Of course. Just send a PM to the moderator.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. 🤣

Emily Parker32 said:Just out of curiosity, where are you from and how old are you? I wonder if this is just a regional thing or maybe a generational gap. I'm 27, living in Washington, D.C. How about you?

Oh, come on now 😂

We've seen plenty of threads like this before.
Besides, what difference does being over 75 even make? You can just clear out your message history in a couple of clicks. 🤷

George Chavez8 said:I honestly don't get why such an awesome thread got nuked. The guy basically opened it as a total parody of the Prime Minister—like, who's even mad? I was sitting there describing my own self-inflicted mishaps, and they still wiped it out.

That’s just straight-up bad moderation. I have no clue why they're deleting this stuff when the thread was actually hilarious and let people be creative. The level of vulgarity was practically zero. If they’re going to allow those sexist threads to stay up, why is this getting the axe? It’s just sloppy, nonsensical moderation with zero logic behind it. Feels like some strict political party structure or something.

I had a similar experience on LJES in that "What happened last night" thread, and nobody said a word. And look, this isn't the first time threads have been deleted—it's totally pointless, obviously.

Honestly, some of these people would be way better suited as PR reps for young, attractive women on the Forum rather than trying to moderate. And hey, that’s not even sarcasm—it’s the honest truth.

That's all. 🙂

Exactly.

We should just remove that and let Natch take over. 🙂

Usually, they just get deleted or moved to some private section where regular users can't see them.😁
Or maybe they go to the archives? But then we're talking about threads that are basically matters of national importance.😁

Back when I was at my old job, the moderator handled things that way for us during our breaks, but nobody really complained since no one was obsessed with their post count anyway. I assumed other sites did the same thing, so I was a bit confused. Oh, so some people actually delete them. I wonder why? 😕

Olivia Moore51 said:The threads over on the off-topic boards are mostly just a byproduct of certain chats or those 'regular' topics. People meet up, hang out, and all that. It’s pretty standard, right? When they can't chat 'legally' in the main area, they start an off-topic thread to socialize, and they have a good time. I guess the only downside is that their post counts don't increase. It's not really a big deal 😁
It's definitely less painful than getting shut down by some admin from a PDF group 😁

I understand that. What I'm actually wondering about is this: say a chat on the US boards reaches 20,000 posts, and then a moderator closes it and opens a new one on the US boards instead. If that old thread just gets moved to off-topic, the only thing that happens is everyone's post count gets reset. So, I guess I'm just curious why that's even done.

I was wondering, why do some people insist on moving a thread to the off-topic section once it hits a certain post count? Is there actually a logical reason for that?

Personally, I think we could just get rid of those post limits altogether. 😁

And what's your limit? 🙂

Everyone is just throwing shade, yet nobody has actually answered. ☕
I could pull off ten of those slim-fit ones—arms straight at my sides.

It’s a gift shop, I suppose. 🤷

If you find yourself clicking but nothing happens, it might be an issue with your browser. 🤔

Try using this HTML code [ SIZE="1"] signature [ /SIZE]. (just make sure there aren't any spaces inside the brackets)

Man, that's just ridiculous 😁 lol

Generally speaking, I find those who resort to anonymous reporting to be quite distasteful...

😕

OT: Rarely posts, never uses a signature...

I handle about ten inquiries daily through my Gmail account, whereas I receive an average of three per month via my official work email.

Sophia Gonzalez85 said:Thanks.
And what about those who haven't logged in for 6 months and have zero posts?

I suppose that applies specifically to people who register but never actually submit a single post.

I honestly can't seem to swallow things properly; it always feels like it gets stuck in my throat, which is a pretty terrible sensation. Because of that, I usually end up crushing everything or tearing it into tiny, tiny pieces.

Rebecca Rogers5 said:So...
I've finally decided to ditch the tanning after twenty years of basically frying myself under the sun. I think I reached my limit because, honestly, the UV levels these days just don't feel normal anymore, and the constant appearance of moles along with premature skin aging is something every doctor seems to warn us about—especially for women like me who care about aesthetics, if not outright health.😁

This summer marks the first time I've spent my time either hiding in the shade or slathering on SPF 30 or 40, depending on whatever was within arm's reach. I should mention that I grew up near the coast, even though I live in Los Angeles now, so I used to spend my entire summer lounging on the beach, rubbing olive oil or homemade calendula oil on my skin without a single drop of protection; I even used tanning beds during the winter.

Now that I'm approaching 30, I suppose I've finally grown up a little. I started noticing that people in my age group are already developing fine lines around their eyes and their skin looks increasingly dry and thin. On top of that, I watched this documentary about the Sun and how it affects the skin, which showed the aging process of a woman in her mid-40s who had tanned aggressively; she ended up looking like crinkled parchment paper.

Whenever I bring this up with my girlfriends, the typical response is usually some variation of, "Oh, please, I'm not 45 yet; I really don't care what I look like then."

Well, I used to think the exact same way, but as I get older, those 45-year-olds actually look much younger to me. Seeing how some still look beautiful while others look exactly how I want to avoid, combined with the fact that I expect to have at least another thirty years of life ahead of me, I figured it might be wise to start thinking about the future. I'm pale as a ghost now, and everyone teases me, claiming I'm lying when I say I've been to the beach.😁, and since I'll likely be living well past 45, I decided it's better to plan ahead.😁

Anyway, I'm curious about something.

How many of you have decided to step away from the sun entirely?
Is it difficult being pale when you're sitting next to some artificially tanned blonde?😁

Or do you find comfort in that old-fashioned idea that fair skin is a sign of elegance and sophistication?😁

Personally, I'm finding peace in it; in fact, I might just turn it into a lifestyle.😁 😁

Of course.
I think being pale is beautiful, and I’d honestly feel unattractive if I were dark-skinned.😁😬

urbanpanther63 said:I actually find that quite sexy 😍, I guess, because I have a similar build myself—though I wouldn't call my own curves sexy—but I know plenty of thin girls who look great like that 😉.

How does that even relate to thin girls?

I think I see what you're getting at, because I know a woman who has something similar, though it's not exactly clear from this photo. But honestly, I'm not sure how you'd even go about getting rid of that.
