And posteriors.Social Media is full of inflated heads.
Describes this forum perfectly. At least here vs. FB there is a level of anaminity that drives the pompousness and passive-agressiveness etc. that is rampant where on other social media you may think twice with your pic and name for all to see before responding to folks like that.Social Media is full of inflated heads.
I honestly could care less about those kind of personal attacks. Want to tell me I'm ugly? Great, probably am. My wife isn't pretty enough for you? Great I'll be sure to tell her. Most people know better than to pick on children and when someone does make that mistake FB itself will drag that person pretty good.Describes this forum perfectly.

The problem with the term social media is some people (mostly the non-agreers) are adding their own connotation of what “social media” is to them. In reality this is absolutely by definition a social media (forum) platform. If we are going to truly call ourselves a scientifically minded community then individual perception/opinion of the term is irrelevant.Describes this forum perfectly.

Exactly. They think "social media" = Facebook. Forums are a form of SM all day every day whether they like it or not...I think it's funny. Litterally pictures of what people are eating here with back/forth convos..hahahahThe problem with the term social media is some people (mostly the non-agreers) are adding their own connotation of what “social media” is to them.

If anyone has a problem with that, I guess they can just go yell at clouds.
Sure, same, but it's a bit different when there is a name/face to it vs. here.I honestly could care less about those kind of personal attacks. Want to tell me I'm ugly? Great, probably am. My wife isn't pretty enough for you? Great I'll be sure to tell her.

If it boils down to personal attacks against me I've won the argument and will sleep with a smile on my face that night.
I am guilty for one.BITOG is a social lubricant with friction modifiers. Now I feel icky.
They're just in denial. They've stated over and over how they are too good or too mature (or whatever the case may be) for social media so when people prove this site is social media and they're active, willing participants, they lose their "stuff".some people (mostly the non-agreers) are adding their own connotation of what “social media” is to them
Except for the entirety of the general/OT forum/subs.They're just in denial. They've stated over and over how they are too good or too mature (or whatever the case may be) for social media so when people prove this site is social media and they're active, willing participants, they lose their "stuff".
They're not interested in posts showing what people are eating for dinner or other Facebook/Instagram-inspired posts. No, no, no, this is a technical forum..... about oil.....
