On Blocking

Apr 17, 2012 12:39

Dear LJ, I'm sorry for abusing you like this, but let me get this tiny bit of frustration out.

[Rant Alert: Please avoid it if you're not in a mood for...uh....a rant. ]

I hardly ever 'block' people on Twitter unless they are obviously spam bots.
But if you tweet something rude and your only explanation is "I wasn't being rude, just being honest. It's called freedom of speech", the chances are I will block you.

Thanks, sweet Timsy..... ;w;
I usually stay out of trouble (= other comms, etc.) by staying within my comfort zone, so this was kinda new. X'D Live and learn, huh? ;3

Mmh... *sighs*

Well, it seems you can find such kind of dirty people everywhere... I'm not registered on Twitter (I started to make a registration but my account fell down 'cause I never had time enough to go tweeting ! XD) but I want to advice you not to listen to those stupidities...

"Truth must hurt", "Find in yourself" and so on... only dirty lines, and told this way, meaningless. Personnally, I'm sure you're right to get it as it came, "rude and condescending"... such a dirty mind... it's not worth it !

Please don't worry, and keep being our Dear Val ! ^^

Arama is the community, aramatheyidnt . It's basically a Japanese showbiz gossip comm.

Hahaha, you're funny... XD

Oh, thank you, dear! Yes, now that I've blocked them, I feel so much better. Sad, but true. ^^;;;

"Freedom of speech" is probably the most infuriating excuse ever. I'm like, "It means the US government can't make laws to restrict the speech of US citizens, nothing to do with your bullshit opinion on the internet =_____= Also, were we to call you a "complete fucking asinine moron", that would also be "freedom of speech" under your definition..."

But really I usually just decide to stop talking to the person at that point before I lose any more brain cells.

Hahahaha, yes, yes, I wanted to say something like "Great, that means I can say whatever I want back to you, too? And you can't complain!? Awesome!", but by then I just wanted no further interaction with this very passive-aggressive one and wanted to wrap things up. X'3

"They sound pretty decent in most other tweets, and yet the tweets they sent to some of us Dears, completely out of the blue, were plain rude. Why?"

Because in J-rock fandom, everyone, or almost everyone, will hate on Gackt and his Dears, simple as that. This is partly due to the bad reputation that got glued onto the Gackt fandom from the early days. In other cases, they just hate to hate, it's stupid and childish but apparently some people don't have a life.

*bows to #jesusshrug*

That is soooooooooo messed up. Yeah, you're right, some people have way too much time on their hand. I mean..., they hinted at my, and my friend's, spending too much on Twitter (which is totally none of their frigging business in the first place), but I'm at least having fun with my friends there. What is this person doing, looking at the tweets of total strangers, Dears, and deciding whom to make rude remarks to? Wow, that's productive. :D

And how come they never reveal anything about why they tweet GACKT and Dears so much and yet they're apparently not even a fan or not part of the fandom? What? Pfffffft.

Don't underestimate the power of Dears, you'd better come prepared or else... =w=

All hail Jesus Bale tbh

Exactly. It's like, I might spend too much time on twitter, but at least my life isn't so pathetic that I have to seek out people I know nothing about, just so I can attack them to make myself feel better.

Basic bitches lbr
They can't even come up with new material to attack Gackt and his fandom with. They were boring 8 years ago, they're still boring now.
