A Word To The Herd [13+] Choose Kindness From the Menu |
Review brought to you by: "Game of Thrones" by Creeper Of The Realm OVERALL IMPRESSION - It's so sad that these things need to be said, but I totally agree with every point you've made. I know life tends to get in the way at times, which makes it difficult to fulfill your obligations, but sometimes I believe people just don't really care, and that is a hard pill to swallow. One of the best things about writing.com is the community atmosphere. It can be such a fun place, almost like a second home when put yourself out there and join in the fun and excitement. WHAT I LIKED BEST - All of your thoughts were clear and concise on the matter or giving in our little community. Auctions can be so much fun, but when you've paid for your package and it never gets delivered, it takes over a month for the giver to actually remember they donated a package, it takes the fun out of the event. Sometimes when you are let down during these activities, it makes you less likely to participate in the future, and that only hinders other auctions. At the very least, a thank you is in order for the simple tasks, like a when you receive a review. Getting a review shows that someone took the time to read your work, whatever the rating was. I'm sorry to hear about the post left in a forum. Bullying seems to be the way these days as we all flock to the internet and somehow know we are so hidden behind the screen we can do whatever we want and not have to face the consequences because we think we are anonymous. How very sad. Great article. All we can do in the end is put our best efforts forward, and hope those without the common sense or decency to do so will figure it out eventually.
