Quote from dac8555:
the more i read and contribute to ET, the more garbage i see.
childish insults, kids entertaining themselves, and not much along the lines of professional people looking to learn and contribute. foul lanuage, personal insults, talking about peoples mother and families...you name it. simply not how i care to spend my time.
can anyone reccommend a more professional site with more successful adults as members?
thanks. good luck to all.
The ones I can think of are extremely inactive.
With that said...probably your best option is to
not participate in those particular threads here at ET your making reference about.
I see them also (kids arguing, insults, antagonistic posts, profanity et cetera) and I have learned to just not post in those threads along with not engaging nor responding to particular ET members.
Yet, there are a few occassions I will say what's on my mind in response to something but will move on soon afterwards.
You should also use your
ignore feature but if you find yourself involved in a thread where your ignoring a lot of people or ignoring more bad stuff than good stuff...
Like I said already...its a thread you stop participating in or talk via pm with those you get along with.
Further, use the complain feature.
It doesn't work all the time but it does work most of the time especially if you follow-up with a pm to the moderator of the thread because most of the moderators aren't aware of that crap unless someone tells them.
Simply, your in
absolute control of the situation and not those spouting the garbage.
Last of all, you must ask yourself...why do you feel the need to respond to them and make antagonistic replies to encourage them to spout more junk ???
