Question:
Should the likes of Starlight, Monster, Blink 182 drummer and other reporters be designated ambulance blockers
2007-12-30 10:53:49 UTC
If Monstar and similar types actually had something to say.

if he was giving valid advice, disagreed and said why he thought he was right and I or others were wrong. With genuine back up material... that would not be a problem


The problem is people like him are using the report system to remove posts and posters.


The effect when those people like me are trying to tell teens and others action that they must take, that if they do not in the next day or even a few hours...

Or blocked, posts removed, accounts suspended is much like someone blocking an ambulance trying to get to a seriously injured person or get that person to the hospital.

Or attacking paramedics so the person in need does not get the help at all or in time or take actions which will destroy lives.


Look at the kinds of questions in this area.


And think what if that was your daughter, age 12 needing to know if what she did last night or is going to do is going to get her pregnant.... Now add to

Wow, I'm quite surprised to not see my name on this list. Hmmmm....



Anyways "Avatar", I will not report this question, but will in fact address it. Do you honestly think that calling people out is the way to go about this? This is an OPINION site. Things that people ask, whether it be about pregnancy, suicide, or whatever......none of us here (or very few) are doctors, psychologists, or in the position to really help these people. We are all regular people who give our opinions.



With that being said, I think that if you came on here and had some questions that were well thought out, with proper grammar and spelling, instead of cutting and pasting the same links (many which don't even work anymore!), then maybe people would take you more seriously.



Honestly, just trying to read this, you lost me. It's not a well thought out argument, thus it is invalid. The only thing I got out of it was that you called out other users on this site (which is clearly, according to TOS illegal). However, as I said, I'm not reporting this. It's unfair for you to call out other users because quite frankly, I'm sure that many people on here are sick of seeing the same thing. The questions that you copy and paste do not make much sense. I don't know if there is some kind of language barrier or what it is, but I read a paragraph and my brain goes "Huh?" And I'm by no means a foolish person. I just think if you want to make an argument for or against something, it should be something that we can all understand.



With that being said, it is hard to believe that you talk about people reporting you when you have done much of the same. Several of your contacts have contacted me with the information that you have alerted them to report me and any others, no matter what we do. I think that's nonsense. This is an OPINION site and due to the fact that YA has no involvement in what gets a violation, many others on this site are being unfairly reported. I have gotten three violations too, because there are users who don't like me personally. Guess what? I'm not here for that. I am here to get my point across, and I feel I do a good job. Unfortunatley, not many people can handle that. In your case, you post multiple questions that no one can understand. Make it clear, to the point, and maybe people will start listening and quit reporting.

Perhaps a bit melodramatic. I understand that there are people in need of help on here and I fully believe that those willing to give good sound advice should be able to while those giving harmful advice should be reported. I have yet to see a post that tried to help that was then deleted, if you have an example I'd be glad to hear it. I truly don't think anyone has bad intentions when they report, and personally I've yet to see otherwise.
Mimkat hate the new Yahoo Answers so has retired.

It's you again.



Edit - I didn't read the email you sent me because it was abusive & uncalled for. When you can talk to me like a calm, rational, grown up & not hurl abuse at me, then & ONLY then will I read your posts & emails.

You may have good intentions with your posts but you're going about it entirely the wrong way, that's why your posts get deleted. But I don't think you are capable of reasoned intelligent debate or capable of giving out non-judgemental, balanced advice to potentially vulnerable teenagers, hence you are alienating yourself.

As the mother of 2 teenagers, I'd be horrified if somebody so abusive, offensive, childish & inflamatory was giving them advice.

Chill out a bit & stop thinking you know everything. Because you don't but sadly you won't suss that out until you've grown up yourself.



EDIT - I blocked you because of the abusive emails you sent me. So you have created another account to send me more abuse. Get your head out of your ar5e & grow up.

get off the high house and read the post...



|Do you know what narcisistic means? its like you can dish out insults



ie Dirty old man must have unsavory interest in teens. ring a bell?



But cant take it when thet person responds. The email was actually correcting you where you had things wrong.



