I respect you & your channel. I agree with you most of the time. I remember one time I disagreed with you & commented that. I can't remember now what the content was. What I do remember is you were so kind with the response back to me. I appreciated that & my respect for you grew!
Unfornately cyber bulling is part of what is happening to our society. It's a part of the many issues that are currently happening in our society. This does not make it ok by any means! What I don't understand is why utube allows this to happen to the creators on their channels. Thank you for this video & informing your viewers of what is going on. Sending love & good vibes to you & Sadie.😊💝
U Tube makes MONEY EITHER WAY!
#promise
Bullying should NOT be allowed on RUclips or any social media Platform. This needs to cease!
Or any place. I have been fighting bullies all my life.
Or anywhere on this planet, for that matter.
@@markparr7224 that truly goes unsaid. Bullying in any shape or form is unacceptable.
@@MsLisa551 Unless you are an Xtian or RepubliKKKan....
I've put some thought into having a channel as I travel across country. And use my platform to raise awareness on another topic. But I really don't know if I could handle these bullies. And I'm pretty tough. Lol
But damn they go for the juggler. Awful!!
Love your videos and have watched you for years. I've noticed those that attack you are mosty very immature toxic men. They hate that you're a strong woman, and if you block them, they blow a circuit. It's like how dare you, protect yourself and stop their toxicity from being on your channel. One in particular, is obsessed over the fact, that you choose to be by yourself, and are ok with it. Keep being you and doing your thing.

Horrific!!!!
#promise
Thanks for supporting Pure Living. Bullys everywhere need to be severely punished.
That couple's video actually popped up in my feed yesterday or the day before. Unbelievable & shocking how much they've gone through. Thanks for sharing their message with your own personal experiences.
I remember when the channel, Fathering Autism was reported to children protective services. They actually filmed the social worker coming to their house & addressed what happened in their video. I felt soooooo bad for them. They really emphasized how over worked social workers are & yet a social worker had to come to their house because of a false report.
So sorry you've gone through so much.
My promise to you - I will report it every time I see it & if any of those channels pop up in my feed, I'll be glad to hit "do not recommend channel" #Promise
who are they? I follow a lot of couples on youtube, I hope they are ok!
To those of you that are mystified as to WHY people do $hit like this, it's simple.
PURE AND SIMPLY JEALOUSY !!!
I think it goes far, far deeper than that.
Exactly
You Tube is also responsible for allowing this on their platform. Some of tehse cyberstalkers are paid to harass a creator, especiall if that creator is expericing what is called "gangstalking"
Yes you are allowed to boycott RUclips..
I really don’t understand how someone has time and energy to do that. Sad for them.
A lot of people don't work, have independent income, etc. and have a lot of time to do this $hit. There are SO many channels "against" a more successful RUclipsr ... Some people have nothing else in their lives but hate and resentment. They're evil.
They are paid well or given the option to not pay federal income tax regarding their day job (for example). People are addicted to their I-Phones and when it empowers them to murder via harassment and various techniques, it fuels the addiction and they often engage in Class C and D Felony crimes.
Most likely they are adults sitting in their parent's basements without a jobs. They are miserable and want everyone to be miserable with them. "Misery loves company".
Hatemongers. Call them what they are.
I do Believe there are Patriot haters that have too much money that pay people to do things such as this and much more.
I was bullied in my former career. It was a gang of very nasty women who were jealous of my position in the organization. They made up shit about me and got me fired. The union wanted to get rid of the older workers so they didn’t defend me, even though they admitted it was a put up job. Suffice to say I don’t support unions anymore. I was devastated financially. I am 71 and still working. I know all about bullying and so do you Carolyn. Maybe there is something better up the road for us? I protect myself now. I don’t put up with toxic people. I believe half the population in the US is mentally disturbed. Watch your back.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with lots of experience in various areas. I have thought about sharing information on RUclips but for this reason I don't think I ever would. I stopped teaching at a college as an assistant professor online once because I had a bully the last semester and was really too busy anyway and thought, "I don't get paid enough for this bs." Lol Thanks for sharing how ridiculous some people are.
