Saving up and challengeing yourself

Hi Dollies

I'm currently in the dire process of "Saving up on Stardoll"
It's much harder than you'd think, but I really wish to save up for a Luxury Suite , so that I may get an achievement and y'know, more (and bigger) rooms :D

I'm about 4/5 of the way there now..
It's getting reeeeeeally hard not to spend those damn SD's on jewlery and hair and stuff..
And I'm 90% sure, that had the Limited Re-Edition not been SS only, I'd be quite a bit porrer right now..

...

I should get back to studying again, that book on Evolution won't read itself..
...

On another note I'm thinking of challengeing myself  a bit (more).
I'm thinking of doing a month or so, where I dress my doll up as me.
My doll doesn't have the same clothes as me at all, so it'd be fun to see just how much (or little) we have in common.
Well, I do have an alternative style IRL (as others would describe it), but it is far from the same as my dolls.. Special.. Style..
Or maybe it'll turn out to be easy, since it would mostly be "basic" clothes, like pants, shirts and shoes?
Who knows, time will show - If I do decide to do it..

...

STUDY!
...

My doll had a little clash with some waves and lost all her lovely swim-wear..
Luckily some starfish (which are not actully fish, but echinoderms..) were there to help her out..
Btw an SC-only Outfit ;D

The ungratefull kids these days

Hi dollies, I'm afraid that I need to rage a bit.

As you're all well aware I've got a club on Stardoll called LadydiverStyles. It mostly persists of me, making some small, fun competitions with small prizes - Because it's not about the prize but about the creativity and fun side and the challenge.

One of my newest competitions is a competition with the theme "rainbow" where you can make what ever entry you wish, as long as it is rainbow-themed.
As the days has gone by, some users have entered, for which I am glad because I love to see how other people will interpret my competitions and come up with amasing and different ideas :)
One user chose to copy another users idea, exactely.

This is the scenery by the first contestant, Ja-nni, (and therefore the original scenery and idea).


This is the scenery by the copy-cat. Notice that I am in no way attacking her person, but merely expressing my opponion on the act of copying another users' idea. This I find is my right, as it is my club and it is a competition, which I am hosting. If someone else had commented that, I would have accepted it aswell. It is not nice to copy others' ideas.



As I am a very forgiving person, I wrote a comment, that the copy-cat would be welcome to make a new entry, for she would have no chance of winning with an idea, which she had copied from another user.
This is the comment I left her. Should I say it myself, it's a neutral and fair comment.



As of now I would've expected her to reply something like "Oh sorry, I didn't know, I'll try and make a new entry" or "I will keep this entry"

But then today as I logg on to check on how things are going with LD (Ladydiver) as I do almost every day, I find this in my GB.



Offcourse I do my best to reply in a nice way, though I do not at all feel like being nice.
I gave the copy-cat a second chance, and this is the reply I get?

Offcourse I've replied to it, though SD-rules advise us not to reply to harrassing comment. I've only replied, because I still wish for her to understand, that I mean her no harm in any way.
- She is btw still welcome to make a new entry in my club.

The reasons why her name has not been blurred or anything from this post is:

1) It would be easy for any readers to find her anyway, since all this is still available in both my GB and club.
2) I don't have many readers anyway.
3) I'm not angry at her. This is not a hate-blog-post, this is a post of me expressing my oppinion on how ungratefull kids are these days.

Now, I'll get back to studying for my Evolutionary Biology exam.

If you think I should've handled this in some other way, please leave a comment on how you would've handled it in the commentssection of this post.

UPDATE: The comment has now been deleted from my GB. I did not delete it and the copy-cat has not visited me since I replied. Maybe SD has got a new feature, which automaticly deletes any comments, which has been reported?
Yes I did report her, as it is my duty to report anything which breaks the rules of SD.
