Anyone that thinks that @delcan would be deliberately malicious or try and hurt anyone with her comments is completely off their rocker.

I have no idea why she's been singled out. Maybe because she is one of the more regular posters in here so she was an easy target. Who knows...but it either way I think it's wrong.

Totally agree @Gemini. Take heart @delcan and remember that those that love, know and understand you is all that matters in this life.

It amuses me that people justify bad behaviour with "well other people have said much worse...". It doesn't make it right.

THANK YOU, that excuse drives me insane. Like we have no control over what we say. What I say doesn't need comparisons.

These last few pages are beyond amusing to me. I stopped posting because I lost interest, and when I thought of posting I realized it wasn't worth it. I have never cared one way or another about Tully, but let me be clear, a HUGE reason I didn't feel like jumping back in, was because since the site has been back, I've seen 1 poster, often with multiple posts, one right after the other, just being negative. I respect some people revel in that, for me, that kind of environment is a turnoff. All this to say, if I walked away with that impression, it's not shocking at all that Tully or anyone else would. Again, people can write what they want to, but don't be so shocked when you turn people off with your comments. When you say mean,hurtful, and negative things, guess what? You may hurt someone, and when you say something nice, you may brighten someone's day. I think we all know how words work, so no sense feigning ignorance. People will pick up on whatever you're throwing out. If you're comments are generally nasty, I may just start to think of you as a nasty person. If you never have a shirt on in your pics, I'm going to come to a certain conclusion about you, from what you're choosing to show. Those are my 2 cents. Just wanted to answer those wondering how Tully might have come to her conclusion, because I and others have come to the same one.

Enjoy your site, guys. Veronica, thanks for the pics.

I've always thought of this forum as being underground and have never felt comfortable with ex HM's reading or joining the forum. To me it's like a secret club, of course we don't know these HM's, most of us don't know anyone we see on TV but we all have our heroes and villains. Sometimes we admire them, sometimes they infuriate us and sometimes we just go WTF!

It would be hard reading negative comments about yourself but we all have an opinion...even Tully. I hope the peeps at 123cabs
weren't too offended by her tweet last week. ;)

Hey @13cabs - you're a piece of shit. I hate when I'm given cab charge cards and therefore have to put up with you. @Uber_Melbourne forever!

I think it's a shame you're still choosing to be passive aggressive when the lines of communication have been opened over this issue. If you don't feel comfortable using someone's name and confronting them directly that's fine...but trying to shame someone without even using their name isn't helping anything IMO.

The only conclusion I come to about Leo posing with his shirt off is that he makes his living based on his looks. I have no other conclusions to make about him as a person. He's earning money the same way Tully does.

Glad you found the past few pages amusing.

I assumed she meant me. I often end up with posts in a row because I post on a different time schedule.

It's ok with me. I find some things the former housemates do in their self promoting photos are ridiculous. I don't feel bad for commenting on that.

looks like reflection in a window to me
the guy is sitting next to a window, there is someone sitting on the other side of the window indoors ... the weird stuff you mention is reflection is it not?

Yes it is a reflection of sorts, I'm not doubting that. It just looks unsual.
No deeper meaning implied.
Continue the antics.

I am not sure you were who that was about, but I can't be certain.

The problem with the online world especially in a world of 140 characters or less is that understanding the meaning and intent of the written word can get hazy. Tone can be easily misread, and specifics are often not verbalised. Tully has said there are hurtful things being said without specifying what is acceptable. I think it is safe to assume based on her career choice that she wants people to notice her on social media, and to remember what she is posting about. Indeed this forum helps her marketing! However there are things said on here which have overstepped a boundary for her, but without knowing what we are all left to speculate whether every comment made is offensive. What is fine to one person is bullying to another, and we don't know others backgrounds, experiences or insecurities to know when something that may be meant non maliciously may be hurtful to someone else.

I think this is why I lurk more than comment, because I am not here to offend, even though I know I have unintentionally.. But if we all lurked social media would die lol

Guerrilla style photo shoot with the boys from @statement_au in the middle of a busy #sydney street. @nic_mesker the evil genius behind the camera. Check out my Facebook page for the video. @siksilk@statement_au#LRB#photoshootfresh

Having began my working life in hospitalityI've thoroughly enjoyed eating my way through the week! @marchedumacaron which opened its doors this week, is Brisbane’s first retailer specialising exclusively in premium handmade gluten free #macarons. I made myself quite at home at the official launch, touring the kitchen & basically trying every yummy flavour of #macaron in sight