Same occupation here. The liability is too huge.
@@stephaniewillson9383 I've been a counselor for over thirty years and have encountered a few who were like that but there is no real substance or character to them. It's sad how people you try to help can be that way.
Honestly it's why I don't post anything.
I do carpentry and tile. Would love to do videos on how to or what I tried.
But I have a very unhealthy neighbor who does some of the stuff those folks have experienced and if I posted online I can only imagine what would happen.
You nailed it when you talked about their perception of power! It's like they treat the online community like a video game, plundering and pillaging our "villages," and celebrating the takedowns! Boredom and jealousy drives these bottomfeeders, too. For over 3 years, I've marveled at your strength! #promise
Surviving, healing, then thriving after this hate-filled misogynistic trauma is tough. You are thoughtful, intelligent, articulate, and inspiring to so many of us.
Well said. (◍•ᴗ•◍)✧*。
I worked with the public for nine years long ago and have never looked at people the same since. People are sick. And dangerous.
oh... just a tad !
People need to learn to let people be who they are without criticism or judgement!
I shared your story this morning. Creators are stronger together
Thank you so much Angel. I hope it helps. I wish you the best. What they did to you is disgusting. And if I may offer one piece of advice: Stop watching/looking at what the haters are saying about you. They are NOBODY. They're tiny little losers who have nothing good in their lives so they aim their hatred at you because you're open, authentic and successful; things they could never be.
. YOU are the most interesting thing about them. That's why they do it. I know it's hard, but trust me, nothing they say matters to the people who matter.
I hope that helps.
You know the weird thing, I sew and sell upcycled clothing on Etsy and the moment a customer says, "I'm your number one customer or I'm going to be your number one customer" I know they are going to be a jerk and I usually end up blocking them. Maybe "number one fan" is code for number one jerk.
A common feature of certain personality disorders is called "splitting" whereby the person either completely idolizes or demonizes another person. So yes, if they express inordinately strong feelings toward you, even if those feelings are positive, consider it a warning.
This is horrifying! I'm frightened for all content creators and viewers. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Edmund Burke
I was bullied relentlessly in a new school after drawing the romantic attention of the ex boyfriend of an older girl. She was powerful enough (and feared enough) to rally a group against me. I was physically attacked and terrorized. I'm so sorry that you have dealt with this inexcusable behavior.
Very sorry this happened to you. Hope you have gotten support. Jealous ppl are dangerous.
Same thing happened to me in junior high and high school. The reason, the boy she liked was paying attention to me.
10 years ago I was cyber bullied when trying to sell some of my Mom's musical equipment on Craig's List after she passed away. She was a Popular Singer, Guitar Player, Recording Artist in the 50's and 60's, 'The Mary Kaye Trio' This one guy responded with the most vile, disgusting comments over, over and over again, that he posted on line about my dear mother. I was traumatized for weeks. I had to get my brother involved who searched and located the address of this 'Evil Slimy Troll" and my brother had to threaten him to get him to stop. And needless to stay I had to pull the ad out of shock and fear of more vileness from someone else.
I remember them! Not well, I admit, but it has been a few years, & I was pretty young then. I’m so sorry you had to deal with that. I hope it gives you a little smile to know that someone remembers The Mary Kay Trio.
While we may not agree politically, as a fellow RVr and RV sales rep, I find a lot of your content to be helpful. And I have imparted some of your knowledge to my customers.
This is not surprising that these "new to our society" issues with these "new to our society" platforms. We are learning as a society how to behave in virtual society.
Thank you for leading the way along with Jessy & Allisa! So proud to be watching y'all!
