As everyone has realized, the tone of this message board has changed a lot over the past couple of months, especially more recently. Everyone is getting extremely hostile, exposing people's real identities, accusing people of being tranny posters (we haven't had an attack of that sort in a while that i noticed) badmouthing fellow posters that you normally would co-sign with all day. Not too long ago we all celebrated the fact this was a virtual barber shop of sorts where men (and some women) could come, shoot the shit of the day, trade some music, movies, porn and pictures and gain some insightful knowledge on various topics.
Now it's people not respecting other's opinions, people being criticized and even demonized for sharing their opinions or having different opinions. We're all excited about the potential change we're seeing on the political side, but we can't even agree to disagree like adults right now.
I know people will shrug this commentary off, or call me everything from FTP to to an idiot, but in some form i've participated in this board for many years and hate to see the direction its going in...
From one man to another, i'm greatful for this venue to discuss the views and lives of black men, but can we PLEASE get it together?
