    I completely agree. Any decent human being will agree. But not everyone is.

    The most vicious people are prob, in real life, the biggest losers. Trying to hide it however they must.


    Its like dogs, the scariest dogs rarely bark before they really attack. The ones that do are the scared dogs. Warning to stay away.


    Ignoring is the best option.

    Web forums turn us back into kindergarteners. Establish a pecking order, identify the vulnerable, and organize a group attack.

    so true!

    I realize that it's not a perfect world, but seeing people put others down on this website really upsets me. I constantly see myfitnesspal members complain about people at the gym who aren't as advanced as them, or they put down the people who don't do the same exercises or have the same weight-loss method. Everyone loses weight differently, be it by cardio or weight lifting. I'm also tired of seeing rude threads that talk about another person's attire and if it's "wrong" for the gym. If they are having a successful work out it shouldn't matter what they wear. Some people can't afford nice shoes and clothes so please don't be so quick to judge. The only person you should worry about is YOURSELF. Unless someone at the gym is hitting you in the head with a weight or trying to trip you on the treadmill you should leave them alone. Just be courteous of others if they aren't bothering you.


    That post is ironic, that's what that is. Irony.

    How is it Irony? I want to e-mail Richard Castle and ask him if it's a proper use of Irony, because I am skeptical.. xD

    That is so true... And were all on here because we want to get fit and lose weight. Talking down on people is never good doesn't matter when your doing it.

    Hey, I organize them. I'm the alpha. Oh wait, that's just my fantasy. I'm really the one in the trash can.

    Like you said, there are several ways to get and maintain fitness. Each one of us is different. What works for someone else may not work for you. It however, may work for you. I think it is good to share ideas and methods. But most important, be respectful of each other at all times.

    I used to friend everyone, but now I just friend people that I know. Too much unrequested "advice" (criticism). I found it ironic that the people who were criticizing others the most were also the ones who had lost the least. I guess sometimes people feel empowered in their anonymity.

    Bottom line is, I got rid of all the unknowns and I use the Fitness Pal to make my fitness journey easier.

    For the most part, I would like to think that people are pretty nice on here.

    I must be extremely luck because I've never seen anyone act that way on MFP...
    You must have not seen the cameltoe thread.

    There was a cameltoe thread? I miss everything. :angry:

    So funny... another thread on people living on planet earth! I am beginning to believe in martians...
    On earth, there is all kind of people: happy happy joy joy, mean, annoying, obnoxious, cry babies, anger management... name it... deal with it! How? Let it be and ignore. And live your life. Period.
    Cant handle it? Buy a deserted island... they are here to stay.
    And no they are no necessarily low self-esteem people or whatever I have read.. some are like that.... it's like saying "Oh they take drugs, they must come from a dysfunctional family and been abused!" Sorry... they don't ALL do....

    Those threads makes me laugh...
