..oh and btw i thought stephens war and peace episode about how bullying disgusts him etc etc was made to look rather pathetic by his opening statement..
Of course, Pebbles, you could care less about Sir Actor’s “feelings,” or whether he is bullied, you only wish to stir the pot…er, cauldron.
Pat posted a very good explanation of what bullying is on another thread. In short, it is someone trying to take advantage over another, because it makes them feel less inadequate. However, that is different than calling someone to task for something you believed that they did wrong. If I take umbrage with something another man has said, or done, then I will tell that man; especially if I think the offense is particularly egregious. I don’t like conflict, and I will usually go far and wide to avoid it, but some things are worth taking a stand for, and it is these things which define us as humans. One can forever seek to see both sides of a debate, but at some point one has to shyt or get off the pot. If my child is standing by a river, I don’t wait for her to take an initial step in to see if the current might carry her away. I am proactive, and hasten to protect her. The trend of people waffling over everything is like an epidemic in Western society. If a person takes issue with another’s transgression, that is not bullying, it is standing up to be counted. It’s what people with self-worth do, and if they misstep they will likewise be big enough to set things right.

You have received an apology after getting a bashing from a Canadian
I wonder if they do the same for seals.
If you do it in the evening it’s called night-clubbing. :twisted:

I cant beleive that a person on here has bullied and threatened someone so much they felt forced to reveal the most intimate details about themselves.
Cath,
being bullied and threatened is all part of JC isn;t it?
I’ve had sword doing it to me for years.It used to get me down at one time.
Nobody seemed to care.
But hey….life goes on and you learn to fend for yaself.
Your post surprised me.
Nobody ever did anything like that for me when I needed it.No it isnt part of being JC at all
Of course it is!!! Its been proven time after time..no one gives a shi.t that people are allowed to run riot in the rooms, how may times have people said that abuse goes on…and not just when one guide is in the room, but several!!
Same applies to the boards, anything goes..and personally I wouldnt have this place any other way. Ive said it before, if people cant take the banter, there are plenty of other sites on the net where its all nicey nicey, why dont they leave here and join somewhere more suited to themselves? Im sick of hearing about people moaning about how they hate this place and what goes on here, yet oddly enough, these very people for some reason just cant drag themselves away. Admit it, without the banter this place would be dead and none of us would bother coming here.
…oh and btw i thought stephens war and peace episode about how bullying disgusts him etc etc was made to look rather pathetic by his opening statement..
“Well, it isn’t any wonder, because you are a f-ucking, whinging baby. Unlike you, Cath has integrity and a backbone.” You big bully Stephen! :roll:
Theres a world of difference between banter and bullying
