FAQ....

I really don't have the time or the energy to answer the numerous questions I get in the comments and via email so how about a FAQ post?

I get the question time and time again How do you get to travel so much?

Well that is because my children live out of state from us. It's  hundreds of miles away from me and when we started traveling for my husband's job,  we promised we would never go a month between visits.  We never miss a birthday or special event and we spend all major holidays together.  Family has always been the most important thing for us and always will be.

We also travel lots for work.  I can now go on business trips because I have no small children at home.

Why do you write the Bully Blog?

If you have not been here from the beginning, go back and read the first post.  The short version is that I was once a Mwoper on the original Mwop, I had issues with a few things Mckmama did but once they were corrected I never felt the need to nitpick every little thing.  I was the person who spoke up when I thought people were over the top and I was attacked for my views.  I was bullied for taking up for another person and the MOB attacked me.  I stood up to them and I have never backed down.  Bullies work in a pack, I provide a safe place people can voice their opinion and not be attacked by the MOB or bullies.

If MWoP goes away will you take your blog down?

I would love to longer have a need for this blog.  As you can tell I hardly comment, I only make new post a few times a month or as needed.  I will always leave the blog up but I would love for MWoP to go away and then I could spend the time I spend here on other fun projects.

Why don't you post about anything in your real life on this blog?

I have a personal blog for my family and friends.  Now that we travel so much it is the easiest way to keep in touch.  I don't feel the need to post personal stuff here.  My family and friends read this blog and comment from time to time.  Even my husband reads this blog, actually he was the reason I started this blog.  You see defending yourself to bullies is pointless.  I tried and instead of allowing the MOB bullies to continue to attack he said start your own blog and they can't control that, so I did.  Best advice and so glad I listened to him.  Thanks hubby xoxo

Do you think you have made a difference?

Yes.   Look how many bullies have gone away.  Look how many forums have gone private.  Look at the TOU at MWoP, sure didn't have anything like that on any of the other Mwop sites.  At least Anja tries to control them now.

Do you think you have given any knowledge that has helped other bloggers protect themselves on the web?

I know I have.  I learned so much over the last 6 or 7 years and I have had so many ladies write and say thanks for sharing.  Just using a different email address when signing up to comment has helped so many people.  Many never realized how this email follows you all over the net.  I also believe many who commented used their IRL names and came to realize how this was probably not a wise choice on the web.

What is the most important thing you have learned from writing a bully blog?

I never knew how mean and hateful people could be online.  I never believed that  people could type and publish such awful things online.  I have seen it all, but it has only made me stronger.  Don't believe everything you read online.

Why do you moderate comments?

Read the above answer and this should explain.

The next month is jam packed for me so my sweet friend will be taking care of the blog.  Please be nice and no foul language.  I've told Mel I will not even have time to look over things.. so if your comment is not posted, you will know why.  I'm off for a golfing adventure, girls weekend, family birthday out of state, and SIL get together so I really, really will not be around. 

Wouldn't it be nice if I came back in November and MWoP was gone and Mckmama would be a thing of the past!!!!!!  You just never know..

Is The Snake Dead Now?

With the latest news of Mckmama making the decision to shut down her blog I have to wonder if the Snake Is Dead?  The Snake being Mwop.  How will they justify their actions of stalking, harassing and libel if Mckmama is no longer a "Public Figure"?  Remember they claim Mckmama being a "Public Figure" allows them to do what they do.

Now if this is true and Mckmama is no longer a "Public Figure",  no longer a blogger who puts herself out there, then it should be true:  THE SNAKE IS DEAD.  Mckmama cut the head off the snake by taking away her blog for them to tear apart.

Good job Mckmama for dropping the blog.  Really I believe it is Mckmama taking the power and showing MWOP who is boss.  I'm happy to see a family back together and wish Mckmama all the best!

MWOP move on, just like Mckmama is doing.  THE SNAKE IS DEAD!!!

I did post today on the site we don't talk about. I told them to STOP posting my name. I am committing no crime posting here. I am here for the same thing everyone else is, to see jm pay for her crimes. Yes I may dislike her more than some because of her treatment of animals. We all want her held accountable for screwing over this country. I am not a public person like jm. I do not put my life on the internet like she does. She puts it out there and is open for people to talk about her. I am not. Some from the other site found it necessary to leave comments on the animal rescue site I work with. Even going so far as to say hurtful things about the baby animals in care. This is over the top. The rescue center and the animals did nothing to any of those people. The comments they made can and will be taken as a threat. The board of directors takes threats very seriously. I told them I would help in any way I could. This is way over the line and shows how sick some people really are. I am only going to tell them one time to stop using my name. I know there has been a lot of talk about legal action being taken against people here. I don't care what jm does or does not do. She can hire the best law firm in her state. I have committed no crime, she can not say the same. You come after me or my animals for something I posted on this site we are going to have a war."

