Pisses me of when someone may not me popular but comes to the forum for some help, advice and they get attacked belittled and probably won't ever come back because of it. And they only wanted to open a dialogue!

Maybe they don't kmow to draft a question to your tastes!.

The question can be innocuous but something the replies make the op feel like shit!

A harmless question turns to anger and ugliness..that's a sad day for me

It unfortunately happens all too much not only with new people to the forum, but those that don’t post frequently; couple that with the different responses a man or a woman would receive for posting the same question, it is an ugly can of worms

Deep breaths sweetie.

You’re right, sometimes we as people can be horribly over-critical, especially of what we regulars may deem as “stupid questions.”

Maybe we should consider our responses with more care and remember there is a person on the other side of the question.

Pisses me off too. I usually try and stick up for them but get a load of abuse myself. Doesn’t bother me but I agree it’s not fair on them. Also annoys me when people post something and people say “not this again” when they’re new and wouldn’t even know it’s been posted before!

For me it is the human on the other. Who needs that land of negativity thrown at them and sometimes it's just to make someone looks clever....but not in my eyes. There is a feeling person under it all. The negativity could be the final straw for them.

It's great to laugh with people but not at them.

I have noticed this too. Maybe some forget that there were once newbies too? Maybe some are a bit too tetchy because of real life frustrations and take it out on others? Maybe some try to be amusing but others don't get their sense of humor? Maybe some are just fucktards?

Fortunately I haven't seen the Spelling & Grammar Police do many raids recently, but I still look for red underlined words when I'm typing and correct any mistakes so I don't get lynched.

I'm not saying it's wright but Just to be devil's advocate some times it might be they way someone phrases something that can cause offence or some times it can be asking a question that's been asked so many times that push some people over the edge. Equally Sometimes the responder might not have meant it the way others have read it.

Outright abuse and unnecessary negativity is uncalled for. However I've been accused of bullying on a thread once for making a silly comment when I'd previously interacted with the poster and he was actually joining in with my joke. I've also had people get very offended on my behalf in response to silly comments made towards me which are actually jokes between me and the poster. Sometimes context is key. If the poster is clearly upset by the comments however that is of course different.

The written word is the greatest form of mis-communication!

It's so easy to misunderstand something when you cant hear the tone of voice or see the facial expressions of the person writing it, and in the context it was meant.

"Developing a gator's hide helps. Trust me, I know."

Agree but it's a sad fact that anyone should have to - but there are some who seem to take great delight in belittling newbies - they're always banging on about being inclusive but their version of inclusive is between themselves, seen it happen so many times.

It's also interesting to note how different it is dependent not only on how "well known" a poster is, but their gender - a man and a woman could post exactly the same thread, worded the same etc and get entirely different reactions.

Not saying it always happens but it does happen.

Yes I do agree with you but If any trolls come along some worst than others their sad sole aim is to disrupt the post and the op to I,ve seen it happen here a lot and elsewhere but you have to try and be prepared for them and the best way to do that is to Ignore them and anyone who leans towards them Ignore them to you have to learn these things unfortuneately confrontation is not the way to go because the trolls and their mates will win never get drawn in ever I know it must be hard at times not to depending on the persons /character/nature but unfortuneately these such places draw them inside and always will do sadly.

Some are just too quick to comment negativly without finding if it was meant the way they took it and then answered it.

If your left in doubt about the meaning of a question why not clarify it?.

As for a question that's been asked so many times and may push some people over the edge. Then why be bitter about it. We were all new once thinking we had fresh material when imfact most of it's done to death. Let them find their feet and hopefully have some fun. For me that's what the forums are about

There still is now to a point,but it pees me off when people are horrible for no reason. So cheers for this forum,peace all. As the saying goes,if you can’t say anything nice don’t say it at all

It’s the pedantic responses on threads that do my head in.

Someone uses the word girls and there’s always one saying “We’re women, not girls”

Or someone asks how many people have you slept with and someone will pipe up they’ve had sex with x amount but only slept with y amount.

Petty, pedantic, pointless replies.

And the absolute worse one is when someone says “Can I ask a question?” and the amount of regular forum users who think they’re so bloody clever answering “You already have.”

Grow the fuck up

And when confronted on it (the bullies) act like they are being bullied themselves and deploy the victim card.

The mods do a good job over all. It’s a pretty thankless task to be honest.

It’s the fake behaviour I cannot stand.

The cliques and bullying.

