OK, so I may just make myself even more unpopular here by doing this, but I just feel like it's something that needs to be done. Ok, so last night I know things got a little crazy with the 'Boot's CMA Predictions" thread and AdamJ told us he was leaving, for professional reasons. But some people brought up really good points about "positive" and "negative" posters, and it made me uncomfortable when he said "Some of you are true Carrie fans...." This bothers me because I was under the impression that we are ALL Carrie's fans, or else what would be the point of going on this website and sharing in our mutual love for Carrie?
Read the words at the bottom of my siggy! I mean them. I truly do love ALL of you on here and there is not a person that I wouldn't mind talking to. That is all we should all be. Yeah, we are going to disagree sometimes and yeah we all have different opinions. But I just feel like, to me, there are certain people who stick with a certain group of people and it's almost like we all have "sides" in an argument.
For me, I feel like the only people I geniunely know and get along with and enjoy talking to is Tee, Robin ann hunt, and carebear4eva. With a few notable exceptions. I know I have had moments here where yeah, I went off and I blew up and said some stuff I regret, yes. I'll be the first one to say that.
But I don't want to be labeled as a "negative" poster or "not a true Carrie fan", because let me tell you, I don't know what I would do without Carrie in my life. I don't. And I just felt like AdamJ kind of called a few of us who disagreed with him out on that thread with some of his posts.
I genuinely love Tee, Robin ann hunt, and carebear4eva!! I feel like they have actually tried hard to reach out and make me feel welcome and I hope i give off the same feeling. I know I'm still labeled as a "newbie" or whatever because I've only been here since May, but I was around the site a lot longer than that, and I love it here!
But maybe it's something I'm doing wrong? Am I not reaching out to enough people or have I just upset a lot of people? Tell me if I am wrong. I don't want to be seen as "negative" or someone to avoid, because sometimes I get that feeling.
Almost sometimes I am hesitant to even express my opinion. It's almost like you have to be stiff, robotic, emotionless and just be happy go lucky no matter what or when you post on here without people jumping down your throat.
So are there any disagreements or thoughts that need to be let out? Because we need to clear the air now if there is any negative feelings because then we will feel so much better later and at least I will know what not to do from now on.
I just want you ALL to know I love and care about you and I don't want there to be any kind of rift between anybody.
