    kaylar wrote a new post, Not to be Hurt when a Scam Site Goes Down 7 years, 10 months ago

    What hurts so much when a Scam site goes down, is not just being left unpaid, it is losing work. Many people write articles that matter to them. Maybe it is the topic, maybe it is the research they did, but they […]

    • you are right When a site becomes known to be a scam site and when it is closed we broke.
      We writers generally put our ideas into good sentences with appropriate words and even do research depending upon the topic we choose We work hard It takes nearly 3 hrs to prepare a decent article with research. Noting down the points and the references will consume a lot of time. As far as writing is concerned it will take half an hour as it is a just a cakewalk for us.

      When taking so much of pain we write and our article is published, and if the site goes into oblivion then there will be a pinch of disappointment.

      I had this experience with one site. That is not a blogging site. After the accumulation of $66 they said that they do not have any money with them. I issued a legal notice through my friend who happened to be an internet expert and doing practice and also informed the INTERPOL agent. They are now at it. I do not want to leave that fellow.

      If anybody faces such problem better they give the information along with the details of the site with a snapshot of the amount accumulated in their account.

      The days are changing Nobody should allow such things to happen and must teach them an appropriate lesson.

      I am also seeing to file a case against fb for his cheap marketing techniques The compensation would be in for $1 million. I am gathering information on that.

    • It’s hard to say that we should not get hurt when a site does not pay us for our work, and then shuts down. I have been a victim before and it was not nice. Considering the fact that i had our in so much time and effort. Anyway when it comes to the things that I write on site it’s merely what I research, read about or watch on television then I share. Real experiences are few and those are things that don’t leave your mind that easily. They stick to you so you can’t really say that you will loose them at some point. I always say that if you do something that you are interested in or you cannot forget about it, it will always ring in your mind. Whatever we write on sites should be something that will definitely encourage or uplift someone else so if you share you cannot forget about it. People will only save this work when they know they will be sharing it elsewhere. It seems like there are more and more scan sites coming up then genuine ones. The real one’s are very few so people have to be very careful when they are working in certain sites.

      • On some sites I do research, I prepare a document of the best quality. And if I lose it, sure I can sort of recall what I wrote, but to do it again? That makes me rather sad.

    • Oohh my you have absolutely shocked me when you say that Jamaicans bleach! I have always upheld Jamaicans in high regard for the way they embrace their culture but this has definitely down graded them close to zero. Nigerians are known for this things ever since time in memorial. They are the queens of bleach, there is this one time a friend of mine told me that man from Congo and Nigeria bleach themselves and I refused but as time went but I began to see it for myself. My country is also becoming addicted to this bleaching agents Nigeria being the top supplier. Am sorry to say this I don’t mean to offend anyone but it’s the truth. We can’t really blame them, if someone wants to be white let them be. I just fail to understand that people never learned from what Michael Jackson went through may his soul continue to rest in peace. This but suffered so much in the name of being white, to the point of his death and people still bleach themselves? Lots help us. What is so good about being white, when the whites are busy trying to ten themselves blacks are busy trying to bleach themselves why can’t we just be content with who we are? This thing about people bleaching so that they can get better jobs or better looking husbands or wives or trying to get rich is all absolute nonsense. People need to wake up to reality that even if you bleach yourself it’s only the outside that changes the inside will always remain the same your blood will never change it will always remind you that you were a black person once in your life and you will always be. Not unless you want to die and ask God to ressurect you as a white person. This really kissed me off be happy with yourself don’t try to change to somebody your not. BLACK IS BEAUTY ENJOY IT!

      • If you ever look at a picture of Vybz Kartel, or of Sandra Faulkner, (she was an Advisor to the PM) the level of bleaching will shock you. It is horrible. The skin gets destroyed. A Dr. told me that the ‘bleaching creams’ peel layers of the skin off. Some of the creams were to remove age spots or blemishes… just touched on the blemish… not massaged into the skin.

    • It is unfortunate that in the countries like Congo, Nigeria, Mali, Nigeria, and Jamaica people are after going for bleaching their whole bodies whereas in European countries the whites in their eagerness to appear black and brownish are going to beaches with creams meant for tanning their skin. Looks very funny
      The statistics reveal that it is only Jamaica which is a big supplier of bleaching products and the good market to use them are Congo and Mali just for getting good positions in the jobs
      But, they are not realizing the fact that BLACK IS ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL. Lord Vishnu is black in color whereas Radha is fair. Lord Shiva is fair and Parvathi is black in color as per the description given in ANCIENT TEXTS. It is right to say that the bleaching can be taken up to make bodies white but there is no product that can bleach inside.

    kaylar wrote a new post, Judging a Man By the Woman on His Arm 7 years, 10 months ago

    The reality is that women judge men by the woman on their arm.   No matter what they look like, who they are, the woman they are with defines them.

