RESPECT : 3 RD ANNIVERSARY POST & WHAT HAS CHANGED ? NOT MUCH

Hello Darling Readers,

Well isn't that something the 3rd anniversary of my blog post about RESPECT has come and I am back to writing about this topic again. I had foolishly hoped when the site dealt with the last member to cause issues/problems that all the bloggers would be so happy & writing about all the things that interest them & posting pix/videos if that is what they'd like to share..A fond and faint hope that was not to be. According to some members here...some bloggers both male & female prefer the drama, name calling and abuse/lies.

When a former member and her male playmates were removed from the site for making death threats against members ..we had believed the worst was dealt with..Sadly, all we did was remove one BIG troublemaker thus opening the doors for others to follow their lead. ( side note...the ex member has now discovered religion and is Praising The Lord all over FB ) I still find it hard to believe or understand that 3 years ago I had to go the owner of this site and tell him of their crimes/misdeeds ..it was He who suggested I write something about this and use the word RESPECT...so I did. 3 years later I am still writing about it.

With the current political environment of hate, fascism , abuse, bullying..is it any wonder that folks can simply not be civil to one another..Everyone wants their 15 mins of fame it seems even if it means achieving it by being cruel, lying and engaging in insults/abuse. I almost feel like we need to market a new t shirt for members : " HEY LOOK AT ME."

After the member and her squad were removed it was peaceful and quiet around the site..New bloggers were testing the waters and bravely posting new topics, polls & posts..It was so much fun seeing new writers on our horizon and discovering new blogs.

Suddenly it all stopped and one Blogger posted an idea of a truce..No more name calling, blog baiting titles, no more abuse...I watched a number of popular bloggers/members agree to this ...and at the same time became aware of another group who refused to agree for fear of being thought guilty of the very things they engaged in. In the end they told other members to stay quiet..stay away from something good that was started..all because they did not think of it first.

Lately I have seen blogs that are critical of some female bloggers who share photos..these blogs are written by women against women..If you do not like the photo blogs then avoid them..if you are spending time watching the cursed blog list because you want to be at the top of it then you have wayyyyyyyyyyyy to much time on your hands..Men are by nature visual creatures and they enjoy looking at beautiful, sexy images. NO harm in that and ok, you do not..we get that...You can chose to write whatever you like here or share as long as it does not violate the TOU on site. You could have simply said " I do not like the blogs with ladies photos on them ." Simple as that..No need to go after a blogger who posts body shots daily hoping for any kind of attention.

Just to be clear...I only know a few of the folks, male & female on that cursed blog list..I just found out recently that a top blogger is telling everyone how much she HATES Me and a friend of mine..WHY ? I have no idea..I've never been rude to her or abusive..Had one communication with her on a friends blog..Nothing mean or abusive..then like most members I know.. found myself blocked from her blog. That is ok..that is her right..A man who I value on site told me once that she wanted to talk to me & had evidence of serious wrongs/misdeeds on site..I told him to have her message me and we could discuss it and if she has this serious evidence to turn it in to the site..From what I've heard, NO evidence was ever turned in and no message from the blogger who was so determined to talk to Me. I kept the door open even though she took every opportunity to talk bad about me, lie about me and others and even go on friends blogs and SCREAM about Me..She even changed her signature once to something along the lines of what I wrote about respect..I was seriously flattered...she took the time away from boosting her own blog posts/ comments UP to slam me and try to make me a figure of her ridicule. I shook my head and said "IMITATION IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY."

Now we have another issue cropping up..a Male member who seems to enjoy causing controversy and insulting women and gay men..He has been on my blog but one of his posts was so disturbing and incoherent that I thought he wrote it while drunk so never allowed it to be posted or shared. I found myself being asked for help when he wrote something horrible on someone eles's blog..They had already reported it to the site, I reported it again and again and kept coming back to my blog because the man who was offended by the post was not getting answers fast enough..I kept explaining to him the proper process and even suggested someone reach out to the blogger on whose post he'd written the damming comment and ask that blogger to delete the comment..Sadly some members write obscene things just for the attention they get..it somehow makes them valuable to the world, or so they think. The man posting to my blog just got angrier and angrier with me and began blaming me for this..I finally had to tell him to pleaae ignore my blog. I'd done all I could do to push this issue forward but to him it was not enough..I am NOT a paid employee of this site. I help the site/employees/members because I care about the site & know the owner. The blogger I asked to ignore me sent one of his female friends to my blog and I had to shut that post down/close it off to comments because of them...and what did I do to deserve this ? Oh yes. I tried to help. All the years I've been here I have spent helping members with all sorts of issues..stalkers, lost handle, lost passwords..anything you could think of that could go wrong has and I have been here for them & directing them to the right dept to seek help from..and what was my reward ? ABUSE , LIES & HATE. Gee, Thanks for making me famous Members.

I want to suggest members try a new tactic with this male blogger & his insulting ways..IGNORE HIM...copy/paste/report his grotesque words and do not reply..Take screen shots and DELETE the comment if it is on your blog..Just by giving him the attention he seeks makes it more difficult for other members to enjoy the site..Within the past few weeks I have seen this member attack a woman for her photo on site, hijack her question in the magazine & insult her for her<b> tummy...</font></b>next up I see him insult a man who replied to a female bloggers blog post and tell him he had no right to reply since he was gay..and what does that blog owner do when she read his post ??? You might think an intelligent female blogger would be disgusted with such words and would rush to delete the negative, homophobic comment.....NO, she told him how much she missed him while quoting the very post he made slamming the man for being gay. If we keep going down this road then more women will be attacked and abused and leave the site...what will the men do then ? Do we all sit back and let him attack our LBGTQ members ? NO we do NOT...

Stand UP and say something...Do not be afraid of him or the cursed blog list..EVERYONE has right to be treated fairly and without abuse by all members..Copy, Paste, Report,Ignore..Screen shots & DELETE..If we do not give the abusive members a place to post their racist, abusive, stupid posts then perhaps they will just vanish from the site..Like all the female & male bloggers/members who have quit already. Perhaps by previewing all posts before they appear on your blog post is the best thing you can do to stop the idiotic abuse ..YOU will not lose any points for doing this..YOU will not lose your highly valued place on the cursed blog list..YOU will gain MORE fans for stopping this vicious cycle of hate, racism and abuse.

Happy New Week & Thanks for reading,
