About Getting along with mylotters

Philippines
June 19, 2011 4:14am CST
Hello there, I know to most of us getting along with each other may seem so easy. yes, it depends on how you write or show yourself in the community. before i've always get along with the others even though am not the most popular one. well, are you kidding me? the most popular. Sometimes I don't feel like having tons of responses like MsyD does, it makes me crazy and blow my mind to the point that am thinking blank looking at uncommitted responses but that's fine because i can take my time. but the getting along thing is hard sometimes, most specially if you have never engage in a serious heating debate with you're friends in mylot. i have heard experience about people being trick and back stabbed upon.some can misunderstood you, or get mad at you or have some upsetting moments with you. oh, well i have issues too with response collectors, and merely friend adders some one did say during the conference that i was a really snobbish. but people have their moods you know. we aren't that perfect, i know even if it's perfectly good excuse, it's a fact... These are different people through out the world and it can also challenge here talking to people with different; we got the beauty, brains, handsome (profile photo), populars, losers, trolls, liars and backstabbers..all together in this one wonderful community. So, do you think you're getting along with other mylotters well?

Hi Letran! You talkin' about me again? do you think you're getting along with other mylotters well? I could get on with one and all but I know that not all of them want to get on with me. Some misunderstand the way I express myself and I am considered harsh, strict and even a know-it-all by some. This doesn't alter the way I am though because if those people took a step back and a few more seconds to read again they just might get a different impression. There are also people who take things personally and very seriously and don't realise that they could loosen up a bit on here. This is a fun place and no point in coming here to vent our anger, bash or stab - unless of course they have so many offline frustrations that they have no other place to let go. In that case some of us will be their targets and c'est la vie. Best that they take it out on someone who can put up with it rather than another who might crumble I have always said that myLot is a slice of life therefore, just like offline, we have no choice but to take the good, which is the majority, with the bad.

Even though I may be repeating myself yet again, I must say that it is our own choice how we use myLot, how much we let others affect our time and our activity here and how much we intend letting them get under our skin. It is our choice to stay and put up with them or leave and then regret our choice I made mine a long time ago dear friend and I have never regretted it. There should never ever be arguments and flaming on here. If there is we have a report button which we should (must!) use and admin will deal with the problem. We should do this long before it becomes something serious because then it is often toolate to deal with it. MyLot do not get involved in personal disputes between users and I have seen several since I joined that have been on the losing side - but it was their own choice. As for being popular - many respond because they know that I will comment back, giving them another opportunity to post again (and earn) and that could be all that is needed to get lots of responses on your topics too. It is a huge job to keep up with them all I can assure you! But it's FUN and that's what I come here for!

Hello Aunt D. Oh, well, am sorry because you are the popular and the most popular once always gets the best rumors from other lotters. i think i still have a very big exposure about you. probably they will see it on the positive way :D. there were some people really serious but i didn't mind. though, they were some comedians that turned serious sometimes but i don't mind either. but the one thing that bothers me is that some arguments with usual lotters gets ugly that leaves people forcing themselves to leave the site. well, that's why am a snob sometimes

Everybody can use and respect the word "diversification". With a diversified community, like what we have here in myLot, a lot of cultural, personal, belief and principle clashes may ensue. Of course, it is the responsibility of the people if they will get too caught up on a comment or criticism. Much like in the real world, "living" (or posting/commenting in the case of myLot) has responsibility always been tagged with it. You can be wrong or right at what you are trying to say but in additional you should be responsible enough of what you are doing. So with this post, I think it all boils down to the choice of an individual on how he will get along with others. Each individual have the options, it's just a matter of how they will use those options. You can choose to be the troll, the liar, the popular or the losers. Your choice. But the bottom line is just be responsible for that choice you made. I hope I made some points here to ponder.

Reading your views here, I have found the letters that I can use to push you onwards. They will be S at the beginning and E at the end because that is how I felt after reading here!

Hmmm..that comment of your mysD made me thinking! You always add spice and mystery with the way you comment or respond. Now, can you give me a clue on what that mystery thing that can push me onwards here? A lot of words starts with S and ends in E. Maybe we can try to play hangman in here! Haha!

dear LK, I always tried to be good with having relationship here in mylot. I always tried to be good with mylotters,even if they don't agree with my topic and respond with arguments i always stayed away from debate and respond/comment back nicely. Things changed just recently...and i do admit that i become mad..of not so mad,i just express my feelings freely when someone wrote something that i find "foul" (ok you know that) No matter how we tried to be good when some are there to annoy and made statements that is not good esp when it regards to a specific community...we cannot control ourselves. okay ...i still keep a good relationship with mylotters...i am keeping as possible as I can.. ..thu..we can not please everyone... have a great week days my dear brother

Hello Jaiho, I think you're doing a great job. not to mention with the trouble that you had gone through already i am very sure with all honesty here that you are innocent. I never really like the way they treated and come to think of it you were one of those who have close with other people with different nationalities. but remember, pinoy friends are still is the best, even if were not perfect

