This Really Needs to Stop...

Now, I don't hardly ever start topics on the boards, but I have to say this. I have THE BEST friends on here. They are nurturing, loving, supporting, empathetic, and open-minded. They are like this if we are discussing weight loss or personal matters of our real lives.
I myself have experienced this and now I've had so many of these wonderful people get their feelings hurt lately because others on this site are sending private messages to them complaining about their profile pictures, weight loss tickers, headline quotes, etc. being offensive.
I've heard them upset because people who see them on the boards or on mutual friend's walls, passing judgement on their flirty attitudes. All the while, these people who are so delicate and offended are NOT even our friends.
So here is my point. This is a site that offers many things to many different people. I encourage those out there who are getting harassed like this to NOT take it!!! We have a right to express ourselves on here and no one should feel bullied out of doing so. To those who are trolling the boards and random profiles to pass judgement and be critical, it is time to find a better use of your time. It is hurtful, unnecessary, and will not bother you at all if you simply move on.
XOXO

I'm amazed that people would take the time to send them a personal message like that when they don't even know them. If I don't like what someone says or I don't like their pictures, I just move on and forget about it. People are so weird!0

Hating: When one puts down the success or fortune of others due to jealousy0 -

Thanks.
I like it a lot too. Someone last week had a problem with it.
It's art people!! lol
You notice it's still there?! haha0 -
Yuck, people can be so judgmental and cruel. Honestly, if you are offended by a picture you should be complaining to the site's mods not harassing and insulting people via private message. As long as the pictures are within the rules of the site, then shut it!0

We have *kitten* grabbing already...I love this place!0