    You might see Rick and think he is handsome or bright or […]

    • I honestly couldn’t have said this any better myself.

    • If a man is judged by the woman by his hand what is a woman judged by is it the man at her side too? Just thinking. We have been taught in our early ages that we should not judge a book by its cover right? But do people ever take that seriously I don’t think. Judging a person because of their status or who they are is wrong, you may judge and get very disappointed that what you thought was good turned out to be the worst thing ever. People have often said that a man will take a beautiful girl out on a date so that his ego can be boosted or so that he can have status, it may be true but is it right? We need to know what it is that we want in our lives, if you have a lady who you think is not good enough to be seen with you in public do your homework and make her be what you want her to look like don’t look at other women and say that your girl is not beautiful. It’s your duty to make her beautiful. Another thing when you look at someone you cannot judge them by the way they look, that may say very little about them what matters is what is within. He or she may look gorgeous or handsome on the outside but what about the inside does it have love it hatred it’s all a matter of choice so choose widely.

      • yes. You are right I really agree with you. When a man does not find the thing in his lady his greatness lies in making her beautiful. This is called the true manliness. He should at least make an effort. Why search for a beautiful lady who has nothing to do with his status? The same lady can be used up by anybody to elevate some other’s status also. Now, what is happening to the very concept of status? Everything lies not in the beauty of the lady in your arm but in her inner beauty. It is a mere foolishness to think that a beautiful lady will elevate the status of a man. So much so the vice versa.

        • It is sad to say, but it works. A guy who walks in with a beautiful woman has his status raised. That is why many companies provide ‘escorts’. These are NOT Prostitutes, these are beautiful intelligent women who are paid to go out with a man. They don’t have sex with him.

      • When a woman is seen with a NOthing man, it is assumed he is rich or famous. It is assumed ‘he has something’. If, over time, it is learned he doesn’t well then people try to figure out why she married him… assuming some ‘back story’.

    • Some interesting things do happen in life In the case of Karen she misunderstood Dave who treated her only as a friend. She should know about that when she observed him taking a light of things. But, blindly followed him. She only assumed that Dave is liking her going a little bit further in understanding friendship.
      In the latter case, Joan was used of. Frank used her with selfishness He looked at her wallet and not her beauty He looked at the power of her money. She thought that the man is running after her just because of her beauty. What a funny and sorry thing One is involving misunderstanding and the other a simple PLAY. One should know that it is not the only man who plays off. But, there are women also who play with men nowadays.
      There are women who play with men and use them just for fulfilling their desires.

      • Yes, definately. People read things into relationships when they are clear to an outsider. It is like you giving a lift to a person who is on your route to work who works at the same or near place…the person could be a 19 year old man, a 60 year old woman… you are doing a favour.. this isn’t ‘romantic’.

    • You know a man and a woman are two different beings, we both think differently, and we all have our own ways of showing love. So the thing here is people need to communicate their feelings openly and directly don’t beat about the bush just say it as it is because there will be misunderstandings and someone will eventually get hurt. It’s really not about women misunderstanding themselves, it’s really about the men misleading the women. A man can make you feel like he is truly in love with you, he will lead you on and get you so comfortable to the point of you thinking that you are all that he needs, when In actual truth he is only using you for his own selfish gains. This is to the guys if you are going out with a girl it would be prudent enough to state your intentions right from the begining instead of wasting the girls time. And for the ladies please even if this but promised you th3 world do not fret to ask questions that will give you a hint on whether the guy is serious not. Never assume that a guy or a girl lives you be keen in the way they beha a around you and you will get some clues of you are in or out.

      • Too many people either ‘read’ something into a relationship which is not there, or ignore the facts. There are many people who think you are ‘good company’ and might invite you to some public function. That doesn’t mean they love you or want you. There are many people who see what you have and want it, and befriend you to get it. So you just have to live in the Now.

    • That is why nowadays women are not leaving men and are becoming more intolerable. They are learning to be bold enough to come out openly with verbal arguments and if possible they are even engaging others to beat their man. This is how the relationships are existing now
      Men, most of them are now on account of their social interaction with different people are learning the meaning of LIVING TOGETHER IN HARMONY and are treating women with respect both inside the house as well as outside
      Of course, the bashing of women is still taking place. But, there are always people who interfere in such occasion and are not hesitating to take the man bashing the woman to task, even by lodging a police complaint

      • The term ‘wife bashing’ means verbally abusing one’s wife to a 3rd party. It is not physical abuse.