I've got to agree with this one. MyLot is like the real world with all the bad stuff included. I admit, I can be an @sshole but I only become one when the other is being an @sshole to me. I try to prove my point in an acceptable conduct but you really can't avoid miscommunication here. One phrase can mean the other to another user and that is a potential flame war. Some even get mad so easily once you tell them that you disagree with their point and these are the people I honestly don't get, and don't have the time "getting". The thing is, if you don't wanna accept my point that's fine, that will always be my point. You can't change how people think by getting angry at them, let alone starting a flame war because of it. If they don't want to accept it, that's their problem anymore, not mine. As for the trolls, I've been attacked by one and I didn't like it. That was when I still cared about my user rating. Now they can do pretty much what they want with it: rank me negatively or whatever, I'll still be able to post here and respond to discussions however I like. My point is, I have a life and obviously they don't that's why they think ruining other people's ratings can make a person mad. Backstabbers, I haven't encountered one before. I only have one friend here in real life and, so far he's staying away from my girlfriend. Beauties, hmmmm... there are a lot here, I just can't decide who. Brains, I've encountered a number of them and most of their discussions I just passed by simply because I couldn't understand what they're trying to say. Handsome, that's obviously me. :P (ran out of smileys) Populars, they're all over the place sprinkling their popularity to the myLot community. Losers, so far their numbers are decreasing but that's just my count. Liars, I may be one of these too but you won't even know if what I've put up here is a lie, right?LOL

Hello frontvisions, Not as brutal and racism as the other social networking sites but still we get to have different arguments here. some people can be insecure and insensitive, sometimes i can be insecure too with others realistic comments and responses on me. well, i wasn't backstabbed for a long time. but recently, it was my friends was.
• Philippines

Yep, no can backstab you but your friends, right? It can be harsh but it happens.

Hello there, We all here have a choice to whom you along with the question is, are those people you want are happy along with you, so the feeling should be mutual inorder to have a common feelings to each other.. Do I make little bit romantic scene... nope my point is we are all aiming here that if you make a discussion "it should be" blockbuster or everybody puts a comments and become active discussion.. The question is how to do that - is there any technique required but one of mylotter revealed that not secret or technique here of having good discussion or good reputation among others. Speaking of reputation thats is the right word I'm looking for getting along with other mylotters... then enjoyment will be us....

Hello Visavis, It's hard to have a mutual feelings to each other, though common interest are fine. i don't have a secret, but sometimes people just come in and talked to me. but probably one that made me popular a bit was because i kept responding to their discussions in the past. well, the enjoyment is from us but am no comedian. i see you getting those nice conversations with others as you talk to them.

Hello LK I think i get along well with all MYLOTTERS. there is difference of opinions sometimes but that is natural as every one has different ways of seeing things.Has there be not a clash in opinions we can't reach to solution of any problem. There have been instances in my life in MYLOT when i had some heated arguments with people but that doesn't mean i take it seriously i forgot that after logging out from that discussion.I don't take things very seriously as this is the part of life & you have to live with the people who may not think at the same wavelength as you do.

Hello sjvg, I am sure you did, though there was a time that we had some disagreement but that way just once. having different people talk to each other for quite a while though. you better be careful with arguing with people. lower star means lower earnings if you're also aiming for higher earning. though you can be honest all you want as well, just a warning about neg raters out there. fortunately, am the one who always rate positive.

I know my reputation is bit down which may be the constraint for my earning but can't help it if someone don't agree with my opinion. I have learnt lesson from my experiences & from the guidance of some veterans like Mysd not be provoked by someone & never leave your patience & always be polite to the people on every social site as you are being watched by everyone there. I know the impact of disagreements as people don't like you but that doesn't mean i should leave honesty & give molded responses.

I get along with other mylotters, well I think I do. I try and stay out of the heated discussions to avoid those types. Not everybody can get along with each other, just like in our everyday life outside of mylot. Somewhere down the line your bound to come across a few of those kind of people and usually they don't last long here anyway...I've been here for 5years and have seen plenty come and go... There is such a wide range of people here surly we're bound to clash with someone...

Hello pinklily, i am sure you do. i believe those who are in the heated situation doesn't want to take care of their reputation and are freely wanted to express themselves regardless of the negative rating. it's nice to see you here after been for five years. it's ahonor to meet a newbie in this site. have a nice day

I try to get along with everyone here. I do not have the time to argue with other people online. I work on here every day and I respect everyone else's views. We do not always have to agree on everything but I will not argue with them about my thoughts either.
• Philippines

Hello steph, I agree, arguing only leads to darn violence and i don't want violence. i do post here every and ever time i am late, it becomes a problem to me that i should exert more effort. well, not agreeing on anything is alright but we shouldn't include our emotions with it. sometimes it's better to talk with out adding too much hate and negative reaction

My long tenancy in mylot has taught me one thing, there is no permanent foes in mylot. We have to accept the fact that we are interacting with unknown people who might be in different seasons (moods) and not to take matters too personal. I have acquired many friends here who thrilled me with their colorful characters. Some are serious while some are witty. Some are super-sensitive while some are open minded. Regardless of their ages, I can fit in to everyone's whims and fancies without problem. That may explain the reason of my unfading passion in mylotting. I believe I am friends to all unless there are wolf in sheep's kind which I am not aware of.

