Do you like to “People watch” on Fab : ie do you notice some of the little behaviours you sometimes see or the games that are playing out?
I sometimes smile when I see a thread where a male OP only ever replies to any women replying on their thread and ignores all the men (keep your eye out, it happens often!)
What other behaviours do you notice on Fab?
It’s a psychologists dream on here, I’m sure! |

The people that are secretly fucking.
The ones that portray a "good guy" image but their messages say different.
The desperados willing to fuck anyone.
The attention seekers.
The ones that talk to the talk but clearly aren't getting any.
The ones that don't like me, I came back for you guys
Nah I don't really people watch.... |

All the time. It’s good fun. You kinda know who’s who and what’s going on after a while. Or at least I have my interpretation of it. Which is probably funnier than the real deal. |

Yes on the forums I may post a lot but I read a lot more than I post
Some topics don’t take my interest but that dosent mean I haven’t read the topic top to bottom |

It's a great place for people watching...or at least it used to be, I'm not on here often enough to even recognise most people these days. Nowadays it's mainly something to do while I'm half listening to boring conference calls at work.
I wasn't often wrong about who was shagging who though, even if they were apparently keeping it quiet. And some of the ridiculously petty and childish behaviour used to greatly amuse me |

I log in a dozen times a day for 5 mins at a time so an hour in total.
I only use the forums and I'm always amazed at the number of people who say they don't notice red flags or aren't aware of the "games" when it's all right there in front of them between forum comments, status conversations and verifications.
You don't even have to dig too deep for the drama highlights.

Ha ha. I was going to do this a few days ago. Mirror a thread posted by a woman who was caught cheating, but I thought what's the point? This is fab, I already know the outcome.

The op and the copy cat poster
Op posts a post
Someone comments something
No reply no nothing
Copy cat comes in 2 hours late
Basically says the exact same thing as a person above
Op and copy cat go on to have a full blown conversation
Copy cat wouldn’t have had that meteral if they hadn’t read it before up the top

There are lots of behaviours some more noticeable than others.
Bat shit crazy soon shows itself regardless of the copious amounts of blowing smoke up folk’s arses they do on the forum. The end result can be quite spectacular.
I just love those that take great pleasure in making themselves look whiter than white when in fact they’re doing or have done the thing they’re condemning.
The ones that log in just to vent. Being online when you’re not in a good headspace and becoming a keyboard warrior never ends well.
The list goes on………. |

'Important' people forgetting that what they write can be remembered and retrieved years later is why I love Twitter. The whole 'This you' phenomenon is just calling out blatant hypocrisy.
To some extent I suppose the same thing happens here, but I have more sympathy for ordinary people, trying to say 'the right thing' to gain a little kudos. Whatever. We all wear masks of one kind or another. Even to ourselves. And most especially those of us who claim the most vociferously that we don't. |

Some people's turn of phrase I like reading & find amusing.
Other people I can tell who is writing, without glancing at the profile pic, because they'll interject with the same subject matter, despite the thread topic. |

Generally the only people watching I do these days is to see how quickly those that go UNLOS reappear in the forums.
Often they'll be posting on a new profile mere days after the old vanishes, which means they already had the shiny new one sat waiting.
I've still not worked out why they bother, when there's a perfectly functioning 'hide your profile' button.

I'm interested in opinions and the people and thinking behind them. After 15 years here, people come and go and games and silly motivations aren't that incredible though. I stay focused more on why I'm here and my objectives |

I don't really notice much. I see some patterns of behaviour from different posters but everyone has their own style which can only be a good thing as it would be boring otherwise. I'm a bit sadistic and do like the wind up merchants just to see all hell break loose |

I try and answer people in threads I make regardless of sex or orientation. But it’s hard to answer everyone and keep track of things when the conversation gets going. Plus I’m easily distracted.
Also yeah I read some threads and don’t respond. |

Oh yes! It definitely is a psychologist's dream. I bet there's a university department, probably Australian, just watching everything for a major study!
The men who can't talk to men do make me laugh (see also the 'send a nice message' threads, where they couldn't possibly send a message to a man!), but also the guys who reply to EVERY woman telling her she has the best tits/ass he's ever seen or words to that effect: they surely can't fancy EVERYONE?? |

Absolutely I do!
It used to be entertaining, engaging, fun and …. Oh yes… at times a great place to attract the eye of some sexy hunk amongst the forums. My people watching days have turned into tutting and eye rolling moments OFTEN. There used to be some absolutely corking people using the forums, most of them have left or become lurkers (with the exception of those who still use it as an aggression sparing exercise)
It’s become less people watching and more about how much diatribe people will actually put up with.
It’s more definitely more greasy spoon coffee than Costa! |

The people condemning others for doing things they themselves are guilty of or have instigated must be hoping that everyone on here either have the memory capacity of a goldfish or don't have any friends.
The strangest part of all that is most of these people have amazing profiles and pics and based on looks alone would never have an issue getting repeat meets here.
The problem is their own insecurity, jealousy and need for validation and they don't seem to understand why that puts others off meeting then a second time. |

Of course, but for SOME men attraction doesn’t matter as long as they get to fuck someone so they won’t lessen their chances!

