What filth?
Asking for a friend 😁
Actually thats a good idea appointing Reenie as head of anti-spam task force but I say we go further and appoint her Forum Queen to rule as she sees fit 😃 that would be fun. 🥳
Flagging as I comment. I'm no fun. Just ask anybody in my RL.
And as much as I stick my nose in the air when someone mentions spam, I actually used to like it, a little mayo, cheese and toast.

YES! Although it should be place of choice cause I'd prefer amazon gift cards. I always waited for the award to hit me when they announce I'd achieved one. But then nothing. Anti-climactic.2 -

Return it back to the great weight loss community it used to be. Not a social media for all these random, creepy, non weight loss messages. You have to really look too even find messages related to losing weight and fittness anymore. Come on guys (MFP), your better than this.
I didn't disagree but would if I was a disagreer by nature but not being one to stir up a hornet's nest(often anyways)I just wanted to point out ALL the other parts of MFP that do exist relating to diet/health/exercise/fitness/blahblahblah. In fact, that's where I started when I found MFP, didn't dare venture over here, leaving over there where all the normal people are but found my cave over here where it's fun, relaxing, crazy, in time. I still visit there but live here.
To each their own; we all draw from MFP what we need.
And besides(guess I'm not done yet) isn't mental health parallel to physical health?8 -
That’s okay, she told me she put me on the ignore list, but I’m at the top of her ignore list!🙌🏽💃🏽🥰

Most phones come with a built-in health app. May I suggest you start using that if this app is not working out for you!? Or just not go into the Chit Chat part of this community and just stick to the fitness topic forums.6 -

Its possible that you may have been friends with them before.. old friends that are no longer on your fl can still contact you 🙂
That’s right! We were. I thought it was weird because I’ve read here and there that you can’t message people if you’re not friends.
Why did they do that⁉️
I think it was because a lot of people were getting random creepy messages. Its also why people can't see messages in their friend request anymore, that feature was disabled.
I'd bring that feature back.. I miss seeing a message in my fr requests ( not that everyone adds one)
Its just censorship. It is becoming normal and accepted everywhere. Why would it be any different here?2 -
Nope--you're wrong. The disagree feature is fairly new. I've been here 8 years and people didn't hold back. There were pages of arguing and escalation and rage quits. Things are tame now. People have no qualms about ripping you apart in public. There are more stones out there than you think.4 -

Ohhh, for the good old days. If you quit because you can't defend your position or take the heat, you don't need to be here anyway. Just go to a safe space.
Or maybe this is a safe space?1 -

And kudos to you for responding, and not just hitting 'disagree". I have great respect for that.
And I "liked" your post.2 -

I guess whoever owns the site can run it however they wish. I can either accept their censorship and rules or not. But IF I had a say.. I would like to see the messages with fr requests and messages from non friends. I won't hold my breath waiting for them to return though 😁3 -

Yeah, they can surely do what they want. And it would be great to see the messages. I try to be creative in my friend requests, but I guess I am wasting my time.0 -

We both got "disagrees". Ha---I actually loved the "good old days" on here. It was way more interesting, and people were uncovered lying because when things heated up they slipped. The forums were totally different. But, as said, the owners decided to protect the sensitive, and it's still not enough for some. But---anyone who thinks taking away the disagree option will silence folks, is in for a big surprise.2 -

I don't want them to take the "disagree"option away. I love it. I wear my "disagrees" like a badge of honor. It's like a silver star in the war on ignorance IMHO. I just wish you could actually see the names of those who disagree. If you are going to rate something, own it, good or bad.1 -
