"Do you use the forums as a filtering tool ?  "
Not really 'cos I try not to meet people from the forums lol!!
But yes, it's as easy to decide you don't want to meet someone because of what they write as it is to decide you do!  |

Blocks from the forum are nothing to do with meet compatibility it's purely a way to say, you've said something and based on that I think you're a dick so I'm blocking you to show much of a dick I think you are.
I've blocked people that way, people have blocked me that way, it is what it is. |

This is true. I don't block people for that reason but I bet all the people who have blocked me on the forums would fall into this category  |

It's true though innit, the forum equivalent to sticking your fingers up at someone.

I guess you can get a feel from some folk (not like that you filthy minded lot!  ) from how they are in the forums.
Most "filtering" would be from a private chat though.
Just my own lil opinion |

No, the Forums are a small percentage of FAB users and tend to be a vocal minority in their outlook.
I have lost count of the amount of times we have met people at parties and socials that we got on well with, then when you friend them on FAB and read the profile you realise without meeting them first it us unlikely you would message them based on the profile.
Because forums do not convey feeling behind the words it is easy to mis-construe what someone is saying depending on our own state of mind at the time.
When the internet and real life meet, it rare the two match up. |

Trouble with the forums, and anything written really, is context. I can be a naturally witty (sarcastic) individual at times. Trouble is what I think is funny someone else's interpretation of what i said could be two very different things.
I don't know.
You shouldn't really block someone for having a different opinion, but them's the breaks I suppose.
Obviously if I said something like "say what you want about Hitler, but he had a go......" Then sure, block away.
But I never say that.  |

Your right private chats can say a lot
Some people can be so rude and not in a nice way |

Yes, in some cases very much so both positively and negatively. The vast majority of people I'm indifferent and woukd reserve judgement unless i met them |

Not really.
I think the ones that are full of puff and piss on here are likely to be the same in real life so unlikely to follow through with a meet anyway. |

Let's be fair though, what are the chances of me meeting a hung hottest with a loaded credit card through that?  |

"Yep,peoples true colours tend to come out when they post,so know who to avoid.

Not necessarily. People are reactionary and can react differently to the norm,depending on their mood,morale and tolerance level on the day. I'm normally very indifferent to most stuff on here,but on a bad day my veil of nicety can slip and the demons are let loose. They are usually held down by my angels of mercy |

Hehe! Thanks!
The forums are compelling reading, I find.
The amount of folks that contradict themselves on here is quite amusing |

I agree there, however you are not one who i see to be nasty or aggressive.Some are for the sake of it ,we can all get caught up sometimes in subjects we feel passionate about . |

No. I think I'm only on the forums to run my membership down. Haha.
Flirting, yes
Chatting you up, yes
Filtering, no. But I'm not a woman. I don't think that far ahead. |

I am making decisions to filter people into my life or not every day and I judge accordingly. Of course I read forum posts from people and think 'if that is how they wish to be portrayed, I have zero interest in them'.

Hmmmmm... so I have now realised that I have actually contradicted something that I have previously said on another thread wholesale with my contribution... 
Well, a bit of self admonishment for hypocrisy may be in order!! 
Looks like I would deserve a middle finger salute emoji if it existed!  |

Ive met many forum users through socials, either large ones or 1 to 1 ive met very few with other intentions. I meet mostly people that have never used the forums. I block for many reasons there are some forum users id not want to be anywhere near in real life and im sure some feel like that about me. |

I think the forums are just a bit of fun and use them that way, I have meet a few people and chatted to a few more by using the forums but that's not way I use them. |

I would never judge anybody by what they write on here
I have met loads of people from off the forums in real life at clubs, socials etc and most are nothing like in real life what they are like on here
I've also had a few people who have blocked me on here who after talking to me in real life have said....oh your quite nice really aren't you 
It's really easy to take people the wrong way on here |

I hope people don't make judgements on forum posts as I know I've been a bit narky the last few days. I think it's the heat - either that or I'm going through the change 
On the whole I accept that people can be very different in real life than on a forum so unless they're a total cockwomble in here I'll base my judgements on any 121 convos we have if ever we decide to meet |

Yes sometimes. There was a post from somebody about incest (now removed) and I blocked him immediately just in case I ever forgot who he was at least he can't message me. |

Generally speaking we've not had any meaningful conversations on the forums with anyone who would have been a candidate for a meet anyway. So not actively.
But certainly we would, if someone is a dick on here we wouldn't meet them whether they ticked our boxes or not... Well not unless they were the kind who enjoyed a hate fuck |

I would say if someone catches my eye on the forum, I might message them to see if they fancied a coffee
That's not to say for the people that I don't message I don't like not at all it's just I am practical as I tend to meet in north west |