I used to find it all quite entertaining, like a soap opera. Sometimes I'd have to remind myself that people on the forums are real people. Although I'm sure some people are characters.
Recently, I've not had time to log in as much so I've probably missed loads of gossip. |

For sure I'm a people watcher. I rarely contact (message) anyone directly as I am looking for something that suggests I may be the person they are looking for. Been here previously and know I am unlikely to get responses to random messages

Virtue signaling is rife, even amongst those that deny it
Cliques actually are a natural phenomenon ... those in them always deny (or unaware) only negative (or noticed) if you're not in them
It's the contradictions that make me laugh most! People do forget what they've said where (so not always that honest huh)

I tend to think lots of people are talking in private. I think people might actually like being a bit more open in Dms than having the whole site/forum judge them. Just adding some thought to what you just said. |

Seems like a lot of work; I just read the OP, then I either think of a way to say the word 'dong' in a response or make a thinly-veiled suggestion that I'm going to touch tips with some guy called BanDerks.
Sometimes I do both and can log off happy.
Then I get back to... whatever the fuck it is I do with my life?
Oh, and then a cat emoji, just for the goofs.

I actually enjoy seeing the teasing and friendship between people here. I know some people dislike the in-jokes and the "clique" but there are people who seem to genuinely like each other here. |

Trying to keep their options open in the forums I guess? What I’m referring to is actually not evening engaging in forums. Then messaging.

To me it’s a strong indication of something very important. If someone can’t even interact in the forums sure as hell they won’t be comfortable with me in public. And that’s an absolute non negotiable.
And I deserve credit for using the word duplicitous on a Monday morning |

Yes I people watch on here. I find it quite interesting. There's a wide array of people and little groups on here.
You have the men who will agree with any woman no matter what she says,the people who attack any man who dates to go against the grain and voice his opinion,the women who actually believe they are fab elite and their word should be taken as law and of course the ones who follow them and will back them up regardless of how rude they are. You have the shit stirrers behind the scenes who hide behind fake nice personalities ,you have the ones who pop in and out and don't take fab too seriously,the lurkers,the newbies who get told join in the forum's they are so friendly,then every comment they make gets ignored by the so called friendly crew.The trolls,the fake reoccurring women accounts,the ones who swear the forum's were way more fun before,the ones who have made friendships and interact with those friends,the cliques who think they rule as well and will hound others off here if they can,the ones who are used as puppets for others dirty work or just to post threads because they don't want to,and many many more.
It's a great place to people watch and see it all. People may come and go but the forum's remain virtually the same with the same dynamics just different people doing them .

Trying to keep their options open in the forums I guess? What I’m referring to is actually not evening engaging in forums. Then messaging.

I think it's fairly obvious some posters are inclined to agree and disagree with certain other posters regardless of their actual opinion. Most entertaining when they contradict themselves on the sane thread |

Goodness, no thank you. My ex-wife is on this thread. Never again.
Actually, a future ex-wife is also on this thread. Never say never.
[P.S. And yes, I'm replying to a woman on here but that was 'consciously intentionally'] x

Happens a fair amount, the times I've been completely blanked on threads on my other profile but private messages sent were the total opposite, mind bending

I don’t know any of the posters on fab. Never met any. Probably never will. Some observations -
There are some sheep on here. Like the whole ‘cake’ thing. That was just dull.
Women tend to be fawned over. Just because they are female.
I definitely think it’s clique.
People post self depreciating comments which are clearly not true in order to gain attention.
There seems to be more and more bickering lately. People seem to be annoyed / angered by things most couldn’t give a flying fcuk about.
I also can’t believe the number of people that are taken in by the trolls.
The forums used to be more fun imo. Now they seem a bit more toxic.
I’m not a big poster but more an occasional one. I can see myself visiting the forums less and less.

"It's a great place for people watching...or at least it used to be, I'm not on here often enough to even recognise most people these days. Nowadays it's mainly something to do while I'm half listening to boring conference calls at work.
I wasn't often wrong about who was shagging who though, even if they were apparently keeping it quiet. And some of the ridiculously petty and childish behaviour used to greatly amuse me
Okay who am I shagging then? I’m game for a laugh.

Finally, this is where we start the campaign to bring back 'Going for Gold'. Not a moment too soon! |

I loved how international it was with the Channel Islands categorised as abroad |

"And I thought that I was an over thinker, shhhheeezus.
The forum is just somewhere to socialise without having to get off the sofa, no?"
Yes!
And no.

Does this mean people don't reply to your comments?
I'm shit at going back to threads sometimes. When more than 1 person replies to a comment I made I don't know how to respond so I tend to not reply at all. |

While I agree about how easily people are trolled they do have a target audience and rarely fail to hit their mark.
There are also different degrees of trolling.
It's always assumed that trolls are just pop-up profiles who launch grenades but many of them are established fabbers who like to snipe a little at a time.
The other thing about trolls is that regardless of the angle of approach, they aren't always wrong. |
