 Gosh, I didn't see there were still new posts up on this one.
You know, sometimes it's best to best the voice of reason and take the ridicule and low ratings. In the end, it's not about the ratings, but if we have made someone's life better.
If they choose to refuse our advice, they'll have to deal with the consequences.
And I'm pretty sure there are blocks where you can block spammers/trolls.
Anyway, sorry about the wait, my internet was also down for a period, so there you have it.

It's like the bad is good and the good is bad. What's going on? I'm going crazy?! It's like what's bad is good and whats good is bad. Like underage drinking, sex and partying is praised and glorified, while virgins and pure and good moral people are made fun of. It really doesn't make any sense.

Sometimes they ask such rediculously absurd questions that it's hard and I'm one of those "pissed agony aunts" you're talking about. Right now, up to now, I've answered people on this site (and I'm still new) about 13-15 year olds having sex and getting pregnant and "26-29" year olds asking about calling up a guy and having an affair this and that. What do I do? I mean, i try to ignore it, but why don't they ingore my advice then, instead of rate me badly and it's weird because most of my advice is for their own good yet they don't see it at all and tend to hate and stalk me and rate all my things down.

I guess it does get a little "boring" at times, when nothing's going on and everyone's on their feet being nice, but I actually prefer that. I'm glad I have found a way to be sweet but direct or maybe not so nasty next time. Thank you to all your advices again. I wish there was more I could do with this, like choose a best answer.

To be nicer, just think about what you say or post, if it could be construed in a bad way, don't use strong commands.
Unless the situation does demand, a lot of the aunts are pissed, and do have a right to be pissed, on here when some people ask advice for horrible things like "should I cheat, how should I cheat, etc.".
But as for the kids on here who ask about sex, I'd say direct your anger instead to our sexually saturated culture that permeates these kids' moldable minds. And some of them are just honestly asking, going through puberty, curious about certain things.
A lot of people are rude, start flamewars, etc., just because the Internet is so impersonal. The worst that could happen is a permaban, and they think "so what, i'm not banned from the whole internet.
So there's my perspective

 Ignore people on the internet that annoy you. It's the ones in the real world that are in your face... if you can learn to deal with them, you're ahead of the game.