I have so much empathy for youtubers who have to deal with the bullying. I have seen some of my favorite youtubers give up their channels because if it. One of my favorite people on youtube committed suicide in 2021 and bullying was a huge part of that. It should be a criminal offence. There is a guy with a channel in Canada who loves to pick on you specifically and I happened to see a couple of videos. I wanted to lash out with comments, but chose not to because I knew that would add to the crazy. OMG Carolyn, my heart hurts for you. I am glad you are addressing this. Brave and neccessary. Thank you, and block away!!
Thank you for addressing this and sharing your story. I was unaware it was this bad. I believe it. As a non-RUclipsr/Creator I have had my share of adult bullying, scary situations. Mental illness. Jealousy. If it happens to everyday non-people it definitely happens to others as well, only much worse, unfortunately.
Right here with you, Carolyn!! There's a huge difference between feeding internet "trolls" and Exposing Criminal Harassment. It may be a little less rabid with some light shone on it. I'm sorry you're going through this so hard, but I'm proud of you for refusing to stand for it as much as you are able. 👏❤️
Wow, Carolyn... I hadn't really ever thought about how much crap a creator had to put up with, but it makes sense that being the person in the videos would bring the Nuts out of the woodwork. It can be hard just being a viewer. Seriously. I usually don't even comment on videos from the creators I really like anymore because of the ridiculous 'replies' I've gotten for just thanking someone for their hard work or making a point about something. Anything. I can't tell you how many times I've replied to the reply with something like 'HOW ON EARTH did you get THAT from what I said?!' lol I am really sorry that you've had to put up with all of that crazy BS. I have never watched any video from one of your detractors, but I #PROMISE I never will. I wish you Peace and Friendly interactions.
I replied to something a few times and the hateful and very weird comments about my reply had me deciding to never reply except here. I feel Carolyn is a powerful and thoughtful woman who scares some people because she speaks her mind.
I have turned off email notifications [of replies to my posts] for that reason. I'm still able to see when the creator responds, which is all I care about anyway.
You are such a great communicator. And you explain the problem so well and simply. The hate and delusion has to be reduced and stopped. You gave so many great tips. #promise ❤️❤️❤️
As a YT supporter, I find it to be my obligation to not support channels or others that participate in such bullying. By watching bullies, we are supporting such horrible trolls.
Engagement fuels their behavior. I refuse to support those that oppress others.
Stay strong. Thanks for bringing up the subject.
Exactly. Thank you so much for your support against bullying
Carolyn, thank you for sharing this! I had no idea people were so mentally ill to go this far. How shocking. I'm sorry they went as far as to try to harm you when your Capone died. I admired the way you took care of him and he was very happy in your rv life explorations. I watched a bit of their video. How shocking that people have nothing better to do than obsess & destroy them. They're just evil! As an older woman, I'm dismayed that our world has these bullies and my grandchildren are growing up with this. You are so right, they are narcissistic sociopaths. Take care, I appreciate you❤️
Never blame the victim in bullying situations.
I watched these folks for years and had wondered what happened. No one should be calling child protective services and stalking your property... This is really sick. I wanted to thank you for speaking up...sorry it's been happening to you as well. There needs to be something done about this. Again thank you.
Blessings be ...
Hi Carolyn, I'm so sorry you've had to deal with all of this. I must be quite naive because I'm truly shocked! I've been thinking about doing a channel too because I've recently hit the road in New Zealand with my dog, but now I'm not so sure. Thank you so much for continuing through this hideousness because you are encouraging and supportive to women like me on the road. Take care.
I am so sorry about the loss of your beloved dogs, Capone and Huck. My heart went out to you when you lost these special little ones.. I know what a great doggy mom you are and that must’ve been very hurtful. Remember, hurt people hurt people. Keep on living your life and being who you are. You are an inspiration to me.
Thank you Carolyn for addressing this disturbing subject in your usual straight forward fashion. Stay strong knowing there are those NOT #1 fans out here supporting and appreciating you sharing your life experience.
Thank you so much for your encouragement and support.
