RE: Downvoting and Reputation - My thoughts on what works and what doesn't
This makes sense, especially from a peaceful perspective. Why engage in negativity, or with anyone who is being negative? I've dropped and blocked more than 100 people on Facebook. Sometimes, it's just because I don't know them in person very well (and I want my account to be for people I actually know), and other times, it's because they said something, or more than one thing, that pissed me off and made me not want to engage with them anymore. Whatever the reason for dropping and blocking, it was always a wonderful, freeing feeling, like cleaning out a closet. You're cleaning out the negativity and lightening your load, so you can live a freer, happier life, like you're meant to. Terrific post.
When I started doing it, it was quite a revelation just how much these people's antagonistic and horse-crap laden shit was making me waste my time and taking away from my life.
In fact, leaving facebook altogether was a revelation in a similar way. I don't miss facebook at all.
