"You are right and to be fair it used to bother me a little. Now I totally ignore all those keen to cause issues or are full on with their opinions or aggressive to anyone. A little banter is fine, arguments and negative attitudes are not. Not for me anyway. I come here to distress, have a bit of banter and sometimes learn something useful as often some very knowledgeable and helpful people on here. Obviously not sure exactly what you are referring to but please don't let it bother you. " Nothing specific, just noticed it in general. I'm the same as you, got more than enough stuff going on in the RW without getting drawn into an argument with some random stranger x | |||

"I am a lot more ignorant of negativity on here now, comments that used to rile me are passed over, I did consider if that made me less caring not to stand up for the things I believe in. But then I realise I'm just not partaking in feeding the trolls so I settled down again "I sing to myself...."walk on by" | |||

"Isn't this thread the very definition of negativity? In a way yes, all depends how you look at it I guess." I am not sure it is unless it gets taken over by arguments and disrespectful comments. Thete is a clear fifference between opinion, arguments and abusive comments. Give me opinions any time as I may learn something but keep the rest as I am not here for that. Each to their own I suppose. | |||

"I was just saying to someone how the forums used to be funny a lot of the time. There were still arsey people and a few haters, but they didn't ruin every thread with their negativity (yes, I'm aware this is a negative comment). I think people come here to vent their spleen now. " I had the same conversation with a fellow fab member yesterday. | |||

"It never used to be like this; back in the day. Before the advent of Soshal Meedja and the anonymity of facepage, Shitter, SickTok etc when people had to be negative in person it was a far more civil world (give or take a few wars). But we cannot live in the past. There may have been a time when people were allowed to hold differing views but now there is only right and wrong - and if they don't agree with you; they are WRONG. " I disagree. | |||

"The last two years have been doom, gloom and stress for most of us. A lot of people have changed and have suffered quite a lot. I know it's not right to take frustrations out on others but I understand a lot of negativity comes from that. We all need to be a little compassionate and kind to each other even more so when it's clear that person is in pain. We never know what someone's going through so take a breath, step back and don't pour petrol on the fire. " Exactly. Branding it negativity because it's a differing view is the actual negativity. Also; quite often it's just stuck on any view that someone doesn't agree with. A way of silencing. I've seen lots of posts made by various posters that are disparaging of others. You can't really ask for compassion, understanding that you have things going on in the real world and not afford that to others. Well, you can.
And yes, there were the halcyon days - be part of bringing that back. Inject some humour. Show compassion. Understand we're all different.

"Perhaps if people stopped bringing others down with negative comments on how other people chose to run there profiles there wouldn’t be so much negativity here, every other day there’s a thread about what’s acceptable to show and not show and the comments seem to come in the form of judgement - pisses me right off! Just because you wouldn’t do something or you don’t share the same kinks/thoughts or what not doesn’t warrant a bitchy comment aimed at another poster, plenty of room for all kinds here! "Agreed! To much of that! Although it washes over me! X | |||

That's a debate, not negativity. " I said quite often it's stuck on differing views. Yes, there are posters who are talking explicitly about negativity. These threads tend to crop up when there's a "cause" in another thread or two. I do think that people as a whole are more prone to negativity with everything that's gone on - the fora are a reflection of the general zeitgeist so it's not surprising. I think that given the cyclic nature of them, things will be on the up one day. Maybe. | |||

"Just to be clear the negativity I was referring too was when things get personal. Prime example of a thread yesterday, the OP became quite derogatory towards others re looks and what not.....that's the kind of negativity I mean." I didn't see that thread. I know I can have a dark sense of humour at times but attacking someone's looks just seems juvenile. Love and hugs | |||
