Well said, this is exactly how I have felt for a few weeks now. I would literally come into this section saying to myself, "lets see who i can argue with today." I had the wrong attitude coming into this section. I am going to change the way I have acted. I hope you guys can too.

Don't change entirely, you keep this place funny. but yeah I have seen you go off a tad @ times. Believe me.. I used to frequent a board where there was so much drama at one point, actually directed towards me and someone else. I used to get all fired up when going in there because I knew something was going down and I always felt like I was being attacked. That was such a wrong attitude, hence why that other person and I left the board. But the drama followed and oh well people have nothing better to do with their lives when they don't have any security within themselves.

I have made alot of good friends over the years in the boards and you know what I remember alot about people and their lives. Lets just get to know each other better and find WW a date, lol

carry on... :P

Why should there be such gloominess or bickering? I have seen this all too much on other boards and it took away so much from the fun and the good people.

well I am so glad that I can bring some well needed love to this section, lol.

No seriously, we all have our days, our ups/downs. The chat section is a place where we can come to hang and chat with each other, have some good laughs, give out some opinions, advice, props or just be silly.

Its truly not needed... you want to vent your frustrations go take it out in the gym and make your lifts stronger, but don't be nasty to each other or bicker on stupid crap.

l like this board because its not too crazy and you can keep up with the threads, etc. Not too much work, but I have seen some ugly stuff go down and you know what if you are in the thread and reading all the bickering, well it just makes you want to go to another thread and not respond to said thread.

Lets be nice, give each other good advice and most importantly show some SM love!

Thats all.... :P

We can always say nice things about one another, it's whether or not they're meant;) But I agree...

Well that is the whole point. I don't want people to say stuff just to say stuff. I want people to change the way they think and act in the forum. Somewhere along the line it turned ugly and people started getting ugly with each other. Nobody is ugly to each other in the other sections like the anabolic section, nutrition section, etc.. People are helping each other in those sections. For some reason though, this section has become separated from those sections and it is like 2 different forums. I hope that people can drop any beef or problem they had in the past and start with a clean slate. It helps no one to keep bring up old BS. Lets move forward guys.

All comments are welcome on things we can do to change the way we treat each other in this forum. Any comments directed at any person will in a negative way will be deleted.

I decided to make this thread a few days ago actually. When WonderWomen made the post about "say something nice about the person above" and nobody could really do it. Remember what I said above. Same team here guys. Lets change the way we view each other.

There has been a lot of negativity around the chat section lately and it is time to address some problems.

This is a bodybuilding/fitness site first and foremost. This general chat section is for people involved in our lifestyle to hang out and relax during the day. Lately though, what it has become is a chat section where people are constantly trying to 1 up or "own" each other or be funny in a negative way. I am guilty of it myself. As of today I want that to stop. Lets be more friendly to each other, lets help each other. We are supposed to be on the same team here guys.
