How often do you feel this with people on fab?

In the forums?

Is there anyone at all where no matter what they do or write you just think I don't get you, you don't hit it off with them, you clash maybe?

Or their writing style just confuses you or sounds ridiculous or makes you cringe? Or you just think they are an utter twat and regularly face palm on sight of them and their words?

Do you try to get past it? Or try to talk to them?

No naming names!!

I try and stay away from the serious threads, gets a bit too geeky.

You're always going to get clashes of personalities though, plus it's easy to misinterpret comments on the forums and get all mardy. Such is life.

There are a handful of people I've disagreed with on here on particular topics but on other issues their opinions have aligned with mine so I've no issue with them at all.

Others however that I've never directly engaged with do get on my wick simply because of their cuntish behaviour.

Some of those give me that impression because of the way they pander and simp at every opportunity and don't seem to have an opinion they can call their own.

Yeah, I definitely do and I'm finding myself more and more irritated by some of the people just falling into the Fab clichés both in terms of forum content and profile bios as well. When I'm in that mindset of irritation, I just ignore it all and lurk until I'm in a better headspace or if I really feel I can't get on with them, just ignore them altogether.

I used to get sucked in by obvious rage-bait opinions too but trying to not do that more and more.

Yep, this. I mean sure, sometimes I'm not particularly fond of how someone posts. Sometimes I think 'this thread isn't for me' and I don't comment on it. We're all different and probably all a minor irritation to others on here.

There are some on here that I don’t particularly like or I know I won’t get on with so I don’t interact with them. It’s to be expected when there’s so many different personalities in one place. If it got to the point I was getting angry at the sight of them I’d probably take a break.

In general not many I don't get except the odd 1 or 2 who deliberately want to cause shit under the guise of I love everyone and I'm amazing..

There are threads I’ll avoid, others I’ll get involved in and that can be because if I’ve got nothing to say I’ll pass on by.

There are certain people who will say things to create attention or controversy and depending on my mood will depend if I interact.

Overall most people seem okay

The thing is everyone will make someone else cringe and eye roll and say for fucks sake under their breath.

There's a lot of people ( I mean a lot) that I don't particularly like on here, but I'm well aware they probably don't like me either. And I'd kinda miss their little egos if they left.

The people I like and those I dont are what make it slightly more interesting than browing pinterest.

I don't think liking someone on here, means you reply to them lots. I rarely interact with you on the forum, but I genuinely like how you post and often agree with what you say. Though I don't that comes across on the forum

No, that usually is based around whether they have a vagina or not.

Popularity on here has absolutely no value, people seem to consider it such a prized asset but memories are short and it conveys no status

I've just spent a few days away from fab and the forums to get away from the shit I've seen on some posts. It's not a case of not getting some people, but of being able to see exactly who they are. There's genuine and normal people here who are great. There are people who put up an act that you can see right through but are kind of an ironic source of entertainment. Lastly, there's a small few who are just so repulsive and ruin what should be a fun place. Those are the ones who make me take time away before I end up lowering myself to their level.

There's a few people that I feel utterly disconnected from and I don't generally want to directly engage with.

But that doesn't mean they're bad or wrong or anything. And I'm happy to have a variety of people around.

Doesn't bother me in the least tbh , life way too short for anything like that, everyone is entitled to say or write whatever they want , if l see a post or thread or a reply that l don't agree with for whatever reason l just pass it by , sometimes l had a reply all written out and before l posted it l just deleted it ,now l just pass.. whatever a person writes here doesn't bother me in the least .

The echo chamber is what annoys me. The people who you can tell what their opinion will be because you read their favourite person say it three replies beforehand.

In general I read the words without judging the person. It's what is said that I respond to. I don't spend time analysing and categorising personalities that I will never meet. So it is possible that I would respond to writing by a person that I have nothing in common.

There are a handful of people that , over time, I have grown to 'know' and could attribute their writing to them even if their name wasn't on it and it's possible to feel warmth toward them whether I agree with their sentiment or not.

I just pass the time on here. Not interested in egos, arrogance or the ocassional abuse that some seem to thrive on and they are definately ignored even if they post a personal responce. If I connect with someone, I do that privately. I don't like the herd mentality sometimes displayed and some people can be very btutal to others for their own personal gratification. Having said that I love interacting with some people, even of their opinions are different as they express them in an appropriate manner.

"I get disliking someone for them saying things you find detestable but disliking someone for the way they type or how much they type or whatever? It’s not that deep

I don't know....some people constantly type how perfect they are and their sex life is and their life......that pisses people off.

I'm a true believer in you getting what you focus on.

We're on this earth for a limited time, and I couldn't ever imagine getting pissed off with someone for finding happiness. I'd rather celebrate that than push it away.

I guess we each find our own.

Spot on. If we only could apply this daily!

Perhaps I’m a bit weird in that I try to see different things from other people’s perspectives and seek to understand before being understood. In that way I very rarely find myself in a situation where I don’t get or understand people.

Whether I like that viewpoint or agree is a completely different matter

I saw that comment more about people boasting of how well they're doing on threads that are about coping with not doing well. Seen multiple examples of that this week. I'm quite happy for people. Don't think they need to rub it in when some of those here are struggling.

I haven't seen those threads, although I'm not on the forums a great deal these days.

I would like to think if I were struggling, and others were posting in this vein, I would see them as glimmers of hope that things can be different.

Perspective is all important.

It goes to show how we each bring different perspectives to conversation and how contextually words can be interpreted differently.

Sending love to anyone who needs it right now

"How often do you feel this with people on fab?

In the forums?

Is there anyone at all where no matter what they do or write you just think I don't get you, you don't hit it off with them, you clash maybe?

Or their writing style just confuses you or sounds ridiculous or makes you cringe? Or you just think they are an utter twat and regularly face palm on sight of them and their words?

Do you try to get past it? Or try to talk to them?

No naming names!! "

There is a fair few yes.

Not bothered if people do not get me. As long as they are respectful and polite. If not, I just block without engaging.
