It’s sad…
But those of us who remain just have such different beliefs and none of them can be shared without being insulted or laughed at… so we stopped.
It feels like our little corner of the internet is dying

I still enjoy the site, and one of the main reasons I interact is to read the opinions of those who think differently. I already know what I think, but there is always the possibility to learn from others - or at least gain insight.Slimshandy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 8:55 am It’s sad…

Just not responding to insults or sarcasm seems to be the best option. I try to just move on to the posters who actually have something of substance to offer.

By dying do you mean less pointless trolls? I think it's quite nice actually.

That’s me. So many hateful posts, so I started putting people in my ignore list. It got too big and I felt too lonely.
I do appreciate the few people like you, who were supportive!

That was the same for me, I loved hearing opinions that were different than mine.MonarchMom wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 9:19 amI still enjoy the site, and one of the main reasons I interact is to read the opinions of those who think differently.

I just got tired of defending myself rather than defending my views.

I think for me, I just no longer feel like defending my opinion or posting links to sites that demonstrate where I got my opinion from....to only be told I'm wrong for my opinion.
Sure, that's how people debate I suppose but I no longer care to participate. Just don't have it in me.
I feel too, that the condescending and sometimes outright rude replies is not only eye roll worthy, it's a major turn off for me.

I know, it is so quiet!
The two who troll the most have been quiet for awhile. Who are you talking about?Baconqueen13 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 9:29 am By dying do you mean less pointless trolls? I think it's quite nice actually.
