Exactly this!! If a thread is about a social then people talk about said social, if it a kiss fuck whatever thread then it's a bitta fun!!
When a serious topic is posted then generally there are some decent replies
Like I said, forums are what you make of them and if you want to post serious topics and have a debate then work away. People interested in the topic will post! "That's it in a nutshell lolli. | |||

"I enjoy reading the Duffer is a king type of thread too even though im not involved (wouldn't expect to be as im fairly new and its mates having a laugh).. But sure this was meant to be a debate about the forums and already some in here making a mockery of it. Don't see people going into the banter threads and being over the top serious. Look around at the last 30 threads or so. Most of them have been 'banter threads' pretty much about the same topic or people. Any decent topic gets ignored or even worse derailed. This wasn't aimed at anyone in particular but trying to open debate. Yet the banter brigade are out to make sure nothing changes eh..." Well sure put up a serious thread then, or is that someone else's job? | |||

I've been on and off Fab over 3 years now but only joined in on Forum discussions a few months ago. I wasn't aware of any "cliques" or bullies just lots of different people with different opinions interacting with one another (I can see why Sydney University are riveted). We won't always see eye to eye (and rudeness should not be condoned under any guise). However as it's been said before on both this thread and those before; forum is what you make of it, nothing more, nothing less. Kinda like life. So if forum gives you lemons make lemoncello! (Alcoholic lemonade for the adults) and organise a party! Way too many glasses half empty! Even if your glass is near the bottom it's still better than nothing. As for feeling left out I think that's more about 'more regular users' and not so regular users rather than cliques or the belief that some are intent on creating Elitism school yard hierarchies.

I wasn't aware of any "cliques" or bullies just lots of different people with different opinions interacting with one another (I can see why Sydney University are riveted). We won't always see eye to eye (and rudeness should not be condoned under any guise). However as it's been said before on both this thread and those before; forum is what you make of it, nothing more, nothing less. Kinda like life. So if forum gives you lemons make lemoncello! (Alcoholic lemonade for the adults) and organise a party! Way too many glasses half empty! Even if your glass is near the bottom it's still better than nothing. As for feeling left out I think that's more about 'more regular users' and not so regular users rather than cliques or the belief that some are intent on creating Elitism school yard hierarchies.

"Thanks for the great response mefor.. Just to point out a few things (well re-emphasis them): 1. I don't feel left out on the forums. I understand people who are here longer, meet socially or have sex either each other will have their own little group. Tis expected. 2. I do enjoy a good banter thread and having a laugh so no issues there 3. I just think the forum and any decent subject gets derailed very quickly by a number of members. They should have respect to stay out of some threads that are more discussion oriented. 4. I also think alot of regular members could do more to be more friendly to others. Would make for a better place. 5. Im not alone in thinking this and I've had a number of messages from people saying they feel the same 6. This isn't an attack on anyone just a discussion " See this is where I find it difficult to agree. It's not "your thread" it's a public open discussion (that you started yes). But often they can go off in a tangent (like most normal conversations in life, maybe that's a nordy thing too! We start off with what's for dinner and end up discussing aunt flo's halitosis! Just snowballs!) for example a regular forum poster commented on my post about the lemoncello and Italy. Should they have sent that as a private pm? So as not to digress from the original topic and "derail it"? I think the poignancy would be lost, don't you? At some stage it would become ridiculous and people just wouldn't bother posting. I know I wouldn't. In some ways I actually feel that a detour can be good! I like mystery tours in life (it's how you get to know peoples character). On a thread of yours a might feel that I shouldn't post if it doesn't relate directly to your topic. Where's the open forum freedom there? I've started several threads here (mostly for "Banter" yes) never once taken umbrage that someone else goes off in a different direction. Not my place to because it's not my thread to control or dictate.  | |||

"Don't get me wrong i enjoy a a bit of a laugh and banter as much as the next person (generally catch me talking rubbish in the chatroom) but would be nice to get some decent discussion or debates on the forums.. Find it difficult to take much from here 90% of the time. *Queue those within the clique to take this as a attack from a newbie* Really just opening it up for debate to try add to the place tbh You are right there's probably only 10 to 15 on here that dominate the forums they all seem like they know each other's and well it's like there own wee playroom. god forbid anyone else would have a opinion but if they do it's shot down or ignored. If your not in the crowd your not getting in. " Totally agree , it's really off putting atm !! | |||

