How do you use MFP for support when it's not being used Properly

I'm not sure what you are speaking of. You only have one post on the forums. Maybe by this point something has been removed?

While someone who knows me already could probably stumble onto the forums and figure out who I am, I generally don't post a lot of identifying information on the Internet. I don't post my real name or pictures of myself. Some people do offer more, and that's fine. I accept that sometimes I will get comments about me or my lifestyle that I will have to disregard even if they're not overtly hateful or threatening (those I would report, if I ever got one). This forum is one of the best ones I've ever been on, but sometimes there are trolls or rude people, and sometimes even the posters who tend to keep cool heads get frustrated. We're human.

There are some boards and threads I just choose not to participate in because they're not to my taste.

Sometimes I have been pushed a little in my thinking from other posters and it was uncomfortable at first but later on I realized it was something I needed to hear. Some posters have more blunt communication styles than others. When you hang out for a while you can learn how to read people. I tend to be wordier. I am like that in real life, too.

I do hope you stick around, and I'm sorry you haven't felt as supported as you would like thus far. I hope that changes.

If it's in Chit Chat or Fun and Games they're ridiculous forums in general in my opinion, and I have them "unfollowed" so I never see them - but you can't stop adults like your husband from participating in online banter/flirting/inappropriate interactions. (If that's what happened...)

I don't go in to those forums at all but other people really like them. To each their own, ya know?

Wait, how do you do that?!

Yes, OP, I'm not sure what posts you are referring to but my guess is that if they were reported and not removed, they didn't actually violate the guidelines. That doesn't make the situation not stink, though, and I hope you can work it out.

On the web version go to the main "Categories" page, here: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories

in the upper right corner of each subforum in the list on that page you'll see three dots. Clickety that and it will say, "Mark Read" and "Follow (or) Unfollow." If it says "Unfollow" click that and threads from that forum will disappear from the "Discussions" list - which is the only place I go in the forums, it's the most recent threads.

Alternately, you can click in to each individual forum, like "Chit Chat" and there is a bell icon in the upper right corner (NOT the one in the top title bar that takes you to your bookmarks and profile, but in the lower window, in the actual subforum) which will say Follow or Unfollow when you hover your cursor over it. You can click that and it will do the deed.
