I can assure you the people I spoke with were not talking about Paul.

I care. Have you not seen the gratuitous downvotes that I receive daily on this board. It’s oppressive, to say the least. Irrespective of it being an online forum, the hostility of this board can definitely be a hindrance for those that would like to post on a regular basis.

I don’t think high school aged kids engage in as much name-calling as this board.

This is pathetic.

A lot of people I’ve spoken to said they don’t post pics because they are afraid of being criticized by a handful of posters that are jerks. I could tell they really enjoy this board but a few of them make them feel unwelcomed.



What?

No. I don't pay much attention to those. Why do you care if someone downvotes you?

Is this board really that hostile? The Poli board is the benchmark for that and this board is far from that.

Some of what you said may be true. I just personally don't think people should care all that much about upvotes and downvotes. If someone's not nice to you, stand up for yourself.

gratuitous downvotes



I say some things that I can see why they get downvoted.

Some things I post are so innocuous that I wonder why they are downvoted. So I guess I care because I wonder why.

I do stand up for myself. Please take a look of my last couple of meals in the WFDT thread and you’ll explicitly see the double digit downvotes that I get pretty much when I say anything on this board. It really is odd, unfortunate and most of all, immature and sick.

I want to post pics but honestly if I cannot use a pic from my phone and upload it easily without going somewhere else to retrieve it is too much work. Or I don’t understand how to do it.

Please educate me so I can post pictures.

I honestly never open those threads. I believe you on the downvotes. Stop caring about them and you’ll have a better experience.

Does not pertain to this board. I wholeheartedly understand your point, but I was specific about the rancor with this particular board.

That guy has been polluting the O-T with egregiously bad commentary for years now.

Well in all fairness, we are still waiting on your reviews of Fluties, Texarkana, Barcadia, your favorite spot Endochine and of course the wait for the Dorsia review really has folks pissed off.

I am the same way. I think you have to save to photobucket or myspace and upload. I am kidding...but seriously I wish it was simple.
