*Reminder: Public airing of personal grievances

I think we should be friends with whom we choose and allow others to do so also.

You are 100% right. We are all here on this earth for the same purpose and that is not bad mouthing others because we do not agree with what they say. I think everyone on here is an adult so why not act like it.

Totally agree.

@sharon6345 rebelann recommended it to me so I recommended it to people I could that hadn't already been sent it

@bunnybon7 your very welcome

thanks i too would have missed it

@Morleyhunt I wish that I did also. Wrong place~wrong time.

Obviously I missed the drama.

@Morleyhunt Me too, and I'm just as happy to miss it.

thanks for suggestion

@yugocean You are welcome, I always share the Admin Reminders.

You are quite right that discussing is not the same as arguing and fighting and I think this is where a lot of people go wrong. They disagree with someone's opinion on something and rather than challenge the opinion or stop to understand why this person holds that opinion they immediately resort to name calling and insults. Attack an argument not the person.

Very much agree on this!

i wouldn't be comfortable knowing my private messages were being monitored here. you can change your PM settings to 'Only Those I Follow Can Message Me'. for private messages that you feel really crosses the line, you can copy/paste it in a private message to mylot admin.

@Courtlynn Thank you, Courtney.

@rebelann yes even when it was in other administration . best on the web here

That's a pretty good record for Mylot isn't it? I haven't had the misfortune of being bullied and hope it doesn't happen. Thanks for giving us a view of how wonderful Mylot has been over the years.

I agree, we should all thank Admin for the hard work that goes into keeping this humongous site so friendly.

@rebelann I agree!

I would hope more members are like you. I haven't had very many problems here but I've read that there have been a few people who have been harrassed by one.

I don't know about that, some adults are worse than kids.

@rebelann That's true.

Isn't it a shame that admin had to post this?

So true @Courtlynn

@rebelann yes it is. We're all adults, and should be mature enough to ignore others if we cant get along with them, or dont like what they do or say.

You are always courteous and friendly.

@rebelann thank you.

You are welcome @responsiveme

Me too.

Oh Carol, there are far too many adults who act more like children, it's such a shame all the way around.

@rebelann You are correct.

I agree, it's a shame that there is no way to add to the guidelines that we should all be mature adults who can get along or simply avoid those they cannot get along with, it is what we do in the real world.

You are correct but unfortunately many adults are not all that mature.

@rebelann Yeah, but if it's people who simply do not get along no matter what, they need to just block instead of stirring the pot just because they don't like them, and not make rude remarks about them. There are many others to interact with, I don't think blocking someone when need be will make a huge difference. Sometimes you just gotta do what's best for you. :)

If that works for some then that's that @tammys85 but I find I don't need to respond to discussions or responses that I don't like.

I haven't blocked anyone yet but I also don't respond to discussions I don't agree with. I figure why block someone if they might write something interesting one day.

I do the same, if I can't think of something constructive and kind to say than why bother.

es, no need to argue

That is a good solution

There are quite a few members who do exactly that, it's a shame Admin has to write these reminders.

I haven't come across any of them either @FayeHazel I feel lucky in that respect.

@rebelann I agree. Unfortunate , indeed. Somehow - I never seem to see any of these type of posts so admin must be really on the ball, fortunately. :-D
