EF populace, what's your opinions on a no holds barred version of chat?

[needtogetaas]

undesireable bahvior is good for business
sex and shock sell

depends on your target market. If you can appeal to a broader spectrum of people well still allowing (the shock and aww) for others that like it in a way that dos not conflict wit each other then its win win.

ANd there in lies the problem.

what about a place for reg people who don't like this shit. A place for people to come and share and open up. A place for people to talk like normal adults, get advice, make friends, share there life with others.

So is the goal here to provide a place for people to pour-out their hearts and receive e-sympathy and e-support from everyone else?

no.
do you see me pouring out my heart or looking for e-sympathy?
rarely.

it doesn't mean that I want to see hundreds of threads about someone's bathroom habits, "call out threads", or whatever.

i DO, but it doesn't mean that.

 

[Dial_tone]

If it's just a place where everybody talks shit about people, even people who choose not to visit that forum, I'd be against it.

Yeah, i see no sense in mentioning someone if they don't even visit there. I really don't see the point in some ways, in others I do. I think this site is good as it is. I think everyone gets the point to calm down a notch, and some should (including me for my bad post). Right now I think its flowing good, doesn't anyone else? Has there been problems today? I don't think I saw any... but I haven't been looking, I am trying to avoid those political posts LOL....

 

[Cutiebaby]

I think that I would end up spending way too much time here insulting people, putting people down, and well just plain old trying to make myself feel better for the day by touching on someone elses personal life issues via the computer.
Fuck I would feel like super woman.


Fucking really now!

How about a place where you have some sense of respect and what the definition is, where you know when enough is enough and when you know what is touchable and what is not.

See this place was a shithole before, people were fucking with peoples real lives and NOONE gave a shit, they just joined in. Noone wants to deal with that.

It's one thing to make call out threads, or stupid threads. But to be an intentional fucking asshole, no thanks...My take on that is ----Find some other asshole site where your asshole attitude fits in nice and well where you can feel vindicated for being an asshole to someone who really does not deserve your shit.

So EF C&C is supposed to be the DR. Phil of the internet? As long as this is a juicer board it will NEVER appeal to mainstream people. EF would have to do a Muscle Media golden man and go the route of all natural health and fitness.

 

[javaguru]

I can't even open the forums board if I arrive early to a college class because of the latent juicer focus of the board. I just opened a new browser for the forum, guess what it says..."Anabolic Steroids and Bodybuilding forum." Thinking EF is going to attract new "mainstream" members by "cleaning up" chat while being a roid focused board....

 

[Mr. dB]

So when does all this go live? Do the new rules go into effect now, or only after the new forum has been created?
