Litsters' moral standards

Nope. Your way won't work either.
Some people come here and once they realise just how anonymous they are on this unregulated site, jump up and down with glee and proceed to bypass any and all filters they may have had.
They hold on to the freedom of speech thing with such fierce intensity that your little voice will never pry it from their grasp.
Never.

Counterargument:
Those alts/attack trolls who kept bullying Ish, relentlessly, about his personal stuff.
Once Laurel implied that those alts belonged to a long-term resident and shit-stirrer, other then Rob, and -much more important- once Rob's team (and I give then credit for that, for once) condoned the behaviors of the shit-stirrer(s),
- did you see any more attack trolls?
Nope. The coward(s) simply vanished.

They'll be back. Alt creation seems to be a matter of pride here.
 
Here. Get schooled.

People who want to speak as if they have cancer go here, not to WebMD

Anyone with a bit of smarts can use forums just like this to learn how to fake cancer.

It sounds right because it is...for other people with real cancer.

There are scores of cancer support forums. Just. Like. This.

Thanks, doc. I'll definitely take your opinion into account, since I place such great importance on it.
 
I'm not trying to pick on you, btw. :)
Your comments or criticisms have always been fair and appropriate, as I see it.

HAH!! Boy, did you get played! Renaud is the "worst of the wurst"!! Evil personified. Just look at that AV. What does that tell you?

*giggle*

Hope you're wrong, tho.
This is my 1st forum experience. And any online experiences that I had, prior to this, where of such nature that these sort of behaviors were quickly identified and limits were set.
 
Aella, is there nothing going on in your real life? I just scrolled through your posts and you seem to live here at Lit. Your misplaced moral rage also suggests you could use some real life, well, LIFE. This is not an attack, but a concern. Maybe ask your physician friend about your obsessive behavior?

Once you understand that this forum is completely different to any others you may have been to, you learn to discount the nastiness.
And if you can't tune it out, you should not be here. This place can harm you emotionally if you're not careful. It has happened before, many times.

Partisan bitch. :rolleyes:

See? You are so thick. I posted to you about a first hand, personal experience with a person who faked her cancer on the cunt thread, and you completely ignored it. Just...woosh!

I knew, personally, a woman who faked it for almost two years, and even fooled a doctor and a med student who posted with her on that forum. She even shaved her head for a cancer fundraiser, then posted the after photo as a "chemo shot".

You don't need to be a doctor to glean accurate and believable information that sounds plausible to anyone...doctor's included.

People doubt Ann because of a long history on this board of behavior that leaves her credibility in doubt. You've been here all of five minutes, but think you know everything about everyone that's worth knowing.

Please try and occasionally get your head out of your ass, Aella.

It did a bit, at one point, when I found myself to be the target of some nasty personal attacks which occurred after I was stupid enough to leak some very sensitive personal info. But I learned to put up defenses & avoid the crap or not take it to heart.

On the other hand, I met so many nice posters here, and the posts are so much fun… .They helped me get over some personal crap that I was going through, and they still keep putting a smile on my face if it rains or if I'm in a bad mood.
So overall, the benefits outweigh the nasties, and I'm greatful for this forum.

But you brought up some valid points and points taken, I'll think about them, ta.:)

This.
Do you know how many fake illnesses there have been on Lit? Along with fake deaths, fake martial/SO status'? This has been going on for years.
You and Ann make for great partners.
 
Is it ok to have a go at and try to censure those who express unpleasant R-wing views?

Ish wasn't censored & banned for that.

You think you're entitled to talk about double standards?

while aiding and abetting (aka jumping to their defense, whenever they're criticized) those who engage in long-term, relentless patterns of bullying particular posters, about their life-threatening illnesses?

What about your hoorays for busybody, who was banned multiple times for incitement of murder?
What about your hoorays for smooth, when he was a real asshole?

It's that hypocrisy that make those people won't excuse their ladism. Yes, you did some positive things, like saying sorry on the GB, which is quite unusual. But you're far from being the lighthouse of morality on the GB (and my personal horror is your aim to become that, as I'm not sure if I share your morality, or your moral pickiness).

Sorry, but this shit could be said about nearly every poster here, especially the busiest of them.

You said it's no attack, but it reads like an insult.

And here, on the GB, there are a lot of obsessive posters I'm scared to meet in real life. Some people are lost, not worth any responding, as they're out of any human touch at all. There are worse cases than aella. We don't need to make things worse than they are.

But she's right in one thing: making fun about people faking cancer isn't quite good behavior. If he/she has cancer, you're the assholes. If he/she/it faked it, he/she/it get what he/she/it wanted: motivate you to put out the asshole in you.

Either way, you're the asshole.

Be careful what you wish for innit?

Poppy faked her own suicide then came back posting as her sister. Her one advocate on here was absolutely devastated he'd been had and never came back (I'm sure he even phoned for an ambulance but might be wrong).

Then she died for real.
 
And stop interpreting my initial post the way YOU want it, Tom.
The main point that I was making was : if there's so much outrage over those who express bigotted views, why shouldn't there be some sort of outrage against those who engage in those horrid personal attacks?
Far from this thread being intended as an excuse for the R-wingers.

Now fuck off for good.

Because, you know, those people are kind of honest. It may be ladism, but it's honest.

If I had to weight it, honesty is the most important thing. you can hate me, you can badmouth as much as you like - as long as you're honest.

If you're dishonest and hypocrite, you can be the nicest, most diplomatic person on earth - I'd say "Fuck you" whenever possible.

But worse than both of it is bigotry. I don't need to talk to people who forgot they deal with human being.

People may not be nice to you - but they're communicate with you like humans. Something I can't say about some people you hooraid with.

I've never, not once, trolled Ann about cancer or anything else. Ever.

Aella seems to think because Ann posted some details that seem verifiable and align with what a medical expert says, it means she is telling the truth. I just want to point out how easy it is to access real stories, make them your own and sound knowledgable.

But it's like speaking to a jellyfish, so I give up.

Point taken. I would have sent a PM, but she does not have them on.

There may be worse cases, but she seems capable of reflection, but refuses to attempt it. It seems to affect her experience here, not only this day, but in general. Ah well, we are just words on a screen in any event.
 
Am I the only one who sees a double standard in all that, folks?

No, I think most can see the double standard.

However, we shouldn't be surprised, right wingers throughout the world are well known for their blatant hypocrisy.
