... to move on.
The CC Singles has been a wonderful place for me - like my home on CC. It's the only forum I check on a daily basis. Thanks to the wonderful people who made the CC Singles awesome. You know who you are.
First of all I wish to thank God for the internet and for the wi-fi. Secondly, I wish to thank the CC Admin RoboOp for creating such a wonderful site and for maintaining it without the pesky and sometimes vulgar Ads. Next, I thank the Admins for giving me 2 Rep points and for not censoring me during my moments of madness. Last but not least I thank all the CC Singles whom I've interacted and befriended here and on CC Chat. I owe it all to you for supporting me along the way.
Though I've spent a few months here and I've reached a significant milestone in my CC growth, a few incidents that have happened on here have rattled me a bit. I wish these things had not happened, but I have realised that this is the "way of life" around here. I came here expecting love, fellowship and brotherhood but that was hardly to be seen. Being part of the CC Singles I thought that this will be a community of people who would understand and support each other through life's struggles. Unfortunately it's not.
As far as I know, I have never offended anybody on this forum. Despite our obvious cultural differences, I have taken great pains to be politically correct and be sensitive to my fellow brethren here. However, some people clearly don't appreciate it. I've been called various names including 'bear', 'Roh', 'Chris', 'bro', etc. which is quite insensitive to my feelings. The proverbial 'last straw' happened over last weekend. There was a particular instance of trolling which gave me a horrible shock. As CC Singles was the first thing I check in the morning, this trolling left me devastated and upset. I was not expecting this to happen to me. It took me about 10 minutes to calm my frayed nerves. I looked around and I soon found out the troller. Though I rarely confront a troll, having read a few recent posts requesting men to "grow up" and "man up", I decided to reprove the troll regarding this issue. I drafted a tersely-worded email which carried a warning that I would haul the troller to court. Unfortunately, the seriousness of the message was lost and the troller got offensive and dared me to do it.
After much thought, I have decided that I have had enough with this tomfoolery. I have been silent for far too long and many have taken advantage of it. Hence, on this momentous occasion of me reaching 1,000 posts, I hereby declare war on all the trolls who have trolled me on CC. You know who you are. I am coming for you. Because -
Sorry, I meant to post this ...
