I was going to post my thoughts in this thread, but then I discovered I already did that a few years ago.
Classic! Love it!
I was at the other end. I was certain I had posted my thoughts in this thread, then I noticed I had not said anything here. It was another "how social are you in real life" thread I was thinking about that I had posted in.
hey why not lets just trash forum etiquette totally, we got married and taken people hanging in singles. of course men still ain't allowed in the women only part, (talk about discriminating) might as well get us some militant atheists posting around here.
wisebeardman I submit for you a point of logic.
Given: The forum is what it is.
Given: You cannot change it or keep it from changing. This has been proven, as your many fervent attempts have been of no avail.
Observation: The forum as it is, and as it is becoming, seems to be causing you great distress. That, or something in your life is causing you distress and you are venting here.
Given: Nobody is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to participate in this forum with which you have so many objections.
Conclusion: There is a 93% chance that leaving the forum for a time will be beneficial for you. You might return or you might decide to not return, but it seems a lot like you need a break for a while.
