In more than one Neoboard, I've seen cruel people telling little kids that Santa's not real, just to be mean and make them feel bad. Is this reportable or SOMETHING? This is just heinous. They're being horrible and ruining the magic of Christmas for those who believe what they say, and it just isn't right. What can be done about this?

I *think* it is reportable, I hope it is...

..Heartless scrooges!!

yah, really. I don't think it's reportable, but... It's not something they SHOULD be doing....

.... I'm really at a loss of words today...

I hate people like that! I don't think you could report for it, sadly. Because what they're saying is sorta true because Santa isn't real to them... Santa is in your heart... Where are these topics? I think I'm gonna go comment...(aka ask for trouble)

I'm watching RIGHT NOW as some poor kid is getting bombarded by mean people saying Santa's not real! He's only 10 years old! I'm doing my best to help him out.

*growls* I. Detest. These. People.

if you're gonna confront them though, don't be too mean, it's better to report them and leave a subtle message than incite a flame war that will get you frozen.


(Funny how flame wars get you frozen)

Aww, thats just mean... that would ruin Christmas for people saying things like that!! Thats horrible..... especially since he still brings us presents, and we all know that he actually is real, right? I *heart* santa... anybody who says any different is a scrooge.... i cant stand those neoboard people who say things like that... i say report them! I think TNT would side with us on an issue like that... i guess they arent violating terms, but maybe the mods would send them a message or warning anyway or something... i know im reporting them!

Hey, some people enjoy causing pain to others. They're what we call "bullies."

There are also other words, but most of them will get me banned for life.

Anyway, not much you can do about it. Reporting won't do any good, because it's not something that could potentially endanger a member or his or her account, nor is it harassment, nor is it lying.

If you must talk to the person, just politely ask them why they're doing that. Remember - it's a person's parents' decision to tell them about Santa Claus, not a Neopets member's.

Aww, thats horrible. That isn't nice or right for them to do. I hate it when people insist upon trying to convince people things like Santa isn't real, especially if they are young kids who truly believe, no one should purposely try to make them not believe in Santa.

Of course my parent's haven't ever tried to tell me Santa doesn't exist (I'm 17 by the way) because he does exist , he must exist because of the presents I get every Christmas morning that appear out of nowhere with "from Santa" written on them

Oh my goodness. How cruel people can be. Then they twist things around to make it seem as they are doing the kid a favor. "O ya welz i wuzz juss savin u frum da liing, cuz liiing iznt gud 4 kid to heer an sayin sanna iz reel iz liing ya!!1!!11!!!11!"



Oooh yeah. Sorry, someone lied and said Santa's not real. Let's go out into the streets and kill people! [/sarcasm]

Give
Me
A
Break.

I don't think it's freezable-- if the kid is only 10, he shouldn't be on the neoboards. Don't you have to be 13 to post there? This is a good example of why young children shouldn't have access to the chat.

(Though I do think it's pretty terrible of people to do that to the poor kid)

well unless his folks sent in the form I nwouldnt think he can?

Lots of people lie about their age to gain access to the neoboards.

*whistles*

heh, funny how a man whos been dead a thousand odd years from a country no-one could point out anyway can inspire such emotion in people.

is still wrong mind, let people belive what they will, so long as they dont feel the need to make a meme out of it.
