    Agreed, people on here should be supportive and have useful information or they should go away. I normally do not participate in these boards much anymore because there are too many trolls. Which is really too bad.

    It's why I don't post anymore. When I was really motivated, I was getting tons of praise. A lot happened in my life in 2012, 2013 was a transition year, and I'm finally starting to get my head turned around. I gained 10lbs, but then I've maintained. I don't talk about my struggles because when I did, I got blasted.

    I don't even read the forum (that much) anymore. A place that used to be great for motivation, inspiration and tips is now a place for haters and for some who only want to make others feel bad.

    I think there are people who use this who have been through enough of that.

    I know that I am walking into the room "randomly" but this post caught my eye.

    There are a whole bunch of really positive groups here who are super supportive. Some of the people in these groups don't even go the "general forum" and only post in their group. There they get excellent support depending on the group.

    I write this from a very positive and hopefully helpful viewpoint. :flowerforyou:

    I suggested that earlier and got this response
    so basically what you are saying that it's perfectly acceptable to be mean, if you are polite and friendly, pi$$ off, you're not the sort of person who should participate on mfp forums?

    man oh man, It can't be easy being you.

    Which I never said that polite, friendly people should pi$$ off...so be warned - the "polite" ones might tell you the same.

    Are you currently providing direct service to people dealing with mental health issues?

    Am I to imply that you feel my skills will be inadequate? Because you disagree with me in a forum? ROFL

    It was a question.

    See? Now that is hilarious. A question. An assumption. A clarification.

    But also, see how that works--I've had people criticizing me for pages and pages now and I was on the defensive. Now imagine that I was a poster who came here with a problem and had been subject to nastiness and gifs for pages and pages. See how that kind of nonsense isn't necessary and blocks communication?

    You can't play victim, when in this thread....
    Sorry. As much as you'd like to make it so, this thread isn't about you. Feel free to keep playing the victim, though. :wink:
    You're assuming that anyone who complains, whines, and flounces does not make a difference in his/her own life.

    I assume that, whining and complaining are immature, self serving and playing victim instead of taking action.
    *not speaking about venting, to the public or friends.
    However, it's human nature to complain about bad treatment rather than to praise good treatment. How many times do you go to a store and walk up to the customer service counter to praise the service you get? By contrast, how many times do you complain about service?

    All the time, I have called companies and/or asked for supervisors to compliment service that went over and beyond. When eating out I will tip huge and tell a supervisor how pleasant my server was. Bad service... I let money talk...lower tip and/or not spending my money there again. Other people here have said the same thing, you choose to ignore those posts and only concentrate on the negative. It must be very exhausting being you.

    All my MFP friends are supportive & friendly. I ask for their help if I need it, not the forums. I have never had any problems with the forums either, but that said, I gained weight because I gave up smoking, and replaced it with eating & drinking. I have nobody to blame but me!

    If you think really hard, I'm sure you can make eating and drinking more the fault of the forum. :laugh: Seriously, congrats on giving up the smokes. I did 2.5 years ago and don't regret it for a minute. :drinker:

    As an outsider reading through this thread i have a different take on things. What i see is you criticizing others for pages and pages on the very thing that you are guilty of. You read something into a question that simply wasn't there and chose to reply with a snarky remark. With a comment like that it seems obvious that you were the one intent on completely shutting down the lines of communication. Then you tried to blame it on other people instead of taking responsibility for it.

    Alright time to bust out the mean and snarky, my thoughts on the ignore user function:

    And I know, I advise people to use it, and I know in some cases it is 100% necessary, but the vast majority of the time I see it being used it is in the above context. Although my favorite was one particular user who couldn't read most of the thread because they had practically EVERYONE that responded to them on ignore.

    As an outsider reading through this thread i have a different take on things. What i see is you criticizing others for pages and pages on the very thing that you are guilty of. You read something into a question that simply wasn't there and chose to reply with a snarky remark. With a comment like that it seems obvious that you were the one intent on completely shutting down the lines of communication. Then you tried to blame it on other people instead of taking responsibility for it.

    Thank you for your opinion. It has been duly noted. Now, please show me where I've called a name, posted a passive-aggressive gif, or celebrated someone deactivating an account, because those are the major criticisms I have made. Ever since DavPaul stalked off (and has now returned for one attempt at a hit) there have been those attempting to make this thread about me to derail it. Oddly, this thread is not about me, but about the bad behavior of posters on these forums. Judging by the number of people in this thread who have basically written off the general forums, I think it's a well-deserved criticism.

    edit: because I don't want to derail from the current subtopic, which is the inability of some to see in themselves the very behavior they decry so loudly in others.

    And I know, I advise people to use it, and I know in some cases it is 100% necessary, but the vast majority of the time I see it being used it is in the above context. Although my favorite was one particular user who couldn't read most of the thread because they had practically EVERYONE that responded to them on ignore.

    Sometimes it works better that way!

    And I know, I advise people to use it, and I know in some cases it is 100% necessary, but the vast majority of the time I see it being used it is in the above context. Although my favorite was one particular user who couldn't read most of the thread because they had practically EVERYONE that responded to them on ignore.

    I think I remember that thread.

    It's better to be straight with people and tell it how it is than sugar coat things and make excuses but some people don't like it

    As an outsider reading through this thread i have a different take on things. What i see is you criticizing others for pages and pages on the very thing that you are guilty of. You read something into a question that simply wasn't there and chose to reply with a snarky remark. With a comment like that it seems obvious that you were the one intent on completely shutting down the lines of communication. Then you tried to blame it on other people instead of taking responsibility for it.

