FW Forum agro

Is it just me or have any of you noticed that some of the posts and comments on here have become a little less than friendly towards fellow forum members. This place is not facebook.

Everyone is allowed a different opinion and debate is great, but could I suggest that we keep the comments on topic and not get personal. Perhaps I am being a delicate petal, but Ive noticed certain personalities have recently become quite dominating in regards to their vitriole.

PS: Footy banter can get as personal as you like.

Banter

Tue, 2020-11-10 11:20

In this age of social media its sometimes hard to work out sarcasm or negativity. I think assumptions of where fish are caught and bag limits sometimes cause heat.

This site has a huge range of users with experiance and knowledge, everyone has an opinion and you can respectfully disagree with out getting personal or agro.

There is plenty of negativity and bullshit in life without it on a fishing forum.

I have just got back into fishing and boating and enjoy reading all the posts plus gaining some tips from fellow users.

Tight lines

Yeah not needed, people being hero's behind a keyboard with personal insults. Might be a different conversation in person.

Definitely no need for the agro that has come forward from time to time but most I see is just a bit of banter and sometimes it does go a bit far but most on here are good about it . It is a forum for all to share and opinions are like ass@#@#s , everyone has one but some just stink. 

I have been on here for many years and think we have got a good bunch of people on here . There has been some questionable people but they soon dissapear

 Yeah I agree the aggro is not necessary. Banter is fine but no point getting personal unless there has been a personal issue!

Hmm

 I hadn't read the Trump thread, politics does it everytime, along with religion. Just a matter of time before those discussions turn to custard. Sites been going 15 years and they do it every time, I probably should have seen that coming.

Hope most can move passed that noise and focus back on the fishing (and giving the pies supporters rubbish - in a P.C appropriate manner of course)

 

Cheers

Adam
