September 10, 201410 yr Author It makes sense now :lol: On a more serious note, does anyone know what comments bothered Shadow tho? Apologies, it sounded as though I was accusing you when I wasn't! I'm re-reading Our Story and it fills you with so much joy knowing how much these girls would achieve in the following years. I love reading Una talking about her solo gigs in Ireland...having no idea that in a few years she would have released five albums, a GH, have two children... I love the Healy/Foden family talking about her career as well before the sats :P her parents were so cute on Sats 24/7 and I loved her Mum on CTS! :lol: Really enjoyed them last night at Newcastle, the crowd seemed really into it and they sounded much better than I was expecting, really fun concert! Really? I saw on Twitter the opposite :o :P
September 10, 201410 yr You love her really Tim :P I don't know ha EDIT: Sean, it really didn't stop apologisin :lol: Edited September 10, 201410 yr by *Tim
September 10, 201410 yr It's not a case of any of us noticing people being mean because it's down to how comments are conveyed/how the individual personally feels. Perhaps something we could all note when commenting because banter is banter to some, bullying/intimidation to others, for example. I don't believe people are always unintentionally mean, I mean have you been to Popjustice? I've seen people having an edgy comment towards him on Popjustice a lot of times. When I said I didn't noticed it, I was suggesting that I maybe missed something, because I'm not blind for people that take things a bit too far or atleast I hope, but if you feel personally offended by some little (smart a$$) comments or banters I think you should speak up. You shouldn't just feel bullied or intimidated, because someone made a bad joke about you. I get you could feel slightly uncomfortable with it, but if it's really that serious I feel like you should speak to the mods about it and I'm sure they could do or at least try something about. Bullying and Intimidation aren't just words you can throw around you know, I think it's very serious. I don't necessarily refer any of this to baby Shadow, but just in general. Correct me if I'm wrong. Y'all need to stop with the "crazy white chick with crazy red lipstick all over ha mouth" gifs. She freaks me out tbh :lol: :lol: :lol:

There is a MIGHTY fine difference between banter and bullying which gets crossed by accident because not everyone enjoys the same humour. I've not been offended by comments but that doesn't mean to say others haven't - which again, links to peoples interpretation on "banter". Edit: Agreed on this being a general thing - another thing we need to remember is even those who view the site that aren't necessarily members might find the atmosphere intimidating before they've signed up. :huh: Edited September 10, 201410 yr by Sean.

September 10, 201410 yr Pop justice can be a cruel world. Lee should think himself lucky he doesn't have a Seanie running riot on here...

I've not been offended by comments but that doesn't mean to say others haven't - which again, links to peoples interpretation on "banter". If you feel that type of way, you should let people know right? If I for example think someone can take a joke or two, but at the end of day he or she suddenly leaves because they felt 'bullied', leaves in my opinion just a lack of communication. But if I'm fully aware of how the people I joke about feel and still make nasty comments about them, then I feel like there is some serious bully going on. I totally get what you mean that people don't always feel comfortable by some jokes people make, especially when it's repeated. But people can't smell if you feel offended or not, it's just confusing sometimes. Pop justice can be a cruel world.

September 10, 201410 yr I might have got why Shadow was so upset, was there not a thing where people were calling him Una or something?

September 10, 201410 yr Hows that offensive tho? Una means shadow right? Edit: anyways I'm kind off done with this situation. If Shadow returns, I'll be ready to talk about what bothered him and who was involved in this so it can be resolved, but right now specualting about what happened doesn't matter, since he obviously he doesn't seem to want to talk about it for whatever reason Edited September 10, 201410 yr by *Tim

Who knows.
September 10, 201410 yr As far as I'm aware, no one has said anything insulting to him recently (or anything that could be taken as an offense) unless he's read an old post or something :huh:
September 10, 201410 yr Una is a member of a girlband we all spend our time chatting on a forum about goodness knows how much. It might be a bit snarky, but it's not that much of an insult. We're hardly calling him hitler. It's all in jest. People seem to have mainly positive about Shadow, including myself..he's a good part of the forum. I think he must have mis-interpreted something and will hopefully be back soon. Edited September 10, 201410 yr by Joe.
September 11, 201410 yr I used to enjoy popjustice, me, Flapjack and Totto were the best three. I left due to my love for Buzzjack.

Too great.
