    I think what you should really ask for is the ability to choose what forums you see over to the right. Just because you can't appreciate a little humor to get you through the day doesn't mean everyone is like that. I wish we could get rid of people that don't know how to use the search but I don't ask them to be banned!

    I would be okay with it if those people were banned.

    There is no avoiding seeing it on the community feed. The majority of people post on there so I need to weed through them until I can find a subject that actually interests and motivates me.

    Here's a crazy idea…if you know the subject you're interested in you could do a search for it. Crazy I know…

    Also, yes this is a weight loss site, however, while losing weight people need to live their lives too. Living includes connecting, and laughing at things in Chit-Chat, fun and games. So if you don't like it, then don't look at it. Do as I suggested above and search. Or click on the view all forums, then click on the forum you want to go into.

    I think we should be able to filter the sections we do / don't want to see there ... that would make everyone happy.

    How about it MFP ?

    Some of you might call me a Debbie Downer but i'd say the majority of the posts in this section has have NOTHING to do with weight loss. Maybe thats the point of it, but it is annoying to see chat threads come up "would you bone the person above you", "what sport did the person above you play in high school" blah blah blah..

    I really wish MFP had an option to just remove this section completely from the feed. It has zero benefit for me, and I think there are a lot of people on here who are not here for weight loss and fitness instead using this section as myspace, or worse yet- Plenty of Fish dating site.

    OK that is my rant- I know there is nothing I can do to remove it, but most of you are annoying me!! :)

    sooooo deactivate?

    Here:
    Look!! Look! Shortly you'll be able to do just that! Opt out of parts of the board that don't interest you or have any value to you. Link is below on the coming changes!

    Hey Debbie.....

    i knew a Debbie once....she wasn't too much of a downer...no...she made movies...

    special movies....

    movies that you had to look for.....so that others wouldn't have to see them.

    maybe just maybe, you know...

    go in the sub communities and stay in there, then you won't be hit in the face with the gargantuan chit chat that you find hard to swallow...

    How about that Debbie.

    it's a thought. I try to be helpful.

    I think it makes a tighter-knit community. Kinda like how talking around the water cooler makes your coworkers more tolerable. And if you don't like to talk around the water cooler, then you have the option to just... not.
