Calm the fuck down. *E

 Dear Diary;

Hello again, OD world.

So, the site went down. Personally, it didn’t bother me a whole lot and I didn’t get too wrapped up in the hoopla that was going on over on Facebook. Man, there were some SERIOUSLY angry mother fuckers over there. I checked it out once and considered posting my two cents, but decided to back away slowly and stay out of the drama. It was ridiculous.

I mean, okay.. I get that people are upset that the site is down. I understand that people who paid money are upset and I get that people who haven’t backed up their diary are worried that it might all be gone… but seriously? If you’re getting THAT worked up over it maybe you need to take a step back and see just how addicted you are to the internet. Time to stop writing about living life and go live it.

I know, I know.. the arguments are coming my way. "I just wanted an update to make sure nothing was lost", and "I have friends here that I care about and this is how we stay in touch". Personally, I’d rather have Bruce working on fixing the site than spending time updating the insane addicts about how it’s going. Also, chances are if you have friends here- you’ve got them on Facebook or you have their email addresses. It’s not like all forms of communication have been lost.

Did I miss the site? Yes. I missed reading my faves and tossing in an update (there was something I really wanted to write about last night, but I forget what it is), but I had patience and knew you’d all be here when things were back up and running.

I feel like I’m going to take a lot of shit over those statements, but I really don’t care that much. *shrug* It’s how I feel.

Moving on..

♥ Redman from POF has been writing me regular emails. So far, so good.
♥ Col. Russel Williams is a sick bastard who should be drug out into the street and shot… and then run over by a bus… and spit on.
♥ New tattoo soon, I hope!
♥ I adore YouTube and it’s wonderful music sensations.
 

 

 

*Edit

Okay, clarification for all the haters.

When I referred to the people who were "getting THAT worked up" over the outage- I was talking about the people who were picking fights over on FB because someone *gasp* disagreed with their point. Those are the people who need to "calm the fuck down". I get that people were ticked off but acting like a fool and getting into name calling and online fights over it was completely unnecessary.

I’m not saying that everyone who missed OD for one reason or another are not entitled to feel the way they do…. but starting fights with people over it? Grow the fuck up.

 K?

Just stating my opinion.

I was involved in fights. But only because I had a differing opinion and was attacked and called a bitch among other things. So, I defended myself. And I’m sure anyone can tell from just LOOKING at my diary, I’m not addicted. I don’t even write very often.

I usually just figure the DM is working on something that needs fixing and he’ll have the site up as quickly as is possible.

I thought it was ridiculous as well..it is an internet site after all…get out from behind the computer screen..and go live some real life. so I agree with you 100% 🙂

You make an excellent point – I have to admit I was a little annoyed that the site was down but I got over it pretty quickly 🙂
