Would you get involved?

If there was someone here that was here that was doing that too someone I would report them to the myLot staff.I don't know that it would take a whole lot of people to get them banned.But yes I would stand up for them & probabaly spread the word that they are not nice & problem people.

I would be very hurt to think that people on my friends list would behave in that manner....I would probably get involved...even if it was through a PM...because I would not want to publically hurt someone....but I would want to give them a chance to explain their actions...if they were unable to do so...then I would wonder why we were trying to form a friendship when we view the value of a friend in a different manner...but that is me...I care about people...truly care...but I do not like to see some of the meanness that I have witnessed here lately....differing opinions do not bother me....but to stick to the subject at hand would be nice....not to intentionally hurt another person...I just can not agree with that......and won't!!!

OK--- If the person who is getting flamed did nothing to cause it- ie. started it- said bad things- etc- I would send my other friend a message telling them how I felt- I know alot of times the easier way is to ignore it so that you don't get pulled in- and they don't start with you- but the better thing to do is to stand up and tell them how you feel- You don't know how good it will make your one friend feel-- they could be so down in the dumps about the whole flaming thing- thinking noone is on their side-- People need to stop this kind of thing- Just get along- post your opinions but do it nicely!

i would just stay out off it !! 'tis not your problem dear :)

i would not get involve. it is only discussion board and i would ignore it. i would suggest to friend to also ignore it. usually it go away if ignore it anyway.

I am kind of possessive when it comes to my friends so if I happen to know the person or am close to the person then yea, I would just tell the arsenist to lay off and go reflect how they would feel if someone goes around bit3hing about them. But if it is someone I do not know, I will not interfere.

first of all, flaming means.......? what's there in this? if someone got interested in someone else what is it to me? i am a broad minded person and will let this go on it's way..!

I'd report it all to MyLot, but I wouldn't get involved personally. You don't need it coming back to bite you.

Hi swtrose, I would have to think about this, I agree that personal attacks on anyone are just wrong, and I would advise them of that. If there was no justification for flaming, then I would be forced to report that. and in my opinion there is no justification for flaming. As well I would remove the offender from my friends list. I have on one or two occasions be had at, by someones friends, because they were unhappy that I saw something different than they did. For that I do keep a list of people that I do not ever answer a discussion, These are people that unless you mirror their thinking you are not being "nice" and get a negative rating. so I just let them all cuddle together telling each other how wonderful and smart and sweet they are. Some one mentioned as well as having a friends list we should also have a foe list, I thought it was an excellent idea.

Well I think you know I won't stay out of it. I can't stand for people I like to be picked on. I may not always respond as I dont feel people that flame are worth the time or attention but I will at least report it and hope that it gets removed, it's no fun to be picked on :(

It depends on why they were attacking one of my friends on here. I have over 100 friends on here but there are only 4 of them that I actually write to almost everyday on mylot so If I read the discussion and found that there was no reasonable reason why they were attacking my friend than YES I would say something to them because thats what friends do. On the other hand if I see it is a harmless discussion than I wont get involved. Like I told you before today some crazy girl was saying things that were absurd so my friends came into the discussion and had my back without me even having to tell them. They know she was saying these things to try and hurt me so they came to my defense and Im so greatful. So YES I would come to my friends defense.