Hello from Nova Scotia Canada! It’s January 17 at 6:15pm and I just finished watching your video on bullying. At the end you said it takes about 1000ish positive comments to erase a negative one so I thought I would send some Canadian positivity your way! I am also a 55 year old single woman with a dog and I have been watching your videos for a long time. I think you are an amazing, intelligent, brave woman and I think the way you’re living your life is fabulous. I hope this one comment can go into the positive bank towards the completely unnecessary negative comments you have to endure. I truly think the only way the bullying will stop is if people have to give all of their personal information before the say one word online.
I am so sorry you bring so much joy into my life and others. Mental people are very hard to deal with to the point of danger. I just want you to know you’re an awesome person. And that is a problem with the cyber bullying. I will keep you guys in prayer. I am so sorry what the people went through. Thank you so much on giving us power to help you. I found those little dots and I pushed it and I saw the words report. That gave us a tool or we can use to defend you or anybody out there. I’m from Texas, so some people don’t understand why we carry guns and that we have permits to have them on us but until the world changes, we have to learn to take the steps to protect ourselves.
Maybe it's hard for you to deal with because of lack of education on mental illness. Yes...there are no open wounds or physical attributes to see. You also are generalizing. It's like a type of Bullying of words towards certain groups of people....no single person is perfect....not even yourself. Hate comes in different forms and just because one person is a bully having Mental illness doesn't mean all are like that. Yes, mean people exist and she experienced that from hateful people . Hopefully she got a restful sleep that night .
Thanks Carolyn for another great video and bringing attention on a horribly negative issue. Diane's Tarot handled this beautifully. She warned everyone saying, "Any negative comments or bullying would be automatically reported to RUclips." Their channel would then be closed per RUclips community rules. She gave not an inch. Also, this won't solve the full spectrum of horrible things people are doing. Because of this kind of crap I am reluctant to share my gifts on youtube and that is just sad. Thanks again you are inspiration.
Part of the reason I never started a channel. I thought you were pretty brave. I'm on the road alone too and safety is my first priority. There are some seriously messed up people out here that need to find a life. Stay safe! Stay real. :)
Wow!! I had no clue! That’s horrible!! What an eye opener!! Almost unbelievable!! I also respect you and your channel. You have brought joy into my life! I love being able to travel “with” you! I never dreamed there was this dark side to doing it! Thank you for your hard work and for enlightening us in so many ways. We must all work together to stop the bullying!!!
In 1970 I was 9 years old and was being bullied by a 15 year old neighbour. One winters morning while waiting for the school bus he started verbally abusing me and others. I ran home and told my father. My father came to the bus stop grabbed the boy by his collar, and proceeded to shove snow in his face. By now the school bus had arrived and everyone on it witnessed this as well as the boys mother. My father told the boy, if you ever bully my daughter or anyone else I will come after you. That boy apologized to me and the other kids. Not only did he make friends with us he also began helping my father do yard work. One less bully teenager turning into an adult bully. If a father did that today he would be charged with assault.
I had two twins bullying me when I was trying to learn to ice skate…they pushed me down…then I fell backwards on one of them and they broke their leg. No more bullying after that. :-)
Thank you Carolyn, I was cyber bullied and got death threats for a YEAR because of one paranoid, insecure narcissist imagining I rejected them. Fight back, that is the only way to end it. They eventually show their true colors to their Flying Monkeys but it can really mess with your life in a very negative way, even cause suicides. It's no joking matter. If you see anyone cyber bullying anyone, ask all the right questions and do the right thing. Some people are just so unhappy the only thing that makes them happier is to take down everyone else.
Thank you for being who you are. You've been an inspiration to me for years. I'm so sorry you're having a hard time with trolls. Sounds really awful. We love you out here! Love, Joan Rivard
I have been watching your channel for years. You give the absolute best information about van life. As an a older solo female camper, I find your videos very helpful. It's sad that there are MI people that use you as their way of feeling a purpose in life.
I find this particular video very insightful. I was a behavioral health counselor in the military for many years. This makes me extremely cautious when interacting with others in any manner. I agree, we should not have to live this way. Holding others accountable can be exhausting, and I applaud you for trying to get others to understand the damage negativity can bring.
