I agree. If you don't like someone's profile pic just don't pay attention to it.

That's why u r still my Friend Gorgeous!

Wht happened to all the fun and laughter. It seems as if its a lot of telling on each other. Last I checked everyone on here was over the age of 18. Tht being said, adults should act as such.

I see both "sides" of this debate stating that we're all adults, and those on the "other side" should act like it. If we're all adults, shouldn't we follow the rules of the site? I'm talking about quoting the bible and referring to God, as well as posting overly vulgar comments and pics. Both will offend someone, which is exactly why the rules are in place. If everyone would respect the rules, the mods wouldn't have to censor anything. Both sides are reporting each other and both sides are complaining. It is not just in the chit-chat section either. I think it's best for everyone to respect the rules, quit trying to see how far we can push a topic, stop reporting/complaining, and let the mods work on some groups. Once groups are established, we can go to the specific areas of our interest and stay out of the ones that will likely offend us. Everyone needs support here, and we all get it in different ways. We need to respect that, too.

This ^^^

I'm just so sick of all the drama! Both sides are being ridiculous! It SO feels like Junior High right now :grumble:

People feel strongly and trying to shape something that is important to you is commendable. Calling people childish does nothing to alleviate nor constructively add to the conversation.

However, when it seems like you're in the middle of a "shut up! - no you shut up!" kind of fight, junior high does seem an appropriate comparison. Can't we just all wait for groups? I know I'll be glad to be able to talk about certain topics that I currently refrain from discussing. However, since my primary goal for being here is weight loss, I don't feel like not being able to express certain things is all that much of a hindrance when I found such a great site, that's free.

It used to be fun...I have friends on here I would truly miss without MGP. Now you have to be an uptight prude with a stick up your *kitten* to get along. F that...love me or leave me *****es :devil:

Ahhh, I have no idea who you are but, I love you!! This is my theory exactly...you know how the old saying goes "opinins are like *kitten*, everyone has one". Man I get messages quite often telling me to watch myself...I'm sorry the last I checked this is a community post meaning anyone can post, but no one is forcing you to read!

Groups worry me in that it my completely splinter MFP. I looked at Reddit and the million and one subreddits. That is a possibility.

If u have a problem with Wht someone says, inbox them and or delete them. By no means should u run and tell. This is a place for venting, relaxing, laughing, friendships and weight loss. I name weight last because u need to have fun while losing weight. Come on ppl stop the madness.

*hanging head in shame*

ok ok I admit it... I told on Big Lew... but it's because of his nekkid back....he shouldn't have shown it to me...LOL


*sticking tongue out at everyone* So THERE!

BIG_Lew

So tell me, does this ^^^ "alleviate or constructively add to the conversation", as you say?

Why can't I add my .02? Most posts in this thread are not "alleviating or constructively adding to the conversation" one bit. And that's really my only point; that the bickering back & forth is just SO old & tired now. I'm personally not offended by either side; I just get bothered by the constant drama of if all.

I agree as well.. I was reported 2 times today for pics of my booty and was asked to remove them.. Wth!!
Wonder how long till I will be told to delete my new one.. Absolutely ridiculous... I am damn proud of what I have accomplished and after losing 148lbs I should be able to show off my rewards.. Not Like I am Naked in the pics..

And may I just say, that is a nice looking booty. I'm hoping that, some day, my booty might look vaguely as nice as that. It's a goal. I've also seen "worse" out on the street, so that pic is not a problem to me.

It is called "context". Perhaps you should look it up.

You still didn't answer the question. How did you do what you instructed me to do: "alleviate or constructively add to the conversation"?

My comment was perfectly in line with some of the discussion on this thread. Or didn't you notice the posts I quoted originally?

I'm locking this topic because there have already been several inappropriate posts which I've removed. But I also wanted to make it clear that it's not a matter of people reporting or not reporting pictures. The essence of the issue is that we, the creators of MFP, don't want adult or otherwise sexual content on the site. If you are looking for that, there are a lot of other places on the internet that would be happy to provide it to you. But that type of content is not appropriate for MFP.

We're happy to help as many people as we can live healthier lives, and to form lasting, meaningful friendships in the process. But we don't need to allow adult content on the site to do that, nor do we want it. We're not prudes, and we're not judging - if that's what you want, by all means, go out and find it and have fun. But MFP is not the place for that.
