You appear online a lot, someone has a negative opinion.
You write a blog about things you do in real life, someone has a negative opinion. (Therefore 'get a life' etc, is barely an insult, because oh people must have an opinion on said life!)
Can anyone win? :|
Why not just focus on ourselves and live and let live?
Idgi!
agreed with matthew09 do you think judgemental people only exist on here LOL
i think you've just experienced it more cuz ppl are more open behind a screen but some people are just judgemental in general
And while I agree with Matthew09 & BengalBoy as well, I think the difference is that on the internet, it's easier to insult people you don't know. In real life, you could hate a coworker for years and they may never figure it out.
In real life, you remember that everyone is selfish and their main focuses are their own goals. So you tiptoe around them so you can get on with your own selfish goals without any problems.
Online, everyone forgets that. Selfishness is bad here and you will be called out on it. XD
But a lil' consideration for others should not be a rare thing, right?
Why try to make someone miserable?
yoshitomi honestly tengaged is less judgemental than a lot of sites i've been on, it boils down to some people are judgemental especially on the internet IMO
matthew09 why so negative there? You think you need to tell me that the world is judgemental, I know. Doesn't make it right, or good though. I am allowed to not like it, even if I only briefly discussed tg opinions here. Bengalboy no LOL, on any site, and indeed anywhere IRL you'll get judgemental people. In a lot of cases, people should keep their noses out and accept the choices of others, but I acknowledge that on the internet especially, that isn't changing.
It's just a shame seeing people get scrutinised for both staying online a lot, playing 10 frooks a day or whatever, AND getting off here, going out and having fun IRL. I mean, people should either make their minds up, or just keep their noses out and do whatever THEY wish to do.
princessteepee you make a perfect point! People say "Get a life" "You have no life" so often but then proceed to bring up what you have shared about your life outside of Tengaged. It's so hypocritical! Good blog hun.
I love this blog!
This site brings out the worst in everyone and I think it's definitely important to see that we aren't so different after all. +15, happy holidays (even though you probs don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK but still)!
Etaco75 thank you so much < 3 Haha, no we don't celebrate it, ALTHOUGH a lot of supermarkets and shopping centres are having 'black Friday' :X I work in retail, so I'm psyching myself up for it lol!
Hope you have a lovely thanksgiving though hun < 3
Tengaged is judgmental about really dumb shit.

Other sites are a bit more judgmental than tengaged in general though.
Games/gaming websites like epicmafia, league of legends, WoW, Dota, and many forums (think jokers updates) are a bit more hostile than tengaged though.
I think this may be due to the fact that on tengaged there are repercussions for general toxicity (while in certain groups in other games toxicity and being overly judgmental is accepted and embraced).
And of course in life in general people are going to be judgmental. It's in our nature.

So while Matthew09 and BengalBoy have a point, tengaged isn't the only place you find petty judgmental people...and it's by far not the worse, I feel the point Alicia was trying to make was that when we're on a website such as this we should strive to be a little more accepting (although of course that's quite frankly impossible), but as a community we haven't done that.
To sum it up, I think she meant we should try not to be such fucking dicks over stupid shit from time to time. She wasn't implying tengaged is the only source of judgmental people as matthew09 proposed.
JamesMPrincessTeePee It's time for us as a people to start making some changes. Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live, and let's change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasn't working, so it's on us to do what we gotta do, to survive.
Sorry my statement sounded negative, I was not trying to be negative, but I guess my point was like this is the world we live in so why complain about it? I mean what I have realized in the world that I cannot change certain people, so I just go on with my business & enjoy my life. Yes I do agree with you Princess & James about this site being really bad, but there are some people that are actually nice, just like in the world. (few) maybe but hey we're still here.
I just learned not to take this site so seriously, cause no one knows me personally over a key board. And I think it's being filled with kids in age rank from 13-17 so I mean the maturity level won't really be that high sometimes.