I understand. I’ve got a mentally sick fan who said I was his idol, now stalking and threatening me. RUclips creators take a lot. You are strong. So am I. It still stings when we get slammed. We create free content. Crazy sick people out there.
You both are strong Lee and Carolyn. I love to watch both of you talk about all your travels and van life etc.. I just recently became subscribed to Lees channel. I will pray for both of you. They don't like strong women. But for all of us who depend on your advice and being uplifted by you both, please don't quit!! We need positivity and beauty in our lives. These bullies are evil.
The vanlife community on youtube lost a beautiful creator. She lost her battle with mental health and was relentlessly bullied by a dude on youtube for a year before that happened. She was battling hate from his viewers on her channel, her friends still speak about her with such love, it's so tragic. His bullying was evil and she was already battling so hard. #speakupforlee
I knew of Lee’s struggles well. She didn’t experience depression until after her and Max started their RUclips. I think her youth worked against her in someways. Carolyn has been through a lot and has learned life’s hacks to survive and thrive.
I was thinking of lea all through this video. She was such a sweet spirit and loved and was loved by many. I was sick over it for months.
The internet is so lacking in regulations at a dangerous level for creators and viewers. We subject ourselves as viewers to so much misinformation and propaganda against people and organizations. It is a crime and needs to be corrected. There is so much Good on the internet it just needs some sort of regulation.
God Bless Carolyn for having the strength and wisdom to continue sharing on her channel. Thank you Carolyn.
Yes that man on RUclips absolutely caused her death.
who was this? sorry, l follow a dozen or so vanlife youtubes and don't recognize this.
@DesignGeek Tips Max and Lee was her first channel, after they broke up she started Life with Lee. Not sure if you follow Eamon and Bec, they talk about her all the time. She was also good friends with Vanwives. Edit: #speakupforlee will bring her up, her friends started a campaign after she passed away.
I totally respect you for continuing to be a creator despite all the bullying. I rarely even comment on anything because of the bullying.
If youtube is so into censoring then why don't they censor this type of thing. They simply are not a honorable institution/company!!!
One of the best videos I've ever seen on RUclips. Thanks so much for bringing this to the surface. Would love to see followups. 🙏🏼
As a recipient of extreme bullying - it’s a long road to past the C-PTSD episodes. Course I’m a slow one. But I do know talking to people and watching yourself so you don’t become a bully helps.
Oh my gosh, Carolyn. I'd no idea how bad this has been! Thanks for elaborating, and for expanding on this topic in conjunction with Pure Living For Life. Educating the unaware is a valuable public service.
You have much support in this endeavor, and much gratitude for it as well. I applaud your courage and perseverance.
I am just one more sending you blessings, hugs and prayers for protection. 🙏🌟💕☮
I had no idea it was that bad, I'm so glad you gave us these tips to stay away from them. Cyber bullying is why many teens commit suicide. It's very sad. I love your videos, never give up!!!❤
#promise
Many work places are full of mean and toxic people. Fight the good fight and keep creating.
Loving the hair Darlin!💐😁💐
I received a recommendation to watch a video which turned into a "I Hate Carolyn" tirade. He has video after video of all the ways we should hate Carolyn. I was so surprised to see that someone would care so much about an American woman rolling around the USA in a RV with a dog that he would spend so much time on this. I then realized he was making money off of the hatred. The best thing to do is not click on his videos.
Pretty sure I know who you are talking about. Hate only harms the hater. I truly believe this. Yes, he's profiting financially, but he's selling his soul.
I agree with you 100%. Thank you for the information on how to report bullying and harassment videos.
I just came across your channel about three weeks ago. So I’m playing catch-up with a lot of your videos. I appreciate you sharing your life. Find it very interesting and fulfilling. I admire your adventure and bravery. Being a 70 year old woman retired truck driver understand the challenges of the road alone., I’m shocked at how our society has become with social media. You’ve had to suffer any of this uncalled for behavior. Internet and social media is a great thing but like anything else you can take a hammer and build a house or you can hurt somebody. It just depends who has the tool in hand. May the angels great spirits follow over you, your spirit never dim. thank you Carolyn for sharing your experiences.
