Dear Webmaster,


Dear Webmaster,

I write this with the utmost sincerity. I am aware of someone who dedicated a big part of her life to CureZone. It was even instrumental in shaping her future, that was until recently. She endured a great deal of pain from being undeservingly attacked and defamed by fellow CureZonians and it changed her life and affected her faith in people and CureZone. I am deeply saddened and shocked by her story, which she shared with me privately. She has a heart of gold, because anyone who understands me and stands by me such as she did, is really a very special person and very intelligent. I am losing an Ally and CureZone is losing one of the best things that ever happened to it. I can very much relate to her situation and know how difficult her dilemma has been.

I am writing to you just to speak a little piece of my mind at how wrong I think it is for certain members to act like sharks in a feeding frenzy. It is a gang mentality in which a person is defended, regardless what they do, because they are part of the group. I think this behavior should not be tolerated on CureZone. There have been quite a few good people over the years who have left CureZone because of similar situations. Some have returned, some have not. Some have returned, only to have it happen again, and left again. I, myself, have been the target a few times. Most people who use CureZone are here to help people and are respectful and courteous. Unfortunately, there are a few who's egos drive others away. I will very shocked if this post is not attacked by those sort of people. They do not want to play nice with others, they simply look for every opportunity to antagonize fellow posters.

I am writing this for the person who was so hurt by this, for myself, and for any other member who has been a target. To those who feel they must attack this post and me, well, all I can say is "case in point". In fact, I fully expect to be attacked for this post, because it is exactly the point I am trying to get across by writing it. There are members who are jealous of other members and they love an opportunity to attack them on anything they can decipher as something bad or controversial, anything they can make a case out of. And, one of the characteristics of these members is to go after someone who not addressing them. They are hoping the gang mentality will rear it's ugly head and cause them to shine.

Why do I think this happens so often on CureZone? Two reasons: It is the disconnect that people have when communicating over the internet. Most act in ways they would not if they were dealing with others in person. Secondly, there are those who cannot form social relationships in real life. So, it is very possibly an insurmountable problem. The internet has created a very different dynamic as to how people relate to each other. What do I hope to accomplish with this post? If nothing else, an awareness of the intolerance that exists and above all I wish to point out that those who are criticizing and tormenting other members on a constant basis are no better than the person they are badgering, eventhough they may have a grandioso opinion of themselves. In fact, these behaviors are hypocritical and reminiscent of Peyton Place:
