FabSwingers.com forum: bitching and sniping

By (user no longer on site) OP

In the forums the past few days all i have saw is bitching,sniping and people goading people on ( i'm not saying i'm whiter than white)

could we just take a step back and if you are going to type something that may seem tongue in cheek, might not be construed as the same to them!

if you have nothing nice to say zip it and dont say nothing at all.

sorry if this offends but some of the shit i have saw recently in here has made my blood boil

Harassment can be via here, as well as in person and some people cant always take a joke or comment

I'm not trying to be argumentative so I apologise in advance if my reply comes across in this way.

If some people cant take a joke or comment though should they not post in the first place? It's like asking for someone's opinion about a subject and then not liking their answer in my eyes?

I agree with any nastyness thats posted as we can all disagree but do it in a nice way!

I just dont agree with not being able to take a joke or comment thats all

I'm waffling now so I will shut up!!!

I don't like to see it, and I sometimes read between the lines and pick up on the tone. Usually I'll chuck a patent Wolf Red Herring in...

My Grans motto was 'if ya can't say nothing good about anyone, say nothing at all' too... spot on there Jacqs. These days though there's an opinion for everything, even opinions...

i would like to state there is a differece between goading/sniping/bullying and constructive critisicm, that if taken the correct way, would have improved the legibility of someones posts, but was taken the wrong way completely.

I did .... it made me think too . Words can cutt like a kife at times .. and play on people minds and thay can end up doing all sorts to themselfs .. New laws are coming in to stop some of this going on .

Doesn't that statement fly in the face of what you said about zipping it if you've nothing nice to say?

I take umbrage with someone telling me not to use the site if what I want to say isn't sugar covered and is the melt in your mouth type goo you find on the 'Would you...above' threads.

True, but some people find offence not because of what was said but who was saying it.

if you have nothing nice to say zip it and dont say nothing at all.

ah..

'free speech' is ok if some agree with what or how others opinions are..?

so when someone posts something pretty offensive as has happened, the response should be...well what exactly?

may as well close all the forums now then..

mods patrol and there is a report button. Bitching does not have to be aimed at you to report it. Take action if you do not like it and FAB will deal with it.

I agree. If you report a post if a mod has missed it goes straight to Admin who check it out.

As Be nice says, it doesn't have to be something against yourself....if you think something is going on just report.

The best thing to do is do what Admin ask on the top of the rules and you won't go far wrong ( pasted below )

In summary: If you treat other people with respect, you can't go far wrong. Don't forget that the forums are meant to be fun, if you find yourself fuming and writing long angry messages you're probably best taking a break from it.

Now I am sure the thread was posted with good intentions but these type of threads have a habit of turning sour...and as I have had to remove posts already, for ironically being bitchy and nasty, then I am going to shut this.
