This journal entry is my opinion and it does not reflect the views of the VR admin in anyway shape or form.
The recent activities of the mob mentality seen in the past few days both sicken me and disgust me to the point of actually taking a moment and putting my thoughts here.
I do not know how you can try to validate such immature, childish and mob behavior. There is no excuse for it. Not only is there no excuse for it, there is also no rhyme or reason.
Any member of VR has the right to click the button and choose what number they want to give a profile. There is no guidelines, no specifics, no anything on how a person should, or can, judge a profile. The only guidelines are personal ones. Which in no way have anything to do with VampireRave as a whole.
People do not seem to understand this. And this remains clear since I have seen people trying to bully others into giving them a higher rating.
Just because YOU think YOU deserve a higher number on the scale does not give you the right to take away the freedom of the person rating the profile. You've chosen to rate them what you felt they deserved. If you rated a 10, then that was YOUR choice. YOURS and YOURS alone. If they felt like YOU deserved a 1, than that is THEIRS and THEIR chose alone. You have no right to bully any member about something as meaningless as a rating on a website.
You should know better and set better examples. Not only for those around you, but for yourself. What you are doing is no different than the children on the playground who beat up kids because they are different. Different in the sense of making looking, acting and thinking different. It makes you and those who do the same look like nothing more than a tool.
Do not try and play the victim to me. Because you are FAR from the victim. You are the perpetrator of what you receive. It seems to me that over the course of time I have seen the same problems arise from the same people. It's become quite the habitual issue.
You want to prove that you are something different than stand up and take responsibility for your actions and those that have acted in a way that is not acceptable. Now it seems to me that since the problems have arisen within the past few days and light has been called to the situation and people are speaking out about it, you've chosen to put other's on the cross so you do not have to take your lashings. If you are going to play a martyr, then you might as well play the full role and see how it feels to have the nails puncture your flesh just like the rest of the others will feel.
Personally, and this also is my personal opinion and has no reflection on VR as a whole or on an individual level, I feel that you are undermining what Vampire Rave is about. You are undermining the right to chose what we as Vampire Rave members have been given a choice to do by the maker of this website. Not only are you undermining it, you are also making it a mockery and using it to bully people. Which is inexcusable. Personally, if I was the one who spent all the time making this site, putting my sweat and tears into it, I would be deeply offended. So offended that I would disband you since this is a constant issue and I am sure will not be the last time this happens.
You want to block me and rate me whatever you wish, that is fine. You have ever right to do what you chose. I do not care. If my status lowers, oh well.I will not die, I will not lose that many moments of my life, I will not lose anything.
However, if you send me personal messages complaining about my right to express my feelings I will not hesitate to, and let me put this crudely, 'tear your ass up'. I will not tolerate whining taking up spare moments in my day.
And now since we've come to the end... it's time to move along.
Have a pleasant day and evening.
