After receiving a massive amount of feedback from the community (all of which was appreciated as most of it was constructive and very insightful) I've decided to leave bitchbook and flamecup open. You know why, because this kind of shit happens every single day whether you like it or not. If you decide to participate in it then so be it, good for you. I am not here to tell you what you can partake in and what you cannot. It's up to you.

It's also up to you as a member of Scribbld.net as to what you post in your personal journals. It's up to you to set the security of a post, it's up to you as to whether or not you want to post that nude photo of you drunk last New Years. I do not care (so long as you're of age, 18), but you do so willingly and under the understanding that people will be able to view those images, text or anything else you post should it be public or under a friends only post.

Choose your friends wisely. I cannot police how you choose your friends, but make sure you trust who you friend on this website. I do not have anything do with MySpace, FaceBook or other journaling websites.

Communities like flamecup thrive on you posting something you shouldn't be posting. Don't add fuel to the fire, it's not that hard to avoid communities like that. No one is forcing you to look at them or read/view them. I personally stay away from them unless there's something going on that I need to be aware of. If you cannot handle them then definitely just stay away, stay within your group of friends and trusted communities.

I apologize if this is not the outcome you had wished for but for the sake of keeping as much peace as possible, I ask you, the users of Scribbld to make sure whatever you post or link to or people you affiliate yourselves with, that you trust them. It's not that much to ask, and why shouldn't you...why would you want to get involved into drama sorts of things, by you commenting or adding fuel to their fire, you only have yourself to blame. I am not asking you to join those communities to police them, just stay away. Enjoy life, enjoy your friends, post those nude New Years photos, but only to people you trust...most importantly think about what you post before you post it and to whom you're posting it too.

Some people just need to grow up...some people just need to step back...whatever it is, don't let this stupid website own your life...it's a friggin website...stay in the communities you're comfortable with and friend who you know and trust, yeah some friendships go back, just remove them from your friends list...the moderators on the community have rules and if anything/anyone breaks their rules they're good about removing it. Yes, maybe not right away but it does get done...

The decision is final, and I hope you all respect it. Thank you for you time.