Mckprisonbound no one on this site is giving out your name.  You yourself posted your real name on Snort's blog and Snort gave the information that you are mckprisonbound.  I received a comment with the copies showing your real name and the reference by Snort from someone who is on Mwop and was sick to find out you were mckprisonbound and the one leaving the horrible comments about Mckmama and her children.   I did not post the comment.  You are not the only person with the name Lindy.

Please refrain from making false accusations about this site.  You have no proof anyone from this site has left any comments on the web or website about you.  This is your formal notice to cease making false statements about this blog.

Now based on viewing the comments at Mwop it appears you have been called out on numerous occasions by not only your fellow Mwopers, but also Anja for the content of your comments.  I believe if any comments about you are being left on the web they could be coming from people who have already said they have a problem with your comments, you know the people who see what you post day after day.

Before you complain about someone finding out your identity you need to place blame in the correct place.  You are the one who has shared all the personal information about yourself, you are the person who is posting on a blog using your REAL name and it was your very own friend who outed you on the web.  

Mckprisonbound you need to contact Snort and give her the warning not this blog.

Hope that clears everything up for you..

UPDATE***

mckprisonbound it appears Anja said the same thing I did!  Look in the mirror and you can see who is to blame, take ownership and stop crying like the victim.  Isn't this what you say Mckmama should do?

The problem arises when you either 1) share your contact information with other readers, 2) use the same username elsewhere on the internet, or 3) discuss your participation on Site A with readers of Site B. That's what happened here, and the result is that personal information got out. It wasn't a result of simply participating here.

Open Post

Just putting up a new post for the week.

Happy Labor Day!

This post was pre-scheduled in the event you ladies may need it.

New Post

This is scheduled to post on Sept. 1st

You ladies may not need this.. but I know when the comments get to 200 they are hard to view.  Since I knew I would be out of touch until the 5th I was just looking ahead.  I have another scheduled for the 3rd.

Hope everyone enjoys the holiday weekend and be safe!

MilitaryMom308..Bless Her Heart!

UPDATE:  We are out of town at our annual Labor Day Family gathering.  I just checked in and removed the nasty comments.  Since I now have a site meter on the site I can tell you all that all the nasty comments came from the same person, IP address.  I do believe it is the same person who is no longer welcome at Mwop and she blames this site for that.  The same nasty comments appeared during the Snort debate and the JFTBlock debate.  The reason she does this is to try and make this site look bad.  I love how so many of you told her to go away and no one joined her bandwagon of hate.  Thank you ladies for not acting like the haters at Mwop. 

 Hope everyone is safe from the storm, we tricked it this year and decided not to go to Florida after fighting storms the last couple of years..we made a wise decision!

As you all know I hardly ever post twice in one day, let's face it..I'm doing good to post once a week!

Well I got an email from a friend saying MilitaryMom308 had mentioned me on MWOP.

  Now of course when I read the comment below I said MilitaryMom308 is CRAY CRAY. 

 Yes, I know what you are thinking..I've seen her comments on MWOP and I know she is CRAY CRAY but really..saying I instant messaged her?  Saying I had one small child and one on the way?  I wonder what my husband would think of that?  I must be hiding that small child and my pregnancy.  I am laughing so hard over this one.

So to MilitaryMom308 AKA CRAY CRAY...

I have no small child and am not pregnant.  It's funny to even type that out..

I am a grandmother and I travel all the time due to my husband's job.  I've been very blessed to also have the ability to take some incredible vacations.  We have raised our children, sent them to college and now we are enjoying our life.

We have never filed for bankruptcy but unlike you MilitaryMom308..I believe that being able to file for  bankruptcy is a right any one is entitled to do as citizens of the United States of America.  Unlike you MilitaryMom308,  I don't believe someones right to file should be based on if they are a blogger I like or not. 

MilitaryMom308 I have taken the time to read all your comments on MWOP and I really feel very sorry for you.  It appears you are a very unhappy housewife who has been forced to live on very little money and you are jealous of anyone who is comfortable.  I can only assume you are not a Christian and I will pray for you.  I'm sorry your life has not been easy and you have had to struggle so much.  Sometimes life just isn't fair.  I will add you to my prayers and I hope you can let go of the jealousy and find peace with your own life. 

 

When you spend all your free time hating someone you don't know IRL it is hard to see the blessings right under your nose.  MilitaryMom308 try stepping away and maybe you will recognize you have many wonderful things in your own life you have been missing due to all the hate.

Shellie, those woman over there are awful and have absolutely NO business criticizing anything that goes on at this site.  I'm convinced that the vast majority of the comments are made by one woman over there under many "anonymous" postings.  There's something mentally wrong with the woman that runs it.  In between MWOP sites (1, 2 and this one) she had instant messaged me several times and it was obvious from the beginning that she is really, really off mentally.  Her crap about being a grandmother, going on vacation all the time, etc. is the direct opposite of what she told me.  She had told me that her name was Tina, she was married with one small child and another one on the way and that she and her husband had to file bankruptcy due to her son being born prematurely.  She is an out and out liar and one of the true nutjobs on the internet so don't you worry about a thing they say over there.  You're a very sweet person and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.  I'd take one of you over 50 of them any day.
