  • Chit-chat is my favorite. I'm going to be pissed if it gets taken away.
    I hate people who get offeneded by every little thing.
    Seriously just find another thread and something better to do with your time than tattleing.

    Some people just need to go back to their bubbles they live in and stay off the internet...or just keep it to shopping. I'm always amazed by what actually offends people. It's like they've never left their house before or something.

    Maybe some never have. And that's okay. I'm not saying being offended by something is wrong. It's how you deal with it. For example, I totally respect and understand that some people get offended by Christians talking about God. I get that. That's a very personal thing and some people don't believe for some very real reasons. But, if you go into a thread that you know is going to be about God just to get it locked/deleted, then that I disagree with.

    I can also understand some people being offended by pics of women's breasts, men's v's, or thong shots. And that's okay. But, don't go into one of those threads and get all righteously indignant and start reporting or telling people they have issues. Just don't.

    You and me both Patti... I don't think I have actually reported anything here... The only time I report anything is if it is porn that runs across my facebook feed or on Pinterest... I don't want to see that and it's against the TOS of many sites...

    Don't worry booby friday folks, I don't report y'all because it's not porn when you have a bikini or a t-shirt or some such on... in other words it ain't me!

    I would be so sad if the chit chat section went away. I hardly ever post but I lurk A LOT. It helps me pass the time at work when I sit and do nothing for 9 hours a day. I don't always agree with what I see, but if that is the case, I just click the back button and move on. I sure wish more people would do the same.

    Looks like I will have to fill the time with something productive, like maybe some fitness.. BOO!

    we may soon not have a Chit-Chat section and will be required to discuss anything non-fitness related in private groups.

    This is the saddest thing I've read today.

    Yes, it only takes one broken douche nozzle to really make a mess of things.

    Alright, I have been trying to figure this out on my own but I am just gonna ask. What/who the hell is TOM?
  • There is no such thing as a thread that is not relevant to me.

    Ok, hmm... let's see... if I don't understand, then it's not relevant to me... which means I should try to get it locked/deleted? I'm confused, is there a flowchart for this somewhere?:laugh:
    What do you do when you read a thread title and you KNOW it's not relevant to you (think someone's birthday who you may not know or TOM issues)?

    What do you do when you read a thread title that you are pretty certain will have comments that you'll find offensive (think a title religious in nature or Booby Friday)?

    What do you do when you enter a thread, then realize it's not relevant to you or that you're offended?
    (and I'm not talking about pro-ana, dangerous diets, or scams here)

    If your answer is to report the thread or start commenting hoping it will get locked/deleted, then congratulations. YOU are the reason we may soon not have a Chit-Chat section and will be required to discuss anything non-fitness related in private groups.

    If you don't understand anything I'm saying, then this thread is not relevant to you.

    Just change the forum name to "Don't Talk About Anything Except The Poster Above You in Various Shallow and Meaningless Ways Or Risk Being Banned. And Games."

    Problem solved.

    Funny how those are permitted.

    If I was a dude, I'd go there and throw a fit. But I'm not. Any takers?


    I don't feel like going through 10 pages - care to give me the tl/dr version?
