and marked all someones responses with a negative...

Well at least you got a lively discussion going. It made me think of the saying that to err is human, to forgive is divine. You get points as far as I'm concerned by being honest about it.

What are you Catholic and this is the confession booth? Hahahahaha! See, if you had gone and marked all of her comments with a negative and felt good about doing it without any conflicting feelings whatsoever then you wouldn't have suffered any repercussions... like your own rating going down, or the need to post this confession. I once went through someone's posts for a long time back negatively rating every comment he made where he was being a condescending a$$hole - trying to make others feel ignorant and stupid while he towered over them with his imagined superiority, although I also rated positively the stuff he posted that was inspired. But I felt like I was on a mission and I allowed myself that indulgence, therefore my energy was not split. Nor did I require the approval of anyone else for my actions... good thing too, because if I required that everyone approve of everything that I do I would be in a HEAP of sh!t!!!!!! Fortunately I do not rely on the opinions of the others for my guidance. Your post here makes me wonder why you sent me a friends request though, since I am a blatant swaggering braggart!

I think it took a lot of courage to come here and admit to it and take the flack you've gotten here...lol! I wish I'd read the post so I could form a better opinion about it but if this member was abusive and/or insulting I really can't blame you. The way I take the TOS is we're not supposed to give out negative ratings just because someone disagrees with you or debates or argues a point if they do it in a respectful and civil way. I very rarely give anyone a minus but I have on occasion when they've been truly abusive and obnoxious to me or someone else. I'll only report someone if there's a very, VERY clear violation because I've found it usually doesn't do any good to report someone. Anyway, I don't think it matters now whether you did right or wrong, if it was wrong you admitted to it and said you feel bad. I don't think some of the nasty tags here were necessary, but that's just me! Annie

Everyone has a right to their own opinion! I thought in this day and age we were all allowed to have our own and not to be punished should it differ from that of others. I love reading ALL the differing opinions on here and that is part of the fun of it and I would never punish a user should an OPINION differ from mine. Very sad

That's to bad that this happend I guess we all go through it. There seems to be alot of that going on in mylot lately from what I hear. Mylot has lost alot of good people because of this kind of thing it's sad but I try to not let it get me and move on letting myself have a good time here not worry about what others think or say about me. Also if anything let mylot admin. be the one to do the docking of negativity of what people say and do in here for it will be on them not you. They are watching and if they haven't caught it they soon will we all just don't think they do but they do. Have fun and ignore one's like the one you came across. May it get better for you have a good day.

I feel a feeling of pity for your friend, really. Some people around us are just wanting to try their best to be sincere for once, but instead, all they get is shoot-backs and insults from the others who are just so insensitive and childish. We really ought to look at ourselves, and mend our mistakes before it overrun us, one day.

don't feel bad if someone comes off like a pure a-hole i give them a "-" it's not too often but I have. I'd bet every member here has given out "-'s" at some point, thank goodness we have a rating system so we can get those a-hole's lol

I don't know who you are talking about but I'm guessing it probably was someone just being sarcastic if no one responded negative to her. I'm guessing a long time member whose sarcasim & wit we have all gotten accustomed to. I notice that you have not been here all that long....I really think you should have refrained but i'm sure not much harm was done. It takes a lot of negs from many to really have an impact on someones rating. In the future, if you don't particularly care for a certain poster, the best thing to do is to just stay clear from their discussions. just some thoughts for you. take care.

Some people do need to be put in their place, and some people are beyond hope. I give kudos for doing what you thought was right, instead of following the herd, but I gotta admit, the quality of posts and comments here are far below that of other discussion boards, so those types of childish posts are almost to be expected, and it's pretty much the norm to tolerate it, it seems.

I was told that if I have nothing nice to say, then say nothing. But in some cases, I feel like my blood is covering my brain, and then I have to say out loud what I think - mind you, not always with a positive outcome. So, I just decided, that if I don't like someone, just ignore him...very hard to do it. So, don'rt feel bad - once in a while, everyone of us has a burst...

hahahhaha. A lot of immature people is like that. They love to brag about themselve and talk and talk and talk about themselves. I know a friend like that. and it really drives me out of my wit. What I do when he starts to talking about himself is if I cant change the topic, I excuse myself and find someone else to talk to. I am quite rude but its better like that than cutting him off or saying things that is a lot meaner than that. I dont blame you though.

Well I guess she deserved what she got. There is not reason to be like that on here. We are all here to make new friends and earn some extra money too. There is no room for rude, igonorant people on this site. We all need to work together to help each other succeed.

Some ppl think like that let them think like that one day they will know reality

I am glad you've vented!!! Feel better? :)

Dang, now if she had given a logical and rational explanation of WHY she was so much better than all of us.... I have been known to do a little negging now and then myself, though it's generally directed at abusive responses or totally off topic responses. Anyway you can come neg me any time, I don't really care about the silly star any way!

Some people just don't know what humility is and anyone that brags about something doesn't realize how they may come off to others. It's great to be blessed with good things in life, but they lose their worth to the person if all they can do is brag about it. Sometimes, because of the bragging, they end up losing the good things and things begin to take a turn for the worse. People like this usually have to learn the hard way about humility. It's just one of the many life's lesson that we all experience one way or the other. If you saw it for what it really was then don't feel bad. One negative response won't kill you, but being you know that maybe it was the wrong thing to do it was just a lesson for you as well. DCMerkle

she is in blind that means she is feeling she have been getting the good response to her discussions.one day she will know . there are lot people in mylot who are getting good response to their discussion............
