      Well hey there little buddy. Tagging me several times in one post is not nice either, because then you spam the mess out of my email and it crashes.

      So, don’t do that.

      On a more serious note, I’m not sure if you’re joking or not about your family and about some of us not being Christians. Online chats are hard because you can’t see each other’s faces, hear each other’s voices, and see one another’s body language. So, sometimes we’ve got to limit the jokes we make, or else surround them with a thousand laughing emojis or something that shows it’s a joke. Because otherwise, I’m going to feel terrible if I hurt you and something is going on I don’t know about, and you could also hurt people by saying you doubt they’re Believers.

      I’m going to take both comments as a joke for the time being, and I hope that you know what I was saying was supposed to be funny as well. Please forgive me if it came across otherwise.

      So, yeah. I hope you understand what I’m saying. It can be easy to get carried away and realize how limited communication is online.

       

      I hope this cleared the air.

        Okay, calm down.

        Sit down, relax, take in a breath slowly and exhale. Believe me, doing this a few times helps a lot.

        Firstly, I can’t speak for @ellette-giselle but about kicking you off KP, I was not serious.

        Secondly, I apologize for not understanding this topic when it is really obvious now that I look at it. Andrew (@raxforge) can testify, as my best friend irl, that I’m not fast on the uptake. Sorry

        Thirdly, don’t take Kielah’s lol seriously as a way to hurt you. Using the expression often is something that has always been unique to her on here, and I think I know her well enough to vouch that she doesn’t use it to hurt people purposefully. I have never seen Kielah raise a mean word against someone on this forum, in fact, she is often a very supportive person. I doubt, I highly doubt,  she would try to be mean to you.

        Fourthly,

        I thought we are supposed to be christian!? I can clearly see that some of you are not!

        You have no right to make this statement unless someone is clearly living in sin, blaspheming God, and showing no remorse for what they are doing. Just because it appears as though someone is being rude does not mean they aren’t a Christian.

        I understand you’ve had a long day from school, but please calm down. You are not thinking.

        Also, keep in mind, even if someone has hurt you, be careful not to hurt them too.

        Lastly, Magic potato, havoc potato, what potato am I?

              LITTLE BUDDY?! HOW OLD DO YOU THINK I AM? FOUR!?

              And on another note, I want to make this clear I HATE WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO CLEAR THE AIR WITH JOKES! It makes me feel even MORE stupid!

              I’m not sure if you’re joking or not about your family

              You think I would joke about something like that! Something that truly hurts to think about?! Wow! I really REALLY do not like you! (I cannot hate you, because I AM a Christian!)

              some of us not being Christians.

              It was more directed at you, I mean that you call yourself christian, but don’t carry out the actions you are supposed to do.

              hurt people by saying you doubt they’re Believers.

              Oh no, I believe that you believe in God and christ, but I highly doubt you act like. Just based how you treated me early.

              I’m going to take both comments as a joke for the time being,

              Wow, okay! You really think I would joke about my family? Like THAT!

               

              I hope this cleared the air.

              It DID NOT!

              it made things worse… i hope you understand that I will never talk to you again!

                  @the_lost-journal

                  I just wanted to say I don’t think you’re being very fair to Ellette. She was not trying to be mean, as she obviously explained, and you kind of blew up when she tried to deescalate the situation.

                  And I will echo what RAE put very nicely, you have no right to make any claims about anyone’s faith in here. It’s extremely insulting, especially when you don’t really know the people on here very well.

                  Anyway, I will leave now.

                      I don’t even know you, I have been talking with many people, but you don’t have to butt into our conversation.

                      I don’t think you’re being very fair to Ellette.

                      That may be somewhat true, but she didn’t do it in the best way. She basically thought I was joking about the situation. And I hate when people try to cool it down with jokes. Here is what as she said that made my bottles burst open;

                      Well hey there little buddy. Tagging me several times in one post is not nice either, because then you spam the mess out of my email and it crashes.

                      So, don’t do that.

                      On a more serious note,

                      It is the fact that she said “little buddy” and ended it off with a “On a more serious note,” Meaning she was not being serious about that. Which makes me feel as if she wasn’t being serious on how she made me feel. 😢

                      you have no right to make any claims about anyone’s faith in here.

                      I am sorry if didn’t put it how I meant it, what I meant by that, and @rae this is for you to, is that the way she mad me feel doesn’t feel very christian of her. It honestly made my cry… A little at least.

                      And I’m sorry if I didn’t sound very nice, I wasn’t trying to come off that way.

                      It did, but I forgive you.

                       

                      you kind of blew up

                      This is my whole life.. I bottle up my emotions, I am too scared to tell anyone how I truly feel… and then I blow up and everyone hates me. It’s a cycle I can never beat, it always gets the best of me.

                        I… I don’t know what to say.

                        First off, I can hardly see what I’m doing because I’m crying so hard. I don’t understand why you seem to be so out to get me or…. or something! At first I thought you were just a very funny, joking type person. I was only trying to play along.

                        I called you “little buddy” because that’s what I call my younger brothers in affectionate moments. You honestly reminded me of one of them when I first interacted with you, and I was only trying to be welcoming and playful. I’m so, so sorry. i don’t know how this went so off! I was honestly only trying to be friends. I don’t know if you’re younger then i am, but I thought of you as such, and was really trying to just interact with you as I would with my little brothers.

                        I am crying so hard right now, and I am being very honest when I say that. What you said about me not acting like a believer hurt more then I think you will ever know, and the way you have just really lost your temper and said some very, very hurtful things……….

                        I….. I honestly don’t know what to say or do.

                        I thought you were trying to be friends the way you keep singling me out in the Chat Chat and in Activities and tagging only me. I thought you were trying to make friends. Many of the things you said came across as funny, and i was only trying to be funny back.

                        I am so, so sorry.

                          It’s okay, no one is going to hate you. Ellette wasn’t being serious about really kicking you off KP, and like she said, it’s hard to tell online whether someone is joking or not. I understand that you have a lot going on, but I think you over reacted. If you are hurt by something that someone says, maybe try to clarify what they meant or tell them gently. Everyone on here is a Christian and most likely would never purposefully hurt you.

                              Ok, sorry, I wasn’t meaning to butt in. I guess I just wanted to defend Ellette (not that she needed it, that’s just kind of how I am), but looking back I didn’t really need to intervene, and it probably just made you feel ganged up on. So I apologize for that.

                              I hope you know nobody on here hates you, and if you ever want to talk about anything, any one of the people on here would love to listen. If you’re feeling angry, just explain, or step away for a while, please don’t say things that might hurt other people.

                                I WAS trying to be friends! The way you responded to all of my post though came off as how my sibling would respond, and that is not a good thing. I have had a lot of problems trying to get along with them in these past years, so I am sorry for bursting out ton you. It is just that I have been bullied so much by my siblings, the always shoot my ideas down, and thats what I thought you were trying to do!

                                To be honest, although I would never want to admit this, I have also been crying, I am sorry if I have hurt you. But you have also really hurt me, with just all the ways you responded to the things I have tagged you in. I DON’T KNOW ANYMORE! I am having a crisis in my life, and the way you were talking caught me off guard. I understand that you can’t translate tone, body langue and facial expressions on a computer, but just the way you said “Someone needs to kick him off KP” really triggered me. I wish people would explain that they were joking, or being serious.

                                The way that you shot down my idea of this joke potato thing really hurt, even if you weren’t being serious. It just reminded me of all the times my siblings have done the same thing. But weren’t  joking.
