[JENchuuriki]

Hello smart NB People!

I'm making a magazine article, so it's not that big fuss...
I just want your thoughts/opinions about it, esp. because you all came from diff country.
Also, you may or may not answer the questions below. Thank you.

>What are the ways to discipline oneself in using cellphones or Internet apps, especially in texting/chatting?

>How can texting/chatting be helpful?

>What are its negative effects when used excessively?

>Putting the phone down, simple as that. If one can't do that then theres no real way of helping the person unless by force imo
>Texting can help you send a message to someone for help if you can't talk
>When used excessively it could become hard to be sociable in person with other people because the person has texted too much as a way of talking

1. You need to be more precise than that. I don't understand what you're asking us.

2. Texting/Chatting can be helpful if you're too far away from the person who you wish you talk @ anytime.

3. No negative effects.

 

[Jazzy Stardust]

it can be helpful if youre hiding from a serial killer and cant make a lot of noise. negative effect, you could end up accidently drunk texting someone something very stupid

Honestly speaking I hate chatting I get bored after some time. I believe in direct talks.

1. Never give your number to some stranger on Facebook or any sites till you meet them. They may be cool in chatting and texting but we don't know what they are like outside. I had experienced with a girl to whom I gave my number. She seems to be very cool in chatting and when it came to talks she was emotionally unstable and a torturer.

2. Yeah it can be helpful for communication and to reach for someone's help. But nowadays people just became a prey for this apps specially Whatsapp,hike etc. Good gracious I never use any of them :lol

3. Addiction, becomes unsociable and lazy. When we try to talk while they are on chatting they respond after some time asking "Yes tell me again". It makes them useless and dumb persons

yea, i know it's kinda vague but just tell what exactly is in your mind in disciplining yourself to avoid excessively use of it.
and, uhmm, really you see no negative effects?

If it's an app or to use the internet in my phone I would just download an app that will block me from using Data after 'x' hours. To discipline myself from using my phone would take a lot of time. My smartphone is like my girlfriend #2, we need to see each other every 2 - 3 hours depending how my life is going through. If I'm bored and there's nothing to do, I'm going to use the phone no matter what. Eh it's really hard nowadays not to use your phone too much if you aren't doing nothing in life.

and, uhmm, really you see no negative effects?

I see no negative effects besides if you're talking a lot to randoms and you give too much personal information to them plus trying to meet them in real life without knowing if they are good people or not. They could be serial killers or rapists. If you talk a lot in the internet with people you know then I don't see how you can find a negative effect on that.

>What are the ways to discipline oneself in using cellphones or Internet apps, especially in texting/chatting?

Let your parents confiscate it. :| As a less drastic measure I suggest turn off the notifications in the groups you are part of. Turn off auto downloading of images and videos too. Find another hobby like playing sudoku, read a book, draw something, if you can go out talk a walk etc.

>How can texting/chatting be helpful?

Share info about class assignments or other projects, home work help, sending other userful information/quick messages to each other. My family and colleagues also use what's up etc to send snap shots of necessary documents/pages from a book for reference to each other sometimes.

>What are its negative effects when used excessively?

#You may send something really stupid on a momentary whim that you come to regret later.

# Your socialization with real people becomes less and less and you are sucked in to talking to relative strangers on internet more. Just because you are talking to them too much and sharing more personal stuff to your actual friends and family you believe them to be closer.

First problem is even if they are genuine, if you need actual help they have very limited means to help you. Most can only listen to you.

Second one is they can be real jerks and you will be in trouble because you shared too much with a person you didn't know.​

# You are so involved in replying latest random chat that you are late for school/work/losing sleep- this is the last thing you do before sleep and first thing when you wake up- find your mobile and read messages. And then you realize you are depressed that your virtual friends didn't post thumbs up emotes to the funny dog video you posted . Real trouble. Or you may find that your friends have been gossiping and you are the topic and then you end up making a thread in ND how chat groups are back stabbers...

If you can still see it when you copy paste url it's obviously not been deleted from it's original location.

I don't use tumbler so I don't know. Maybe the image was re blogged and and thus still being used and kept. There should be a way to remove it. If they don't have it- contact them and tell them they suck for not giving you that option. :|
