What gets your goat?

I'll start.

When forum regulars treat every other thread as a personal chat room and are whispering sweet nothings to each other while ignoring the really important discussion about what is exactly the right amount of public hair.

Seriously, get a room guys. Sure it's totally normal to post random replies for shits and giggles but if you've stopped by to endlessly quote each other in off topic drivel then please exit stage left. It's rude and it disrupts the thread.

Unsolicited advice. I am guilty of this in the past but I'm trying more and more to actually read what (especially newbies) are asking and not just trotting out a wrote list of tick box answers

If you have no experience in something, don't give people advice about it.

That's my rant! My first on fab I believe.

Any pet peeves? Let it rip. This is a safe space.

Far far away

Snide comments which are off topic. Or ridiculing people for questions especially newbies.. Yes, we all heard the questions before takes nothing to be polite.

As for public hair ice cream... I like to bring mine out occasionally.

Oh and typos

"I try not to rant as well OP but sometimes you gotta call a spade a spade and not a club "

I credit your measured responses as an influence on me trying to listen a bit better.

But yeah if someone is being a dick they are fair game.

Plus I agree on all your points above (as usual)

One of mine:

Advising single guys to use the Forum as a way to break into the swing scene. This is poor advice.

By all means use the Forum to chat if you enjoy it (its fun!) BUT remember that 99% of women won't see your posts (as they don't use the Forum) or take any heed of your efforts.

A few as above. My biggest gripe is the snide comments and the posters who think their the oracle on here.

I've seem the true colours of a few and in all honesty nothing surprises me anymore , paddle your own canoe and ignore the waffle.

The only thing that gets my goat on the forums are when people list all the things they hate about the forums without the slightest hint of irony.

They must really struggle with self loathing.

I hate to see the forum having a string of messages arguing usually nothing to do with the topic and bringing stuff from other forum posts into the argument e.g. I see from your posts on other forum threads you say x, y, z normally completely off topic

I enjoy the forums,dont care what threads are about as I can chose whether to post a reply or not

Sometimes they go off on a tagent and turn very very funny

Sometimes the topics are over my head

Sometimes they give me answers to questions

Foamy, you do not, in fact, have a profile pic.

Probably the only thing that unites everybody on fab is a dislike of the absence of profile pics.

This site should not allow anyone join the site unless they send a face pic to the site

Just our opinion

Yes biometric access controls are definitely the way forward.

What could go wrong.

If I don’t like a thread or a profile i don’t engage with it. There isn’t a possible solution to twatty behaviours (which are only subjectively so anyway) …

Nothing, it’s the internet, why would you allow anything to ‘get your goat’

Eeek.. that would make this place a prime target for hackers. Remember what happened at AM

I don't mind exploring related little avenues off topics that are raised. I don't feel that the thread creator owns the content in a thread and it's ok to deviate to some extent.

Nothing really annoys me here, but I don't mind calling out the BS where I see it

I don't really get irritated by any particular forum conduct, it's easy enough to avoid, ignore or skip stuff that isn't up my street.

However fab never stops me being fascinated - sometimes up to a mind boggling point - by certain (naive) believes or cringey behaviour in the fab forum community. It can be quite entertaining.

Yip, nothing would stir the juices of the hacking/extortion community more than a facial database of professionals/attached fabsters to extract from

The only things that annoy the fuck out of me here is the opinions of the self proclaimed experts or the folks that mouth off about others not attending socials so can't have an opinion on those even though said people were attending socials before the "experts" even knew this site existed.

Sometimes everything annoys me, sometimes nothing does. Sometimes I call BS, sometimes I ignore and log out. Depends on my mood.

We un-photo verified ourselves recently and it seemed to irk them because in the process they rejected two of our previously approved photos
