LOOK! :mad: if you are not here to get support or offer support please find another site. This is a place were people come to meet like minded people with common goals. Keep nasty, rude, unnecessary comments to your self our better yet start a blog else where for people of the same negative spirit!

  • I can't be mad at that, constructive criticism is ok on some levels.

    Hmm that seemed rude to me :p

    haha I agree it is a support site, but that doesn't mean everyone will be nice. It is the internet and people will say what they want.

    some people take the "brutal truth" to be rude. Some people just find it as a wake up call.

    Being down right disgusting is not the same thing. You can choose not to be nice and disagree with comments but when you set out to deliberately offend people that is just plain sick IMHO!

    Being nasty, disgusting, and rude is not the same as being "Brutally Honest" or giving "constructive criticism" they are totally different. I ask for both constructive criticism and honesty. Those are not the situations I am speaking of. I don't see how this is rude.

    As long as people stay withen the rules of mfp then there really is not anything you can do about.Not everybody goes about weight loss the same as you.This is not the e harmony of the exercise world where they filter out people who dont fit that sites criteria.
    What you consider rude and unsupportave someone else might not.
    It is not up to you to decide who can an can not be on the site

    For someone who wants everyone to play nice this is pretty angry. Just sayin'.
    Not everyone is going to have the same personality. What you may think is rude or unnecessary someone else may not.
    Some times being an adult requires growing thicker skin.

    lol the drama surrounding the whole cussing and "bad pictures" is ridiculous. Everyone is different and everyone's tolerant level is different. What may be offensive to you may not be offensive to others, not everyone is the same (luckily!). Embrace the differences.
  • I find the People here on MFP very much like the people I find in real life, yet as hard as I try I can't filter out the unwanted. If a post or a person isn't your cup of tea, skip the post, unfriend them and carry on your way.

    Yes there is a lot of drama here, but honestly in our attempts to support each other in our healthy journeys we find dear close and honest friends. I will stand up and fight for anyone of my dear friends on MFP just as I would in real life. If that causes drama then so be it.

    Seemed a bit angry and targeting others to get off the site haha makes it rude

    But just saying that what others find rude, some might not. I honestly havent seen many people be disgusting. People argue but that happens everywhere in real life.

    You are right but I guess when I signed up I was thinking that it was going to be different than Facebook. At least with Facebook you can choose what you see or what shows on your wall. Its hard to ignore somethings when its RIGHT in your face. You have actually altered my thoughts on the situation. I am a Christian and often reflect on that in my post, so I guess that could bother people as well. However I am a person full of Joy and somethings bothered my soul. I apologize if this offended people. I will continue to refer to God in post and Blogs (if I ever do one on here), so you do you.

    I will end by saying to each its own.

    Live and Love on Purpose with no excuse
    God Bless
