@Briteeyes: Well, if I get attacked then so be it, that is my personal point of view and I will express it even after being attacked. If these forums can be salvaged and restored any than they need to be worked on. This is not for the new users to feel like they don't have any worth here either... This is for us as a community to strengthen the conversation on here... I mean really... Some threads I just glance and exit! I want to want to put my two cents in! I miss being a forum addict!
you hit the nail on the head exactly Kat! Its not that there is anything wrong with what we have....It can just be more and I am not sure those participating now even know it....THATS what I am asking....how to we show em? Its like Ice cream....I love a big ole bowl of vanilla ice cream, it tastes great.....but if I can turn that ice cream into a fabulous sunday by adding a few ingredients then why not do it and enjoy it even MORE!

Another thing I have noticed is that too often the very first or second response to a thread is negative. Mebbe thats putting ppl off?
But if we ignore the negitive and stay positive about someones answer then things should be fine.
Again, productive to discussion? To ignore people? hmmmm

I love participating, I'm on my phone and sometimes its hard to keep up in conversation.
This is true for me also.

Girl, you guys are the older version of dating.mobi. You know what it took to get it here. And, instead of staying on course, many of you helped turn it into what it is by forgetting the purpose of it and instead focused on who the audience is suppose to be or what they are suppose to say. So, get working and produce some of the quality threads that you are use to seeing here and made forums richer in discussions! Im sure you guys can get it rolling in your direction.
That may be the case, but you guys have to be willing to respond to or threads. LaDawn stated that she has revived and started many of "old" quality and maybe 1 reply has come out of it.

@JLaDawn: I'm just trying to think of how to show them without them taking it as a personal attack, which they shouldn't. Suggestions?

Look girl...you're cool with me. But, you were gone for a little while. I know the drama folks and I'm not fooled in the slightest by them. I respond to threads and I engage but I'm not going to be set up. Many people are hip to that game and isnt falling for it lol If you guys want people to be comfortable engaging fully in discussions then some of you have got to pull your head out of your butts when a post comes that bores you or is about 5 paragraphs long about what they think. Even if they respond jokingly...at least you've gotten their response then nothing. You shun people and that's it. They're not going to want to even post on your thread.

@JustMeAndYou77: And no ones trying to ruin your fun. Im telling you that if you had joined when the real good disscusions joined you love then you girl would be estatic. And i have never been dunced. And if we ignore the attacks or negitive stuff and just report them like andres said to do they will learn. You wont get dunced. They will.

@kitkatkaity: am trying with this thread....all I know to do. Have been trying for a few weeks...and keep getting nothing nothing nothing or else someone comes on off subject and negative and shuts any potential conversation down....I am kinda in agreement with Nocturnal....maybe it is time to mourn the loss and move on?

What is seen is but the individual thoughts of the mass conciousness of all the people on here. As individuals we do what we can to influence and change it wholly for better or worse and try to get a few people to smile in the process :)
This is true. Why not have a good disscussion and instead of people being vicious joke around as you have a good disscussion. We did before why not now.

Yes, and I've known you for a while. You're alright. I'm not a go along person though brats. I respect you but I have my own opinions as well so ya...I have been dunced lol I have no problems with nearly all of the topics here. Well, unless someone wants texting then they're on their own lmao But, generally, people know I will discuss nearly anything. Problem is...being bushwacked. If that's an appropriate adjective lol
