It's been really an upsetting day..

Philippines
July 4, 2011 12:23pm CST
Maybe I should have hold myself and think..I should have settled down and think... First I had some angry comments on some mylotters lately, probably because I completely reacted to the situation. though i have already apologize but it seemed it went off again when some one was bad mouthing mylot, with that I shouldn't have put the link in the first place. now, that topic's gone (sorry to those who bust in there). I will do my best to cool down, maybe that other guy was right, I should have been more patient. but once in a while, we loose our cool and act differently... These are days that I wouldn't probably don't want to happen again, when am supposed to be off when I feel not having fun... I guess a Bad day, but it's late in the morning...

Chill! Nothing beats being calm and cool when you're in a heated discussion. Don't let your emotions over run you. It will cloud out on your sensible thinking. Is it just you or just the weather turning hot and cold? I guess you should have hold your horses better dear LetranKnight! You better get yourself a nice, cold iced tea to suit you up!

Hello Agent, I am actually alright now, and the admin notify me why he deleted the discussion, so i understand why. I had other bad moments on that day besides that in mylot or any rogue lotter. normally i wouldn't react but i guess the cool inside me has melted at that time. have a nice day.

Before I respond to doubtful topics I look around to see if any seasoned users have responded and even then I get notifications informing me the topic responded to has been deleted. Never mind. I don't think there is anyone here who can say one hundred percent whether a topic is a guidelines violation or not.

There are many 'seasoned users' who do go and respond on discussions even though they know that they will be deleted. There was a link on the one posted by Letran and by posting it he was helping it to gain visitors but that did not deter many of us from responding there so that our opinions on the topic were made known to him. It is not all about earnings here for many of us.

allknowing I am aware that "newbies and not so new look at your activity with a keen eye" but only admin can be certain whether a topic will be deleted or not. The only times that I am 100% certain is when the post is a promotion (contains a referral link/promotes blogs or personal sites/contains a shortened link/contains a link pointng to an article by the user or one that earns when it gains views etc.) or is a plagiarised and in those cases I do indeed make it known.

It would be nice if a statement "I know this will be deleted" is added each time you respond to topics which you know will be deleted as newbies and not so new look at your activity with a keen eye.

Letran if AuntD asks you to count to 10 before hitting 'submit' next time, will you promise her that you will do so?
• Philippines
4 Jul 11
Hello Aunt D. I guess, i was counting slow a bit. I hope no one put a spell on me or something

yes and once the submit button had been hit, that's the "point of no return". I made that mistake when I was new and you can never bring it back, so I'm much careful now.

Chill, Letranknights. Don't let them get into your nerves. Well, everybody reacts differently to some comments on discussions. But when some would really be so provoking you couldn't help but react violently also. However, that will not allowed by Admin. Should you like to see how i also reacted to a provocation, you can read my discussionS today , I WAS PROVOKED , UNAUTHORIZED TRIP and I ASK FOR AN APOLOGY. I am sure you can relate.
• Philippines
6 Jul 11
Hello Simplyd, I have responded to those discussions of yours, I'd probably never going to accept any more of her offers if she did do that again. No, the reason why the admin deleted it because that troll was getting page views from my discussion, he couldn't delete the link so he had to take out the entire discussion. with that i made a mistake so i understand.
@SIMPLYD (90722)

So, that's what happened. I guess, next time you should just be cautious.

hello LK, I felt bad when I received the notification Oh well even how much we know the guidelines there are still some wrong moves we can do which is unexpected Don't feel bad about it charge it to experience I told you to calm down
• Philippines
4 Jul 11
Hello catch, Even if I was calm I think the discussion speaks for itself as a violation. I understand now that such topics never should have discuss because it's something negative and probably the site is now more on the positive side of it. any kind of entertaining something negative is probably not good for the community

Hello letran don't feel bad about yourself it's all fine, maybe you're just having tantrums and i totally understand when you hit me on the face. :) hahaha I feel that way too sometimes, just be nice to those people whom you reacted so much, I know you can do better than that. Keep up the the sense of humor you got! :)
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
Hello nurseclare, This is the first time i've ever felt so bad that i couldn't avoid.maybe there is something deeper going on in me besides being just upset. something about me is about to burst, but i hope it's just the way i reacted to the situation which either i am reluctant to do it or hated to do it
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
Okay, it's all good. you've done your part to control your temper. And hey would you mind me asking, what discussion was deleted?
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
I've read it and I think it's his fault! What a crap on the thing he did that, why was he speaking against mylot. It's his damn fault! And i don't believe for whatever he says, I think he's just making issues. just HATERS.And how was it related yo your discussion? Are you afraid you'll be deleted too?ofcourse that won't happen.You're too nice and you're a good mylotter! :)

Hi, LK. I am very surprised to see you're upset already this morning. Hmm... I guessed I missed a lot about you last night and whatever may that cause of trouble. Just like everyone who has pointed out that we all have bad days, we all have bad days. There are some days that you're the hydrant and some days that you're the dog. It will always be up to us how we will react. Most of the time, when I encounter a heated response on my discussion, even though I want to get back to that person, I just ignore it so that I could not ignite more of that snappy person. Walk away or ignore it. You should know yourself not to stoop to their level. We are "human beans" (lol - very cute term from Hatley)and we sometimes lose control of ourselves. But that's the entrance of how lessons are learned. And then we learn how to keep our cool.

