TOPIC: Major Changes Ahead
Re: Major Changes Ahead
9 years 8 months ago #1294133608It is "objective" to include every post by everyone. But who really wants to read how many times reseachers of vaccines are scratching their arse? The major changes are necessary, only I think a complete overhauling should be done ...

9 years 8 months ago #1294137452lakingsfan, you are absolutely wrong! As chester says, it is a "forum." Otherwise SO can just write papers and articles on the subject and publish them.
AndrogenS, what do you do until these "promises" have been established? Do you make use of what is available and proven? It's why we are here!
mike81, I think only the last paragraph of your post is correct. In line with that, in a former post of mine (few posts up), I mentioned that even the moderators are guilty of "chiming" in, to my disappointment.
mustang2020 is spot on ...

Re: Major Changes Ahead
9 years 8 months ago #1294132857It seems slightly ludicrous to be constantly describing people and their posts as "neurotic" and depressive" seen as this is a forum for people who are depressed about their penis.
Sometimes it seems the only people on here who aren't neurotic and depressed are people who are already 14cm thick and do PMMA for sport.

I was one of those guys at 6.25 to 6.5 el by 5.85 eg, that thought I was small and I NEEDED TO BE BIGGER.
Thanks to you and the mods I got fixed what was broke, the space between my ears. So even through the muck and yuck of some of the posts, this site does work, that is if the people reading have a rational thought process.
People that are desperate will do ill advised things like Indiano then whine and cry that everyone is ignoring him when he has an issue with his procedure. Please keep in mind while " doing some house cleaning" that even the negative posts like most of farmer john's have some value in them. He was freaked out in every way and it turned out ok.
Thanks for all you guys do,
J

What I find sort of odd about the situation, is when most of the time you maintain a "bro" like personality, but recently you are back to the "take by ball and go home" personality. I get it, we have nutjobs on the forum. Handle them, fine. But no need to rub it in everyone else's face that we are on "your forum". It's just off putting. Especially for those of us who have been here for a few years. In fact, I think the core members on here, would need no explanation for changes on here. No need to debate shit with people that have been here for a few weeks. I'd find it unfortunate if this board were to close. To be honest though, I'm not frequenting this nearly as much as before. I enjoyed the comradely, before. Now the site is devolving, and fast....
How am I rubbing it in people's face? Strange sentiment really, that simply reminding people of the reality of this forum not being a democracy is somehow off-putting and inappropriate. It's almost as if, the truth that I could shut this down on a whim is bothersome and you need not be reminded of it. And threads related to making this pay site obviously reiterate my ownership to remind people I rather not be paying out-of-pocket.
I announced this so that people would understand what's going on in the event I delete a thread or post. The reason I kept this thread open for conversation is to allow for community input. Bad move on my part. All it's done is piss me off, including senseless replies like yours. I'll continue to be off-putting, thanks.
To all those that don't like my attitude, don't let the door hit you on the way out. Till then, this discussion is now over. Have no fucking clue why I still deal with self-entitled goons.

People need to know what to expect from any procedure, positive and negative, so if there's a way to remove the neurotic/depressing stuff while still leaving any valuable *facts* that would be great.
Thanks to S.0. and the moderators and vets who've contributed very useful information.

And let me add, negative posting isn't an issue. Hell, it's priceless really. But there is a difference between "negative reporting" and "reporting with negativity," if that makes any sense at all.

I was banned from PEGym for speaking out on possible dangers of jelquing, and I was actually quoting a Urologist who believed manual PE could work, but just warning about the danger of jelqiing. Over the years I've periodically been researching the best/safest methods for increasing Girth (a common desire) and I find this site invaluable.

I'll do my absolute best to keep intact pertinent information. As mentioned in one of my previous replies, I believe the availability of "negative" reporting (i.e. complications, reports of dissatisfaction, etc) are invaluable and that I will make a distinction between "negative reporting" and "reporting with negativity."

I should also point out - there seems to be no negative view (or awareness) of people who have gone obsessively overboard in their pursuit of a large Dick. That's just as abnormal and irritating to watch. I never complained about it because it has been going on since the inception of this forum & really didn't seem like my place to complain. It skews the perception of what is normal when people are so vocal about being over 6" in Girth or even 7" (and actually achieve it from 5+ rounds) and makes PMMA seem a lot safer than it is. To prove my point, Sizemic was well aware of this and stopped posting pics because he didn't want to influence other people or mess with their perceptions of what normal is (he stated this verbatim). He was pretty self aware of this phenomenon which many other of the huge members are not. So, this may go both ways once you want to start deleting posts of people who seem obsessive, irritating, and not representative of typical outcomes.
Apparently I have missed some things in the past few weeks so if I overreacted, then I apologize - but my sex life has been non-existent since round 3 and having constant open wounds and reconstructive surgeries has been pretty hellish for 1+ years. So, the perception that I fell in the "crazy and neurotic" bucket after everything I have been through pissed me off. I WISH this was in my head and I was crazy and neurotic.

I'll echo what Hoddle said, this thread wasn't aimed at any particular poster.
But I can't help but be honest and at the very least point out how your response is the kind of thing I'm trying to work on ending. You just reiterated everything we already know about your situation and did so at length. You read this thread and you instantly felt that it was about you (which it is not, it is not about any one single person). Isn't that in itself a bit strange?
I've begged members to share all reporting, good & bad! And I get the need to vent & grief. But sometimes the tone becomes so depressing that it's hard to digest the information as time goes on.
Look, these aren't isolated cases, it's becoming a common trend. And this new forum policy isn't up for debate, its more-or-less an announcement. I hate seeing some of my favorite posters disappear because they can no longer stand the climate on these forums. This forum needs to return to research gathering and straight-forward dialog.
Again, grieving & venting are understandable...but when it permeates one's thread and postings, and it becomes a tolerated commonplace mentality, it just kills the-once-positive vibe this forum had.
