Why Do SO Many Ppl Act Like Vultures in These Forums?

[MiaSnow Myriam]

Seriously, why?

[Seven Overdrive]

Best advice is to never take any comment made here personally.  Some people are just more gruff with their comments than others.  I know I am sometimes even though I don't mean to be, but that is usually because I am running low on coffee. :smileyhappy:

Define "vulture" please. 

One speaking their mind and another not liking what was said is not being a "vulture".  I could be defined as a vulture when I decide to jump in on some rant or whine or someone venting over nothing.  That's why I want a definition.........so I can answer your question.

Boredom?

Then of course there is this scene from Conan The Moderator.

i'm down with ppl speaking their mind.

i like to do it too^^ i know i dont come across as wonderful all the time. most of us don't. i say some stupid crap, thats for sure.

but, a wake of vultures is how i mentally picture some of the commenters here! ready to swoop in & rip the OP's apart.... adding in unintended meanings, saying personally attacking things, & generally just making a stink in the air... leaving me with a bad taste for the forums.

it's not just here. i guess it is forums in general. i've saw a bunch of new moms in a little group i'm in, go apecrap on someone, making them flee in tears never to return. 

*sigh* idk, i just wish it wasnt like that is all.

I just wish everyone voted Republican too.....it doesn't happen though.  I live with it and do no complaining (at least publically).  Maybe you need to do the same? 

People are individuals........they don't think the same and they don't act the same.  Wouldn't the world be boring if they did? 

 

[Peggy Paperdoll]

You better not Storm.........I'll sue for slander.  :smileylol:

[Brenda Connolly]

I blame this Godawful software. It drives people to madness.

 

 

 

[Jacki Silverfall]

I thought that's what trolls were   Meh, what do I know.

I think it's because people can be anonymous, faceless, therefore able to say what they want to regardless of how it makes the OP feel. Often it is useless blabber and should be taken as much. Or they didn't read the post correctly, or they just aren't in a nice mood.

Just my 2 cents

Have you ever heard the term 'over thinking?'

Yeah... I tend to do that.  Hard habit to break. Hehe

It's relatively few people that do this I think, and I think they do it because they need to take a jolly good sh1t (sluggish bowels can make people quite irritable)

Actually, I'm being a "vulture" (by your definition).........and I'm enjoying it a little too.