I think I get along with the majority of mylotters, but I know there are a few I'd rather do without, but the only thing I can do is not have these people as a friend. That way it is harder for them to find any post I start, yet they can and do find me on my friends discussions.

Well, not as popular as mydiana, and if they are probably popular only because when taking college classes, it can get interesting and my other main topic, dogs...I think dogs is my most popular, and that I have dog lovers, (especially one dog lover i n u) as friends and I can talk about dogs all day..lol

I think I get along pretty well with everyone here. Most of the people I "know" are ones that I can disagree with but it doesn't get hostile and they are friendly--when the discussion/disagreement is over, it is over and forgotten. Most of my interactions are very pleasant.
• Philippines

Hello Dragon54u, That's good to know and there's no question to that since you've been here longer than i can remember.the hostile once existed when the admin or the moderators weren't showing or giving their presence to us by deleting those irritating violated post. i think also forgiving from a heated conversation can be a good impact for every one

I get along very well with the people I´m most interested in. But even though I accept a lot of friends, not all of them are my friends. And I cannot and will not answer a lot of posts by people who have asked me to be my friends but who are only wanting to earn a bit more. I only answer a few posts so I have to choose the ones I´m really interested in. Many are not made by a friend. If someone does not like what I do it is a pity because it is the only thing I can do and no more. As for the use of language, my native language is not English. So. I think that before getting mad at me because I did not word my thoughts in a good way, they can learn Spanish and have the same discussion in my language Take care!

Hello maruicha, we all have a choice to choose which topic should we be responding. that is something that every one should also respect about and not complaining if they're aren't getting the responses they need.. to be honest, i love to learn new languages, specially spanish

Hi Letran, I enjoy being a member here which includes enjoying a great deal of members and I interactions. I am not aware if some do not get along with me, or at least I have never been directly told. I post with full honesty and only to anything I find of interest. I do not intentionally go looking for debates as I come here specifically to enjoy my time. I don't take likings to debates offline and or online so I would rather skip any debating situations. Like offline life, while online there are differences of opinions and while I respect everyone for theirs I would hope mine is respected as well. It is a wonderful community and would hope all that utilize it continue to do so in a healthy manner for all.

Hello hardworkinggurl, Well, some one didn't agree with you once that mistakenly rated you negative for no reason but am glad that after all the struggle that you have in your post, you were able to revert back to your blue star. i hate the differences sometimes, it cause a lot of conflicts and arguments. but i guess that's just part of life that we can't avoid.

Well thankfully till date I have really faced no problems in getting along in mylot. Regarding getting response, even sometimes my discussions also finds no takers. I think may be what is of my interest, may not be interesting to others. So I do not mind. I feel most of my friends respond to my discussions and I am grateful to them for responding positively.
• Philippines

I don't think so. Do we get along Let? Am I okay to talk with? I have friends here in Mylot, virtual friends and that include you Let. I treat you as one. I have Neil, Annavi, hex before I do not know where he is. There are Lilyofthorns, secretbear,redamethyst, piya, sorry for those I forgotten. I think I get along because I am on the safe side. I do not battle with other views, I just accept some response which are offensive, I do not treat it negative as it may give me some difficulty about my condition now. And I choose topic now. I am not sure with this one, maybe I get along or not, but I am okay with everyone. If they do not comment on my response, that is fine, if they did and they do not agree I just let them be. Again, people are different and we have to respect them and hopefully they do the same to us.

I am not having any problems and that may be due to the fact that I haven’t had time to start any new discussions and upset anybody! I do my very best to be polite and diplomatic whenever I can but there have been some tense moments during the time I have been a member here. They happened a long time ago and thankfully everything has been peaceful since then but, as I said, I am not as active as I used to be….

Hi LK! Being with mylot, I felt being heard and get a chance to express myself. Aside from being attached with art, I also love to be with my best friend- my laptop all the time ... Because, here I can do a lot of things for school, for the office and everything. Anyway, I only get along with few here specially those whom I have interacted consistently. Sometimes I also encounter responses that are not that pleasant but I just ignore them, I used to focus on positive and pleasant topics only. Everybody is entitled to his own opinion, but I admire it most when that opinion gives beautiful thoughts to everyone. Well, I am not sure too if everything that I have said is pleasant to other peoples ear. :-l
