Encomium
SORRY! A few days ago, I posted a blog entry about how to be a BAD Meetfighters member. What I wrote was intended in a jocular sort of way but I am afraid I got the tone entirely wrong. There are certainly things which I would guess many of us find annoying (e.g. all those prick photos to peer-review - please just ... go away!) but, as was pointed out to me by a fine person much, much younger than me, why INVITE negativity?
So. Encomium. Coming up - and I invite you all to contribute. Oh - "encomium"? A speech or piece of writing which praises someone or something highly.
MEETFIGHTERS
- Tolerant, welcoming, encouraging, efficient, reliable
- Website SO well designed, so elegant; effortlessly surpasses rival sites
People on MEETFIGHTERS
- By and large, what a nice, tolerant bunch of people you/we are!
- I've met some superb people here and am so grateful.
- I don't "do" social media ... but have so many friends here with whom I can, day to day, discuss anything and everything.
That's just a start.
Does anyone want to add? More NICE things about MF?

09/2/2019 01:29No forgiveness needed, you were quite right it doesn't take long for someone to say no thanks no matter how popular they are and it's good to vent occasionally. Now if you could just write a short blog about the scandal that I keep losing my 100 star because the flakes drop off quicker than I can add them and take all the abuse for me for moaning, that would be lovely.

09/2/2019 01:03It's a fantastic site and most of the guys I've met have been lovely in whole variety of different ways BUT
One of the other great things about this site is the possibility of moaning, complaining, moaning about people complaining, going round in circles moaning about variations on the same subjects endlessly, winding up admin by painting him as an evil interfering devil rather than someone trying to enforce a few perfectly reasonable rules. It's all part of the fun...
