ok i agree that whoring shouldnt be done in useful threads... but we have threads like king of the hill and the chicks thread and word association for a bit of fun... what is with people on here whinging all the time? far out just lighten up people! .. without the whoring threads, i wouldnt be half the friends i am with some people on here... i honestly can't see why some of you are so upset with having whoring threads... "if you wanna whore use msn!!" ... WHY?! if you don't want to read pages upon pages of irrelevant dribble, stay out of those threads! some of us have a different perspective on this forum and how we operate on it than you... that doesnt make us wrong or bad people... it means we are just different to you! some people see it as a place strictly for information gathering and question asking... others see it as a fun place to hang out online, and a place to make friends... does it really ruin your life if there are people on here having fun and joking around with each other? without silly whoring (and only in the right threads), the community wouldnt be anything like it is... people wouldnt actually be close friends with each other as they are now... some people wouldnt feel comfortable coming along to meets, as they wouldn't know anyone... but after they come and join in some fun in king of the hill or something, they realise that we're all nice people and they wanna come out and meet us... is that so bad?! if you want examples, PM me or something... i can think of a bunch of examples where members of the community have helped each other out in various issues in their lives through getting to know someone on here, and becoming friends with them on here, and then taking the conversation to msn... i can think of a number of people who wouldnt come to a sydney meet because they aren't the sort of people who will just go join a group, but they have felt comfortable doing that, because they can see the sorts of people we are, and that we just love to have fun... so having said that, i thing the whores should keep their whoring out of threads that are for information... also stay out of meets threads, unless what you have to say will contribute to what's actually going on at the meet, like routes and directions and suggestions... apparently the mods are looking into putting the "whoring" threads into a new section, and we will simply keep our whoring in there...
