Between Senden and Manni, there’s enough to go around. Please, Senden - be the bigger person and don’t feed the stream of …stuff. it takes two to tango. Just skip over her and you won’t feed each other’s narrative.
Yes this is getting tedious and of no general interest.
ridiculousness. I just popped over to the Dressage Forum to see what the biggest topic might be.
And this… bleh.
I don’t see sig lines, so I don’t know who has info there. For me, it was pointing out that someone anonymous to me ( I don’t think sig lines were actually mentioned) had info that could be found and suggesting people do that. What reason is there to point out that someones personal info is visible, in an acrimonious thread ,other than to hassle someone personally? Why not call things what they are ?
I don’t get the impression that SH want’s to HELP Manni.
For people who are not interested in the thread and find it useless,why not just stop participating?This thread is NOT compulsory
I was suggesting Manni safeguard her info- she has her name, farm name and business links…I can’t prevent you guys from making up all kinds of rumors about my motivations on why I posted that. But she didn’t care that it’s public, her call of course. I assumed everyone saw her sig… so no it’s not some “hey go look over there” motive. Manni has posted videos and things here a few times, I guess it was assumed everyone knew who she was, everyone I know DOES know who she is, so no need to draw attention to it.
And yes, it’s a sincere effort to understand how manni was bullied, I’m beginning to think it never happened here because there are no references. In that case, time to move on and assume it’s blown out of proportion.
I agree. The only actual bullying fizzled into a non-event. Which is actually good!
This forum is a yawn fest lately…
I think this thread has done it’s duty, time to move on.
Not sure whether this thread should be ended… I think the recent happening in Del Mar and whats going on now on FB about the ride makes it worth to discuss it some more…
You must have missed the post. Refer to post #189 by KBC.
Manni has been playing the victim since 2015. Called out by someone who is not even in this thread.
what do you mean? do you think that rider is being bullied?
I love your timing always on the spot… And I guess it is easy to say somebody is playing victim
I wonder how many times this argument was used by people who did harass or bully somebody…
Hi SendenHorse I don’t think anything. But there are obviously horse professionals who think that that campaign against the rider on FB and everywhere qualifies as bullying…
what do you think? you think that this is bullying? really?
Yes I do
why? how is that bullying? what defines general discussion vs bullying?
I think if a general discussion does not stop after some time it turns into bullying… If somebody rides horrible its ok to point out that he did. But it is not necessary to point that out 1000000 times… It does not change anything about the fact that the riding was horrible…
Timing?
I was away from a computer all weekend (which is typical for me), I came today and saw someone asked a question that I could answer.
Am I missing something? All I did was answer a question.
Just asking for clarification - So one person is allowed to say ‘wow that sucked’ and it is OK but once it has been said by one person no one else is allowed to chime in and agree or comment?
so what is the acceptable time limit?
it doesn’t change anything? did you see that backlash and suspension for the HJ rider due in part to this very same thing (online discussions)
what about that poor horse?
may I ask you something, if you read a thread where many many people wrote on many pages already that the rider was riding bad (some of them are even repeating it several times), is it really necessary for you to write it again. Is it important for you?? I cannot understand that attitude…
But you want to express your opinion on every thread that interests you, i’m Interested in where you would draw the line?
Would the same rule apply if someone posted a video of their stunning test, only 5 or 10 people could post before it is being too gushing?
It is in no way, shape or form on line bullying for the full might of the horse community to say that that abusive, horrible rude was abusive and horrible. That is many people repeating a fact.
I think you still do not understand what bullying is.
not sure why you are talking to me… Well known horse professionals mentioned that it was bullying… I just repeated their opinion
