Please Welcome a New Active Rain Member - I was just so RUDE to him!

Virginia:  How great of you to feature him... especially after such a negative.  I am sure he felt much better after all the positive attention you sent his way.  :)

Virginia, over the knee you naughty girl, grin. Nice ThemThem to Aniruddha. I'll swing by and welcome him to the Active Rain Family.

Karen - I sure hope so!  He is so nice.

Duane - I sure didn't mean to sound like such a jerk.   Do you ever sleep?

Yes, Virginia is great. She has been helping me out in AR greatly. What I like about AR is not just great blogs and info but also the members who guide, help each other in every manner possible. This make AR a one very cool place.

that is funny the way things work. it is good of you to apolgize, nice post

Virginia - What a classy thing to do. A little good will goes a long way!

Aniruddha - Welcome, and I look forward to your future posts!

VH,

The great thing about A/R is tomorrow is another day..

I agree you did something very classy!

welcome Aniruddha.. 

Virginia - good for you.  I'll have to check Aniruddha out as well - anyone willing to give free website tips has gotta be a good guy!

Virginia, this is so cool to post your mistake and the results. So many new people here that it takes time to figure out all the rules and ettiquete.

Virginia, it is strange how life gives us those twists and turns. You don't need to be too hard on yourself. You just had an initial reaction of getting spammed. I think with dealing with people when we don't know them at first we have to go SLOW. I'm glad Aniruddha is helping you with your website.

What a story! Hi and welcome to active rain Aniruddha! Sorry about the mistake, but we're all glad you're here!

Welcome to the party, don't worry, we are not as mean and cruel as Virginia. Some of us are much worse.

Virginia, Cheer,

Thanks for coming to my blog and put up some comments. I am a newbie too. The thing is that I am not practicing in the US, and of course know nothing about the Real estate agency in the States. Although it sounds similar, but obviously it is on different rules and regulations.

May be  I will learn from you on the differences in the practice beween the countries.

Cheers again. Bye.

Anthony - Thanks, he certainly deserved an apology.

Ani - This is definitately a cool place!

Virginia, how very nice of you to bring this to our attention. :)  You must be the only rude person on AR :D  I, of course, am just lovely, and never, ever, ever do such things (and I was born a scorpio, imagine that).  And I never lie either. :)  Seriously, good for you. It takes a bigger person to apologize, and you've done that.  And now I'll check out his blog.

Welcome, Aniruddha.  I'm a newbie myself. We maybe able to help each other.

NJ - Thanks, especially since it was your post that I was so rude to him in my comment.

You wrote a great post, BTW - Killer Title for Results

l am learning some cool stuff from you!

Scott - Tomorrow is another day!  I guess I woke up nicer today.

Penny - Ani does websites all over, not just U.S.  He is very generous with his advice.

Missy - Thank you.  When I was a Newbie, I didn't know the rules either, and still learn more all the time.

Hi Gary, my initail reaction apparently was to be rude!  :)  Ani has been very gracious...and I need all the help I can get.

Klarque - I am glad he stayed, too.

JL - You should invite him to your Jacked group - where the party is always going on!

Sheik  - We are all hoping to learn about your ways of doing business from you!

Sylvie -  You are barely a Newbie, and anyway, you write like an oldie!  (now, that sounded rude).

Your post about the Table for Sale is hilarious!  Everybody - read Sylvie's post!

Howdy Virginia

You are a very kind lady to do this for Aniruddha.

As some of the other comments have said, tomorrow is another day. I will definitely have to check out his posts.

We all make mistakes. None of us are perfect-NO NOT ONE. The great part about it is you apologized which to me says alot about you. Also, something good came from it and you made a new friend.

Hi Virginia,

Good job. Invite more.

Hi Aniruddha!

Virginia,

We're all entitled to snap when offended. We're all entitled to make mistakes. We're all responsible to apologies when were wrong. How ever few do. You're obviously a very good person.

Newbes need friends, Aniruddha has a good start.

Bill

Virginia:  Stepping up to the plate and realizing what you did is part of making an honest person for yourself.  What a great way to show how sincere you are! 

Being NEW is scary, I was real reluctant to post and comment.  But after countless hours of reading I think I have it done (well at least to get by).

Thank you for you comments and helping me out with the referral last week.

Aniruddha - WELCOME TO AR...

We all make mistakes, but yours was followed by a fantastic apology.  What a great lesson for us all!

Hey Annie Oakley...

Long time no hear???  Did I do something "rude" to you?  I haven't heard form you in a long time, and I miss you!

Glad you caught yourself and made him feel welcome...we were all new and made lots of mistakes...some of us (me) more than most. 

Hope you are well, I'll be in Vegas the end of July.  L

When I double post I usually input the link to the original post.  Is this wrong of me???

Thanks, Bill

Michelle - I lurked around here without making comments for a long time.  You are doing great here!

Honey - Thank you.

Liz - Southern belles like you are never rude!  I have been busy with other stuff - I think I will come over and revive some of your old posts - they are classics.

Patrick - No, I think you are supposed to give credit to where you got the idea with a link to it.  I really am not a rule authority - quite the opposite, actually!  You can put whatever you want in your own post, just not on comments on other people's post.

I jumped all over Ani because he put a link to his post in a comment.  Not even a big deal and it was a good post - I think it was this one.

Virginia, I love it when people acknowledge a mistake. You have made some special friends here on the rain. Going to check out Aniruddha Badola

Virginia - anyone who's trying to make a living selling real estate in Mesquite, NV is ALLOWED a mistake or two.  And there was no insult meant in that statement!

Is it 120 degrees yet?

Mike (formally of Las Vegas) Mullin

Virginia, great job It's not our mistakes that hurt us. It's not knowing we made any. 

You humbled your self and apologized to him. I know he is very grateful for what you di. You showed him how professional you are.

Thanks, Margaret, go read his stuff, he is good!

Michael - No, it was only 114 today.  The heat has caused me to become a rude person.  Every June, I tell my husband that we have to move north somewhere.  Every October, I forget about it.  Need a partner up there?

Hi Vrigina, You do some very nice writing and your local posts are very good. The fact that you took the time to correct yourself ,shows a lot about you as the good person you are and look what it brought you, closer to someone new that will over time help you learn about SEO. What a win win! I love to read things like this and it helps all of grow. Great post!

Hi Aniruddha  --  Welcome to ActiveRain.  I am sure you will enjoy networking here.  Have a great day!!!

Bill, THANK YOU!

Neal, Thanks for the welcome to Ani.
