Then go post on another board. Most of the people that regularly post on this board also post on other boards. So if you really think there is something you need to post that you think we could learn from, go post it on another board.
I do find it humorous that you like to complain about every board!!!
Don't confuse an honest observation with complaining or a direct personal attack.
That's your problem with teh X.
I am of the belief that if the trolling leaves we might actually attract more females.
What are the grounds for that belief? Very few people actually 'troll' here. Females are more likely to take cheap shots than men. ~flowjit~ just accused me of 'B*****ng". Had I said the same thing to her one of you could have complained, LOL! Yesterday Xlinda personally attacked Judi. True the thread was moved but plenty of women do mechanically release their stress so it's a bit of a surprise it can't be openly discussed here.
Who wants to post in a forum that you will get trolled or the information you put down will be used against you? This is the reputation Getbig has, a lot of men find it funny, but you would be hard pressed to find 1% of the females who do.
What a lot of people find funny is that adults have a difficult time expressing themselves in an environment where they aren't coddles. Bodybuilding is a male dominated sport so a bodybuilding site would naturally have more male posters.
Laura's edict is an extension of the direct requests and the indirect complaints and suggestions in posts of the users of this board.
There's a joke about women complaining a lot in there somewhere but I don't want to get off track.
Assuming your 'goal' is to make the forum better.... How exactly will less dialogue make the forum better?
Men and Women think and react differently to the same circumstances, it is a fact of life.
This isn't a circumstance, merely a few observations. Lighten up, a little. It is on-line, after all.
I notice you don't really answer direct questions, why is that?
Like I wrote a bit back. My curiosity is about the extent to which our on-line relationship difficulties reflect off-line pathology.
Lastly, John Gray is an unforgivable idiot. He offered a convenient excuse for relationship failure instead of actual communication tools.
