"This is something I have been asking myself more and more lately - the answer used to be that I enjoyed using the forums and finding likeminded people to chat to and potentially meet. More and more recently though I find little of interest in the forums, it seems to be mainly either trite meaningless threads or contentious ones, with hidden agendas being played out and behind the scenes shenanigans going on that I have no interest in getting involved in - now some of that was always there to a degree, but just lately it seems to be more prevalent and I find less and less I am interested in posting on. I'm also lucky enough to have a wide enough circle of people I know to not be overly bothered about making new connections (although occasionally these still happen). So all that has led me to wonder exactly what the OP is asking and I think if anything Fab has become a "time filler" for me that I dip in and out of rather than being somewhere I immediately head to at every given opportunity." Pretty much this...I have a lot of boring conference calls at work, so I tend to sit and flick idly through the forums while I'm half listening to those | |||

Do you honestly think that about the hidden agenda stuff. I think there actually a LOT LOT less of that now and less cliquish stuff, but maybe I don't see it these days because I'm kinda outside if it all? Personally I think it depends on whether you look for it or not it hope unnecessary grudges. If you're look for something here then you can usually find it pretty quickly especially if you're lurking and not contributing because it's one way text mostly. I do agree there's not a great deal of late to challenge or develop my mind, which is disappointing as that's my main reason to be here, but I think a lot of ppl have lost the appetite for that in these tough times, they often just want to literally eat a nice cake or have a glass of wine and feel good. I kinda understand and respect that though, even if it gives me less to contribute. When I start a thread they're much slower because less folk are bothered to get involved these days unless you accidentally stroke them the wrong way and then it seems they often feel the need to fight rather than talk it out and that's where the only higher volume threads occurr, with the exception of the "rate my mate fancies your pic challenge" threads - but they have a place I think in introducing new folk and making new connections and keeping things positive and light..... I've seen a lot of ppl seeming to be upset about losing their place or status and I guesse it's more difficult and ppl actually have the work for it these days. Complaining that nobody fancies you on a my mate fancies you thread for example though - why do that? Why not just join in and send a few messages or say you're happy to take messages and people will include you eventually, much more positive approach and maybe we could take some joy in giving others joy and in a way that's spreading more joy isn't it....? In summary for me - It's fab, it's alright when you get involved, it's always changing and if it didn't we'd be complaining that it didn't....  | |||

"In summary for me - It's fab, it's alright when you get involved, it's always changing and if it didn't we'd be complaining that it didn't.... "All that is very true and Fab has always been peaks and troughs and that's the nature of the site, just lately it's been in a particularly long period of trough from my own personal perspective, and that may well be partly down to the current climate and circumstances. I'm not bothered in the slightest by it or any kind of "popularity" contest or even my own apathy towards things - as I said, I have enough of a circle of people I know and think enough of to not let it be a concern either way. I do my own thing anyway and always have done. My last post was merely answering the question posed by the OP about my personal perspective currently | |||

I've seen a lot of ppl seeming to be upset about losing their place or status and I guesse it's more difficult and ppl actually have the work for it these days. Complaining that nobody fancies you on a my mate fancies you thread for example though - why do that? Why not just join in and send a few messages or say you're happy to take messages and people will include you eventually, much more positive approach and maybe we could take some joy in giving others joy and in a way that's spreading more joy isn't it....? In summary for me - It's fab, it's alright when you get involved, it's always changing and if it didn't we'd be complaining that it didn't....
I'll just post a thread if one pops into my head. Sometimes it gets noticed. Other times not. I'm happy if I get replies into double figures. It also allows me to exercise my imagination.
Just throw it out there and see what happens

"This is something I have been asking myself more and more lately - the answer used to be that I enjoyed using the forums and finding likeminded people to chat to and potentially meet. More and more recently though I find little of interest in the forums, it seems to be mainly either trite meaningless threads or contentious ones, with hidden agendas being played out and behind the scenes shenanigans going on that I have no interest in getting involved in - now some of that was always there to a degree, but just lately it seems to be more prevalent and I find less and less I am interested in posting on. I'm also lucky enough to have a wide enough circle of people I know to not be overly bothered about making new connections (although occasionally these still happen). So all that has led me to wonder exactly what the OP is asking and I think if anything Fab has become a "time filler" for me that I dip in and out of rather than being somewhere I immediately head to at every given opportunity. Do you honestly think that about the hidden agenda stuff. I think there actually a LOT LOT less of that now and less cliquish stuff, but maybe I don't see it these days because I'm kinda outside if it all? Personally I think it depends on whether you look for it or not it hope unnecessary grudges. If you're look for something here then you can usually find it pretty quickly especially if you're lurking and not contributing because it's one way text mostly. I do agree there's not a great deal of late to challenge or develop my mind, which is disappointing as that's my main reason to be here, but I think a lot of ppl have lost the appetite for that in these tough times, they often just want to literally eat a nice cake or have a glass of wine and feel good. I kinda understand and respect that though, even if it gives me less to contribute. When I start a thread they're much slower because less folk are bothered to get involved these days unless you accidentally stroke them the wrong way and then it seems they often feel the need to fight rather than talk it out and that's where the only higher volume threads occurr, with the exception of the "rate my mate fancies your pic challenge" threads - but they have a place I think in introducing new folk and making new connections and keeping things positive and light.....

I like the forums, I've never come across an app like that before.
I also nose through profiles and I read verifications.. It's nice to know how much fun people are having.
I imagine this would be a better experience if I knew some of you in real life. So the social side is appealing to me.
