I'm back. Now, as far as putting an e-mail address or the name of the school one attends out for everyone up here to see, I personally don't see a problem with it...
unless you have something to hide. So, to me that says a lot for people who come in the forums with the sole purpose of stirring things up. If you're up here chatting, responding to different posts, etc. and not setting off senseless arguments and being disrespectful, then there shouldn't be a problem. If you are...then your best bet is to stay unregistered. This way you can say all sorts of things and no one will know who you are. I don't do that sort of thing and I am registered so I feel quite comfortable with my posts.
I can be myself...and guess what? If I weren't being myself, it would be ignorant on my part KNOWING that I have all my business out there.
So that's my opinion on that.
I didn't think...rather, I KNEW "Damn's" comments could not be applied to me, but I find it very hard to sit back and watch people come in these forums with the sole intent of being rude and nasty. That is whether, they're referring to me or other sistas on this board. Instead of questioning why interests are sweating and kissing ass all the time...I question why another interest who has merely sat back and been a silent participant up until now (and out of all the wonderfully interesting topics that are discussed) decides the one time they do want to come in and particiapte it's something negative. Some people.....
AND...As far as "Damn's" last post "if you don't personally know a member of XYZ, what's attracting you to them...yadda, yadda, yadda" I don't know
WHERE that came from. All out of left field and what have you...Girl, I don't know what you're talking about with that one...guess it's just you being angry and griping again *sigh*
Anyway, I won't continue with this little game...I just wanted to let you know that I'm not mad at ya, don't have an angry bone in this body
Just try and get rid of some of that anger sweetie...other interests kissing ass is really no reason to get yourself all worked up. Especially since you're not a member of any Greek organization and they're not kissing up to you....consider yourself lucky for not having to put up with it personally. Please sista, try and get past this...let it go. I'm sure you have more important things to worry your little head over.
Oh, and Zeta Ace, I agree with you wholeheartedly. I have seen some of the posts of intersts who are screaming "How Can I Be Down"... Im not questioning that. I am questioning why another interest...
Another Interest would feel the need to post something so trivial, and in
the rudest way she could muster it up? Is this the way interests should be acting toward each other? We're all in the same boat, you know? I see plenty of things said in these forums by interests that I sometimes cringe at, if I really had a problem with it...I'd e-mail them personally and express my "problem with them", it's all in how you go about doing things. I believe it's called being tactful.
