I do hope that no one takes offence to this post, this post is not an accusation, nor is it an attack on anyone in particular, this is me giving my opinion on a topic that no one will discuss out loud, but we do all have an opinion about it.

There has been alot of discussion of late about people who have more than one account here on thoughts, on one hand there is nothing wrong at all with doing this, i myself commented recently about how, when i first arrived here, i wrote all my feelings down and expressed myself openly and honestly, i could do this because i didn't know anyone personally here, but now, well, when i feel angry and upset i can't bring myself to write about it because there are so many people here who know me now, i wouldn't want to worry or upset them, plus at the moment i am struggling with trust, i know its silly really, but this is the reason i might be tempted to start a second, totally anonymous blog account!

then there are the people who tell lies, big lies, for attention, or just because they don't want to reveal their true selves yet, but then, again, they make friends and find that people really do care, they start to feel bad, but think if they come clean then they might lose their new found friends, but i feel that isn't true, i think if you wrote a true and honest post explaining why the lies began and how now you realise that you want to be yourself here, maybe people would understand,

I know a couple of weeks ago, there was someone here, who came to spy on another member, now although she publicly came clean, many people decided that what she had done was wrong, and it i think was a partial factor in the member not coming here as much anymore, that person feels as though their writing has been stiffled now, because they can't be honest with their words anymore, fearing that the 'spy' might come back,  so i guess he would seriously consider starting a new account.

then there is the other kind of attention seeker, the one who wants pity, has many many many friends, is very popular, but cannot stand anyone to disagree with them, but rather than argue their point, they have other accounts, to use purely for argument and confrontation.

Bringing to attention the other problem, when you are a long term member, we know how you write, we get to know you very deeply through your words, so it can be hard to fool us when you pretend to be someone else.

Then there are just the annonymous guys, the ones who really keep themselves to themselves, they are doing no harm and who would know if they had multiple accounts.

i think if things keep on going the way they are that it is going to become very hard to trust anyone here, people are starting to feel as though their kindness and good nature is being taken advantage of, we here do care very much if someone is unhappy, and we worry and maybe talk to you like we are you parents or big sister/brother, that doesn't mean we disrespect you, it means that we care deeply about your welfare, so there really is no need to lie about yourself here on thoughts, we welcome everyone, we all have our problems, and have no right to judge anyone's life choices when i am sure most of us have not lead our lives perfectly

right now i feel

Disapointed
concerned
worried
scared
lonely
doubtful
wary
gutted

that is the first time in weeks i have been honest about how i feel inside but i dont want anyone to worry, i just want absent friends to return, and for us all to get along, love and feel loved without having to be dishonest, i want to trust new people when i meet them, and i want to be truthful about whats happening in my life, i want to write in my blogs, i want to read every entry that is written by others, i don't want to know everyones full name and address/phonenumbers, but i do want to feel that i am reading honesty and getting to know a real person, i don't want to hear my heart break again by someone pulling at my heart strings, playing with my emotions, when all that person wanted was popularity and hits! i want to make true friends and i want to keep them x

i repeat, this is not an attack on a particular person, there have been many cases of this kind of thing lately so please dont take offence

Peace

thank you missmarie. Take it from me, when you find that the one you thought you were talking to and carring for is someone entirly different it hurts, it would be better if a person would be honest, then we can work past it together instead of finding out and hating them for there deceit.

I didnt realize that so many of you actually KNOW each other.
I think even tho' you know each other you should still speak whatever is on your mind for that is the way we come to love each other in the first place.
If someone has a problem with someone else they should take it to the source. That avoids alot of bullshit.
I hope whatever you are talking about you can all get it cleared up because that what family is all about!
Love ya!
Peace

I just wish everyone would be comfortable in who they are.
Writing what is on my heart, is why I come here.
What would be the use of lying?
Maybe some are just lonely and use this for amusement.
Maybe some get too easily offended, and care what others think way too much.
I am at a point in my life, after all of the as of late, drama, to just be myself.
If someone does not like me for what I write, or what I comment on, oh well, that is their problem.
We all just need an attitude adjustment.
Just be yourself, and like it for once.
Maybe I am too opinionated, but that is just the way I am, and I like it.
Good post Marie.
Issues, need not be issues, if we take an attitude, of, not everyone is going to agree with us, and that is perfectly ok.
Peace.

A positive energy is what brought me to this site just a couple of weeks ago (is that all it is??!)... despite there clearly being a difficulty, it didn't affect the overall energy, which is loving, welcoming and positive :-)

Although I'm new to blogging, I am no newcomer to forums, having moderated a football fans forum with my husband for nearly 2 years. Let me tell you itgot pretty harshn there from time to time, and I think we were seen as the voices of reason!
Yes, a writing style has an indelible signature... try as they might, there'll always be a Freudian slip somewhere ;-)

At least making it clear from the start that you're aware of multiple accounts will help towardheir eradication and/or proper use.

Lre sies such as this do tend to attract people who like to speak in 'absolutes', but if we all take step back (and if I take my own advice sometimes!) we will see the bigger picture and understand the context of that post or poster's standpoint.

Great post Marie, and much needed imho.

Hugs, Merlyn xxx