5 Jul 11
Hello totally pretty That couldn't be helped, i wouldn't get upset like that night if i didn't saw that topic. besides, it's probably history now and no wouldn't be interested in seeing such that. I really laughed at Hatleys' discussion about beans. anyways, i will do my best to keep it cool
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
I do not know what to say Let, since I did not had a chance to read that topic. However, there are times we did some things that we only realized we made a mistake there after. And it is normal to feel confused and upset after that event. You will passed this day Let. You will not forget that event,but you will just move on and get over it. I have been there many times and I just have the same feeling now. What i response to you is what i am telling to myself right now. I am just calming myself over the things I said and done. We have to let it pass.
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
Hello grecy, It seems that when ever emotion takes over, that's the time we realized it after wards that we made a mistake. well, I guess letting this out now makes me able to forget more because i know some of you will understand me. anyways, thanks for you're responses and kind understanding. have a nice day

I think I must of missed the whole discussion. No worries. You shouldn't feel bad just learn and move on. We all have days lke this. those are the days that you just go to bed, get a good rest and start over in the morning.

Hello sid, There are times that i couldn't help it. perhaps these are one of those times. It's just i couldn't expect to arrive at it like this. i hope i can get off mylot when things just gone bad

I am also having a bad day, but not in mylot, in real life and that is why I am not very active here today. When I am having a bad day, I sometimes find just getting offline and doing nothing helps, that is if the perp who upset me is not around... So, maybe next time you feel like you are getting upset, get off line and take a breather, that does help me..:)

That's good, though if you are not too upset, you can vent here, there are many people with good listening skills and advice too..:)

Hello carmel, Probably one of the main reason i was so upset was because I was interrupted in my mylotting when ever i feel the hype of being in mylot. I feel sleepy but not as mad or upset as I was a few hours ago.. Don't worry I will do my best to stay away from mylot when am very upset or mad.

No harm done. I hope by this time you are not feeling bad anymore. We all have our moments and I have to admit I also have bad thoughts when I read the link. Let's all just go back to our sunny disposition and hope we will have more patience next time. Take care

I really could not remember him. I cannot even recall if I added him as friend or not. But one thing I am sure of, he has not been here long enough to get understand how all these work. Believe me, I am not 'blind'. I am pretty well aware of the hardwork and the risks here (there are, you know!) Maybe he is the one who is blind because he's too busy complaining. Or unlucky, because he does not want to be with us
• Philippines

Hello Rainegurl, Can you imagine some one who hasn't been here long enough. I don't care how intelligent he is, I don't mind if he has rights to call what ever to our admin or site. But calling US "BLIND"? only just because nobody agrees to him and he's a sicko. he's only one sided and speaking because of his own personal frustration.

dear LK, Don't worry my dear brother. We all have bad hair day and not everyday is fine sunny day. We understand about it. Keep cool and relax...take a deep breath How we wish we can freely express...as long as we don't curse eh (uhmm)

uhmn...well,yah maybe because even ranting in civilized manner is still a rant... so,to avoid more issues,better leave it
• Philippines
4 Jul 11
Hello Jaiho sis, Yes, you're right. I haven't had a bad like that for a while, so i guess it's pretty much normal. well, there's nothing wrong with expressing in a very civilized manner even with a bad mood. but not to the point of cursing some one. probably best to leave it or not respond or comment to it.

Letran, I guess it's just human reaction to react back in a not-do good manner when something of value to us is attacked and . I remembered that I was once in your situation and it took me days to realize my mistake and at the same time, figure out what to do for the next time. We can't please everybody here and mylot and mylot cannot please everyone of its members. Let's just concentrate on doing a good job and for the people who complain without justification, it's their loss
• Philippines

Hello Jeanne, Indeed that it's human reaction that made me also provoke into getting upset. but that was before, some how this isn't just some post mistake because i was having a bad off line as well. mylot can please me that's for sure.

Hi there LK It seems you have this series of "negative vibes" or "mad" behavior lately. Well, except for that discussion about your chat with God. I have no idea who blow off your head again, but I think Yeah, you are right. You have to cool down a bit. Just shake your head and stretch your arms before hitting that "Submit" or "Post Response"...Count in 20 if you can't cool down in 10...Peace brother!

hi letran okay so you found out you are a human "" as one child put it to me and human "beans" do occasionally lost their temper. now you are aware of it so relax.we all have as that kid put it "lost our tempers caue we're human beans." I am sure he misheard the being part but he was right we all are human and humans sometimes do err.

Hello Hatley, I know am human but this is rare that i would loose control. thanks a lot for you're support and it's a good thing you didn't respond onthat topic either. it's been a while since it happened.

Apparently, I missed all the action. You're one of the very proactive members here on mylot and I guess that this has it's extremes. I know that writing and responding involves measures of creativity and since you're a very passionate person when it comes to mylot, your love for responding has bitten you back. Having said that, I hope you don't feel too bad. As I've said, you're one of the proactive members here and that's obviously a great thing. I hope that this experience enriches you as a person. Keep mylotting! Keep writing!

Hi Knight, yes we all have our bad days cause we are all human, I think what sets some people apart is admit that we just had one, apologize if we felt we have wronged somebody because of it and later on learn from the mistake guess you meet the criteria so I think all will be just fine sooner or later. Oh about your discussion, good thing cause I wanted to react and go support your side but I just had the gut feeling not to, perhaps it's because I was having my bad day too, in fact I was only able to make 2 responses and can't seem to think, well it's 1:57 am and I just woke up cause I slept away my bad day, perhaps I will be responding now cause I'm feeling well already.

Hello Louie, I hope that is the last for this year or my reputation will be ruined. probably because it's late in the morning again and i haven't really done much except whine about this last discussion about a rogue. yeah, same here am also feeling sleepy but i need to finish this now or i might never finish it
• Philippines
5 Jul 11
Well I guess it happens to us most of the time. There are things that you really cannot control no matter how hard you try. You can just relax and enjoy posting here in myLot and maybe find new friends that you can talk to. We can learn to be patient and that does just not happen over night. You may also try to remain calm during those situations.
