Hardly.

Again, I find it very telling that some of you are so very up in arms about a simple question and a stranger's opinion on posting photos to garner compliments.

Because I was curious as to what it was about. I opened it, read the OP, rolled my eyes and went along my merry way.

I'm not complaining. I don't think they cease to exist. If we are allowed to post positive opinions, surely negative opinions are allowed as well.

Actually I do "hang around" message boards and I never insinuated that people who frequent *this* forum lacked a fulfilling life. I simply stated my opinion on the Look at Me threads and asked what the purpose of this forum was; no more, no less.

Does anyone here breast beat and moan about you not posting pictures here? Then why would you breast beat on someone else's "choice" as you so humbly put it

It just doesn't add up. What's for the goose holds for the gander too.

But never on this particular forum.

It was a simple question born of curiosity. Sorry that it bothers you so.
I see... Just a busybody. Not very fond of those.

Stating an opinion is hardly breast beating.

So what if I am new on this forum? The "cold shoulder" thread drew me in and I have posted on other threads on this forum before this one. *shrug*

If you aren't fond of "busybodies" (which apparently is stating an opinion and asking a question) then move along.

Yes, negative opinions are certainly allowed when someone opens up the floor by asking "am I hot or not", but in a civilized society it doesn't hurt to apply the golden rule of "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it".

I see threads on here all the time that leave me scratching my head and wondering how people make it through life. I can choose to pass on that thread and go on to something that interests me rather than chime in with something rude or snarky. That's not to say that I don't get into with another member from time to time, but my time on these forums goes a lot smoother when I simply walk away from a thread that doesn't exactly tickle my curiosity.

I see a ton of threads that I don't comment on for one reason or another. Sometimes I do want to state my opinion, even if it is negative, because I feel it is just as valid as positive opinions.

This one does tickle my curiosity so I'll stick around for the time being.

Stranger, we're all amazed you don't fish for compliments. My selfesteemogram scale burst and cracked when it was measuring you.

I'm putting my Molotov cocktails down now
