I guess it had to happen......

Here I am, minding my own business.....tootling along happily in blogland and enjoying every minute of it.....

My blog is a work-free haven of jokes, stories and music.....with a little bit of journalling thrown in.......
Well, no one wants to hear about my boring office job.........



AND I GOT FLAMED!!

[flamed: def: Informal. An insulting criticism or remark meant to incite anger, as on a computer network.]

Yep, someone flamed the Queen [looks righteously indignant] on a friend's blog - not only me, but my friends too........

and you wanna know what I got flamed for? 'denying' where I work.....odd thing was, I wasn't even IN the conversation....... and I have never denied where I work - of course, to be honest I have never actually *mentioned* it [chuckle]

So, it begins.....the flaming. I have retired from many forums at work because there were some people who couldn't resist having a pop at an easy-going popcorn-brain like me.

Why do some people feel the need to attack people like this? The worst offenders are usually nice as you like to my face, but on-line they tear me apart.....

I only warn of one thing - if the person responsible for the attacks on my friend's blog turns up here, I am going to have to install comment moderation. I hate CM, but I don't like being intimidated....and this is MY blog, MY palace, MY place, MY sanctuary from the madness of the world - which includes work!

Right, now that's off my chest I'm off to see my singing hippo again!

I guessed where you were talking about and just had a look. It was all very strange wasn't it? I can't stand these people who haven't even the balls to have a blog or e mail and just feel free to drop a hand grenade into someone else's comments.

How pathetic do peoples lives have to be for them to stoop to those levels.
Ever noticed I have never really said what I do or did do for a job or who I work/worked for. Does that mean I am in denial too ?HAHA.

hopefully, in a few days, you can get rid of the CM.

And if I ever saw you flamed, I'd stand up for you!!

Ahhhh....my dear Queen. Bless you for being vunerable and caring. Royality always seems to be a target. I have every confidence in you that you will handle the situation well.

Cowards do things annonymously.

Glad you are back and you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.

I hate when that happens. I'm sure the flamer would have never said what he/she did to your face. People can be such asses when they think they're anonymous.

I am so sorry that someone "flamed" you my dear CQ...What poor taste! Little do they know how great The Queen really is...you will rise above these slights, I know! As far as Comment Moderation...I found out it is a really helpful tool when there is a 'nay-sayer' afoot. I don't like it either, but I'm sure glad we have it if we need it, you know? Out Out, Damned Flamer, I say!
