Completely oblivious to the fact they are rude? And yes you can tell someone is being rude by reading their typing rasp.
But seriously. There are some people that seem to not have a flipping clue how rude they are. Is it just me? I mean I have seen it on online forums,social sites,just about anywhere online where you can type in a sentence.
Do these people even care? Everyone is entitled to their opinion and all but why be RUDE about it? Does it make them feel better to belittle people just to get their point across? Can't you just speak the truth without cruelty and rudeness?
So do you know anyone like this? How do you deal with it?

I do, and it is a sign of weakness or fear. They feel safe online, because they will cower in the real world. Therefore, they will hide behind their computers, and start trying to get under other people's skin. I had one such instance, which I shared with you alreadyhappy. It just sucks that they don't have the courage to deal with it another waysurrender


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

Man people hide behind their computers,trolls and such lol. I just don't understand it,why be cruel and rude to get a point across to people? I know what you went threw and i am sorry you did. I should have warned you before hand but I thought it was just me it was happening too.
But this is not the only site I see this kind of thing on. I see it at other sites I use,some for money and some just because I enjoy the site itself. I am not sure if these people are like this in real life and maybe on the net is the only place they can vent or what? But even venting isn't the same as being rude to someone for no reason.


myLot reputation of 96/100. geminikid (1071)   ranked 5,282 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

It's pretty amazing, huh? I appreciate what you did, and it was very sweet. They are probably like that in real life, and act surprised wondering why they have no friends. With friends like that, you definitely don't need enemaslol


myLot reputation of 95/100. dawnald (9538)   ranked 409 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

@geminikid - you are right, it is easy to hide behind a screen persona and be rude and obnoxious when you wouldn't dream of it in real life. Some people are like that in real life too though!


myLot reputation of 96/100. patofgold23 (1684)   ranked 405 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

rude people are very unhappy with their lives..they are so bitter about soo many things and they take out their frustrations on other people....


i feel sorry for them...i know one personally and I feel sorry for him..but when he starts on his 'acts' again..i feel more annoyed than sorry.



myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

aw pat you are so sweet to keep being friends with someone like that! I am not sure if I could endure rudeness long enough to remain friends with someone.

Big bullies on Yuwie in capes who type everything in caps and leave big, blustering notices telling everybody how to behave?

Deleted the moron...

If it's somebody I like, I'll politely find some way to tell them. But if it's somebody who's rude all the time, hasta la vista!


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

lollol You mean SUPERDUD lmao. He is one of a kind that one. But anyhow I know what you mean. But how do you politely tell someone they are rude if for instance they are not your friend on the site? And if you tell them what if they don't care?


myLot reputation of 95/100. dawnald (9538)   ranked 409 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

I call him Stupidman....

If they're not your friend, you can either tell them publicly or not at all, I guess. And if they don't care (which often happens), I guess I don't care to know them...


myLot reputation of 94/100. purplealabaster (758)   ranked 4,755 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

Yeah, I hadn't thought about the "all in caps" typing. That is rather obnoxious. I did tell somebody one time that "all caps" was yelling, because she was really nice and I didn't want people to be offended by her. She apologized but said that she had problems with her eyes, and it was easier for her to read things in all caps. She said that she wished everybody would type like that. Most of the time, though, people just type like that to be annoying.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dawnald (9538)   ranked 409 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

There are people who do that because of eye problems, so you can't just assume they are being rude. This guy didn't have an eye problem and knew it was considered rude and did it anyway. But it really wasn't the caps so much as the things he were saying that put people off.


myLot reputation of 94/100. purplealabaster (758)   ranked 4,755 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

He probably used the all caps just to annoy people, as he sounds like the type that would do anything just to be obnoxious. thumbdown

Sometimes you can tell that someone is being rude by what they are saying. However, sometimes when I try to be funny in a sarcastic kind of way, I think that people might think I'm being rude or nasty. I honestly don't mean to be, but it is harder to tell "tone" on-line than in person or over the phone. Some people have a dryer sense of humor than others, so sometimes it might sound rude and nasty when they are just trying to play and have fun.

Obviously, though, there are statements that are just downright rude and uncalled for. I do not know why people feel the need to be that way, but they are the same way in person, too. I do think that sometimes people feel better about themselves when they put others down. I never really understood that concept, but I do know that some people feel that way.


