why do people fill the need to pm other people horrible messages

Ignore it ! nasty people !

i think its horrid the way folk are spoken to and made a fool of on this !

i sadly was at the end of it myself on here for the 1st time since i joined , i think 3 ? years ago .

it was on a thread i joined about wind plaits etc on the stolen section a few weeks ago. as i had found 1 on my own horse back in june ,although id never posted about it on here as ive seen the way the threads go lol !!!!

and i have to say up untill it happened to my horse i would have been the 1st person to poo poo this carry on . but stupidly i joined in the other week . and the nasty little keyboard warrior was having a right go at me this person Tried to make a complete fool of me name calling me etc ! it was just nasty, glady i feel it just made her look like a horrid little person , and unable to comment without doing so in a horrid manner.

so rise above it and ignore xxx
 
BUt its so easy to say rise above it, not so easy to do.
When I was laid up after our accident, I was on here just talking about how I was feeling, and how devastated we were at the loss of 2 horses in such a way.
I was PM'd by a young girl telling me to grow up, ****** off, get over it, because nobody cares.

This was just a few weeks after the accident, where I wasnt shall we say mentally very strong.

It devastated me.

But I know now that it was just a child trying to get some kicks and a response.

But it did take me a long time to be able to rise above it.
 
Feel left out never had a nasty PM infact I dont ever seem to have any :(

However I bet these people and I can think of one that might have done so, probably would never do it face to face, at the end of the day all it is, is some words on a screen from someone who would never rise to challenge in real life and some one you hopefully never have to meet.
 
This person is rude, not necessarily of low intellect or 'lacking brain cells'.

My son is of low intelligence and in the old days would have been in an asylum. But he has manners to the best of his ability.

Huge difference between IQ and moral standards, ethics, etc. :)

Trust me, I'd much rather I hadn't had some of the PMs that I have! Both from young members that I've pointed out perhaps aren't treating their elderly ponies correctly, and from well respected members of the CR board (which is why I don't post there much anymore) being discriminatory about my disabilities, saying that I don't deserve a horse as good as H :mad:

Rise above it, you aren't the one with so little in her life you have to resort to such pettiness...

This is exactly the point I was making earlier. There is one on here (could be the one in question, but I shan't name names, as I could be wrong) who always sticks the boot in when someone posts about something really devastating. Flippant, dismissive, hurtful and cruel remarks. And I agree with the person who said that these people aren't lacking in intellect. The speed with which they post their spiteful remarks that pay attention to the smallest detail makes me think that they are not stupid, but cruel and rude. I hatehatehate it, it really annoys me. And what annoys me even more is that other people think it is funny. I bet they wouldn't think it was funny if they were in the OP's position and looking for advice/support and then were met with this rubbish.

Anyway, off my soapbox ;)
 
A week after I lost Koko I got a lovely PM from someone:

"You stupid attention seeking liar I bet he isn't even dead stop making up lies know one cares about you or you good for nothing pony get over yourself you stupid bi***"

Lets just say I actually couldn't PM back I was devastated as it was and to get someone accusing me of lieing!! Why would someone lie about the death of a lovely horse anyway?

Needless to say she/he is no longer a member of this forum!!

Oh my god that is horrendous, you poor thing. Disgusting. I would want to find them and smash their stupid face in!!!
 
Ignore ignore ignore, they are not worth you even wasting your time on them, check out the quality of their spelling - pot, kettle, black:D

Benson and Kokopelli, Jesus H, I cannot believe the people that Pm'd you, how bleddy cruel :eek:
 
How terrible. If I was to receive one - I'd post it to shame them to everyone. See how confident they are when it's exposed for all to see. Bullies and people attempting to bully should be pulled to ahead. It's very cowardly and a trait which I despise in people.
 
At one point, I found that whenever I posted , a certain member would home in on me (or at least that's how it felt) and belittle me and come out with statements like 'I don't know you, how can I possibly pass an opinion?' - then proceed to do so! Nastily!Immediately after one of these incidents, I recieved a lovely pm from another member telling me to ignore.
These people who are so nasty are bullies - nothing more and nothing less. There are far more lovely members on this forum and I deeply regret losing that lovely pm when the forum moved over to this format.
 
Sorry, totally off topic, but just read the quote ib MossMum's sig and it actually made me well up with tears (and I'm on train to work!).....

"Stood on a hill with mud up to my shins in freezing, driving wind in the early dark of November and thinking.... how is it possible that I'm this insanely happy right now? Then he blows hot breath on my neck, and I remember."

Isn't that just beautiful?