    • This thing called marriage is getting more and more complicated owing to the fact that people are getting married at a very tender age and most of them are not actually ready for that commitment, we keep hearing of early divorce, there is the abuse, no one knows when to be submissive or when to compromise When a disagreement comes up everyone raises their voice, and what ends up happening us a lot of noise coming from either side. It’s quite unfortunate. Men who go discussing about their marital or home affairs to other women definitely have a problem. Most of the time man would keep quiet and try to deal with the problem in their own way. He will not even take his problem to a fellow man for fear of being taken as a coward. That is what a grain man would do. Butbthe young one’s will not even think twice about going to tell their friends about their arguments. So I think she has everything to do with it the older you are the better, you will handle things in a more mature way. There are those men who will confuse in another woman after thinking so hard about it. And they will only arrive to this decision when they feel talking to a woman will give them a better incite on how to deal with the problem. There is also a way he will approach it not by bashing the wife or calling her names. He knows that he needs to accord her all the respect that she needs.

    • In life there is always a downfall where you feel like giving up to the dreams of yours you were fighting for but when goals seems unreachable for you there is always a tendency that you would feel helpless but this difficulties should not be a hindrance but a test how far you can go to succeed in life. One should not lose hope but face the challenge with positive attitude, strong motivation, and perseverance to surpass them all in order to achieve the victory of success. Its more worth if you succeed with your own determination to succeed inspite of the many hardship your going to face in your life’s battle. In every difficulties that one person will encounter we should take it as our training ground to mold us into a better character to fight for our dreams, to aim high, for us to high high and reach for the stars that you’ve wanting to have.

      • You reach a point where you are somewhere left of indifference. it is like going to a particular supermarket and explaining to the owner that they should move the carts so that there is more parking. The Owner doesn’t move the carts. So you go to another supermarket.

        At one point, you cared. You wanted to shop here. You made the effort to inform the owner of the problem. You returned, the problem was not fixed. You shrugged, now are indifferent. You go to another supermarket. You have no intention of going back to the first.

        You don’t care if they are having a sale or if that first supermarket goes out of business. The mere fact that there is no where to part because of the carts has demotivated you.

    • My partner in New Zealand is a happy loner. He prefers to be alone with his pet cat now.He has a son and is separated from his dad.But what I noticed that there is always association of word blue in his emails, Skype, Facebook, plus, his clothes ,brief, Polo-shirt, t-shirt, pajamas, pants, jogging pants, all in blue. I wonder why he likes but. I never dare to ask him why , but all I know is , he is happy to be alone.In fact, he changed his mind from being marriageable to non-marriageable. That made me sick when he told me that he changed his mind to remain a non-marrying type.I think those who like to live alone pretend to be happy when actually not happy. Man is a social being and he needs someone to talk to. Having gadgets and other things never equal the happiness felt when there is human to be along with, to be happy with and to share some thoughts, problems and heartaches.

      All I can say is, I can never live alone. I will be lonely of alone living in a house. I need someone to be with. It is not enough to just watch TV and do on line activities, so weird, but I cannot blame those whose preference is to live alone. They are loners and I believe they are cowards to face challenges of life just like my foreigner partner.

      • If an individual chooses to be alone even though they may have opportunities to have people in their life then surely they are a happy lo9t. To each their own. We cannot judge anyone and call them cowards.

    • Living alone is an art This is the real meaning of life. Living alone is a challenge. One who overcomes it can take up any kind of challenge and achieve it with a great ease and comfort
      Yes, I agree with you that there are many who are living alone and are happy. Living alone is not a sin. If we say that man is a social animal and he needs some company in life it does not mean that he should be in the company of somebody who will be hammering around him and picks up quarrel with him It is better not to have such company
      In general, most of the people will have a company But, if by chance if one had to live alone he should equip himself to face the situation There are many things available nowadays. We can make a life quite meaningful living alone
      One can do yoga, one can visit ground and watch the games, one can spend time watching T.V. Meditation is another way of spending time which gives good opportunity to realize the things in life Attending foreign languages class is another way of spending time nicely There we will have different types of people we can interact with. Spending time with like-minded people on Fb and other social media sites is also a good way of spending time lonely. There are many ways. One need not worry if one has to live alone

      • Not many are blessed with company that is compatible or shares interests. In today’s world as you have pointed out there is so much one can keep happily occupied with .

    • There are people who exhibit this ego openly and this is very bad. They can not control their ego. The only thing they know is to show their superiority
      But, what is the reason for this temperament? A thing to be examined. The reason may be due to internal problem

      Some people remain cool They maintain a balanced posture irrespective of the nature of the position they are involved in. They always succeed and win over their enemies even.

      Making enemies deliberately means the person is suffering from some psychological problem He should contact a doctor at the early stage itself

      • The problem is that the person making the enemy doesn’t see himself as wrong. Doesn’t see any mistake. It is not a person who realises; ‘why am I acting like this?’ He doesn’t even analyse his actions.

    • The reasoning or rationale for why a person would intentionally set out to make enemies eludes me. Can’t follow the “logic” at all. But for the record, even though we all know this, I’d like to state that some people have deadly enemies and they did nothing to bring on the HATE! They were not even trying! They HAVE enemies. They did not MAKE the enemies! And these enemies are deadly! That means these people’s lives are in peril just because …

      Just sayin’.
