Hey all.
On a website such as RYL, often people get very close very quickly, they are sharing their deepest secrets from the get go and forge very intense friendships. Unfortunately sometimes, these friendships do not last, people fall out, and these secrets are used as weapons.
Quite often the moderators get post reports from people saying that they think others are talking about them in their posts.
Whilst it is most definately against
the rules to flame other members in your posts, including the ranting and venting forum, there is NOTHING the moderators can or will do until we have some evidence that one person is writing about another.
We can not edit posts because people *think* they are about them.
So:
1) If you are writing a rant, about a person or situation away from RYL, please try and be specific. rather than
'i ****ing hate you, you bitch' how about trying 'i ****ing hate you, bitch from school' (something along those lines.. you get the jist!) so that people are left in no doubt that it isnt about them.
2) If you are reporting a post that you feel is about you, please please
please dont just send us post reports that say
'this is about me, please delete it'. because we wont.. we will pm you and ask why you think its about you, and what proof you have.
It would be beyond helpful if, along with the post report, you send us a bit of information. tell us the situation, tell us why you think its about you, tell us pm's youve received... tell us anything that proves this person is writing about you specifically, because without knowing for sure, we will not edit anything.
Thank you.
The Mods
