Bumping this thread for the title and two addition reasons.
1- I hope in the upcoming weeks we as members maintain an atmosphere of politeness, respect and we do not forget to congratulate the models on the site. There is no need for pettiness, back stabbing or bring a model to tears just because they are one spot above our favorite(s). I can only guess the models do not want to deal with members causing problems. I am supposedly an adult like everyone else on the site; lets continue to act like
mature individuals. I love the female models on the site, but I see no reason why I should not take the time to go congratulate models in the other categories during the upcomming event. If the above makes little sense, look at the 'top cam contest.’
2- I was amazed and shocked to the point of laughter when reading through a particular thread. I am not trying to cause problems, but provide an example of what I have seen recently in the forums. I was actually laughing while reading the thread because etiquette, common sense and decency were tossed aside. It was shocking the number of insults one particular poster directed towards others - the shocking type that make you laugh from the 'someone actually posted this!' factor. No matter how tricky, smart or ironic we think we are someone else will easily spot an insult (four lines of text had 5 insults, 3 of 5 an average person needs a second to realize the insults are racial, directed at one member). The actions of some members were outside the boundaries of common sense, and these members should know better.
For those who know what thread I am referring to, here is my opinion. Should we state what thread this occurred on - NOPE, this would only cause problems. Should someone report the thread or request certain posts be removed - in this case I say NO, the subversive racial insults should remain to cleary identify the guilty party.
I use the website to escape my real world problems, stress, etc. of writing and editing a 100 page document, making and editing slides for a 45 minute public presentation and then giving the presentation.
To the individual who just kicked me firmly in the backside – no offense taken. I am shutting up, time to decide which model to spend some time with in private.
