I agree.
Another thing was the ones complaining never once showed which post was "hurtful, harmful and meanspirited" no, it was just the whole board, every comedic silly post was out of line, out of place and an attack......
wow..... I guess a whoopee cushion at work is call for being given a written warning or seeing someone dancing and singing down a store aisle because that person is enjoying life and doesn't care what others think......is call for them needing a shrink.
BTW I have done and I do both, regularly. Because it's fun and hurts noone except those looking to be hurt.
BTW the post in question.....
2 days 2 hours...... 840+ views 85 posts.....granted some were the complainers but Hey Zeus Freaking Crispies...... I haven't seen a post move that fast and have at least 75% of the posts and posters laughing, sharing and enjoying themselves in ALL OF TFP..... for a very very very long time.
But humor and people just letting loose and having fun has no business in TFP unless it's in a forum that the complainers feel it is appropriate and can't hurt anyone.
Amazing, 840+ hits in 50 hours and yet it was such a mean post. The only other post in recent memory to move that fast was .... "What has happened to TFP" and guess what one shows exactly the answer to the other's question and very much needed to be seen.
Now, if we understand and people truly open their eyes and not be so pseudo offended..... we may make progress in all aspects here.
