I recently came back to Fubar to see what's up in all. I read a blog that a Real Person that I added 2 months ago, is leaving the site, for good. Apparently, the individual feels hurt by what happened and is taking a step out because of someone or somebody chased the person out. I'm not going to reveal the person's name because I don't want to embarrass the individual, nor making any enemies here. When I came here, it was like, cool a "grown up" version of MySpace. But like every other "social website" there will always be jerks, or idiots, or jackoffs, or bumbling fools who will ruin people good times. Sort of like one bad apple spoils the bunch. You get this on Myspace, Blackplanet, Facebook, MyYearbook, Yahoo360, Friendster, Youtube, and others. Feel me? Every been to a movie theater, a concert, after party, club, or festival and someone caused a ruckus? Just like the thing online.
Having said that, I don't know how long I will continue to come to this site. If it's my time to go, it's my time to go. Plain and simple. I was invited in, and I darn sure will make my own exit. I'll say it again. I darn sure will make my own exit. And likewise, it might hurt not only those I met, but those who considered me as a Real friend.
There's nothing wrong meeting people from different areas of the globe, and having a chance to meet those with interests, or sense of common favorites. Like the Green Bay Packers, or Rap music. Or being from Wisconsin, and having common interests.
Now, having said that even more, let me say this upfront: If there is a site that you don't like, there's always somewhere else to go. I read what "babyjesus" said. And yes, I do go to MySpace more than Fubar. I go to my local MyFox Blogsite than Fubar. I go to my Live Windows Space than Fubar. I go to Reunion.com, and Classmates.com more than Fubar! I go to Facebook than Fubar, Why? It's my choice! And I'm sticking to it. Period! No ifs, ands, or buts. And plus, I got family members and friends from High School, Church, the hood, and others that I see on these sites more than this one. I also have relatives that are serving in the U.S. Army overseas that are on MySpace. Now you know why I go to that site more often? And they say that MySpace is for teens? One question: How many grown folks, famous or not, do have a MySpace that are over 25 and 30?
I read emails saying that "come back to this lounge or that lounge". Well, to those who said that, I'm not angry nor pissed off. I know you miss me. Hey, I was celebrating life. I'm doing a thing that is part of my character. Let me say, my REAL character, not a "Fu-character", BUT A REAL CHARACTER, (hey I just turned 31 last Wednesday. Thanks for the B-Day greetings) is called Patience. That's the word.
So, I'm not trying to divide lines in the sand here. Nor I'm not trying to make "honor among thieves". To those that got to know me either through the lounges, or on my comment profiles, it was cool to meet you. Let's try to do it more often without any drama!
But on the real, let's be mindful to watch ourselves, because you never know. I know some of us have common sense. Someone you know might be effected. In other words, to quote Ice Cube: "Check yourself before you wreck yourself!"
