Some ppl really need to learn how to respect others opinion in this forum. I see this line come up in the forum day after day, "This is an open forum and we are entitled to our own opinions." And that is completely true but the funny thing is, the ppl who said that go on to bash some1 else for expressing their opinion. As long as the person has expressed their opinion in a harmless way there is no reason for any1 else to interfere. And why do we need to try and change some1's opinion? If someone feels a way abt something, they just do, there's no need to try and bash them for it. And another thing, some ppl do this, they reply to some1 else and r hinting abt some1 else in the process. Those who do it, really need to know how that feels, coz it does hurt, even if not much, it does hurt ppl's feelings. U know who u r, if ur reading this post. One more thing I wanna say, this is to the ppl who have been here for quite a while, aka the sisslerz, rockerz, stunnerz and dasslerz and some of the higher rankings as well. U guys r well known in the forum and as far as I can see, most of u r really nice ppl, but some of u tend to misuse the support u get from other members in this forum. U guys know that when u say something directly or indirectly, hurtful or not to a person, other members r gonna support u. U bash some1 directly juat coz u know no1's gonna say anything to u abt it? That is in no way less than bullying. Plz don't get me wrong, most of u r really nice ppl but I do know a few ppl who r like that and I'm only saying all this stuff coz I experienced it several times. A request to all the higher ranking members, if ur 1 of those ppl who misuse the support of other members, can u plz stop cornering newbies, groupbies and senior members, coz these ppl r the ones who r most frequently bashed for no fault of theirs. I dunno if I've cornered any newbie or groupbie or any1 else on this forum till date, but if I have and if I've hurt that person in any way, I sincerely apologise for it. I guess it's true that we need to be in that position to know how it feels. So guys, plz try to understand what the other person is saying, even if u don't like it, be4 u go on to bash them. If someone has an opinion abt something, let them be, why do we need to bash them?
I'm extremely sorry if I hurt any1 eith what I said now, but I was just letting out all that pent up frustration from last night, coz that hurt me quite a bit. But ifvu guys feel that I siad too much, I once again apologise for it. I might have just said all that coz of the stuff that a few others said to me, but I feel that there r loads of other newbies, groupbies and possibly a few senior members who feel a lil scared of what others members mi8 say, if they voice themselves. This post was for all those ppl. I am very sorry if I've hurt anyone in particular, that was totally not my intention. Peace! :)

P.S. A request to the MODs: If u guys feel that I've said something wrong in this post, plz let me know, I will change it ri8 away, but I request u not to close this post coz I feel that bashing has increased a lot in this forum and those ppl need to be awre of how it feels when we r bashed. So plz plz plz don't close this post, I will edit anything u feel is against the forum rules.
