I mean, when someone else posts a photo, I don't go out of my way to insult them, even if I have occasionally—but that was after someone did it to me first. Not everyone on this site is a supermodel to me either, but I don't act like a jerk about it.
I can't believe it, but I actually thought about starting a thread over on PZK just for you. Specifically, one where I’d defend you, because what people are doing to you here (don't get mad, guys) is honestly getting pretty disrespectful. Though, I guess you kind of invite it yourself, but still, it’s not right.
I think mocking Melpy and her photos—which she’s even had to pull from other sites—is wrong. It goes against the rules of this forum, sure, but more importantly, it goes against basic human decency, where making fun of people is seen as being really low-class.
But again, Melpy, you post stuff and start threads that basically bait the people who enjoy messing with you. When there aren't any mods around (and Sci definitely isn't capable of seeing anything beyond obvious spam—that's why she only handles the BR board), you just end up digging yourself deeper into frustration, and now you've got an audience following you to other forums too.
So, yeah, you kinda built your own reputation.
Still, I've never been able to stand bullying. In the past, I've always felt the need to step in for the victim, so I feel like I should back you up on this topic.
To me, it feels like straight-up harassment. No matter what thread I start, there's always a few people (including some newbies) who just bully me, and then somehow I'm the one who gets banned while they don't even get a warning. Makes zero sense. 🙄
I'm with you on this. What they're doing to Melpy is pure harassment, and the mods really should be stepping up to protect users from other users.
I mean, Melpy should have the right to post pictures in a thread meant for that without being mocked for it.
Her threads about little kittens and doctors are just her way of trying to escape the comments here (she doesn't know how else to deal with it) and it's all a result of the drama she has with a few users who just love tearing her down.
And hey, maybe those same users should post their own photos so we can give them some feedback too.
It's a shame there isn't anyone else left on this site who cares about this kind of thing.
I wish des would weigh in on this, because I know she has enough empathy to see the problem I'm pointing out (if she's even still involved with our little community).
As for the rest of you... I don't know.