But its much easier not to read it and say what you think its about and go oh the person spoke back to me so i wont read it... grow up... I read yours and starlights posts in entirty.



And responded point by point... why dont you post my response so people can see it... the whole thing.



******************

Additional... Starlight... would YOU PLEASE LEARN TO READ.....



if you look at my posts I am the most pro abortion here.





What you failed to read is it was not going to be a qualified docotr purforming the proceedure, with a decade of medical training, with supoort, facilities, anesthetic, clinical equipment, emergency equipment etc etc





IT WAS GOING TO BE DONE BY A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD BOY, SCARED SHITLESS OF HIS AND HIS 16 YEAR OLD GIRLFRIENDS PARENTS.





BOTH SO SACRED OF PEOPLE FINDING OUT THEY WERE THINKING OF RISKING DOING IT THEMSELVES. AND ASKING HOW TO DO IT.





CLARIFICATION.



WOULD YOU STARTLIGTH WANT A SCARED UTTERLY CLUELESS 16 YEAR OLF KID WITH ABOUT AS MUCH MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE AS MY GOLDFISH IN THE POND ATTEMTPTING A DO IT YOURSELF ABORTION ON YOUR 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER ON THE KITCHEN TABLE WITH SOME NEWSPAPER ON THE FLOOR WHEN YOU WERE OUT FOR THE DAY?



BASING THE PRCEEDURE ON WHAT A MATE SAID IN THE PLAYGROUND OR A SUGGESTION FROM SOMEONE THINKING IT WAS FUNNY TO SAY SCRAP IT OUT WITH A COATHANGER STICK UP HER VAGINA?





WELL STARLIGHT? WOULD YOU WANT THAT DONE TO YOUR DAUGHTER?



Thats just a wee bit different and just an itsey witsey more hazardous to the health of said 16 year old girl...



And what do you think ... seeing as you have wroked in a hospital a 16 year old trying to do that to his girlfriend would do why he screwed it up and pieced said womb?



And not just the effects of said girl woul may say something a little less polite then 'ouch that tickles my love'.





Not to mention the effects on what killing or crippling or if she survives the infertility on said girlfriend would do to both families and the boy concerned.





ya kinda getting why im some what upset when the only post telling him dont do this and why was removed. Possibly before he saw it. Some things are much more of concern then a debate on is captialisim or socialisim is best?





And you see why I was not exactly calm about this... plus do you not think its our adult responsibility to try and protect kids and send them to a professional to get siad abortion whereby a few minor miscarriage abortion pills is just a we bit safer then coathangers or some dodgy posionous cocktail or god knows what outher bs on how to do an abortion yourself if a scared 6 year old boy is going around.



Incidently the sacastic tone is to get the point accorss

However If I see info clearly wrong going to get a kid hurt I will point it out to the personand correct them

You are one nasty son of a bit*ch,



YES but only to people I see abusing me or endagering teenagers and when that comes to certain relgions whith horrendous records of abusing people I tend to see them from their victems point of view.



iwe chrisitintiy from the poitnof view of gays and witches burnt at the stake and islam from the victems of honour killing.



Unlike you I dont look up to these groups as see the beliefs for waht they are and very hurtful...





So Im only as nasty as a superheron battling bad guys... To teens I am nice except if it means pushing someone to get help so they dont wait around and get more hurt.



Other then that you will find me very nice



quote



I normally put a lot of thought into every answer I give, and by the way, I am a college graduate



Actually NO



This and the last post are the first you have given with any detail whatsoever or any thought and the rest were slagging me off on-route to the report button.

Most of the people who are served by the agency I work for are people who have developmental disabilities like Autism and Asperger's Syndrome- and somehow, given the kind of ranting and raving you do all the time, I doubt you even know what those conditions are, or how they affect a person's life.





lol- actually as usual you are very wrong... actually i have looked into great depth into asbergers and adhad and autisim... and been tested for them... came up high scores but not ebnough for an offical diagnosis...





Was looking for explaination of high IQ, high rationality, intelligence but poor social skills andyou should have seen from ... obsessive posts in great detail but struggling with communication I have elements of that...



