I'm not getting angry at anyone particular. I'm just saying she attracts a lot more shit than anyone else. Not just from this incident. It's been going on for a while.

I remember getting blasted at for having a legitimate problem and venting it on this thread.

It's like it's always petty, or always in an attempt to get "aww didums" on here.

At the end of the day, she posted the picture originally, and she should not have reacted the way she did, especially considering the fact that she had posted the picture on the previous page. To react like that is hypocrisy at it's finest imo.

If she hadn't have posted the picture in the first place than it would be a completely different story.

This is just the straw that has broken the camel's back.

Benjo your comment would be valid if Kiwichick hadn't done it to someone else. Quite pathetic by some posters who single out Roar to say that he's making fun of her problems when he's having a joke, and doing the EXACT SAME THING as Kiwichick did on the previous page.


See my previous comment. Yeah, i wasn't happy when she posted that, it didn't make me feel great. But that's a one off. with her, it feels like every week someone calls her problem "typical teenage girl problems". You'd want to give it back if you got that all the time.



No you're taking Roar's post completely out of context. Sure Kiwichick does get some stick for her posts, but so do a lot of other people, not just her. And when a comment is so obviously tongue in cheek, for her to react like that is just silly. Roar wasn't having a go at her, that much is so obviously clear.

AJohn made a remark at me yesterday after I'd had a shit day. He meant it tongue in cheek. But it still pissed me off because I wasn't in the mood. Put yourself in her shoes. If you contstantly got shit in this thread, if someone made a tongue in cheek comment and you were in a shit mood, would you be ok with it? You wouldn't want to tell them to fuck off.

Maybe other people do get stick, but not as much as her. I've lost count of the number of times people have called her problems, 'petty'. Other people will back me up, no one seems to get more shit than her.

If anyone should be posting that picture, it should be me. And I haven't. I know Roar wasn't having a go at her. i'm more having a go at people who believe her problems are petty. Which is a lot of people. I'm not saying she was right to post the picture, but I do not think it's fair that people can call her problems petty and when she calls someone else petty, she gets lambasted for it. Maybe my problem was petty, but she was the only one who called me out for it. No one else did.

I also like the word 'petty'

At the end of the day this place represents a public medium were people can come to vent and put forward their opinions, when you post you knowingly leave yourself open to criticism or backlash from other people's opinions, its the way a forum works ffs. Sometimes things may get a little harsh but no lines are being crossed here and if you can't handle the opinions of others hurled your way maybe you shouldn't be here giving your own.

As for targeting, this was an innocent tongue in cheek response, yes KC and Benjo cop a fair bit but they are hands down the biggest contributors to this thread which leaves them easily open to this sort of thing. I mean Melbourne Victory fans cop more shit than anyone else because there are more of us which gives scope for more dickhead posters amongst us and gives trolls more license to attack us, at the end of the day if you don't post as excessively as you do then you decrease the weight of attention on you. It's all well and good for you to treat this thread like your personal diary but in doing so you have to be prepared for the opinions of others even if they are offensive or don't sit well with you, if you can't handle that then maybe it's time to evaluate whether or not you should be posting.

KC still cops more shit than anyone else for posting in here. It is like everyone goes a little afro v notor whenever she posts. Just lay off it for a while - it isn't all that hard to re read what you are about to post with your 'am I being a wanker for no reason' glasses on.

I find that keeping your problems off the e net is best unless on a proper help site. People are even bigger dickheads on the internet due to no consequences on what they say or do. IMO if you act different on the internet then it shows how fake you are irl.


Not talking about you Roar_brisbane or the whole kiwichick thing, just in general.

Not trying to be a cunt here or having a go at KC. But considering she posts the most in here that's kinda bound to happen.

Props Fredsta. Exactly right.

Coming on and reading you all bitching out is ridiculous. KC, you've got every right to post just like anyone else does. But if you're going to post constantly about when you're having a bad time, you've got to expect some kind of backlash. It's the internet.

Benjo, get over yourself as well champ - the same applies with what you said. It's a forum. People are going to respond to what you post and if you don't like it then you shouldn't post it. It's not like people are going out of their way to constantly bully KC all over the forum.

Yes, I realise Roar_Brisbane's post was a joke, just like I was only joking when I originally posted it, but it was pretty poorly timed.

KC posts a lot, full stop. If she has a thread in which to vent and she chooses to do so, why should she be attacked for posting in the appropriate thread? That goes for everyone.


I agree. You know this thread is a WGMG, so you more than likely to going to find someone complain about something that to you may be trivial.

Every post on here draws SOME kind of response. Just like yours will. If you're that precious defensive about your feelings/opinion, don't post it. Then people can't metaphorically stomp on it.

Frankly, yeah. This argument has gone on for two pages because you took offence to someone posting an internet meme in response to your post. If everyone did that this forum would be tedious as fuck.

In your case this is even more significant since several users have recommended you seek professional help on multiple occasions. Advice which you have declined to follow. So instead you'd rather wallow in your seemingly bipolar mood swings and flip your shit at users who call you out like they would any other forum member. You're not going to get special dispensation just because you're KC or because you're practically bipolar when you refuse to do anything about it.

And you/other users will probably call me an arsehole for this post, but someone has to say it.
