Do you feel like ASF has improved?

[GYMnTONIC]

Months ago we added new rules about respect and dignity on the forum.

I personally was apart of that decision bc I believe iron sharpens iron and we need to treat each other well

Do you believe ASF has improved in the last 6 months?

We have so many sponsors now that we are not even accepting new sponsors. @Arnold has the most badass bodybuilding forum on the internet if you ask me.

Thoughts?

Please provide feedback family.

Its a toss up. Before you knew exactly how someone felt and you could act appropriately, now everyone is on their best behavior and worried that a heartfelt post could get them admonished. Is it better to know the real person behind a comment so yo can put that weight behind it or is it better to have a cleansed forum where you don't know where comments are coming from... EHH there's benefits on both sides.

It’s coming around, would like to see it back to where it was but progress is being made.

There's still the handful who feel like its their fulltime job to disparage and ridicule. On rare occasions, it's earned by the poster that it's directed towards. But typically, no. All in all, it's definitely improved in my very limited time here

Things seem to be going along swimmingly... Hot button topics like religion, politics etc seem to be less emotionally charged with less people involving themselves in those testy discussions... Realistically with people nowadays it's very rare to have a calm, rational discussion of different viewpoints... Where the 2+ individuals can just shoot the shit about topics without one party getting butt hurt and their feelings get hurt... Blame social media, news, debate shows or whatever for that in today's climate... Even if you disagree with another something either big or small can be learned from conversations if you really are willing to listen...

I've definitely clowned on some ridiculous first time posters who have asked unbelievably dumb questions or comments... Which I could be better about but man the overly sarcastic side of me does arrive when seeing such nonsense...
