Fine, took the journal down. And I never said blacklist, I said post. Since I had seen it on other women's profiles, and have better things to do than read the TOS of every single site I join, mea culpa. But, WOW. Real easy to sit behind your screens and type that venom against someone you don't even know. I guarantee you wouldn't be so rude to me if you met me and I had told you the story in person. So valet park that high horse and excuse me for trying to help a sista' out! Did I screw up? Yes. By having the least little faith that I would get an answer to my question, not criticism. Ya know what? I DID move on, and it's NOT High School bullshit. Red flags aren't always red... Fool me once. Got it.

YEAH! OK I GET IT!!!!!! There was study on customer service that if you have a good experience with a service/store you will tell 2 people, if you have a bad experience, you'll tell average of 9 people. So today I learned more of life's endless lessons...Never type when PMS'ing. And just roll your eyes and move on. You too.

A blacklist is a blacklist, regardless of what you call it. It is what it is.

Since I had seen it on other women's profiles,
Just because you've seen it on other profiles, that doesn't make it right.

and have better things to do than read the TOS of every single site I join, mea culpa.
It's your responsibility to read the TOS when you join a site. When you click that little box, it's saying you DID read them. Now you say you don't, so does that make you a liar? In which case, why should we believe what you say now? Bottom line? Ignorance of the TOS is no excuse.

But, WOW. Real easy to sit behind your screens and type that venom against someone you don't even know.
Venom? I have no idea what you're talking about. If you think this is venom, well, you haven't seen anything yet. This is mild, considering you stomped into the forum with your little rant. You post on an open forum, you don't get to pick and choose your replies.

I guarantee you wouldn't be so rude to me if you met me and I had told you the story in person.
Then your guarantee would not be worth much. I am the same way on these boards that I am in "real life," maybe a little nicer here actually. If you came up to me, say, on the street and started ranting about phonies/liars/abusers without showing me any proof to back up your accusations, I'd probably come right out and tell you to quit your F'in whining and shut your piehole. haha

So valet park that high horse and excuse me for trying to help a sista' out!
You are NOT my "sista'."My sister is a lot more mature than what I've seen here and she owns her own shit.

Did I screw up? Yes. By having the least little faith that I would get an answer to my question, not criticism.
You screwed up alright, but not the way you think. You screwed up by coming onto this forum and having your little rant. You expect sympathy? No one wants to hear someone rant or tantrum. That's why they answered they way they did.

Ya know what? I DID move on, and it's NOT High School bullshit.
You could have fooled me. You're acting very high schoolish on here. "But eeeeeveryyyyone's doing it!!!!!" Yeah. Whatever.

Red flags aren't always red... Fool me once. Got it.
They are if you're paying attention.

Nope. This thread will live on forever. Now anyone and everyone that looks at your profile can check your posting history and find out what you're really like. Karma's great, isn't it!

In all honesty, this is the only CM profile I have. Nope, can't prove it...it's the truth nonetheless.

I was simply making an observation/stating an opinion (and you know what they say about opinions!). I may be new here, but not to internet message boards in general. Same here as every other WWW address.

Is there a place, either on these boards or elsewhere, to post negative experiences/warnings to protect other members of the community from phonies/liars/abusers, etc?
