Topic:
Can someone tell me...
|
|
What is the point of posting a thread that will cause arguments, then getting mad when people don't agree with the original post? The whole "if you don't like the post, don't reply" doesn't work. its called stirring the pot. people who do that are called forum trolls That's a good call,but I'd probably call the pot stirrers more like *Crap stirrers* or adolecent twerps |

I'm all for healthy debates. Though, the people who can't handle debating without making it personal shouldn't be starting those types of topics. Then again, that's asking a bit much. Exactly. They aren't doing anyone any favors by starting up those problem threads. If anything, it's almost like an online form of cancer- the malcontent will spread from member to member until everyone's at everyone else's throats. And the only one who in essence ends up winning is the one who posted the problem thread in the first place. And I admit- I was dumb enough to go the "making it personal" route when replying to some of those inflammatory posts as well, and it's more-than-likely cost me some friendships along the way. But it will often get easy to get caught up in the whirlwind nature of some of those threads, as the negativity of the posters involved is just that strong. I'm also rather strong-willed (as well as stubborn-as-a-rock) person, so listening to another perspective can be difficult for me at times. That can be a serious hindrance when dealing with the flame-bait that are those forum topics. Again- this is where the moderators of this place should keep better tabs on the problem posts and topics. I'm not saying people don't make mistakes. I know I do. When I do, I apologize. Of course people make mistakes when posting online. We aren't machines, after all- we're human and we have failings, including a predilection toward anger and making inflammatory comments. But a great many (including the ones who start these problem posts) have no plans on detente or reconciliation when they make these posts. Their intent is to cause as much mayhem as they can and are unapologetic about doing do. And that's the problem here. Yes, exactly. Some people like to just start arguments for the sake of fighting. It is a problem. Yep singmesweet,I have certainly noticed this many times when I have looked into the forum community and I guess it's because a lot of regulars like to judge & critize others for their opinions because it seems to make them feel superior. |

Not everyone in this forum board is going to agree with what one or more persons say because they'll sure have a difference of opinions to different situations and that's what these forum boards were put up for,good communications with each other.But,it is true that there will always be differences of opinions to certain things said because that's the way we are as humans,we question everything.

It's a preference. You don't have to put anything there. If I'm looking through profiles, the chances of me contacting someone with no profile or with very little written is very low. Again, a preference. Well singmesweet,that is your choice to make,even though if I was any one else,they would probably tell you that,that is a very poor choice to make.But,to each their own ! |

I don't really think it has anything to do with being new. If you're here to meet someone, why not put a little effort into a profile? If you're not, then I guess it's not needed. Well singmesweet,I do in some ways understand with what you are trying to get across here,but when users come here and do profiles,they are only gonna comfortable with puting a certain amount of info out for strangers to read.Not everyone is gonna fully spill their guts on sites like these,especially not until they know the person well enough |

Topic:
CYNICS ABOUND ON HERE ..
|
|
Sometimes its amusing to me to see in open written forum the lack of feeling and expression in writing. On forums people use emoticons to express how they feel as they write. The dual communication at the same time is wonderful but nothing new. Aztecs and native americans, and egyptians all had written phonetic alphabets with pictures to both let the reader understand the communicate and the feeling and the power and the energy involved. I pride myself on having 20,000 posts without a smiley face emoticon. The reason I do not use them is I find for the most part I can get my point across in my writing prose. I'm guessing maybe 70% of the time people understand what I'm saying. And like everything else I find that emoticons are overused and abused frequently on here. We do not have one for cynic. Maybe we should. I even thought of describing expressions and feelings in parentheses during and after written prose on here so people really have no doubt the point I'm trying to get across.(because I'm frustrated with lack of communication). I'm still surprised at how a mild cynic is misrepresented. I use humor in my cynicism to keep it from being and sounding completely negative, pessimistic, and droll. For I don't live my life completely cynical. I'm a very positive person who believes in faith. I just used the cynacism as a defense mechanism coping tool. But I use it well and in context. But I don't "Live it". Its been a good thread judy. It might spin off a few more. But the point us cynics were trying to get across is that not all cynics are morbid manic depressant doom and glooms. I have seen women that are positive to the core with everything in their lives except some past horrible relationships. And then I've heard some of the most cynical banter I've ever heard in my life. And people confuse their comments with pure negativity and anger and bitterness. When in reality- it is "I will believe it when I see it" cynacism. So, maybe I have to explain myself with written feeling or use emoticoms correctly to get my point across. Geeeeeeeeeeeez,that's a Real mouthfull |

I hope you don't mind me saying here,but since I have been around this site Off & On,I have sure noticed that there have been a lot of un-necessary criticisms being thrown towards newbie profiles & others for the way they are or what they believe or like and maybe those regulars here should try to get to know those peoples before making such snide remarks I agree with this to a certain extent...... Glad someone notices the same thing here

Anyone for Coffee
|

Women are suckers for romance and why shouldn't they be. I should know, I am the one who love breakfast in bed, flowers, chocolate kisses etc. Men brought the whole roses thing together, with the white knight. How romantic should a relationship be? I think out for coffee for two is romantic...anyone for a cup with me? Sounds like a very enjoyable idea Caribeean. |
