the way I see it, too many third world horny little boys are trying their best to get into a game , not even bothered about reading the topic , and interact with others who are here for the pass time aspect ... I for one refuse to be drawn into their games, in case I encourage them to post drivel .... this also hampers my humour/ sarcasm and sometimes rude comments ...I was never one for the intellectual posts ... I find laughter is a way to a girl's heart ... IMO !!
laughter and intellect can be a deadly combination .when it comes to romantic love . It doesn’t hurt to let both attributes shine . Effective communication is about balance and knowing when humour is warranted .

It's definitely you Blondey tongue2
Just teasing, hiya Blondey :heart: waving

The way I see it is that very few of the Minglers who started threads with intellectual topics, or threads that stuck around for a while, are still here. A lot of them have left. New people, new interests.

From looking at the recent posts, it would appear that the interest is to pass time playing games. Not that that's a bad thing, I do it myself. It just is what it is. And for some of us, it's fun. Like getting together with a group of people to play board games. For me, it's a way of unwinding and having a few laughs, giving my brain a break from the face to face world.

Lately, a lot of the new topics that have potential for deeper, humorous, or intellectual discussions haven't lasted. Or have the same two or three people interacting with no one else chiming in. They can only say so much before the thread dies out.

It might be kind of silly, but maybe we could start a thread asking everyone what intellectual or humorous topics they like to discuss. Then those who are interested in starting a new thread will then have an idea of what the general population is interested in discussing.

There you go Blondey, and I'll help by proposing the title: 111BlondeSpirt1111 ! It should get things rolling just by the " made you look" factor alone.
I thought you had a thing for redheads:wink: river looks fab as a blonde but don’t you have a thing for redheads ????

Hi :joy:

Sooo ... I am living in Germany for 7 months now, bit looking after my mom, especially after my Dad passed away. Working full time as well now. As it stands, less time for social media as such. But I still hang around a wee bit on M2 and enjoy the banter :blush:

Or are the forums losing their intellectual spark? You know that old saying ..” if you don’t use it you lose it “. How is your cerebral cortex coping? Where have all the deep and humorous posters and discussion topics gone ? My mind is rebelling and I am seriously looking for a new playground :smile: pitchfork :angel:

Is it even possible to liven things up ?



I agree with your perspective.

With the way things have been looking
in the forums lately, I can't believe
I let you shave my balls for this.

M2 forums are not really very good forums.
The forum BBcode software is extremely restrictive.
All bbcode must be written verses the ease of a WYSIWYG editor with buttons. I know a lot of BBcode but most common BBcodes are prevented here.

Its called a "Community" but there is no community structure or support. Basically, just a few 'forum friends'.

looking for a new playground

This is the only "dating" forum I use. I am member at many "other subject" forums and even have a few of my own.
I've considered many times, leaving and not coming back but I find this forum entertaining. The minds here help me understand the minds at my other forums a lil better. So, I still learn something about the human condition from the M2 forums.

Try imagining the recent posts as a sitcom or a comedy soap opera, its rather amusing. Someone should make a TV show based on dating site forums.

Hi Blondey! flowerforyou It's nice to see you, my friend!

Totally agree with you about the forums. They're becoming a ghost town.

I'm always hesitant to start a new thread because I'm afraid I'll get hit with the "There's already a thread on this topic" and then a link to a thread from 10 years ago. Then when you post in it, people complain that you're digging up old threads. You just can't win! laugh

Maybe we should all post a new thread. I'll do one, but it probably won't be very intellectual. bigsmile

I think I came along to late, I never saw any of those types of conversations or maybe I ignored them, which is entirely possible. A lot of the serious discussions seem to turn into arguments and debates and that's not what I'm here for.

It's like this, I am allergic to shellfish, well more like shellfish people. Whenever I'm around them I get a headache and feel queasy.

