justaflygirl 0 #1 May 29, 2005 So I put up a post in the wind tunnel forum about my PMTS induction..... This morning I get a real nasty email from someone I have never met or have never even spoken too in anyway on the forums belittling me and making a comments that I probably wont be in the sport long that long cuz Im "playing with barbie's" or something to that effect... do some people just not have a life?

Paige 0 #2 May 29, 2005 There are certain people that need to make other feel bad to build up themselves. I had a smiilar experience with a girl PM'ing me saying I only think I'm good because I'm Ari's gf and I don't pay for any of my tunnel time She's obviously never seen my credit card bill ANYONE who knows me knows NONE of that is true. Some people are jealous and haters. They won't ever go way, they will just bring you down. Don't let em' march on, make them look like the fool. BTW, the girl making comments to me about my tunnel time had 40 hours over a year and a half. I put in 20 hours in a third of the time she did You will never accomplish anything in this sport without friends. Maybe they missed the memo Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peregrinerose 0 #6 May 29, 2005 It happens a lot here. I think that part of the problem is that it's easy to read more than one interpretation into the written word. And just like everyone puts their foot in their mouth from time to time, it probably happens that folks put their keyboards in their mouths occasionally too. Hell, I've done that more than once Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cindee 0 #7 May 29, 2005 It definitely sounds like a person who has jealousy issues. If I was near a tunnel I'd be there all the time! ... And I would most definitely play with a barbie in there too!__________________________________________________ "If happy little bluebirds fly above the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"

Paige 0 #8 May 29, 2005 Here's my issue with that.... What's the point of PM's or emails like that? They accomplish nothing and lead to no constructive comments or insights.

cindee 0 #11 May 29, 2005 I'd love to come play with your barbie! I'll have to plan a trip to visit my dad soon. He lives in Leesburg which I believe is pretty close to where you are. (I've never done any tunnel time before though, and haven't jumped since I broke my leg... but I really want to try it) __________________________________________________ "If happy little bluebirds fly above the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"

Brains 2 #13 May 29, 2005 QuoteI could understand, (but still not accept) maybe a response in the thread, but this chic went out of her way to PM me and just be ugly...for no damn reason!!!!! Tell them to Fuck off and worry about themselves. You had a good time in the tunnel with Paige and Ari, great. Who cares what someone else thinks about it. Paige, you can't jump anymore so you found someTHING else you enjoy. Just so happens that you get to share that with someONE you love too. I think it is easy to see why someone would be jealous of that. You have never struck me as the kind of person who gives a shit what someone else thinks anyway so I say rock out with your cock out. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely all are not miscommunications, some people can just be ignorant. I've had a couple like that over 2 years of reading here. That's why the delete button was invented It's therapeutic to e-shoot the post that way. But I always let it get to me too. A PM is just plain cowardice, you're a stronger woman than the PMer was. I also hope that your PMer is reading this thread. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
