Don't know for how long. Maybe I'll stop by tomorrow and see how things are in here.
Or maybe, as unlikely as it seems, I'll be able to find a few boards here that aren't filled with hate where I can have fun again, chat with others about movies and shows.
All I know is I'm weary of all this drama. It's gotten too toxic for me.
To all the fun-loving good people here, and you know who you are, thank you.
Things have gotten a bit ugly here on GD and on a number of the movie boards too and i dont like it either
I just hate that an OG and VIP board Mama is splitting over a handful of nasty jerkfaces
We can right this ship and keep it sailing together
If you leave us just know that you were appreciated and very highly regarded...
Luv 'ya😽
Best wishes dear lady
Yeah sometimes I give it a breather here and there. I am not someone who ignores people typically so I see a lot of the garbage post. Unfortunately moviechat has not made it a priority to rein in the political stuff and it bleeds over on other boards. Hope you stick around, need more like you not less.
I agree with GlenEllyn above.
I hope I haven't contributed to your unhappiness with MC, ( and I seriously doubt I have).
Some of the nonsense that goes on with the Trump board can be easily ignored, but I suppose some of it spills over.
Someone who I detest pointed out we shouldn't use other threads for our personal disagreements, a rare moment of lucidity for this person.
But I do try to stay civil and thoughtful with my comments and have good, clean fun.
My problem is being informed with so many movies that seem popular but I'm not familiar with.
I kinda fall back on the classics, but I'm not sure how relevant they are these days.
Anyway, maybe your statement will wake up some folks to start playing nice.
Btw, I'm on two other forums, one hockey, one music, and they are moderated and brook no rudeness, and I find them very intelligent and enjoyable.
Take care and I hope we cross paths again soon.
"It's gotten too toxic for me."
That is the main reason I'm not around much any longer. I want to concentrate on the positive things and the people in my own life.
Enjoy those oysters!
I tried the beans on toast! Very interesting!
I'm home. I have been taking a break from this site and doing other things.. I doubt I'll spend much time on these boards for the exact reason that Cat mentioned. Besides, I thought it over and decided that sitting at a computer for hours and talking to people I have never laid eyes on is not exactly the way I envisioned my retirement. I find myself arguing with people and being just as cruel as they can be. When you start allowing strangers to hurt your feelings, it is time to access the situation.
I'll drop by once in a while, but mostly on the individual boards, and mostly to check out what others thought of a movie or TV show.
See you around.
Sorry to hear it margo! Can't say I blame you! If you're married or have someone special....spend your time starting into their eyes...beats a computer screen👍😉
Hope when you stop by...you'll look me up!!! Take care miss davis!😉
Thanks, Stratego! I'll drop by now and then. I'm just not digging the atmosphere here these days. Things aren't like it use to be here. It is beginning to stink.
See you around.
Margo, what kind of beans? What kind of toast? See, if we just talked about food all the time, this would be a peaceful place. Nobody starts spewing venom because someone else prefers kidney beans over Lima beans. Or whole wheat toast over seven-grain toast.