Incidently Despite a lot of snapping back I am impressed with this post... you should do more like it and im learning about coders...





Now why dont tyou do posts like this all the time.? instead of thats rubbish im reporting you?



Coders... = trnaslating data into understandable presentable info...



Thats means you should be able to rewite my data and info inot a clearer post should it not... so instead of attacking me why dont you?

In light of this, perhaps you can see why I get so incensed by your attacking me and calling me stupid,





THATS AS YOU DO IT TO ME AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LAST TWO POSTS YOU DONT INDICATE ANYTHIGN YOU KNOW OR TRYAND BE HELPFUL YOU SLAG OFF AND REPORT...





STOPPING KIDS GETTING THE help THEY NEED

STARLIGHT.... FOR SOMOEN SO SMART YOU REALLY DONT SEEM TO GET IT DO YOU?





WHEN YOU HAVE POSTS GIVING PEOPLE THE INFO THEY NEED AND WHERE TO TURN . THEY DONT GET THAT HELP HENCE YOU STOP THEM GETTING THE HELP THEY NEED.





INSTEAD OF ATTACKING ME AND GOIGN ON ABOUT SPAM WHEN I TRY AND GET INFO TO KIDS... WHY DONT YOU GO...



THATS A GREAT BIDEA... HERES SOM GOOD LINKS FROM AMERICA...

but that is because I am an American, and I know that the type of system which you are advocating, where the government runs the health care system, will never work in the US. I LIVE HERE,



THATS SILLY... LOOK MATE... EUROPE HAD THEY SYSTEM YOU HAVE THERE... ie if you have money you pay... then they worked aout a better system... if it worked for them it world work for you.





its just rich greedy drug comaonies dont like it so get people like you to stop changing the system as they would loose money...

Im nasty in responmse to nastyness from people like you



If you note As soon as Nikki and you have started to back off and post reasoned answers I have tried to answer you back reasonably as well.





Why would I report this post.





you have done as asked and made up a reasoed well through out post.





If you guys get off my back and let me get on with it... I can spenm the time helping teens here where unlike most of my jibs after uni I can actually do a lot of good if people let me.





As said with all yoru research could you not come up with some ifno to help out so we can work together helping kids not fight?



thats why I came here in the first place and would far rather spend time doing.





Look cloasely at the way you have been behaving... and you will find my accusation was very correct...



And this time it seams to have got through to you the damage done by all the fighting here.



As said I have been poltical most of life... trying to help and operate on if the system dont work fix it.



If you really mean what you are saying get everyone off my back. stop the reporting wars and help each other out helping people here.

First of all, Avatar, I HAVE NEVER STOOD IN THE WAY OF ANYONE GETTING HELP IF THEY REALLY NEED IT. I do not know why you would accuse me of such an offense- and yes, I am going to report this question as a personal attack, because it is one. If I had a daughter who was 12, and she came to me needing help, I would give it to her- and you are a real Sh*tHEAD to think that I wouldn't. I am NOT STUPID, Avatar, and I don't appreciate this kind of asinine, juvenile behavior, especially from someone who claims to work in the field of youth counseling.



The reason I report and block your questions is because you keep attacking not only me, but other people. You are one nasty son of a bit*ch, I will say that much. I normally put a lot of thought into every answer I give, and by the way, I am a college graduate. I am also a certified medical coder- do you even know what coders DO? I currently work in the field of mental health, and I know and work with several PhD's and doctors. Most of the people who are served by the agency I work for are people who have developmental disabilities like Autism and Asperger's Syndrome- and somehow, given the kind of ranting and raving you do all the time, I doubt you even know what those conditions are, or how they affect a person's life. Coders are important people in the medical field, Avatar- I belong to a profession which, among other things, was the first to recognize the links between smoking and heart disease, and smoking and cancer. The world's first coders WERE doctors- they were epidemiologists, or people who study epidemics. For a long time, coding was actually part of medicine, but it finally emerged as a separate but closely allied profession in the early 1980's, around the time I was in high school. They have coders in every country in the world, including the UK, where you live. We are translaters- we take information on a medical record and using numeric and alphanumeric codes, translate that information into something which an insurer or researcher can understand and use. Coders are even more important to medicine in some ways than the doctors are, because it is we who determine who gets paid, how much, and how often- the doctors DON'T. Coders help society in a lot of ways- we help track epidemics and pandemics, such as AIDS, SARS, West Nile Virus, the Avian Flu, and a whole host of other diseases, including things like Ebola, Typhoid, Cholera, and Hepatitis outbreaks worldwide. Coders were the first to recognize that seat belt use in cars saves lives- one reason why the US now has a federal law mandating their use in every state is because of the work of coders. The same thing is true of bike helmets, and there are a number of states which also mandate use of bike helmets, including helmets for motorcycle riders.



