Anybody else get sick of the superficial interactions to be found on this board?

You'd think with the traffic this place gets that it would have more of a personality than just a living stereotype of Bowling for Soup's High School Never Ends.

    This thread is not superficial enough for attention, apparently.

    You dont have to take part, find others who have your point of view. Moaning about it is unlikely to change it. Better off spending that time down the gym.

    If it's deep, meaningful interaction you're looking for, why don't you try real life? Or, I don't know, starting some yourself? Jumping on here and criticizing how it's done probably isn't going to get you what you what you want.

    Yes, it annoys me, that MFP is high schoolish.

    However, so is facebook, and those are people you know irl.

    If the people irl have unsubstantial realtionships, what do you think of this place?

    If you'd like to have real substance, hang out irl with people who care about stuff.

    If you'd like to engage in higher level conversation than "I'd bang," or "how you doin?" You are going to have to start the thread.

    Starting some yourself?

    I think I try hard enough in that area...

    And my complaint is with the forum in general, not friend interactions...those are awesome because I've found the best this site has to offer.

    Newbie here... Just jumping in to say that's the kind of thread I'm looking for but haven't been successful.

    I'm doing great. Just spent time out side with my boys playing 4-square. I have seen the game played during recess but never realized how competitive it can be!

    I was "schooled"

    I started a "coffee bar" thread for more ongoing conversation.
