site flamers, read this :] Options

Don't like this site? Perhaps you hate it? Then you've come to the right page - this whole page is especially for you :)

What is a flamer? A flamer is a person who doesn't like a site for whatever deluded reason and instead of doing what a normal person does, closing the window and not bothering to go back, they start e-mailing the owner with cusses, threats, insults and whatever else, or they repeatedly spam guestbooks, tagboards, messageboards with the same crap. Depending on how deranged they are they might start harrassing people who visit the site regularly, sister sites, affilates or just some unfortunate visitor. They believe they can do whatever they like just because they want to and get away with it. Are you a flamer?

Ok, you don't like the site - that's fine I don't expect that everyone will like it, you are entitled to your opinion. I made this site for "me" not anyone else and you tend to overlook that fact. However, just because you have that opinion doesn't give you the right to start spamming, flaming or whatever else in the guestbook, on the message board or to me personally by e-mail. Sure, some of you lack maturity and will go ahead and do it anyway regardless of what I say - it's to be expected from immature children :) In the guestbook and on the message board you look and sound just as stupid as you are, you may get attention from other people (which is what you want, no?) but most people ignore you, including me - most likely I'll leave your messages on the site for mild amusement, unless of course you start cussing and threatening either myself or others like the uneducated child you are then I just delete your crap and ban your IP. E-mail is pretty simple - I just block you :) Oh, and signing up for multiple e-mail accounts so I think you are different person doesn't work either, it doesn't make me think more people hate my site - it makes me wonder (briefly) just how screwed up exactly you are.

Anyway, what most of you like to say is "you suck" or "your site sucks" or some other trash like some jerry springer guest - now let's see, the english language isn't one of your better qualities. If you really HAVE to insult me, then at least surprise me with your intelligence and wit. Maybe you simply disagree with something on the site - that's an easy one - get over it. Not everyone in life agrees with every single person about everything! However you may think that this does not apply to you but one day you are going to have to deal with it. Not everyone is going to agree with you or even care for your opinion, some will strongly disagree with you and will express that disagreement. You can't always have your own way :) There's # billion people in this world.

One thing that probably amuses me the most about you guys is, nine times out of ten I can bet that in real life you wouldn't ever speak to people the way you "think you can" on the internet - hiding anonymously behind your little computer. Ok, there are exceptions and some of you are probably as dumb in real life as you express yourself on the net. How many of you would dare walk up to me or someone else in the street and say all the things you say or intend on saying on here? I bet not many - so why do you think you can do it on the net? Do it in the street and someone will probably turn round and clump you one. You aren't as anonymous as you may like to believe you are. ;)

Jealousy - a lot of this flaming if not all is down to jealousy plain and simple. Do you not realise that everytime you start mouthing off to a site owner about how their site sucks that what you are really saying is you are jealous? You should hear yourselves! Look, there is envy and then there is jealousy. I envy people, I envy their dolls, their graphics, whatever - instead of flaming the person I usually write them a nice e-mail complimenting them on their work and often admitting I wish I could be as good as they are at whatever it is they do. Jealous people become spiteful and bitchy and flame! Get it? If you are a non-flamer reading this and you own a website and have had people flame you then remember to take it as a compliment, bad sites rarely get flamers, good sites and/or popular sites will always have flamers because of all this jealousy. "You suck" really means "You have an awesome site and I'm jealous"

So dear flamers, over this past year you have helped me build this site, so I'd like to thank you really for all the wonderful compliments I have received and the good boot up the bum you've given me when I've needed it. So click the cross little one and get over it. Still gonna flame? Surely you aren't THAT stupid!
