WHY DOES WW HATE ME?

MooMoo089 · December 2013

Everyone hates my opinions.

Inkdancer · December 2013

Apparently people expect coddling and petting from strangers on the internet. Oh you poor delicate flower, be as rude as you want.

MooMoo089 · December 2013

I WAS BEING HONEST.

I clicked on this thread thinking "WW" stood for "Weight Watchers," and I was very confused.

I'm sorry that you got the ban-hammer on Wedding Wire for being etiquette-correct. You tried, though, so comfort yourself with the idea that you tried.

Some people just freak out the second you disagree with them. It makes me wonder how they get through a single day without locking themselves in the bathroom and crying. The worst for me is when someone takes a slight criticism as a personal attack- like if you say "I don't like that dress" you get "OMG UR JUST JEALOUS AND HATING ON HER BECAUSE SHE'S PRETTY HOW DARE YOU PICK ON HER" because apparently you can't dislike a dress without hating the guts of the person wearing it.

Why does WW hate you?

Because you're polite.

afox007 · December 2013

Because you were the only one on there who wasn't a special snowflake

Emmy1493 · December 2013

Often a time I want to post on there and let them have it, but those speshul snowflakes aren't worth my time. Sorry it happened though!

There are certain pieces of advice that, if you give them, they shriek "WE'RE NOT LIKE YOU LADIES FROM THEKNOT!"

Cash bars being rude is one of them. If you make any statement like, "Your bridesmaids are allowed to have a life/they're not required to throw you a party," that'll set them off, too.

Honestly, it's really hypocritical over there. They go on and on about how tacky other people's weddings are, and make a lot of seriously judgmental statements about other people, and meanwhile they're doing plenty of rude, self-centered crap.

Who are you on WW?

syoun1nj · December 2013

Yeah, they're pretty ridiculous over there. Who are you? I'm just "Stephanie" and I refuse to change my avatar so I'm their worst enemy.

Ashleyz0814 · December 2013

I'm also curious which banned member you are.

phira · December 2013

I'm also Stephanie! My avatar is a cartoon of a parrot tied to a rocket and holding a cleaver.

I got banned from WW for three things:

1) I commented on someone's post about their PPD, and said that I would side-eye them having 20 attendants for their re-do wedding (not to mention the entire day). They told me that I was a rude bitch.

2) I commented on someone's post about how their BM wasn't spending all the money she makes on this bride's wedding. The bride was complaining that the BM refused to drive four hours and put in money for the bachelorette party, but was capable of taking her H out for dinner for his birthday. I told her that how her BM spends her own money is none of her business, and the world doesn't revolve around her. They all told me I was a stupid C-word. (They are not very polite over there at all).

3) I refused to change my avatar. This was the last straw and they all had their panties in such a bunch because I didn't want to put a picture of myself on their website, that they had WW block my account.

It's more drama than it's worth over there. I stick to TK where reasonable people with brains in their heads tend to post.

Wait, you have to put a picture of yourelf on your avatar over there? Or do you just have to set an avatar? I went with the default TK avatar for months and months and it didn't bother anybody.

I don't think you have to put a picture of yourself, but a general avatar. Most of the girls have pictures of themselves as their avatar on WW. Their reasoning for us wanting to change is was so that they could "feel that it was more personalized". Or so that was the reason they gave me. Every time I posted, someone responded "Please change your avatar". When I didn't, the posts got angrier, "You need to change your avatar!"

kgd7357 · December 2013

Wait, so you're saying you could put up any random picture, like a turtle or something, and they would be happy. But the default is not okay? That is so weird. I don't have a TK avatar and no one cares.

ETA: I don't post on WW, but their wedding website designs were nicer than TKs.

thelastdreamer · December 2013

I don't go there because they sound scary.

They aren't scary so much as crude, crass, rude, and stupid.

If they have enough time to get their undies in a twist over someone's internet pixel-box, they should probably get hobbies.

tammym1001 · December 2013

I don't go on WW, but apparently at some point I set up an account with them. I received an email the other day from WW asking me to fill out a survey on why I left WW and haven't been back. It sounds like maybe I should fill it out and tell them what you girls have said here. LOL

That's a bit of a generalization. I'm on both sites and have seen those same qualities on TK as well. I actually prefer WW. To each her own

Well, I can safely say I have never been called the dreaded C word on TK. Can't say that about WW.

ETA: I think the fact that everyone jumped on board with the person who called me that was the most off-putting thing. They were completely okay with ganging up on someone who was offering a voice of reason. If someone one TK called another user that name, their account would be blocked since it's against the TOS.

Yep, and I stand by it. I have never been called the c word by a reg or active poster over here, yet I see it bandied about frequently on WW when someone doesn't validate one of their awful ideas.

And while we may be blunt over here, they tend to just be rude.

BMoreBride6 · December 2013

What the hell is this??? It's an OP in the etiquette board and then everyone agrees that she was like the coolest life ever!

"Just wanted to tell you about my night at FH christmas party, *held at a 5 star hotel*

Had a great night, then we snuck in the pool, FH, and his 3 buddies, they all got naked. (i wasnt naked btw just in a bra and stockings lol ..refused to take them off) Then this random black man comes in and they all talk him into getting in, hesitant at first looking at a hot tub full of white naked men, he finally took his clothes off and joined us and said it was the best time and felt so good.

lmao....my life."

whitjoy · December 2013

I couldn't stand it anymore, had to see this for myself so I went over to WW. OMG...literally, one post was women helping someone figure out the best way to have a JOP wedding to cash in on some insurance perk, then keep it a secret for 6 months before the "real" wedding.