In light of this, perhaps you can see why I get so incensed by your attacking me and calling me stupid, or accusing me of stopping kids from getting the help they need. I do not stop anyone from getting help- indeed, time and again, I have actually urged kids who come on here seeking help to get it. True, I disagree with you about the way the sex ed system here should be changed, but that is because I am an American, and I know that the type of system which you are advocating, where the government runs the health care system, will never work in the US. I LIVE HERE, Avatar- you do not, nor do you understand America and the way it works. I know that our rates of certain STD's are higher than anywhere else in the world, because part of what I get paid for is to know these things. But putting the government in charge of peoples' basic health decisions is NOT going to solve that problem.The same goes for sex education. There are too many religious and civil liberties groups which are active here for a system like the Dutch or British system of sex ed to work. Plus, the Dutch system was designed around the fact that their form of goverment is a monarchy- something we are not and never will be. We didn't fight the Revolutionary War for no reason, Avatar. Holland is also a country which is less than a third the size of the US, and has a much smaller population base. By advocating what you are, you are trying to fit a square peg into a very tight, round hole.



As far as my reason for coming here to answer questions- I do that because this is one of the few columns on YA where people ask questions which relate to what I do professionally. I have been a member of YA for almost a year now ( I joined last February) and I initially started out in the Horse Racing section, because at that time, the Horses section didn't exist yet. I was one of the people who pushed YA hard to give those who loved and rode horses, but were not necessarily involved in racing, a separate section of their own. It took almost 6 months, and a lengthy e-mail and letter campaign by me and several other people, before our request was finally granted. During that time, I earned and held the "top contributor" title for a while- but after a time, I got a bit bored with only answering horse questions and decided to branch out. After doing some browsing, I found this section. NO, this is not the only place I answer questions in- I actually go to many other columns, which is why I don't have the "top contributor" label in any one of them any more. However, even given all of the places I answer questions in, you will notice that I have NEVER changed my profile due to a suspension, and that I am NOT a troll, or a person with multiple accounts. I have only ONE account, and this is it. The reason I started with horses is because prior to starting work in the coding field 8 years ago, I was a horse professional for over 20 years. I have a strong working knowledge of equine first aid and veterinary medicine, and I worked mainly on the management side of that business. I also hold instructor's credentials, and have taught riding for several years to both kids and adults. I really enjoy sharing my knowledge, Avatar, and I don't appreciate someone like you coming along and telling me I am a troll, which isn't true, or telling me that I am stopping people from getting the help they need, which also isn't true.



It's YOU who have the problem, pal- and I think you owe me and these other askers you mentioned an apology. We are ALL FED UP with your nastiness, and I will only say that I wish YA would block or suspend your account. By the way, you can report me, but if you do, be advised that I will point out that I have a right to defend myself against such an unfair accusation. I believe that YA will be more likely to side with me.





BTW: Abortions do NOT kill 16 year olds,or anyone else, unless they are done illegally in a back alley somewhere. I should know- I have a close relative who had one when she was nearly that age, and today, she's a college graduate, married, and the mother of two beautiful boys. The abortion obviously didn't kill her, now, did it? I will continue to report your attacks on me and on other people as long as you keep them up. When you start acting like a calm, rational adult, then I will stop the behavior.
