An Annoying Habit Of This Site

When I found this site, I thought it might be a good place to make a few new friends and find some good conversation. Well, one out of two isn't bad, but the one thing I HAVE found is that it seems that while you can find some good conversation, for whatever reason, those same people just stop talking to you at some point. No real reason. They just ghost you and leave you hanging.

That's the one thing I truly detest about this place. You think you've found common ground with someone, then POOF! You see them when they're online, but they say nothing. It's beyond annoying.

Guess it's time to start looking for greener pastures somewhere else.

Try FetLife for your greener pastures. 🙄

@OlderSometimesWiser - Wow. You're a real sweetheart. Glad we never met.

I have a few great people on here that comment on my post and offer advice. They are all very sweet and they mean allot to me. I rarely get PMS but when I do it almost always ends up being someone wanting to know how I discipline my children or what my daughter wears to school. They get blocked really fast

Best friends are found in real life, not on websites like these. I know yearby year it's quite difficult to find good real friends, but to do so, you must go to places where your passions and interests intersect. It's not a good idea to trust strangers on these websites.

@MrGomco - I know plenty of people in real life. Other than a rare few, I wouldn't give most of them even the time of day. I've met some wonderful people online over the course of time. It's just that this particular site seems to have a plethora of odd ones.

I agree with you on this point. I have no idea what SW has done but unless you spend hours looking you will find nothing worth discussing. I am amazed at how far it has fallen in the last year.
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Adogslife Yeah I am not even sure it is the other person blocking or if it is AI that is determining if a discussion is out of line.

@hippyjoe1955 I’m basically down to the point where I come here to see what 2-3 people may have posted. Regardless, they’re rarely in my feed… so, I play for a bit then leave.

@Adogslife - As I said, I did grow to like this site, but It's fast losing its luster for me now. I'm on the lookout for another suitable chat site, so like you, I might come here and look around for a few minutes a day, then head off to greener pastures.

Can't say that I would agree even with your username. I haven't even looked at your profile. That may seem like a no brainer, yet some are slow on the uptake.

I'm dead certain that a few on this post hasn't figured it out yet! 🤣
People are offended by the slightest things. They will quickly move a piece off the board if they find something to sort on they object to.
I guess the name Strapmaster is probably related. Maybe try a new name, like BigFluffyPillow or something.

@JamesBugman - Heheheh. You could be right about that, but I figure they can take me as I am or keep on scrolling. At my age, changing to fit some else's idea of who I should be is no longer on the menu. I spent much of my youth trying to fit into someone else's idea of who or what I should be. It's a losing proposition, and it took me far too long to find that out.

Sites don’t have habits. People have habits and nuns wear them.

And you just described life in the real world. Time to wake up, smell the coffee, and deal with it.

People run out out things to chat about
Strapmaster · 70-79, M
@angie8819 - I think you're right about that....
angie8819 · 56-60, F
