LOL!! Yep. Men are more: in-your-face-let's-take-it-out-to-the-parking-lot about their anger, whereas women are quiet and work behind the scenes. Which is why I prefer hanging around men more than women. :smt026
Me too. Many of the women here are exceptions, but in general women do sneaky, back-stabbing, and two-faced better than anyone.
That reminded me that there are also women who use positive rep divisively. They leave negative messages about other members in positive rep, like a warning system. You know the old 'divide and conquer' routine. :roll: Though those actually tell me a lot about the person leaving the rep, the term sour grapes comes to mind. Who knew forums could involve so much drama and politics?
Nope, not her. It's someone who is fairly well-liked, but hasn't posted in quite awhile (this rep was from months ago). I won't name names though. Ah yes, I have been privy to that, as well. Luckily, I, too, was notified of this behavior. Fun times. And yes, I come on here to avoid the drama and politics of real-life, but unfortunately, that crap PULLS ME BACK IN, even on here!! :smt005
Women generally don't leave me neg rep (although just one did very recently). As always it's all about me. LOL.
exactly what i do as well...i prefer to discuss what it is that is bothering me or just move on, just as i deal with things in life outside of this screen.
That's surprising, in all the time you've been here, no neg rep, wow. I feel you though, I think that I gave it once, and that was very recently. Straight from the sources, I'll take it!
I haven't left a negative yet. I have only received one negative and it was written in some kind of code. It said XXX. I was like wtf does that mean?? I asked and was only told it was left by a woman. Cest la vie. :smt102
Hmm... I wonder if that's a default in the coding that puts XXX when they don't type a message? I got positive once and it had the same message but the person later told me they hit the button before typing anything.
XXX means kisses. XOXO means kisses and hugs. If she left neg rep while saying XXX she was being sarcastic. British people mostly use XX as kisses at the end of sentences. Therefore Jordan's neg poster was British. There are/were four British female posters on the forum, one of which is known to be sarcastic. I think you can take it from there. You're welcome.
Well aren't you just too bright! My positive rep was also from someone British, so of course you're right... but then Karma's always right.
The way webmaster explained the points that were taken away with neg rep ...........there were only two women that had that amount of rep to take that amount away. Neither was British. Don't tell Denzbenz the Brits weren't guilty this time. And I used to use x's and o's at the bottom of my letters to my grandparent.s
im british and dont end sentences in kisses, never had a letter off a brit with kisses on it unless they were of the male persuasion. ive also never left negative rep for anyone
Robina I just want to be clear at no time did I imply anyone British. I think you Brits all are great. Love your input and sharp humor. 8) I had only asked webbie to clarify this negative because at the time a male member here was stalking me around. In chat and other ways. And I was going to report him if that neg was his way of tweaking me again......only to find out it was a woman who gave me the neg. So I just took it I pissed someone off.