There's a couple I enjoy watching on RUclips called "Squirmy and Grubs" who get all kinds of harrassment on their channel. There are always well-meaning folks who interact with the trolls and stand up for the creators, but I know it's a waste of time on their part. I have often longed to be able to counteract these bullies, and now thanks to you making this particular video, I have learned that I can do something to help!!! Thanks so much for helping me to feel powerful!!
I've often thought about starting a channel on my move across country in Sept and using the platform to support a cause. Though I don't know if I could handle these RUclips BULLIES.
I'm pretty tough,, like Carolyn. But reading day after day insults that are pointed at yourself has to be incredibly hurtful. We are made of flesh and blood. We're human.
I'm also 55 and one thing I've noticed looking back on my life is that it doesn't matter where I worked, what level I was at, or anything else about a job - there was always that one person who was crazy obsessed with me in a very negative way. Just like you say, it's to the point of delusion. I'm not sure if this is something everyone has to deal with or not. I can't imagine the stress of having a group of them targeting you in your personal life. I hope this problem gets resolved for you.
Thank you for sharing. This was eye opening! Love you!
Strange how living our lives our way seems to invalidate and intimidate others 🙄
As a fan that grieved the loss of your furry friends with you I'm shocked that anyone could be so mean. I have lost 2 of my adult sons this year and if anyone said that to me about being better off I would have just sunk even lower. Keep your head up and hopefully the trolls will get theirs in the end. ♡ Kisses to Sadie, she gives me joy in my saddest time.
Wow.. I'm so sorry to hear you lost 2 adult sons... I couldn't imagine it.
I am so sorry.
Exactly!!! Weak men bully strong women. Period
Hello Tracey! "A bulldog can whup a skunk, but some fights just ain't worth it!" That nugget has served as a reminder to me for so many years that there's always some jackleg that will disagree, spout insults, and try to take advantage of well meaning people in every way possible. Filthy people with filthy thoughts abound, especially when one can hide their true life behind a screen in privacy. I'm proud of you for your channel and your content. There are so many that are thankful and have sincere interest in your content and your character. Don't let little people with no integrity cause you to engage, even mentally, and slow your roll. Remember...YOU are magic! Keep up the great work, Tracey! ... Bo
I can tell you exactly what you've done to 'deserve' this bullying - you're a smart, strong and successful woman who isn't afraid to speak her mind. In this messed up world many can't handle that. Keep fighting the good fight. 💪 What a cess pit the internet can be.
THIS! So much this!
This is so sad. We have been watching this also play out with the duke and duchess of Sussex, and people still deny it’s bullying and have labelled them as cry babies. I always have admired “nomads” for being courageous and living their true selves. Why anyone would have a problem with you is beyond me. Keep being an inspiration!
Yes! While I was listening to Carolyn describe some of the various aspects of bullying I couldn't help but think of the Harry & Meghan. I don't know them (obviously) or if everything they've said is true or not, but the mean, nasty comments about them are over the top. And just like with Carolyn, there doesn't seem to be an actual reason people hate them so much. I'm been watching Carolyn's channel for a while now and didn't realize she (and apparently others) have this type of bullying going on. I admire her for hanging in there. I sold my van 6 months ago but still like following some of the full-time RVers, they're like family.
Thank you Carolyn for sharing all of this with us. So disturbing to know about this. I was clueless. And thank you and very important that you instruct us as the viewers about what we can do and should not do to help. What a crazy world we live in. Love your content and you! Take care and sending plenty aloha your way!🌺🌈🙋♀️
If I see a RUclips comment or FaceBook comment that is derogatory, discriminatory, nasty, racist, sexist, ageist or otherwise rude, angry or toxic, I always report it. Takes seconds.