"I think Mefor and roundandround summed it up pretty well tbh I like the forum as I simply like chatting to people and in the forum iget to chat to people that I may not even have known exist on the site otherwise and as an insomniac I'm often on late having a chat. I will happily chat with anyone on here and jump into a thread either because I feel I can add an opinion or join in the craic.i really am at a loss sometimes why people get so uptight if it goes a little of track.. or if people have got to know each other. . Or have an in joke (ps most of them are plain silly. .) But if ya want to know what it is why not ask?.... It's just if you weren't there it might not be funny to you . I do think sometimes people can be rude or snippy or way to personal...but i guess that says More about them and how they choose to interact..I choose to ignore it. Wouldn't it be nice on a site for people who are so often harshly judged by others if we were a little less judgemental to. . No? ? "Well said | |||

I don't accept your premise that it should change. You state that it's not friendly. I have always found it to be so. Maybe I don't expect people to just accept me before I've been here a while. As to content for everyone, start up whatever thread you want. If people want to read it then they'll post As the meerkat says......simples | |||

"Personally, I comment on threads in the forums that interest me, ones that don't, I read and don't partake. You're never going to have an interest in every thread so if it's not to your taste, don't continue reading it. The forums can be a lot of fun, but also quite nasty, I've certainly been on the receiving end of some nastiness here, I've learned to block and move on. Too many people come on here and say 'oh it's too intimidating to join in', I think that's rubbish, we were all new here once. I have also seen many threads where new people have started a thread introducing themselves to the forums and most of the regular forum users welcome them and say it's great to see new people here.

"I got 21 messages from different members thanking me for raising the subject about the forums... That in itself means its a worthwhile topic to discuss and there is a slight issue there... " the thing about it is, forums by their very nature will always have conflicting opinions, it is easy to say 'if you don't like it, don't comment on it' but surely forums are about debate, not just everyone holding hands and singing kumbaya round the campfire. There are always going to be different groupings and people that gravitate towards each other due to a shared sense of humour, or having met in real life etc etc. For anyone to say that the forum is all inclusive though I wouldn't agree with at all.

However out of interest how many of the 21 people who messaged you actually make an effort to join in, or have posted on threads? Wouldn't you have been better posting a thread with an actually subject content to debate rather than a thread that criticises the very people you wish to communicate and interact with? | |||

"I was off Fab for a while there and have noticed that the forums have changed a bit. But think that is because the social meets are happening more and therefore more people have met in 'real life' and chat among themselves more than possibly with others simply because they have met. I generally don't bother much with the forums now tbh as most are either people moaning about others and that bores me. New people join Fab every day and there are some strong personalities on here and that is good...as it keeps the craic going. Every forum topic does not interest me and if the topic is high jacked....so be it as......I wouldn't loose sleep over anything on Fab tbh. Ermmmmm well..........that is not strictly true as a hot guy did ignore my wink the other day....I cried for hours but I am over that now! lolol. Oh I do have to comment on another forum topic this morning..it is titled WOW and it is such an uplifting one that it really makes you glad to be alive and everyone is happy! Life is not great all the time and to get annoyed with Fab issues is really bottom of my list! Phew, I am tired after writing all that. Now to get back to important issues.... My main issue atm is that my hotlist has only 2 guys on it......I must be really fussy in my old age! Lol Remember all.....Fab is a sex site so please take care and play fair!

"I don't mean social etiquette though, I mean forum etiquette, ie. staying on topic, not using a thread to have a private conversation, writing clearly and making your post readable. These are the most basic ones that would solve most people's gripes with the forum. But you're right though, Redhott; people will use the forum as they wish. But they should at least know that they're bringing down the quality of other people's threads in doing so (which turns a lot of people off the forum). All you have to do is look up above me and you'll see Mefor and CJ having a nice little flirt. Yes, it's harmless. Yes, it's fun. Do 90% of us want to read it? No. I opened this thread to see a discussion about the state of the forum. So that's a perfect example of how people should use PM. The fact that I didn't even have to look outside this thread to show an example shows how common it is that it happens. And I hate calling people out by name, but it's there for all to see anyway so there was no point being ambiguous about it." So is this 'Phil' "I opened up the thread" or 'WantToOccupyYourMind' who clearly "Opened" the thread???? Do I smell a rat?? What was that Fab policy on having two profiles again??? Regardless of which one is really you are you seriously telling me (after 3 weeks or is it 5 weeks) that you have any say in when and where I post? Hmmmm I would tell you to go boil your head but that's probably for a cookery thread and off topic!!! | |||
