1didn't think any of the men were serious
2nd left because he got fed up with argueing in threads
3rd same reason and she only read never replied in threads for fear of being picked on
4th and 5th thinks that some of the threads are rated xxx and they are oppossed to those threads.
Okay they all left recently so there are some who are gone by choice.I won't say I agree with their reasons other than argueing,so petty.
Isn't it a pleasure when someone starts a positive thread and everyone gets along or politley disagrees?It does happen now and then on here.Lately alot of new names and faces.
I still enjoy the threads and think we have great,caring people on here.The threads I don't like I stay out of.If someone is trying to bait me in an arguement,I leave the thread.Can't we all do this?
Its a shame, I know. Some feel they have to stand their ground and state their case..... and I can understand that. But as well as knowing one's capabilities, one has to be aware of one's limitations. If you can hold your own.... fair enough, but then it becomes a battle.
I wouldn't continue a dialogue with someone who either was so rigid they weren't EVER gonna budge (and I don't mean courage of their convictions, that's admirable - I mean stubborness and rigidity - there's a difference) or who was really out of their depth (as in just not bright enough and didn't have the full facts - moreover was happy having a debate happily
without the facts)..... duuhhh, dunno??
So, yes..... I just sever the communication when I really can't warrant further dialogue, I usually have something else more productive (and often, more entertaining) to do, like de-scaling the kettle!!
But people shouldn't feel put off, it is a Fourm for EVERYONE.... equally!!
Good thread!!
