This site is a place for individuals to go and say harmful words about others. From the posts that I have read, the things written have the potential to be very harmful to the individuals being written about. Not only that but the girls who are being talked about have the potential to have their lives at risk if they aren't already. Last names, zipcodes, and phone numbers are being posted. I am worried about this site because with information being provided, some creep could track down these girls and cause even more harm. I am also worried about this site because the things being said can cause so many problems. The things being said can put these girls into depression. Not only can this put these girls into depression but the things being said are what causes some suicides as well as break downs that can lead to other violence with one of the worst being school shootings. This site is a place for people to put others down and it has the potential to cause a lot of harm. I know they say that the people being talked about is anonymous because it is used around the world and the last initial and first name are the only things that should be posted. However, I live in a small community. Last names are being posted and even if it is just the last initial it is quite easy to determine who is being talked about because of the fact the area I live in is so small. I hope the girls being talked about are being strong and not letting what is being said get to them but some of the words are quite harsh. This site needs to be taken down before someone gets hurt or hurts others!!!
