i agree, i hate people that try and get attention from people because they ramble on and on about how there life is crap and how they can't make it better.
Well they aint getting nothing off me.

Agreed Majorly people usually do it more for attention then any other reason. Also What makes the situation worse is they the way people try to stop them from commenting about their life "Stop Being a Drama Queen" "No body cares" "Get lost" usually saying this type of material makes the situation worse its better to keep quiet and not say anything like that.. Prefered that either the people ignore the person create the Drama or simply call a mod since in a way making drama is in a way spam

Well personal issues aren't allowed in the SBs anyway. So if you see some, especially getting out of hand, like nonsense about killing themselves, if a mod is around, report it to them, or if none are around (or on MSN, since some of you know our usernames) then just simply ask them nicely to take it to PMs with someone if they want to continue, and maybe report it so a mod can see it later.

But don't be mean, some people DO have troubles and just don't know how to handle them. A majority of the members are younger remember. So just be polite, maybe offer to talk to them privately and explain why it's not allowed on the shout boxes.

I hate it when people do it for attention...Most of the time, you can seriously tell. I REALLY hate this because some people really ARE hurting...

I will usually offer my personal help through PMs or on the shoutbox if it's appropriate...Although, if I think they're bluffing, I'll ignore them or if it gets out of hand I'll tell them to stop (And why)...If it's inappropriate I tell them that if they continue I'll have to report them.

I don't like this when someone does it for attention but if someone were seriously suffering then that would be different, right? But still, if the person is getting out of hand then either contact a moderator,or leave the SB.

Well... this can be a bit debatable, but moving on.

I know we come on balto source sometimes and we would usually see a member talk about their real life emotions and such. But there are some members out there that take sharing their emotional lives too far.

Of course we have friends here that care for us and we can talk with them about what happened recently that may not be a pleasent experience. But others just keep floundering in self-pity or continue to pull up random conversations about how "Their life sucks" or whatnot. And they would repeatitly continue rambling on about it till they start debating with other people that "they have no clue how it feels like to have (a certain thing) happen in their life".

All of us went through a lot in life of course, but stuff for gaining attention, self-pity, and such is just way too much. This has to stop.

Everything that I wanted to say has being said. I think if you're a bit of a state and you want to talk about it, away from the SB.

AGREED !!!!! ... geez i've seen one particular person say oh i've been have such a poop life.. my friend just died and such getting a lot of attention and people said "oh you can pm me anytime" yet they never pm the people that offer help .. like no one needs to hear about your emotions in life and what happens ... that's your thing keep it to yourself or tell a real life person or friend or family member.. rather then going on a public site for kids and saying all this.
I agree with everyone in here .. thats all i have to say ......

Your post was reported for Topic Necromancy. But under the new moderation lines for Topic Necromancy and Double Topic, no rule has been broken. Thus no action has been taken.

I'll give you a hint: The new rules state that found on the 4th page an onward are truly dead and they should stay dead. That means pages 1, 2, and 3 are fair game, but because the rule is so new you might get flagged from posting in a topic not on the 1st page.
