Can we please not talk about stuff that we talk about on AIM/MSN/Yahoo/Any messanger thingy? It's causing a lot of problems and drama. We all need to take a step back and realize some things.
1: We will probably will never meet half of the people you talk to. Why not be nice to them and have a good Internet friend?
2: Talking about people is bad. It's just as bad here as in real life. You don't want people saying things about you, now do you? I know I don't.
3: People are sarcastic. We're a pretty sarcastic bunch, ya think? What a lot of people don't realize is that you can't tell tone of voice through a computer. When you must be sarcastic, try to make it obvious please.
People don't like to fight. Please don't add fuel to the flames by making mean-spirited comments back. Just report it and move on. If the user continues to bother you, put them on your ignore list.