I get ignored quite a bit these days (apart from from the people I know) and that’s fine.

But when you know someone or some people manipulate situations it’s boils my piss.

I think ppl see what they want to see and a lot of folk unfortunately see a threat or a challenge to their position or status. But to me it's pretty obvious if someone is being a knob or not and I would imagine most other folk see that too, so a newbie who sticks at it and isn't a knob will do alright here in the end....

Yep. Just recently I saw an OP leave after asking a question on the fora and getting the same smart arse replies and in jokes by those who are apparently ever so lovely.

I think it's a shame that people can't post and ask questions that, fair enough, might have been asked before. No thread is truly original, even this one there's been a version of tonks ago. Oh and the bloody "some women/men/people/aliens do, some don't" line. Clearly they want personal opinions and are trying to encourage a conversation on a topic that interests them. Your lines are banal and shitty and a way of shutting the OP down because often the second/third poster sets the tone to a thread.

My very first post was just an introductory message, basically saying hi. I was immediately taken to task at calling myself a Tgirl and a crossdresser by another Tgirl.

I discovered the block button not long after, as she was quite a popular girl on the forums a few others chipped in as well, so if I remembered that initial thread and the effect it had on me, I always try and be kind to those who are entering the scary world of the forums

I like to think I only really get wound up, with those that deserve it

I never went in the forums much before lockdown but I've started to a bit since.

I have to say I haven't noticed too much negativity in any of the threads that I've been involved in.

In fact compared to what goes on elsewhere online most people here seem very well natured.

This thread is a good example.

Maybe I'm just not going to the right threads or I haven't been here long enough...?

I have to say i don't think the forums are as bad as people are making out to be honest.

Yes their are shitty comments and in jokes but on the whole people are friendly.

I will say a lot of recent threads have been the same 8 or 9 people replying to eachother and everyone else ignored.

But genuinely speaking the forums are friendly so anyone reading this and thinking "christ I'm never commenting" join in and fun.

What are you really fearing though? Rejection by others who don't know you based in one comment? Isn't everyone else the same with their insecurities? I think staying positive on the forum works wonders, both in outlook and content.....

That's because of whats inside your mind not what others are thinking. Just be you and let them appreciate you.....

No not at all. I am referring to serious threads as well as the fun ones.

Certainly not a woe is me comment. Just feel it best to say nothing "

Why? Someone might be waiting for your comment to lift them up or make them feel brave enough to contribute themselves? I get all sorts of pm's like this - just wish more ppl would feel brave enough to put it in public....

"I have to say i don't think the forums are as bad as people are making out to be honest.

Yes their are shitty comments and in jokes but on the whole people are friendly.

I will say a lot of recent threads have been the same 8 or 9 people replying to eachother and everyone else ignored.

But genuinely speaking the forums are friendly so anyone reading this and thinking "christ I'm never commenting" join in and fun.

This^"

We agreed on something else last week too. Let's not spoil things and make this a habit

Oh I don't fear the wrath, we can all have differing opinions, that is healthy. I just can't be arsed with the potential wrath. I have other more important things in my life that require my time.

Well this warms my cockles

There has been many a time I have had to shut threads or tell people to stop with what they call "banter" when a newbie has posted a thread. It is only banter if the person is joining in, once you realise those people are getting upset with what is being written and it doesn't stop you then you are looking like a nasty poster and people have been banned for it.

The OP and others make some great points, lets not put new or even older posters off by telling them it is a silly question or something you are bored of seeing. A person who is new won't know what has been posted before.

The forum is for all of us, everyone is welcome , everyone is welcome to post what they want within forum rules. No one poster decides what others can post

For the future...calling it out on a thread is a good thing and report too if a mod hasn't seen it please

i do agree with you OP a bit.

if someone is a lurker they maybe a little to nervous to post.

what i will say is that sometimes i get a random message from someone saying thanks for a comment ive made or they have agreed with.

im sure many of you get the same.

its very easy to mistake banter for something a bit more sinister

I love the wit and banter shown on the forum. And I thank it's evident if meant in a light way.

I sometimes crease and definitely lol. But, just sometines some replies are just one up manship and insensitive trying to get one up on the OP or another poster.

I'll like you in that I can be a bit smart arsey ish in my humour, but I’d hope I never upset someone as that’s never my intention either.

Have to agree with the op

Ive seen it and witnessed it often and had it myself.

ignored, taken the piss out of there postings.

All because im an outsider hardly post in the forums.

