I joined VisaJourney about a year ago and I am very thankful to VJ because it helped us very much with my visa journey.

The reason I am posting this, it is because I just want to express how I feel about those VJers that all they’ve been doing are making fun, posting replies that irrelevant to the original posts, or giving insensitive comments to the OP or those who replied. I can say that Philippine forum in particular is not as good as before. I am very disappointed because it has been going on like this almost everyday already. I myself, is very discouraged to posts my queries anymore because I know someone will make fun out of it too regardless of the topic. I just wish that this will be stopped. I wish that if someone posts something that will be useful to those who are new in this journey , no one will ruin the discussion.

To those who understand me, thank you but to those who will not agree…well, good luck and God bless. Peace again.

I know what you mean.

You'd be surprised at the number of highly insensitive posts on the other boards. Poor guys and gals are pouring their heart out over a number of personal circumstances (such as administrative processing, major changes in their family, etc.) and yet they get bashed and judged.

It is disappointing, to say the least.

Maybe make it a point to hit the !REPORT button when a post is inappropriate? :reading:

Maybe the mods or Capt will do something about the individual(s)? :clock:

Maybe this isn't a "family based immigration" regional sub-forum; maybe its a pimp-n-ho, lie, insult, be rude forum? :protest:

Maybe there are things I think but do not say because it is not helpful or maybe it is really because Iris forbids me! :crying:
