Why are people so hateful??

Anyone else come in line with some down right hostile threads going on here.....This is supposed to be a place of help and support, not ripping each other to shreds on who is right and wrong. Just because it worked for you doesn't mean it will for someone else and vice versa. Am I alone on this? :grumble:

COWARDS who are afraid to stand up to people face to face where they could easily get their A** kicked are capable of coming online and saying what they please as they hide behind the computer screen in their mommy's basement where they live.

Not me.
I'm much meaner in real life.
On here, I'm practically a charm school graduate in comparison.

Yup, me too. I'm actually more careful on-line than in real life. Less time for brain/mouth filter IRL. Also, tone is very hard to convey on-line, so I try to be cognizant of that.

Ooooh, a meaniepants thread on a Wednesday? Whatever shall our excitement be for Friday?

I made a thread about a product line that had helped me which for some reason had people flaming me and accusing me of selling things to them and all sorts of other terrible things to the point where they were accusing me of grabbing pictures off of google and not having a real profession as a model let alone my own photos being me!!!

The only reason I lurk these threads; the entertainment value is epic. Sometimes I even learn a thing or two.

But really, people only comment on a post it's not an attack on you. Don't take *kitten* so personally.

Unless someone says something nasty about peanut butter.

I disagree, I was personally attacked on here the other day including comments about my appearance.

You were pushing Herbalife. We don't do fad diets here.

But the catfishing comments might have been over the top.

I like how people are like "we don't do X around here".

Just because you don't believe in something doesn't mean someone else can't. Please put your opinion and facts into it but all the name calling and slander is just a bunch of pathetic internet warriors who hate their own lives thus they put down others.

My personal belief is that if I were going to type something on the Internet I would say it in person. I highly doubt the majority of you have the fortitude to say half of what you say here.

Want to flame me? Go ahead I rarely read the forums and just peak in every now and then.

"Stop attacking me!" = "Agree with me or don't post in my thread!"

Every. Single. Time.

EDIT: SO what's up with this shirataki noodles thread? Was it deleted? *please tell me it wasn't*

They can do anything they want. Just don't come back whining when it doesn't work or you gain it all back.

We're all here counting calories because most of us have failed at these stupid money wasting fads.

You may very well be who you say you are. But if so, you are definitely selling Herbalife, so your woe-is-me about being accused of trying to sell something when you ARE trying to sell something is not an attack.

(I found your Facebook page.)

Make liberal use of the "Ignore User" function, and the trolls will disappear within a few days.

You are right. Just because you believe something I don't believe in, doesn't mean you can't do it. So do it.

But if you want to post in a public forum and a) claim product/plan superiority or b) extreme weight loss benefits or c) requesting opinions on said product, plan or benefit then you should expect some form of dissension. It's called feedback. Like it or not, it's how we learn.

The one thing I enjoy about these sorts of threads is the display of irony of people bitterly name-calling people who name-call. Basically sitting anonymously behind their computer calling people cowards for having called other people names (like coward) anonymously behind their computer.

If you post information on a public forum and the response of people is to rip into that information and say why they believe it is incorrect that is not a personal attack.

It's still there.
