Making fights through Social Media (Get real! Confront the person!)

We do see this on various social networking sites wherein someone has been fighting with someone over Facebook, twitter, and the many social media platforms. This is really irritating because they are making their personal issues a “public” and in a way a trial by publicity…
Sometimes we read some post over a friend’s facebook wall bashing one another, calling names, name dropping and putting an obvious blind item to what problem they are experiencing.
I mean they should get real and confront their enemies rather than putting it all over such social media. It just adds up to the buzz that is really childish and not worth reading on such social media outlets.
Have you encounter such people who post their fights over social media?
Please share your take on the subject matter…

Nice! It's a pretty decent way to show that you're time is more valuable than a petty issue. Thanks for answering! :)

I remember one time I have actually done this... difference is i did not only vented out on social media, i tagged the people involved in my status update and told them bring it on! im not scared of you or your group of friends, i am ready anytime. haha
And so all those who do not know the others i was fighting with was asking what it is about and i told them what happened in private. They all responded and even told me they are willing to be with me when i meet up with those i want to confront. :P situation was that i wasn't seeing these people since they are from another company but they were friends with my ex and was telling me a lot of things that my ex told them and so it was my fault that he cheated on me?! wow i told them they had wrong information and to stop making me feel bad about breaking up because it was the only sane thing i did for our relationship to break up with their friend.
some people do use their accounts to sort of say things and fight with others - only that the person they are referring to probably were not aware of what was it all about. :D mine was different i tagged them and i broadcasted how crappy their minds were for believing their cheating friend. :D and so i said im ready anytime, bring it on! hahaha No one messed up with me anymore after that, well at least everyone that knew me and saw my post were now afraid of making me pissed of. heheh

my SIL and her baby's father air their laundry out on full blast about their problems. they tried to get me to mediate online, but i just didn't want to get involved. i ended up blocking her baby's father and her for a while. i put her back on friends list, now. just not him.

Good thing that you didn't want to put pressure on such fights over postage on social media. it's also a good way that you ignore their own issues and not getting involve with it. But yeah, it's quite annoying that people posts such petty problems online.

My high school batch has Facebook Group. And some had openly posted their disgust over fellow batchmates. I could understand both sides. But really, it is much better to talk about it personally than let others know about what is going on between them.

Very true! rather than wasting their time talking and putting negative messages... why not confront it out.

People who does that are cowards. They hide behind the words they tweet or say. If they are not cowards, why can't they confront the person herself?

You have a point them, i mean it's quite annoying that they are preoccupied with such the same issues over and over again, and try putting people involved with it by shouting it out to social media stream. It just makes the problem worst.
Thanks for your response...

yes, i agree with you. People who have something to say must directly tell it to the person they are talking because if they don't tell it directly it is useless because the person that is being talked about will not know. If they want to resolve a problem they should confront them.

True! confronting them rather than just posting the same issue over and over to social media, that eventually does not help solve it. by confronting or telling them directly your social network would eventually not know what your problem is.

I think a good thing is to only use social media on your computer,and not your phone.otherwise you are tempted to "answer"when you don't need to.

I have seen a lot of fights like this especially on Facebook. It can be annoying because things like this should not be posted on public sites like this. Although I do understand that the poster might just want to vent out or just did it at the height of their anger, it is still inappropriate to do. Not only are they making themselves look childish, but posting problems or arguments on a public platform will not really solve the problem. If anything, it would only make the matters worse.

It can be that they just want to burst their anger, but it's time that people should pay cautious posts on such social networks. most especially that in this era, Social media has been used by many.
Thanks for your response.
