Not what it used to be

First of all, thank you to those who send their love on my birthday, I appreciate it!

Hmmm... I haven't been around AnD lately. Have visited this site less often many months ago. This site isn't as it used to be.
Lots of fakers & weird people have flocked here on AnD. What used to be a safe site have become just another social network where some people would just sign up as members to hook up, collect friends, trying to solicit flattery, & being a huge ASSHOLE!!
Notice how the other members here isn't even a fan of a single AnD artist?
What also bothers me is that I even have fans here who only have me on their list, what's up with that??

I haven't had any argument with any member here, except this one girl who I think is a mental runaway, this was around May last year. I'm certain she's delusional because I'm not the only one who got really pissed off with her. She even sent me a private message stating that I was rude to her (WTF!), claiming that she's so "God fearing".

Reported her to the admin & I think that caused the cancellation of her account. But she created a new one & saw her on my visitors list months ago (she changed her username & used her real pics, but I'm no fool not to know that it's her).

And what is it with others trying to get people who doesn't even know them to check on their albums? just like this recent dude on my guestbook.

Geez! it's so enticing to be mean and so wanting to say Goodbye to AnD.

it's sad that the descent ones are opting to leave while the crazy ones remain.

i agree about the pics, it's also one of the reasons why I blur my pictures so that people will not recognize me in person (as if that's even gonna happen). well, another reason is that I don't know how to edit photos, hehe..

Thomas username's 'Lionheart' right? I remember that I got to talk to him a couple of times in the shoutbox & even during the time I vented about the retard girl, turns out he & some other members were pissed at her too.
Seems like Thomas been a favorite of these kind of psychos. Too bad he left...

Well, Thomas had mentioned in his latest blogs that he was considering canceling his AnD account, since that weird chick with her multiple accounts wouldn't leave him alone ...

I rarely drop by at the SB way before it got fucked up by a bunch of creeps. I did encounter the retard I'm talking about there. I then quit the SB last year.

Harassing? the problem when you reported someone is that they can always make another account & stalk you again, better for him to ignore her, it's no use acknowledging her stupidity.

I know what you mean - especially with that weirdo chick who's been harassing Thomas >.<
Mostly though, I miss the gang who hung out in the shoutbox after I joined the site *tear* ...

And why on EARTH do I have 100 fans?!? I'm not famous, just an average "Jill" :p

Nah, I don't think it's because you're friends with Terence, they simply like you Mommy M!

I know what you mean, I haven't been active in nearly 3 years really since I got pregnant with my daughter. I did get a lot of strange friend requests or fans since I obviously have a personal connection to this site. However, I know the thought behind AnD and the energy behind it is still there. There are still a lot of good ppl here as well!

It's not that big of a trouble though! I just felt that AnD isn't as safe as it used to be, so we gotta be careful with those weirdos that have step on AnD land, haha!

yes, people should be very cautious & try to avoid in giving out too much of their personal info, I try to be discreet with mine, you'll never know what kind of person is lurking on your profile.

i know what you mean girl...that's why i hardly look around now, it's just checking blog comments, guestbook, and occasionally blogging...it's like the safe territory is smaller now and i'm stuck to my own world, i used to flock everywhere...those were the days i guess..

I still love AnD, favorite artists being here is a a huge plus.
It's great to know that AnD is gaining more members, problem is some of them aren't here for the right reasons.
Just quite annoyed that some weirdos are lurking here already.

Jac, he's been roaming around to make others check on his photos. I actually thought that he was an artist & the 'album' he's referring to is a record album, lol!

I don't really know how it was when AnD first started b/c I only came on a year and half ago but these days, I mainly log on 2xs a week or so. I used to have a myspace account and for some of the reasons you mentioned above, after a year I deleted it b/c I was tired of weird people leaving weird messages.
A while ago, I thought about starting a fashion blog on blogspot but in the end, I decided that I wanted to stay here instead. I hope that for you, it can one day return to what it used to be.

yeah, u're right..there's weirdos around, and I think those who fan only one person must be bots (I have several of those aswell)...
