That's awful. I'm really sorry about what happened to your friend. Was she following all the rules? Because if she was, then I think you should bring this up to an admin or something.
I can't believe that Mibba would do such a thing. *shakes head* That's just awful. That's like them saying, "Okay, yeah, you're being bullied. Who gives a crap?" Seriously, Mibba needs to back off!
v. Yes. As long as she wasn't name-calling and insulting him (even though he's clearly done that to her, and that's awful and should not have happened at all) she could and should vent about her feelings and explain the situation here on the site to find support.
That is horrible, but the Blog Mods are right. But if she wasn't hating on him and followed the rules, she could SHARE that little story of what he's done, correct? I dunno.
Everyone is free to vent about their emotions, we even encourage that, as long as the rules set out are followed. But no matter the personal situation, we cannot bend the rules, just as Bella said. The same rules apply to all.
It's understandable that someone would be upset in that position, but unfortunately the rules have to apply to everyone at all times. Bullying is naturally horrible and no one should have to face it, but in spite of this the site rules can't bend because someone is upset, etc.
I read that blog and can't remember too much of it, but perhaps it was her messages back to him that she posted that were considered bashing, and not the actual content of her blog?
I completely agree. It's totally wrong. I've actually considered deleting my mibba account a couple times for stuff like this. It's absolutely ridiculous, because some people need to vent and aren't able to do so because of ridiculous rules. In my opinion, writing to get something off your chest is writing whether it's five words or two-hundred, it's bashing or praising, any of the silly things they come up with that mibbians do "wrong." I think that having moderators, while to a certain extent is okay. But they take it too far and it's getting old. I also agree with the others, though. I would say you should definitely take this up with an admin.
I can't believe that! That honestly ticks me off! She's getting bullied for Christ Sakes and they take her blog off? I'd seriously fight this because it's not definitely not right, it makes me think they sided with the bully....Which in no way is okay with me.
Yes, I've had a few of my blogs deleted for a similar reason to your friends. I didn't think I was being all that rude and bashing. I just put in what he had said to me. He was the one bashing me, not the other way around or well. I said things about him in a mature and better manner but still.
The definition of a blog is where an individual or a group users record opinions, information, and whatever is on their minds. How is this whole censorship stuff letting us blog about our opinions of things. It's not,
That's horrible. Bullying should never be ignored and it sounds like it was deliberately ignored. I'm sorry about your friend and if she would like to talk, I'm here. Mibba shouldn't delete things like that though....