However ive sent many a valentines post to many on the forums over the years they know who I am.

They never expected such a nice message and more so from an outsider like me

Normally I post weather many like it or not.

But to many you scare them off the site thinking what the hell.

I enjoy the forums, the slight anarchic flavour they can have sometimes and the tangents a thread can go off in. I might be guilty of making a smart arse comment here and there on some threads (sometimes I'll do it to bump a 0 reply thread from page 2).

Generally I'll post the first thing which pops into my head after reading the title and/or the first post.

I think for a newbie on any internet forum you have to roll with some of the punches but the moderation here is about right and if a thread gets too abusive it gets closed by the mods.

Too anyone who feels discouraged from posting I would say stick with it and keep posting.

This for me.

Just do your own thing...do you. We all make the forum go round and are noticed by others even if you don't think so xx

I'm new

It's like I've known you forever "

"Pisses me of when someone may not me popular but comes to the forum for some help, advice and they get attacked belittled and probably won't ever come back because of it. And they only wanted to open a dialogue!

Maybe they don't kmow to draft a question to your tastes!.

The question can be innocuous but something the replies make the op feel like shit!

A harmless question turns to anger and ugliness..that's a sad day for me"

Sadly it's nothing new, been like that as long as I remember. It is one of fabs many hallmarks.

Rarely comment comment of certain forums because of that.

It's hard to find supportive posts other than those from the popular ones. Often questions are met with crass degradation making the OP feel they don't belong. I'm yet to be convinced of the saying that fabbers are inclusive, like hell they are.

Yesterday (or the day before - I can't remember) was the first time looked at the forum in at least six months and I noticed how many shitty messages like OP was talking about.

People just seem to hang around too much, get annoyed with the same newbie messages, then forget their manners or get some weird inflated opinion of themselves.

I didn't hang around long.

"I'm not saying it's wright but Just to be devil's advocate some times it might be they way someone phrases something that can cause offence or some times it can be asking a question that's been asked so many times that push some people over the edge. Equally Sometimes the responder might not have meant it the way others have read it.

"

Being a truck driver and being a member of a few truckers Facebook groups, I see this all too often, the majority of times though, the OP will post something to deliberately stir the shit (what's the best sat nav, how many hours can I work before needing a break for the working time directive, and how long do I need to take) but there's also newbies in there asking legitimate new driver questions, and they end up feeling like they've been ass fucked by king Kong ??

To be honest it's not a Fab thing - it's an internet forum thing, have been involved in a few in my time and not just "sex" related and they're all the same, and populated by the same character types, and problems.

For "Shaven or hairy?" read "What's your favourite single?" for "Am I bi?" read "How many times have you seen them?" etc - and you get those that reply with "How many times do we have to have this?"

And in some ways it's just a reflection of society generally, it's just magnified because it's words and because some people do get "brave" from behind a keyboard.

It doesn't make it acceptable of course, but until people are more inclusive (and not just to their own little group) and more tolerant of others or those who hold different opinions then sadly it will continue - all we each can do, as individual users, is try to remember we were newbies once, or we asked a daft question once, or asked something that had been asked before and try and be welcoming regardless.

Yup. I saw one guys thread get completely derailed with the pisstakes

I tried to turn it around but I fear the damage had been done and not seen the guy post since

One starts, others join in thinking it looks funny or clever, it doesn't, it looks ugly and sad.

I started a thread once and someone started to piss about trying to derail it with their flirting, that can look as bad as bullying especially when it is out of thread context

I think it is easy to forget that these words are written by real people. Kindness costs nothing, empathy

I try to be inclusive and supportive, will post on an empty thread if I see it and try to acknowledge people. Easy to forget we were all new once.

And we mustn't forget there are some amazing people on the forums as well as the smart arses

One other thing I've noticed the worst of it seems to be in The Lounge - while it *can* happen in the other areas, I notice threads tend to mostly stay on track and uninterrupted there and there is possibly less of the snide stuff - in fact I'd go as far as to say the "regulars" there are different from The Lounge too.

It's called Negging and yes it's rather immature at best, but it is a form of bullying sadly overlooked by many.

I gave up reporting forum stuff too because it only backfires.

Irish forum is worse.

A report can't backfire. If however you reported something and the mod found you breaking rules too then it would be a ban for you too

On that note maybe time to close

Lets all remember the forum is for all, not just the select few. If someone isn't enjoying your "banter" then please stop rather than keep on upsetting people
