Yes. Many times. I've been reported at least twice. Never for an actual violation. Usually it's just someone got mad. Which is what 90% of reports are, unfortunately.


Fair enough, but I think more can be done. Responding to toxicity with more toxicity has never...ever worked on here. Or the other boards. I've been around since February of 2011. The old boards always had hater/homer debates too. Things always seem at their worst when the so-called positive people become just as toxic as the people they claim to rail against.

I've stood up against negativity a few times recently, but there's only so much you can do or say to stop it. Eventually we need to realize that the only people we can control is ourselves. I keep repeating this phrase, but it usually falls on deaf ears: Be the change you want to see.

If you're truly a positive person, then it will show through your actions. You won't argue for 20 pages and match toxicity with toxicity. You'll just keep being positive. If we had enough people like that, I think the tides would start to change on here.

I'm not sure I've ever reported anyone or even use the ignore thing..If i did I don't remember it.. I figure that at 62 I should be a grown man able to take whatever some schmuck keyboard warrior is slopping out in their digital diarrhea.. I don't take any of it personally.. I long ago discovered the power to get up, walk away from my computer to find something else to do besides argue with children masquerading as adults.. Mellow

Thinking about getting up and finding something else to do I have 27 cabinet doors to make and just started planing the wood yesterday afternoon. It ain't gonna get done sitting here typing this self pat on the back now is it?
