Drama does suck a lot. :'[

But things always get worse before they get better. It's bound to happen if you do what you know is right and hold your head up high. :'D

And those 4 months will fly by in no time.

Yes it does :c

Teehee....they do seem, until another event occurs. I'll try ^^

Thanks Suna :)

You're not the only one amigo:

I see....though this probly is for one of my situations, this could come in handy for the attention whores :)

Oh the Anti-Drama Llama Movement was made to FIX attention whores.

Instead of ignoring attention whores or sinking down to a level of trolling attention whores, the Movement instead takes the approach of trying to get attention whores to snap out of it.

It's Objective #1 of the Movement.

I've already come across many people who have gotten so upset, so dramatized (if that's not a word, it is now), and so flustered over the most ridiculous of things. (Such as breaking/bending a PCA rule for the ongoing RP)

Instead of getting upset with them, the Movement's goal is to basically sit them down and show them that compared to the issues that other people are facing, their problems really aren't that bad. In addition, Movement members are encouraged to try and help negotiate a solution to fix these problems and help keep them from happening again in the future. When in the process of negotiating, if the parties involved are still causing a drama whirlwind, Movement members then have the right to put their foot down and read the riot act.

Explain that drama doesn't solve anything, that people need to be more mature about these things, that letting bygones be bygones is important, and that people will like them more if they don't become drama whores.

It may not be easy, but I would think that it is doable.

I just might need to help train members in how to deal with situations like that once enough members have joined.

Ah, thats an excellent movement.

I hope this works for someone who would lack maturity, I'm trying to ban him on dA because hes underaged and for screwing with peoples minds.

Well I'm 26 and while I'm not 100% mature (at least in my opinion), I have been around the block a few times and picked up on some things.

So have others here on this website, and pooling that wisdom together to help the young (who from my perspective are the most prone and susceptible to drama) resolve their issues and help them mature.

Granted, some issues are simply drama meritable. These are things such as death in the family, death of a loved one, death of a friend, death of a pet (okay, enough death), loss of job, loss of income source, eviction notices, finances, illnesses, and other unfortunate events that actually deserve sympathy, comfort, and solace.

That's where Anti-Drama Llama Movement Objective #2 comes in. For those with legitimate causes of grief who express them on FA, members are encouraged to lend a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, and emotional support. While distance keeps us from doing more in times of distress, sometimes members are closer than they think and can find a good friend to hook up and hang out with. Other times, just being there to hear someone out, talk to them, and let them know things will be okay can do wonders for someone's feelings.

This Objective counter-balances Objective #1 so that the Movement recognizes that some folks on FA do have real problems that need real attention. If we told everyone to just shape up, get over it, and quit fussing, then Movement members would come off as real jerks who are inconsiderate of feelings.

But on the contrary, I want the movement to be VERY considerate of feelings. Without heart, the movement will only beget more drama.

So that makes for Objective #2.

that's why i love ADVENTURE in stories.

what?

most of my fanfics have little to no drama in it ^^; sorry about confusing you

okay....

Im sorry Im always posting mixed up and unhappy journals. Just proves that a lot of peoples life isnt so hot and art and the net is one of a few escapes from so many problems that bring you down. Sometimes your page is the only place you can vent your woes

Its okay, I was a tad worried when you were going to leave the sites. Though I would try my best to encourage and keep you up here. But its not excatly that.

Its that alot of my internet friends always have something pulling against them, plus I have an art whore who faked his death and decided to come back...
But I'm afraid what would happen if I leave them and not help. Its a bit hard, as some of it may be pure drama being held against them (they didn't start it)

But yeh, drama sucks.

*not art whore, attention whore

I guess it cant be helped can it. Some people need attention

I guess....but I world rather, bleh, nevermind.

I think some people dont know how to get friends in a propper way so they drama llama for attention aswell. Others just feel hurt and need to post their problems. A corner in the world they can rant

He had a few friends, then really well known friends. I guess it was that he hasn't obtained maturity, as he made stories involoving him being in a dreadful car accident, his family being killed, then later, hisself. He was twelve though. :/

Ah, I can take the people who are hurt, because its a journal, a place where you can tell the world your personal feelings. I guess theres only a specific part of drama I'm aiming at.

I can't stand drama either. *hugs*

Some people just have fucked up lives I guess and have to bring it on the fucking web (including me). I'll be stopping that now.

BTW- Congratz on going to see Kristy :D

I just feel that I need a time where it all stops.....

I love you too Tanner *hugs back*

Thank you, I hope it can happen.
