If you truly want to help people and make this a better place, then help us. Give us your support and aid us in our goal to finally rid this place of all negativity and toxicity.

That is all what we are doing here, spreading our message and bringing more like minded people into the fold.

We don't expect anything from you or anyone else, but the desire to improve the forum environment and teach people a better way to communicate without constant negativity and toxicity. All these meaningless fights, feuds and grudges finally need to end.

If that is what you want as well, then I welcome you and implore you to share whatever information you can, that will help us in achieving that goal.

It's really as simple as that. We need other people who have similar interests to provide advice and information on how to approach and ultimately achieve this seemingly impossible goal.

That is what we need and trying to discuss here, ways to finally make a change.

Why do you consider improving the forum environment an attempt at creating a Utopia, basically stating the idea to be idealistic or even unattainable?

Do you really believe that this level of toxicity and negativity is simply the natural order of things? Why can't we strive to better ourselves?

I have just created a new club for this endeavor, called The Community Clean Up.

Only say the words that are on the proscribed list.

Come back daily to keep up to date with which works are currently proscribed  to be used.

No words not on the list can be used under any circumstances.

Enjoy your freedom of speech.

lmao

What did that someone do?

Yeah. I want to know

• The forums should be a learning, fun, environment, not a nest of trolls. 
• I say fun (Off topic should remain like that, it should be a fun place in general)
• If you have any questions on what I am saying, please ask and I will clarify.

👍

Yes

To clarify, I mean the whole forums.

Rick and u fought over who’s tos was better and Colby shut both of ur forums down?

So u stopped cause u got mad?

Then?

So u also decided to stop?

Oh ok

During this absolutely unfair moment on Earth, we all are going through some trying times, and we all should recognize this, and keep it close in mind when we’re to post any response to another here, and think what they might be going through, how it might help out, realizing a respectful reply always is better than disrespecting someone else, because, maybe with what all they’re going through, might stir how they post, and if only the trolls here would realize such isn’t a proper choice to troll, while lockdown still remains and we’ve seen already plenty hostility that should be avoided, for us all to remain as best we can in a harmonious atmosphere and we should be desiring to help out anyone, that in return then helps you, and we all receive some help, some comfort, some care, the comfort we all wish for that keeps us happy to return the next day to these threads and not negativity, with intent to lash back for whatever reason, but rather happy because the  a t m o s p h e r e  is comforting and one looks forward to return a response!  Sorry my grammar lol

LET’S Make This Community A BETTER Place!

I have some pointers.

Yesterday, I responded to a post asking for help about a particular position. Now, this post was a few days old, but I noticed the OP making a rude comment about someone’s observation about this guy’s account. I stepped in and rebuked him politely, telling him the guy had a valid point. The next day (today), I received the best insult I have ever been given. “Does he also tell Wall Street bosses their employees wear suits and ties? Wow, valid point.“ My next post was interesting. I explained how his argumentation was riddled with logical fallacies. More sparks flew. On my next and last post, I told him that all of the cynically modulated comments where from his own underlying pain, and bashing people on the forums wasn’t the best place to do it. He told me that was the most idiotic comment he has ever seen, then he blocked me. 

Morale of the story: I should’ve handled it better, and some people don’t read the entire post and absorb it. And that not everyone likes being shown how their thinking is flawed.
Personally, I would love to help with the club, but most toxic people don’t sit down for an intelligent discussion. Instead, the respond like today, with Ad hominem attacks. 
Good luck with the utopia!
