..in a general way by being here and how do you deal with it.

Involving something that is important to your principles.

Forget ratios as we have all encountered others on here.

I'll start you off:

I have learnt that my truth is often not others truth and their truth is weird.

It sometimes cracks me up and I find it hilarious.

Not everyone means what they say - most people can talk the talk but that's it.

How do I deal with it? Take none of it in any way seriously and assume everyone is full of shit until events prove otherwise!

People bite at the most obvious wind-ups going which leads to so much unnecessary arguing and sniping. It baffles how people don't realise that if they just ignore it and say nothing, it goes away.

you’re right, of course, we all think that we’re the sane ones and it’s everybody else that is slightly weird or wrong.

Like it’s other people’s houses that always have a bit of a smell about them but mine doesn’t.

And my decor is spot on but everyone else’s is, well, a bit off.

For example, I can’t fathom why my inbox isn’t dropping in pussy. It’s clearly all the women that are wrong!

Yep, seen a lot of that over the last week or so. I've typed out responses a couple of times only to think better of it and step away.

I value differing opinions and don't want to live in an echo chamber, but when someone is just trolling because they desperately crave any attention, even if it's negative, the forum would be much more fun if I could just hide their posts.

I've learned that people are flawed, inherently so. Every single person who posts on here is and sometimes these people have bad days. I've also learned that they are perfect in all their flawed ways. People are brilliant. Fascinating, complicated. Irritating yet heartwarming.

I didn't have much time for people before the forums, I preferred to keep my distance. Now, I don't actually mind them. I love some of them. For all the negativity that can crop up, the positivity outshines it and that's why I'm still on here.

Not necessarily from here but here and life in general.

I once believed that reasonable people would come down on the side of what is generally held as morally right over the years i've learned that people don't do that.

They are highly biased in their judgements and most (of either gender) are guided by looks, charm , sexual attraction or peer familiarity and not by what is just or fair.

Does it worry me ? Yes. It's too easy to say , 'Oh this is a sex site, things don't matter here.' I'd agree so far BUT on this forum is a section of wider society. How they behave here is how they behave outside / in life in general.

Scant morals when it comes to making decisions with fairness and thinking being applied less than meaningless tropes like .... well she's me babe innit. He's me mate. She's dead cute tho.....

Far too little thought and too much emotional knee jerk.

Too much belief in Social Media. Too much investment in materialism/consumerism and living via goods and image.

Friendships seem to be based on such superficial criteria rather than if your 'friend' has a sound sense of right and wrong and can be depended on to keep their word.
