ABOVE AND BELOW PICTURES, TOGETHER WITH TYPEFACE AND FONT COLOUR REPRESENT HOW I FEEL ABOUT "A CERTAIN SITUATION" IN J-LAND, WHICH HAS LEFT OUR COMMUNITY MINUS ONE BLOGGER. PERSON CONCERNED LEFT AFTER FOUR YEARS' WRITING, ON ACCOUNT OF TROLLS. WRITER WAS PRIVATE - READERS ARE AWARE.
GENERALLY, WHEN ARE PEOPLE GOING TO GET IT INTO THEIR CRAMPED CRANIUM THAT
- YOU LIVE AND LET LIVE
- DO NOT DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU DON'T WANT DONE TO YOURSELF
- JUDGE NOT LEST YE YOURSELF BE JUDGED
This is not good, and how do these trolls get into private journals?

Oh! Not someone else Guido? How sad is the mind of the offending person who has done this to a fellow journaler who has been around for so long?
ReplyDeleteThey are sick in the mind.
Add my rant to yours too.

My feelings exactly. Why oh why do folks do such things. I just hope tha if heaven forbid it should happen to me that I would be strong enough just to totally ignore them...if we leave ....they win... Love Sybilx
ReplyDeleteThat's to bad , leaving after four years of journaling. How does all this start, in chat rooms? I also wonder how they get in private journals. Dawn
ReplyDeleteIt is so not right that people are getting ridiculed on there own private journals. It upsets every one in jland that are genuine caring people, There are more journals shutting there doors, soon they will be no one left. That upsets me greatly.

I have been sad all day over this. I have cried. I have had lunch with her and looked into the eyes of an Angel that some asshole troll WON by running her off. Pretty pathetic that someone on the inside felt better by being twofaced. I'm just sad sad sad.

Oh, I am so sorry that even on a private journal people find a way to make mean remarks. Gerry
ReplyDeleteSad, especially since it was a private journal. There is far too much cruelty in the real world ~ it is beyond me why J-Land has experience it as well.
ReplyDeleteLisa
i can guarantee you that where i go, i will take you with me. You, Mr. Guido, are a true blue friend and your words hold alot of weight with me. I think you are awesome.
ReplyDeletelisa
Guido it's disgusting. I am livid that she has been run off... and worse that these assholes are supported throughout JLand. I would never be one to make my friends pick only those that I like but cripes how can one stand by and see this repeated over and over and just look the other way? Disgusting!

Since this is/was a private journal, all this person had to do, was exclude the troll from the reader list. Not sure how this happened and to who.
ReplyDeleteVish
I understand how you're feeling Guido, It's sad that one of the Jland writers who was private was driven away by some trolls. From time to time, we do need a little break, so hopefully that when things calms down for her, she'd come back and invite those she can trust to be with her in her private journey.
ReplyDeleteTake care,

It wasn't as simple as blocking the troll. It was people that she trusted, copying and pasting, and writing about her in a blog outside AOL, trashing her and her family, some of it sounded very dangerous and threatening. I am so sad to see her go. She was/is my friend. I don't know how I'll get over this myself. It's hard to know who to trust. This happened to her by people she trusted who pretended to befriend her. I'm so sad about it and for her.

I have always said that private entries and comments should not be able to be copied and pasted.. i think private should mean totally private....of course someone could always just TELL another person what they had read so i guess there is no real answer....
ReplyDeletebloody shame though...LJ's was the first journal i ever read and the reason I started my own blog...

awful to hear that someone has been treated in this way, ther are some nasty people out there, i hope that they get their just deserts. mrs t xx
