Maybe it is because I’m less interested in what happens in TV than I used to be. Whatever it is I just don’t find as much that interests me on the forum as I once did. Just curious if you find the same or if you disagree.
I think part of what’s happened is when new posters come on and ask a question they are met with snarky, smart ass responses. People, in general on this forum aren’t kind any more. An OP is asks a question or is giving their account of what happened, or their experience, and the responder answers with a question.......ie....our experience at such and such place wasn’t good. Responder.....did you talk to a manager, did you send the food back? A lot of times people come on this forum to vent or to save others from having a bad experience. They don’t want to be met with controversy. An OP comes on this forum to get advice, recommendations or to share their experience. If we could get back to answering their questions with kind responses and having a little sympathy when they have a bad experience, more people would stay on here. It has been my experience that when I post, I get nasty remarks, so I stopped posting. This forum is what you make it and it’s been turned into a battle ground! Let the battle begin!
