What do you hate most about other forums

Guys,

Not looking for a bashing session, just curious of some of the things you do not like at other forums? Not really looking for names, just some of the things inside you do not like.

Dr. Jack

Most forums have jealousy feuds. Would be nice to never have that in here. Holding my breath! GR

You can anticipate that it will happen here to a certain extent. How much is really dependent on the posters. If you participate and react, you are doing exactly what they want....giving them attention.

The correct response is to ignore them. ITI.....Ignore The Idiotic. If they don't get the attention they crave, they will just go away.

A lot of the bigger forums I do not like to post cause to much overall BS. You can't even speak your mind when it's a book or service that pays them advertising money.

That does seem to happen on a lot of sites. You will find we have a different outlook here. We try to be supportive of each other. If someone does get out of hand...and it is bound to happen...we all plan on ignoring the foolishness. With no one to play with....they will go away.

As long as we all work at it..it will stay that way Smitty...

You can expect some nastiness at times though....can't help it.

But...we can control it when it happens.

Take care.

You know what drives me crazy on alot forums is when senior members shoot down newby opinions,even if they are good ones. H ow many times have you read " you are just a junior member with an agenda" Just because one is a junior member on one forum doesn't mean he is not a senior member on another. Just my 2cents.

Everybody has pretty well covered it. This is the first forum I've actually posted on because the members are actually civil. We all have questions and opinions and it's nice to have a place to ask them or reveal them without being verbally attacked. We can disagree without being disagreeable. I'm glad to be here and hope to learn a lot from you guys.
