Is there strange/odd threads lately, or is it me?

Can we just respectfully talk about some of the strangeness I've seen.

I know women on this forum, have genuinely expressed some thoughts.

Here's what I've noticed, maybe you have too?

-Many new accounts, little to zero profile info

-New people to the forum...no intro....just straight into a.) overly-sexualized post b.) long, weird font c.) argumentative/no hope/hate/multiple personalities

Thoughts?

  • Yes. There are definitely profiles that come and go. I have also noticed that many replies get deleted. I understand that the poster can do this, is that correct ? I mean completely remove a reply as if it never occurred ? Also I have just received an alert telling me that my post created has been reported as spam or abuse and removed when I did not create the discussion. I simply replied to it but absolutely could never be taken as a abuse or spam.  In either case, I'm sorry to say, that the forum is badly managed and run. There doesn't seem to be anyone here on a regular basis that knows the forum or can deal with anything. Everything seems to be expected to run by itself. I appreciate that the pm facility was eventually sorted but the whole technical side could do with an overhaul and someone should be here as a mod on a regular basis. 

  • someone should be here as a mod on a regular basis.

    If you look at the traffic on this site I'd be guessing at less than 200 total posts per day-  that's not enough to pay someone to look after it - we are a tiny forum with very few active regulars.

  • You mean 200 visitors not posts I'm presuming ?

  • I have compassion for those with mental illnesses that are such that they have other conditions-not just ASD. However, many people come here delicate. I see other users get deleted. I just would like to know there is 100% fairness here.

  • What's reporting as abusive got to do with the OP?       What's it to do with site traffic levels?

    Report one of your own posts - then you can see for yourself what happens - but why would you want to cause trouble for yourself?

    As for people dominating the forum, someone already tries to do that - with inane responses to every single post.       Personally, I don't understand the need to do that on a tiny site like this.