Carolyn, I'm sorry you're going through this. I'm not in an RV community, but it happens everywhere. There are bullies everywhere and you named their behavior. Much love.
Very important and enlightening video! Happy New Year. I saw one of those pathetic people, a kind of vampire who created a channel just to hassle you. That is way beyond normal, so focused and obsessive. Too bad I didn't know the feed trick, but I did report the scurvy character. Thanks for the insight. When you were describing how these bullies are drawn together in their warped realities, and how they use internet just to destroy, couldn't help but think of the Jan. 6th nuts. This year I stole your moto for my Xmas card: heath and kindness throughout the year! Since I can't send you the card here, I pinned it on my fb page.
I use RUclips alone. No facecrap, no Instagram, none of it. I will report it every time I see it. I will make sure I do not reccomend it also. Thanks again, just for sticking with this, no matter what. Cuz you are here today to help me, and boy, do I need it!! ❤❤ Jeannie in Lakeport California
Carolyn Thank-you so much for addressing this! I have a tiny channel and I’m not even monetized yet and I’ve already dealt with this. (on a much smaller scale- of course) I got so tired of people saying: just ignore them, turn the other cheek, Red. and people calling them “trolls” 😡 When someone makes a video about you, to bash you on their channel that is NOT a TROLL it’s a BULLY! And I had people I thought were my friends side with this person and think it’s OK for him to do a video bashing me -it got him watch time and he got monetized! The video he did bashing me is his most viewed live! I had to threaten this bully with a lawsuit to get him and his minions to stop. I am so glad you addressed this! YOU ROCK!
I am sharing this on my community tab Thanks again. 🌹 Red
Red (hugs and prayers)
Thank you for sharing this information…I have learned a lot.✌️
I’m not going to allow a toxic stranger to be in my life! You teach me about boundaries etc thanks for being you Carolyn! The creation of the mass delusion of mob mentality probably makes those sick people feel so powerful!! I watched the pure life video. It’s true bullying is a big problem for everyone. We all need to say no to everyone who is bullying. I don’t know what to do. I don’t comment much and no one has commented on my comments. I did have someone comment on a different channel and pretend to be the creator. Then they wanted me to get a free package ( iPad) it sent me a red flag and I called them scammers. So I deleted their messages. I am glad you are here to let people know!! Thanks Carolyn ❤❤
Some of those emails are absolutely horrifying. I'm glad you fight back when you can.
I like you being you. No one should be treated like this. Shame on them. Disgusting trolls!
What can we say Caroline, you are a BadAss! Being your real and authentic self scares them so much they want to silence you. One of the best things about you is that you step forward and address hard to talk about subjects. Thank You!
Wow , had no idea this sort of things happen, I'm so sorry you've gone thru this, I enjoy your channel so much, it so very sad how messed up some people are, there is a lot of mental illness out there , sad and scary. 😢
I quit watching a guy who put you down years ago. I quit watching him because I started watch you, I could not see the crap he was selling. After so long I subscribed to you. I promise I will never watch his channel again and I promise I will not watch the other channels as well. I will also watch the other video you ask us to watch. Thank you for making this video.
Thank you for talking about this.
The term parasocial relationships needs to be discussed way more often. I think once you can name a thing people in general become more aware of it.
Hi Carolyn. Don't think I've ever commented on your videos before. You and I probably agree more than disagree philosophically. As I was watching this one, my immediate first impulse was to reach out to these dingbats and do what I am quite effective at on other discussion boards...'return the favor'. However, as you've requested, I'll hold my tongue and not engage them, even though I feel strongly that a bully...needs to be bullied in order to end his bullying. In any case, so glad you have a strong will and great outlook on things in general. We will continue to enjoy your videos. Take care, stay strong!
I am so sorry you have to deal with all that drama and craziness. Please stay safe out there and may God bless you with happy and healthy people to surround you. You seem like a real nice lady!
