edited September 30 in Motivation and Support
I find it very unmotivating and unsupportive to the MFP community for some members to use this site as a drama inducing tool. I too have opinions about proper behaviors in and out of the workplace and in public and about parenting skills as well as proper clothing etiquette. I do not however use MFP as a venue for sharing these opinions. It is annoying to log on to my MFP site and hear nothing but rudeness and negativity. I am here for support so if you feel the need to talk S*%t about others please do so on Facebook or Twitter.

    I just automatically skip those posts. I try to avoid drama in my own life. I have little need to get involved in someone else's.

    DEFINITELY!
    + people need somewhere to vent
    and drama causes binge eating
    and that links to weight gain

    so it all relates

    For sure!

    We all have the ability to control what we read. If you see a post going a direction you don't like - QUIT READING! While your rant is well understood, we are only in control of ourselves.

    It is a free internet forum, we arent all going to like everyone and agree with everything. I agree I dont like negativity either but we cant change everyones behaviors and attitudes to match our own. Thats just the way the worl works, unfortunately its not all rainbows and unicorns. People can post what they want, we can just choose to ignore what we dont agree with and move on with our lives.