Instead of the world coming closer together they are being driven farther apart. Some of this is being done intentionally by politicians and advertisers, other parts have more to do with pop culture. Society is becoming more bi-polar, or tri-polar, or even beyond. It's not just the liberals verses the conservative. Look at the stupid things they got going this month. Pride month? Like gay people need a special month? When gay people fly a rainbow flag outside what are they truly trying to accomplish? "Hey, look at me I'm gay"? Or "screw you, I'm here and I'm queer"? They are not trying to "fit in",and have "equal rights", they are saying they are going to rub their lifestyle in your face wether you like it or not.
Then we got the dumbest holiday ever invented aimed at people that don't work and want everything handed to them. Who ever came up with this "Juneteenth"?. That's not even a word and is even more make believe then Columbus day. Congress just wanted another paid day off. If it wasn't for slavery 90% of the black people wouldn't even exist in the United States. Why are they so fixed on the past? Why can't they assimilate? Why do 100 people get shot every year at "Juneteenth" celebrations. It's not bringing people closer together, it's making people say "hey look at me, I'm different from you"

I heard somewhere that after the so called "pandemic" people are associating less with classes other then their own. Maybe because people who work hard for their money don't appreciate freeloaders? Or is it more to do with driving people apart and pinning them against each other?

Someone mentioned all the people on Mingle, well I get plenty of hits everyday on my account, problem is they are all fakes, fake people don't post in the forums, well not often anyways. They still have profiles of people from 10 years ago, the number of people that are on this site long enough to realize there are forums is very limited. That along with the fact that every topic has already been covered a number of times makes it tough to come up with new content. I'm not big on social media but I've even noticed people don't comment on Fakebook like they used to either, and if people don't click on "like" for every post then people don't do it in return, or they drop the people. Maybe the forums should come up with a "like" button, and a "dislike" button also?

Garbage human being...

Not that I condone his post.

I personally believe dust4fun is accurate on the sentiments he shared. Even tho he missed way more, at least he is seeing the actual environment our 'new world' 'politically correct' society is heading for.
I firmly believe he is entirely entitled to his opinion on the matter.

I also firmly believe Devo1974 is entirely entitled to his opinion on dust4fun's opinion.
However, the same biased bigotry can be found there as well.

Then, RedneckHippy responds with a socially correct statement of alignment with Devo1974's sentiments.

Personally, I believe all of them are oblivious to the actual issues which are only hinted at in dust4fun's post.

The issue isn't skin color or sexual preference, its not religious beliefs or political affiliations.

The issue, in my opinion, is the fact people will not allow other people to have their own opinion or belief unless it fits within their own opinion or belief system.
You see it demonstrated constantly in these forums.
People bash, ridicule and chase away anyone who doesn't fit within your idea of social agreement.

Married on a dating site....GET OUT
Unique religious beliefs....GET OUT
Different dating beliefs....GO AWAY
Looking for sex.............YOU PERV

...and it goes on and on and on.

A discussion where everyone agrees on everything is really boring and shallow.
You get the same ...'permitted'...topics over and over again with the same ...'socially approved'...participants.

I don't know what Juneteenth is? I don't really care either.
You're homosexual, okay...I'm heterosexual, so what?

Let me give you a contrast on slavery.
A few hundred years ago invaders came to the new world in search of new riches. They decided to stay and commenced to TAKE the native population's lands by force.
The natives fought a valiant and bloody war against those invaders and lost. They were rounded up and put on small partials of their own land but afforded none of the rights of the invaders.
AND it is still happening to this very moment.

This same scenario plays out all over the world even today.

Then there's this...
A few hundred years ago these invaders went to another country and stole their people. They shipped them back to their new world and put them to slavery. Those natives waged no war, didn't significantly fight back and were suppressed by their captives breaking their spirit.
Some of the invaders decided against this slavery of another human being and offered to free them. The invaders then fought a bloody battle amongst themselves and finally won those slaves their freedom.
Now, those same slaves continue to hate all the invaders by skin color. They yell "unfair" "prejudice" and "equality" constantly.

Yet, who speaks for the natives who had their lands stolen, their people slaughtered and their cultures crushed?

Chances are good that right now you are on land which was taken from someone else.

The social correctness of the world is a farce. A delusion given to us by the offended so they don't have to deal with the actual issues at hand.
