....but MFP is what you make of it. I have seen a lot of threads lately about how much MFP and the people on here suck but that is on the OP. This place is what YOU make of it and how YOU choose to use it. I have met some truly wonderful people that are friends...real friends. I have also been able to be inspired and inspire others. I have accomplished things I didn't think I could and have become a healthier happier person because of MFP. So stop *****ing and use this site to make your life better or leave....

*kicks soap box*

To my friends and you know who you are :drinker: and thanks!

    I thought you were dumping me when I saw the title. That would make me sad. I would cry.

    To be fair, I think most of the complaints pertain to the intense level of moderation that has become necessary, due to all the grown children who patrol this forum in particular and get some cheap thrill out of reporting any and everything that they don't care for.

    Agreed! I love this site. But I do think most of the complaints are about the sometimes heavy-handed moderation of the forums, not necessary the site itself. Meh, I'll play by the rules because I love the rest of the site and just deal with the over-modding of the boards.

    That may be but I still maintain that it is what you make of it....

    Agree totally! I just ignore the negativity and carry on even when someone insults me.

    It's what you make of MFP and the friends you make that make it enjoyable and life changing in some cases.

    From a health and fitness standpoint, sure, MFP is what you make of it. And we all get that that's what this site is primarily about. But regular members can't do anything about the infants who find it necessary to complain every time someone says the word "sex" on the "Chit-chat, fun, and games" forum.

    Agreed! I am here to lose weight and better my life. I will encourage those around me on my friend list but I'm not about to play the Real Friends of MyFitnessPal and go all Snookie on people.

    I agree with you. Watch out though, this type of talk might get the thread locked! :grumble:

    And I say again...if you know it is an issue then post it in your feeds...why get worked up over things that you know will be an issue?