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

I always get your humor wubwub. But yes I don't get it either. The people I am talking about are more then ones that are just downright rude,and everyone notices it. I know we all have lives that can drive us nuts,every site everywhere. but why push that upon others who didn't do anything to you,ya know what I mean?


myLot reputation of 94/100. purplealabaster (758)   ranked 4,755 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

I do know what you mean. I think that some people are so miserable in their own lives that they want other people to be just as miserable as they are. I would much rather joke around and have someone lift my spirits or help someone else feel better, than bring everyone else down with me. It is much better when everyone is sharing laughter than when they are sharing misery, but I guess that other people just don't see things that way.


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

I agree with you purple. I love to "stalk" I mean joke around with my fellow friends here on mylot compared to making someone miserable.

I have run across people in forums who seem rude. Sometimes they say they didn`t mean to seem that way though. But others I guess just like to be that way. If they don`t agree with you they will be rude. People in real life can be the same way. They want the last word and want to be right no matter what. I just ignore them. There is no law that says you have to respond to a rude person.


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

You are right there is no rule. I guess i will have to keep that in mind.
I often don't agree with someone but I try my best to respect others opinions and try not to be rude about it. Even if I feel very strongly.

I really don't care if somebody is rude to me online. I mean what's the point getting affended by a few words? Well maybe for some people it effects them but me, I just let on pass by. I can't waiste my time listening to a rude person that make's things more complicated for me. I don't like to deal with things that get's in the way of me living my life.

Well some people are easily hurt. I will admit I am often a very touchy person. So that is why it bothers me so bad. I get what you are saying though.

Hi Babyangie,

Will some people actually doesn't know that the way they type the sentences sounds rude. Why I say this? because often I write something and when my partner reads it he told me that there is no friendliness in the way I wrote sentences but this doesn't mean of being careless its just for me English language is not my first language and I may speak it well but when it comes to writing its different.

But I do know some people too that to get what they want they always have to be rude. I know some people too that replies into some of the discussion with rude words and thus are really obvious. And to answer your question about does being rude make somebody happy I would say yes. Some people are happy to live a miserable life and that what they become. Happiness and being nice is really not part of it. If you get some of this things just let it go and don't get it affect you.

Happy Myloting


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

I never thought of the people who don't write English well. I am sure sometimes it may look like to others you are being rude when you have no intent to do so. I try my best to fully read and understand everything I read. Which is not always easy for me. But if I mistake them or can not read it I usually ask what they meant before i jump to conclusions.

Oh, I definitely know how you feel. I have come upon these people here in mylot and other online sites. They're indeed a bunch, and worst, they feel that they own the site. But I guess fretting and stressing up with these people would do no-good to you, your day, your system. So, I would just read a line or two, then completely ignore the post.

Perhaps there's some sore of insecurity going in with the real lives, that's why the torment of their existence screams out inversely with their posts. There are those who have no voice in their meager lives that's why they'd love to take the limelight (to the point of being rude) here online.

The one thing that they want most is to torment the readers and the topic starters. Having to react to these childish rudity would only lead you to anger for something that could be completely avoided.

So, in my side of the coin, I would rather just ignore, rather than put my precious mylot time reacting to the unending qualms of their voiceless existence.


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

Yes many have suggested to just ignore. I try to be nice to everyone on here,and answer every response when my time permits me to do so. But if I just ignore it I might come off rude,then again I am sure others would notice the rudeness and understand.
Yes they have no voice other than online,and they choose to abusive people online because of their own issues. It is sad but very very true.

for sure. i know some people on forums who really dont care about the way they present themselves. sometimes i wanna tell them to stop but i hate to take the role of moderator and be a tattle tail.

My mother used to tell me no one liked a tattle tale. So I can understand what you mean. And yes the moderator is completely capable to handle these kinds of people. I just know that if I was coming off rude or something I would want to know and remedy the issue. But it does seem like these people don't care at all.

Hi there!
There are some of the members who just do not mind writing offensive language. Probably, they want to show to others that they are better than them and they damn care about politeness. I think those who are rude, are not welcomed on the social networking sites and later or sooner, others start ignoring them. If someone respond to my discussion in a rude manner, I just ignore him/her and refrain from posting my comments. I on my part, try to be as humble and polite as possible, even if I have different views.


myLot reputation of 99/100. babyangie27 (1202)   ranked 289 out of 35,175 in people  3 months ago

This is the same way I am. I do my best to be polite and nice when it comes to different views about things. I do think it would be in my best interest to ignore and avoid further contact with anyone who is being rude. I will do my best in the future to remember that.