Thanks for a great video !! Love you Carolyn. 🥰🏜️
Thanks for this video....I had no idea of how much you have to put up with to be a creator. You shouldn't have to deal with any of it. Yep there are a lot of crazy people out there. It's awful! This country is in such a mental health crisis.
RUclips should be able to censor comments in their website's program. I was attempting to leave a comment on a channel once and RUclips wouldn't post it.. there was nothing personal or attacking about the msg. I am alarmed that this problem exists. I will try to do what I can to help.
Keep being strong and wise!
Addendum to previous comment a half-hour ago...Oh, yeah...HashTag Promise....I went down the list on the right hand side of your video looking for something to watch. Down the page a ways, I see some guy disparaging you in the title. So I clicked on it to watch...and in the first 30 seconds he was doing a fine job of it. I went to the 3 dots and reported the bullying. I didn't watch any longer than 30 seconds. And checked the spot to tell YT that I don't want to see his videos.
Take care, Carolyn
Well done! Thank you so much 💓
So many people can be so cruel. Like it says If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything! They should just not watch if they don't like someone. 🤗❤️

Bulling is why I left facebook .
And I have been bullied on RUclips.
Heck ,I've been bullied my whole life . At school , work , on the job .
Your number one fans sound like Annie Wilks lol! Btw,I think your hair is beautiful! I miss seeing Capone🥰
Thank you for being strong. Hugs from Aotearoa (New Zealand).
I lost my career through bulling. Our union lawyer was very good but I was broken. Fortunately I had just paid off my house and had enough to survive to retire early. Best I now had time to enjoy my looking after my granddaughter for weeks and weekend adventures! Can't believe she's now a young lass of 11 and off to Intermediate school. No idea the USA equivalent but the 2 years before high school! Stay safe and wishing much happiness for 2023.
Thank you for discussing this topic! I admire your strength! I stand by you! 💜
Thank you so much!
Intimidating someone to the point they don't feel safe (especially traveling alone on the road) is just plain scary and illegal WOW
I just went through harassment issues. I had to file a police report and went to the courthouse in front of a judge to get a harassment injunction and then then serve the harasser. So now if he contacts me in any way a warrant will be issued out against him and he can go to jail for 6 months and 2500.00 fine. i had to deactivate my facebook account, turn off my comments on my channel. It was a complete nightmare! Constant nonstop harassment day and night! He made fake profiles of me, attacked my nonprofit organization.
I tried to do a RUclips channel. Got threats right out of the box. I quit. --I’m grateful that you have the courage to bring us your stories.--Peeps, don’t engage. don’t feed the trolls. Look for the 3 dots. Report. Choose the reason. Let’s do this.
I believe you are attacked because you are 'true', not a friction that people want; what they been brainwashed into thinking you should be.
It's a case of being 'dead right'. That doesn't relieve any of the threat though 💔. It hurts my heart when trolls attack good people.
💔💔 Be yourself ❤️.
Bravo for you. Thank you for the information. Very helpful.
The only people who become angry about one setting boundaries, are those who want to cross them.
Thank you SO much for exposing the depth of this serious problem. It is terrible what is happening.
#promise (I haven't watched the other channels...don't want to give them money, input, attention, nor do I want to waste my time with hate). Thanks for the 3 steps we can take to help, I didn't know about the "not recommended" button.
I think you are impressive and strong woman who knows your strength and kills. The BS that flows from the trolls are now under review by the FBI for cybercrime investigations. I hope the message you receive from your followers are genuinely helpful to support your efforts and your cause. Thank you for sharing your experience and your thoughts on this matter. As well, be well, be safe and be careful.🎉 #Promise.
That’s so good to hear!
Thank you for educating me. I knew that you were harassed.....but not to that extent. I can't get over how you keep your humour. I was watching a youtuber and he said that some of his videos were taken down....(for whatever reason).....and he didn't understand why. His chanel was educational. But....why doesn't RUclips close chanels who cyberbully? I don't get it. The world is upside down! Again, thank you, Caroline, for your courage and all your video content! -Angele
