I really can't believe I have to post this in a public place with adults running the site. I don't know who is in charge of this thing but you need to watch your boards. There is a serious case of cyber bullying going on out there. There is someone cruising all of the boards leaving negative feedback and having people's stories removed for no reason other then the fact that they are jealous that they can't write and be creative like that. They start out sounding legit like giving tips on how to fix your formats and your characters and what not. Then they jump all over everything you write and post and put the same negative feedback statement on all of your stories until they are removed. Now, I have seen four different authors dealing with this same issue. So, it's not just me and my stuff. At first, I thought it was a hack from some bot that was just randomly going through stuff, but they sign in as guest. I changed my account three times and all three times the same guest has favored followed and reviewed my stuff until it was removed.

I can't put a stop to them personally because they have their account linked to an autobot system that reroutes my e mails to a porn site. Classy idea but not original. They just change their status and change their account by like one letter and boom influx of negative feedback again. Now, I don't mind someone reviewing and leaving feedback on my stories. That's cool. That's how we do our creative process and that's the whole reason why I share and ask questions and what not. I want the feedback and the critiques. I want people to feel free to express themselves on my stuff and enjoy it.

It's hard to enjoy someone's work when there are so many negative comments flying in from the same source who is too chicken to stand up and take claim to their comments. This source has also favored my first account and went through and left the same repetitive comments. They aren't helpful to any of my feedback. They're random and they don't even critique the story. It's more like personal insults like in the elementary school play ground. Now, most of my work is rated M So I don't have children following my stories. I like to cuss and share personal details. Deal with it. If you don't like it, don't follow it and don't read it. It's a free country and you do have the right as an American citizen to just say "no" and scroll on passed me. Or if your not from the USA, you still have the right to scroll right on passed me. I don't get offended and I sure as hell don't go around removing people's stories because I don't approve of the content or formats. I assume people don't have college educations and aren't English majors so they don't know how to put together a professional looking piece of work. It's the internet. Most people don't have professional work up here.

Just saying. I want to keep the peace and I want to be a productive member of the creative society on here and I want my readers to enjoy my work. Hell, I want them to read my first account too and enjoy it. So, cut me some slack please. I am not a professional writer and I don't have a degree in English lit or journalisim so yeah. My stuff will lack format and it may even lack characters you like, but don't remove my stuff because you don't approve of a character. That's just chicken shit and lame. That's like watching TV and banning the show because the actor is an ass on TV. It's not their fault the character is an ass. They get paid either way you slice it.

So, in conclusion here I say have fun and enjoy yourselves out there. It's the holiday season here in the US and I am feeling generous with my words here. Life is too short to worry about some stupid cyber bully hiding behind a keyboard and a computer screen sending out negative vibes. Have a beer and loosen up. Peace
