So I have a personal blog where I vent and talk about everything going on in my life.. I mean everything.. from the good the bad and the really ugly.. and now I'm being bullied though comments on my blog because of the things I have said. I'm getting comments like no one will ever buy from my store because I'm mean.. I'll be a bad mother, I have no right to sale on a website or a public store site like Etsy.com, and things like I'm not professional in a business blog ( tho the tag line in my blog is " personal blog with extras)... It's super depressing. I've tried to ignore it but each day it's getting harder ad harder.. I like recieving comments ( nice ones of course) but I hate the feeling I get now whenever I have to approve a comment I'm so scared this person is .. do you think I should just turn them all off and not allow comments to avoid these jerks from making me cry again.. I just got another mean comment saying am I an adult or a 2 year old.. and to stop whinning.. and calling me a bully I don't know what to do I just feel like crying all over again.. Any advice would be nice..
It is a virtual world out there.....friend Do not take such things personally....and if you cannot do so..just turn off the comments ...... Btw....you are courageous enough to show off your dark side to the world....and it is natural for people to throw bricks.... Everybody has a couple of negatives too...just make an effort to throw more light on your dark side....and see if you can turn them into a glowing one.... Regards, RightMan
To be honest, why give a crap? People who criticize others for having their own opinions are idiots. You are free to believe in what you like as well as choose what you don't like, no one should be able to tell you what you should think. My advice is just ignore this kind of stuff, they are generally from low lifes that find fun in annoying and hurting other people. Don't turn off comments, just IP ban the idiots and ignore them, simple as that! As long as you are not way offline with what you are saying, you should be fine. Don't approve the hate comments and of course approve the good comments and comment back - makes you sound friendlier. Good luck - c0ldmax
You should not harsh comments and be brave. Must handel all the buling and come out of this situation like a champ.
Oh I never appove them.. I actually only talk about my family and how my busineses are doing.. I'm about to have a baby so I'm working super hard on my sites.. and nothing is working.. so it's super depressing.. I think I'll turn the comments off on some of my posting.. but not all Thanks for your help.. I actually started to cry from the last comment.. crazy pregnant hormones.. ugh
well mean comments there so very bad people you have meet there. be cheerful. part of life is being criticized too!.. well over criticizing is no good and that should be deleted..
just ignore them they are looking for attention or a reaction then it will stop and they will bully someone else
Set your blog so the comments have to be moderated first then delete all the crap. You don't even have to read them!
They are probably just silly kids, bored in an IT lesson. Ignore them I had somebody screaming rants at me because a recipe I posted online didn't work. I really wanted to Allow that one ... then respond to it calling them a moron
you should learn to filter out and ignore the negative (if they don't help you that is) feedbacks you get over the net, there will always be cyberbullying, ignore them and they won't get the fun outta you and they ....in theory should stop. Be strong and keep doing what you are doing. I'm sure not everyone's like those few individuals.
Try not take their comments to heart, you will always get people like that who have nothing better to do than be nasty cause it makes them feel good. Just keep your chin up and you will be fine.
Have you installed an Wordpress addon for comment spam, something like WP Spamfree or suchlike. It gives you an easy to approve/unapprove/spam/delete option for all comments.
I just checked out your blog, and thought it was great! Just for peace of mind though, it might be better to leave comments disabled for now.
