Ha-Ha-Ha!!! I find it hilarious that this SU member whom I asked for a follow (since I'm following her and all...) sent me a mail and said: nope...first, i follow who i want..i don't need to be asked..second, i can't stand people who just send b#llsh#t links..i don't support online businesses... Ok, I get it. No need to be rude, ma'am. I find it funny that she exerted some effort and time and energy to reply to me rather than just ignoring my request. She must be real proud of herself. Anyway, I replied back and said..fair enough! Thanks! harhar!!

Okay then! Gosh yes if she took the time to reply she could have been nice about it. Or she can list on her profile that she does not support online businesses and for others not to ask. Interesting.

Hi my dear sweet friend! I did notice your disappearance this month. Although with me it has been later, and later in the day all month. Yes that was awful of her to do, as she forgets that if she is doing well on the site it is because of her followers. Good luck in Triond.

Thanks for your responses guys! hahahah!! Yes, yes indeed. You're right HWG! Actually, if she had put in her profile what her take is on followers, etc. I may not have sent her a request in the first place. Anyway, thanks to her I'm earning money now in MyLot through this discussion.hehehehe... Mtr! I am so happy that you were able to finish the 5 articles for this month. I counted them when I visited your profile! Now you'll have more time with us here.hihihihi...

Hello my friend! Oh my,she really is rude! I wonder who she is! Is she one of my followers? 'Cause you said in your reply in my discussion that you're following my followers. I don't personally know them especially the recent ones,they just follow me and when I see their profile is good,I follow them too. Never mind her my friend. You are far better than her. In time,you will also recieve some messages to follow them and I know you wont do what that rude girl did to you. Just enjoy stumbling friend!

That is pretty rude! She could have said it nicely or just ignored your request...I mean, it's no skin off your nose right? You can find other followers...why be so rude about it? Oh well, at least it gave you a little laugh that she took the time out to be rude lol.

Hi beingwell. Let's see, why would she act so ugly. Hmmmmmmm. Maybe she thought you were someone else. Or maybe she just dropped the bathroom sink on her big toe. Or maybe she just got mad at someone else that she couldn't reach so she took it out on her first chance. Or I know, maybe like me, she just got off the phone with this great big multimillion dollar company that messed her bill up again and she has called for the 4th time and they are still telling her she owes the money, but the bill goes up $100 more everytime they bill here when it shouldn't be going up at all and she can't get a good answer from any of the people she talks to there, so when she was going through all this, she happened to read your email!

Oh dear!hahaha! Those are the possibilities, my friend. It doesn't matter, though. I'm happy where I am. I may be stumbling in some of her links still. And that would be my gifts to her!nyahahah!!

Well,I think it would have been enough if she had simply refused the invitation politely without giving that rude answers because such a reply says about that person and her nature;I'm afraid it's inevitable not to meet such people online,unfortunately not everyone behaves nicely,but these are only exceptions,and they don't deserve anything but to be ignored.

She's rude but more than that she seems to be very unhappy with her life. Even if she can't return the favor she should not be that rude hah! She's filled with pride and that could kill her. It's as if she can stand alone in this world. To me she isn't funny but pathetic. She needs help actually! Ha!ha!ha!

Hi salonga. We are all different. I don't take it against her that she rejected my request. Perhaps she thinks that her network is really valuable or that she doesn't want her account to be spammed by other's posts. It's all good.hehehe.. She just needs some lovin', I guess!

I'm not familiar about stumbleupon but if accepting means getting unwanted notifications then I would perfectly understand the refusal. What I don't get is the way you're request was turned down. There's always a way of saying no without gettng rude isn't it? but then just consider the incident as her loss and not yours.

Hey! Yes indeed. Many people are easily mistaken etc etc with the words we say. Most of the time, we are just trying to be helpful but it turned out sour. I not sure why but some people are just very defensive and honestly, I feel if they don;t open up to learn a little, it gonna be tough for them. Anyway, have fun and don't let such people bring you down!

Never my friend. That's the way they live their lives and I don't plan to be affected by them. Well, not in a bad way. I "unfollowed" her, actually. I don't want to be one of her reasons not to be happy.hihihi...

I don't always follow everyone who follows me -- especially if I know know nothing about them. I sometimes let them sit for a few days, weeks, or even months until I feel I know more about them and that we might have something in common. On a site like Stumble-Upon, I proably wouldn't be so fussy, but if a follow means that you will be getting email notifications everytime that person does something on that site, I would be more careful to see that I would be interested in what that person might post. I'm really careful about whom I send referral links to for sign-ups. I'd post them on Facebook, but they usually delete the referral code, so I don't do that anymore. Twitter at least leaves the referral code in. Whether I accept or reject to follow or accept a friend request, I see no reason to be rude about it, ever.

Hi bagarad! StumbleUpon is a bookmarking site. People there normally sends out links to their sites or articles. I don't see much ref links, so far. Anyway, I would think that this woman is also a network marketer as well; so it's odd for me how she handles a request from a stranger such as I am. I could have been one of her best sharers for all that she knows. Oh well... moving on..hihihih! I still wish her the best of luck and success in the internet world!
