Hey fellas,
Quick note that we have banned ILoveElla and moderated into oblivion several of his latest posts, including one whining about how feminists don't like men who aren't George Clooney and one instructing Anatman to act like he is white and not use the word "homie".
I was just going to moderate these out and shoot him a warning, but talked with Franco and he let me know he'd warned Ella last year for flaming ZacAdam not long before Zac left the boards, which I hadn't known about. That plus general unpleasantness and what appears to be much more interest in moaning and complaining than actually getting out there and putting in work and making headway and sharing triumphs from ILoveElla were enough to satisfy me we needed to show him the door.
So: quick reminder. Obviously, this is not some politically correct forum where we have to go around on our tiptoes and avoid hurting each others' feelings, because nobody has any desire to spend any time at a super lame SJW party and none of us are remotely politically correct anyway. This place is a trigger-pocalypse for folks like that.
However, neither is this the place to come and vent your ceaseless frustration at society's failure to conform to your vision of how it should be. This is the place where you come to figure out HOW society works, WHY society works that way, and then what YOU need to change and do differently YOURSELF to get what YOU want out of it.
And be cool to other people on that journey as well. There are a lot of incredibly intelligent, incredibly motivated men on this site. These are not people to flame for their choice of words or complain to about what some no-name feminist pundit who looks like she's never been hit on her life has to say about men. This stuff is irrelevant to them, and petty.
Most guys here know this and do not need a reminder. If you're new and not certain what this place is for, this is what it is.
Ask questions, post problems and successes, vent occasionally if you're frustrated at a certain problem, but do not take your rage out on other members or turn the boards into your personal therapist, or we will boot you back to commenting on BuzzFeed or Jezebel or wherever you usually argue with people over trifles.
Peace out homies,
Chase
