Locked comms. Do people on LJ have a right to lock a community and expect the people who are members to respect the privacy of that community?

I think people should be able to discuss what they want to discuss, and if they feel they need to do it in a locked comm. they should be able to do that. Copy/pasting comments from other comms., locked or not, is bullying, as far as I'm concerned ( ... )

Yeah, I don't know what to do about the booting out thing. I've only been in the fandom since January 2011. From my point of view, more blame goes to the nanny comm for c/ping in the first place. If they let others alone, none of this would happen. At least that's how I see it from my limited perspective. I'm really sorry you were kicked out. You're right, it doesn't seem to help, does it? The asshole is still there or will get in somehow ( ... )

The mean nonnies could be argued to have the biggest hand in this problem, and believe me I'm not defending their actions, but like the old saw goes, two wrongs don't make a right. Lashing out at others when you're hurt may be human nature, but it's not a nice thing to do. I think it's a slippery slope to start down the path of saying what that person/group is doing is worse than what that person/group is doing, if what any of them are doing is hurting other people.

All of us can only be responsible for our own behaviors. I give Adam the respect to make his own choices - god knows he could give two shits about what my opinion(or any other fan's) is of his personal relationships, nor should he. It's his life, we've all got our own to be getting on with.

You're right, it's not worth saying one is worse than the other. It's just that I feel some people are defending the nannies. That could be my mistake. When we read something, we bring our own baggage with us, and it affects how we understand what we read.

It's his life, we've all got our own to be getting on with. Amen to that.

Oh, sweetie, it's not full of hate. The haters are just loud. Just like always. :P We have lots of sweet people here, and the fandom is what we make of it. If we're positive the more positive the fandom is. If we're negative the more negative the fandom is.

This is the law of the world. And I always choose positive because negativity is just so last year. :) *hugs*
