    Loooook! You've made it to the popular threads list on the side bar...told ya!

    Now it's popping up in Recent Topics.

    How very annoying. Someone should change the whole website, I can't be bothered to click on the subforums I'm interested in.

    I cant believe this is taking up space on the Recent Posts - it has absolutely nothing to with exactly where I am in my weight loss journey and self affirmation program.

    I don't think one person in here is mad at you.

    We do all think you're pretty silly though..

    The chit chat is for emotional growth on a social level. It is where people grow emotionally by expressing their love and hate for all things. Life is not just weights....its not........kicks ball, looks at feet and walks away with slumped shoulders.

    Duh, that was kinda the point. And I thought it took a thread asking for the pointless validation of the stranger who posts below me...who knew.

    I don't mean to offend anyone participating in those threads...but honestly...we're not in high school, we're not "f@cking" the person above you, and the person who just guessed you were 32...was probably just being nice.

    :laugh: :laugh:


    But seriously, what I do when "chit chat" keep coming up, is I click on message boards again, then click on "food and nutrition" and see the most recent just for that board. Then I click on "Fitness" and just see the recent ones on that board.

    It's just a fact that the chit chat board has more activity than the others. I have noticed that too, but just work around it. And every once in a while, I find a thread on the chit chat board that is worthy of my perusal. :flowerforyou:

    it was your point to replace something about fitness on the Recent Posts with you complaining about what other people do with their time?

    lol youre so bad at this

    So what you really want is a way to filter the 'recent posts' on your home page. Sounds like a good suggestion. If I remember, there is a separate forum for feedback and suggestions ;)

    Almost every website that I have been on with a forum has some sort of "chit-chat" or misc area.
    Good luck finding a better website for tracking food than mfp

    Why does it matter if people participate in goofy pointless threads? It doesn't make them any less dedicated to fitness. You can log your food and exercise, talk nutrition, and participate in off topic threads ALL AT ONCE! I know its crazy that people may want to talk about something else besides nutrition/exercise once in a while.


    As for the recent topics area. Just click on what board you want. Problem solved.
    Though sometimes I think it would be nice to exclude the chit0chat part, but its not that time consuming or difficult to click on another section xD

    But you aren't supposed to complain about what other people write and how they act under that forum xD

    So funny how testy people get. I'm not trying to take away your internet friends who will tell you how datable you are!...there there...I know you were a nerd in high school (because you told everyone) but you're popular here!

    I'll just ignore the "Recent" section from now on. No worries, children.
    this sounded like a cry for help.

    You could maybe stop clicking on the Recent Posts tab and click on areas of the site that you're interested in instead.

    Since Chit Chat comes up most often in Recent searches it's clearly very popular.

    You don't think it's asking a lot that entire subforums be created just because you like to click on Recent posts but don't like what people are recently posting?

    What will they do when that subforum pops up in your recent feed?

    Tell you what how about you just tell everyone what they should and should not post? It seems to be what you're really interested in anyway. You didn't post this under Technical Suggestions or Website Feedback, you posted IN Chit Chat, Fun and Games. The very subforum you're complaining about to begin with.

    OR you could stop this nonsense and go run/lift.

    *ahem*

    What he said.
    *cough* what she said he said.