    Thank you for your opinion. It has been duly noted. Now, please show me where I've called a name, posted a passive-aggressive gif, or celebrated someone deactivating an account, because those are the major criticisms I have made. Ever since DavPaul stalked off (and has now returned for one attempt at a hit) there have been those attempting to make this thread about me to derail it. Oddly, this thread is not about me, but about the bad behavior of posters on these forums. Judging by the number of people in this thread who have basically written off the general forums, I think it's a well-deserved criticism.

    weird. here i sit, minding my own business, and you call me out by name again. and now i'm stalking off and returning for attempts at hits in addition to playing the victim. seems legit. never mind the fact that i posted and responded in this thread before you got here, after you left, before you woke this morning.......yes. it's really all about you.

    do you find it ironic that in the very same paragraph where you pat yourself on the back for all the things you don't do, you bring up my name and assign all of your special character traits to me?

    what's your Dark Triad Score? i'm betting the narcissism score is really high. i'm more a machiavelli myself.

    I actually went back to look because I didn't think this was YOUR thread. From your first post though, you have made this about what you want. If you are so disgusted with the forums, perhaps a group or just your friend's list is a better fit for you. We don't all fit in everywhere in our lives. Surely you know this? It might be the right time to explore your reasons for being on the forums. I wish you good luck in finding your niche. :drinker:

    I gave you my opinion on something that you said to another member here who is not DavPul, so I don't know why you are bringing his name up. again.

    If numbers don't lie, then I am assuming the criticism of your behavior from many here is well founded as well?

    I have directly quoted you a few times, stated my opinion.... and you choose to ignore it, that is fine...maybe you prefer not to have your own statements used against you *shrug*. Then you find something to pick apart and try to place fault in everybody but yourself. To be BLUNT....You do not practice what you preach, you also do not come off as a very nice person or as someone who takes responsibility for their own life and actions. The true definition of a bully is someone who belittles others to boost their own sense of self. You hide behind passive aggression, this is one of the most destructive kinds of aggression. We all see it why as a psych major can you not?

    It was just to give a reference point in the thread. Why do you care if you're not DavPaul?

    I think at this point you may need to choose what you are. Victim? Antagonist? Troll? Past moderator? You've called by action and with intent people back to this thread to do nothing but berate them. Move on, period.

    Wait, let me get this straight . . . you're criticizing me for posting my opinion about what I'd like to see on the forums in a thread that is about behavior on the forums? How naughty of me! I guess I should just go along to get along? But wait, no . . . sarcasm and "being blunt and direct" is the better approach. But no . . . if I'm blunt and direct, I'm a hypocrite.

    Will you people make up your minds already? LOL

    So no. You can give me the bum's rush all you want, but I'm holding onto the sides of the door till my fingernails bleed. I'll happily hold the door for you, though, if you decide to go.

    I gave you my opinion on something that you said to another member here who is not DavPaul, so I don't know why you are bringing his name up. again.

    It was just to give a reference point in the thread. Why do you care if you're not DavPaul?

    why wouldn't i question that? you made a statement and threw his name out and he had nothing to do with what we were discussing. I found it to be very odd.

    it is beginning to seem like borderline obsession.

    Most care because the "Mean" people prefer truth above all else. Calling someone out, that removed themselves from the conversation is immature and inappropriate. Your comment implied insult to him where none was warranted.

    You are making this about You...You are the one making rude remarks....You are the one defending poor behavior.

    If you want to be a b!tch or mean to insult....just say it. Own your actions and behavior.

    For any reading...I do mean insult here, behavior like this needs to be called to task. If holding someone responsible for their poor behavior is mean. Then yes this is MEAN and that is how it was meant.

    I actually went back to look because I didn't think this was YOUR thread. From your first post though, you have made this about what you want. If you are so disgusted with the forums, perhaps a group or just your friend's list is a better fit for you. We don't all fit in everywhere in our lives. Surely you know this? It might be the right time to explore your reasons for being on the forums. I wish you good luck in finding your niche. :drinker:

    Wait, let me get this straight . . . you're criticizing me for posting my opinion about what I'd like to see on the forums in a thread that is about behavior on the forums? How naughty of me! I guess I should just go along to get along? But wait, no . . . sarcasm and "being blunt and direct" is the better approach. But no . . . if I'm blunt and direct, I'm a hypocrite.

    So no. You can give me the bum's rush all you want, but I'm holding onto the sides of the door till my fingernails bleed. I'll happily hold the door for you, though, if you decide to go.

    I was responding to your post about this thread 'not being all about you'. I never criticized you for posting (that's what this forum is for), I simply stated that you are making this about what you want and going out of your way to criticize many people. You know what you are doing here. So does everyone else on this thread. It's your right to do it. Just don't get your feeling hurt when other posters don't feel the need to fall in line with you.

    There is room for everyone in the forums and on this site. I enjoy my time here, as I enjoy interacting with my friends and participating in groups. I certainly don't have any desire for you to leave. That's your choice. You're the only one seeing it as "holding onto the sides of the door till my fingernails bleed".

    Sadly the internet represents/brought about the downfall of civility in society, especially in the US, in general. That said i've seen far worse forums out there. You should see the forums that handle hobbies and sports or worse the ones for video games. You go on the ones for Call of duty and such and there'll be 35 year olds acting like 10 year olds. It's against human nature to take advice even when it's good for you, none of us like to hear that we're doing things wrong but it's how we learn and grow. That said i think the MFP could do with more bannings of people promoting unhealthy lifestyles and products. I'd be up for a 1 warning then a ban system for folks who promote unhealthy advice repeatedly.

    I cut my forum teeth on video game forums.

    MFP pales in terms of vulgarity, rowdiness, and rudeness. Why no one has told me how they spent last night with my mom even once.
