Idle Chatter | A General Discussion Community

[Gemma]

The page is a mess. Too much of everything.

Thanks for your valuable input. Much appreciated.

Shall I delete it all since it doesn't meet your standards?

And blocked content. Come on, what are you doing

 

[ArtG]

Folks, @Gemma is one of the most generous members here and she has a site that she and her members like. It’s private.

I, for one, thank her for sharing as I’m always learning from her. I’m also grateful to see how much you can customize XenForo.

If you don’t have something nice to say… well, you know.

If it's only for family and friends, then why is he sharing this forum here? What's the point if everything is blocked anyway?

Maybe stop taking criticism as hate? What times are we living in? I have a feeling you're about to cry over this

 

[ArtG]

She posts images of how she customizes and offers features to her members. I learn a lot from this and can see if I can implement some take aways to my site.

Criticism with kindness is welcomed. You missed the second part.

Have a good one. I won’t continue to muck up her thread.

Calm down, this isn't hate, it's just criticism. Stop taking every negative message as hate.

Firstly, he is a she. Secondly, nothing is blocked if you are a member, and you don't need to see the content to offer an opinion on the design/construction of a site. Thirdly, I've already explained why I have a showcase thread.

Secondly, and I find this so annoying, my site is invite-only. That doesn't mean I cannot post a showcase thread. I've always assumed this showcase forum was for highlighting how you use the software and your own interpretation of a forum/community, and other admins could offer you advice on certain areas of your forum, good and bad - I didn't make this thread to gain members or registrations, nor is this what I believe the showcase forum is for - so please don't go in the huff when I say you can't join my site, you only show yourself up and my ignore list grows even longer.

I even have a demo account available that lets people browse the site, but again, they aren't going to see much in the way of content that is personal or sensitive.

Finally, if my content bothers you that much, stick me on ignore (I promise I won't be offended)...I've had you on ignore for months; my time on XF.com has been a much better experience for it.

I cannot be bothered with the FKING grief some people dish out on this site.

At this point your post should be deleted if you can't take criticism.

Thanks @ArtG, no point in engaging with the trolls.

 

[Agentos]

I only wrote an opinion about the appearance of your forum, and you made a scandal out of it. If you can't take criticism normally, then this post must be deleted.

This has already been reported to the administration because you did not read the rules.

You haven't once offered any constructive criticism; all you've said is I shouldn't have a showcase thread because I have a private site, and that somehow it should be deleted because it doesn't follow rules. I take a lot of criticism and advice on board from both people I respect and my site members; not trolls.

This showcase thread is to highlight my journey in creating something I've put a lot of time and money into, and I'm extremely proud of - why should I not be allowed to showcase it?!

Please just go away and leave me alone, I'm not in the mood for your nonsense, not today or any other day.

You are a nobody and I don't care what you say or your opinion, and I have no desire to engage any further, so stop writing nonsense in my showcase thread.

You have to learn to accept criticism.

The forum is hard to browse. Too many elements. I got lost while browsing
