    I know how you feel! The same people who think they are experts keep slamming others . I hardly every get into the rants or respond to many of these. I like talking and comparing notes with my friends and reasonable people....but sometimes it seems that the forums are an attraction for people who are extremely bored and just want to rant . They need to get a life. There are a lot of us who really value the friendship and support of others!

    Thanks. I know my post may seem contradictary, but it does state it is a rant!!

    You are all laughable. You click on my post for what reason??

    To post gifs, because the mods will be along to lock this at some point. In the meantime we shall entertain each other with gifs, and laugh at the irony of your post.

    OP, it's probably best to stay off the forums til you get used to the way people act (out) around here. Most the kids that only post on here with snarky comments and no real advice got lost on their way to 4chan and reddit ;)

    clearly has no idea what 4chan is.
    No kidding.

    I was pretty upfront about my reasons for being here from page 1. Gifs entertain me.

    And...it's...not laughable that your post did exactly what you were ranting at other people about? Cos I tell you, I laughed....



    Some would call it ironic! Just copying the behaviour of everyone else on here as it seems its the way to communicate these days.

    These threads ALWAYS make me wonder what thread responses prompted the OPs to post a "mean people" thread in the first place.

    OP, what was the straw that broke your back? What moral crime did you witness that forced you to start this thread? I would love to know.

    Objectively speaking, you just walked into a "room" full of people, called them a bunch of pr!cks, then yelled at them for not redeeming themselves to you. That's pretty ironic.

    Just a rant.

    Getting slightly annoyed at the attitudes of people on these forums. What is the need to be so rude??

    Unless the question states that they need an opinion then simply dont give it; or if they are asking for an opinion, then please learn the etiquette of expressing your views... There is a way to do it without being such a p***k.

    Anyway, if theres anyone out there who is like me, here to support people on the same journey and togain some motivation, then please friend request me.

    Rant over!!

    Or reddit.

    Because anyone who groups 4Chan and Reddit into the same category obviously does not internet.

    It doesn't state rant in the topic, maybe that's why people clicked.

    Yeah, I can't stand people who are rude and arrogant. We are all here to better ourselves, right? We should all stay positive for each other and instead of criticizing, motivate!

    It depends on how one defines "rude" and "arrogant." People are going to give advice based on their personal experiences. Some people have more direct personalities than others, they prefer to tell it like it is instead of being "nice." Some people respond better to direct advice/criticism while others prefer people to be "nice." It just depends on the OP and the people giving responses.

    LOL. Next time can you make it clear in your title that you don't want people to click on your post? Cause that would be really helpful. Thanks.

    I'm sifting through page 3 and have yet to find anything mean... surprise, surprise.

    When they start talking about eating disorders. The comments weren't directed towards me, i hardly commented. I was refering to the way people communicate.

    Some say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit... Just saying

    I get how you feel, OP. I get tired of the useless stupid people who think that support no matter what is the way to deal with people. And worse, the stupid people who try to pass off halfassed advice as fact because they read an opinion blog of a stupid person or seem to think that fat and sugar are the devil.

    And how dare someone give their opinion to a girl eating 500 calories per day and running a half marathon daily to lose 30lbs by next week to impress a boy by looking good in a bikini on vacation?! How do they know her unique body isnt designed completely different than the rest of humanity and needs fuel for healthy body function?

    You are all jerks. With your hilarious gifs and sarcasm.

    I *could* believe that if it hadn't taken you pages of replies to think that one up....*after* other people pointed out how ironic it was..... :huh:
