Hi everyone,

I guess its my turn up on the old soapbox.

I've got to be honest here. I keep seeing all these GREAT pics posted by some of our new members, and while these wonderful people are literally baring themselves to the rest of us here at Pixies..I'm seeing alot more negative comments when they do.

I dont understand..and frankly it's beginning to PISS ME OFF.

Can we PLEASE use a little common sense and take in mind the feelings of the others here? Its all well and good to dissagree..but if you feel you must criticize the the pics use the PM system or better yet keep your damn fool MOUTH shut.

Don't ruin the site for the poster of the pics..and for those of us that enjoy everyone for what and who they are.

If you want to go see professional models and pics go to the pay sites somewhere else here on the web.

Here's an idea, if you look at pics that you dont like..keep your mouth shut..and don't look at them again, but first and formost KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.

Just as an example..Playfull Tigress hasnt been seen from since there were some negative comments regarding her post, and also some on a few negative comments on other threads.

Lets all keep Pixies the great place that it is and use our heads.

I'm with you 1000000% on that one!!!

Seems like just as I started to post my own pics, there's been an onslaught of negative comments. I've been lucky; I've been spared those. But I feel for the people who have had to deal with them, and it also makes me more than a little hesitant to want to post more. I get such a great thrill out of sharing my pics, knowing that other people are enjoying them, but I know that the first negative comment I get will be a major blow. And every time another woman (or man, for that matter) gets a negative comment, I feel it keenly because I'm aware that it's completely arbitrary whether the comment goes to them or to me.

So please, folks, for the sake of all of us who post pics, keep the negativity to yourselves. As NutWorld says, you can always go elsewhere if this isn't the site for you; but I know one thing for sure, and that is that Pixies' is the place for me!

(Forget the soap-box, I think I need some pom-poms and a mini-skirt --- I'm turning into a regular cheerleader here!)

I agree, remember, these are real people behind the funny names, with real feelings... you can't un-ring a bell...



(now, I'll take my vision of SFC's pom-poms to bed with me)

I agree too one of the greatest things about this site is that the people are real no one claims to be a galmor model or anything like that we are real people who are accepted here and for the most part get along I have never talked to anyone here lol but would do so if the chance ever took place.

I have to agree!Nutworld;you don't use the soapbox; unless you
ask permission!Remember-Better to be pissed off then pissed on.
My poor attempt at a little humor because I know what its like to
be mad!As they say in AA."Keep your mouth shut and your ears
open."As said-If you don't like what you see-Don't look anymore.
In defense;and I hate steriotyping;You don't see the" old timers"
being derrogotory to people that much!It seems as if the people
that have been here for awhile know that people have feelings!
New people;don't get riled.I am just making a general statement.

Nutworld---I am glad that you said something!I have noticed the
same thing myself!

Im with ya all the way nutworld.I have kept my mouth shut over it because i have a short temper and been into to many fights in person because of assholes on the net.First people say this board is for people to express there opinions and feelings and when they do they get bitched and and told to leave.We had a big ordeal recently saying to many people dont post or anything and when they do and there not regulars they get flushed out so to speak.I agree totally that if its something u dont wanna read or see dont look at it.

well i agree as well nutworld but have kept quiet because i have only been posting since december and am still hesatant about jumping in on some things because although i get the feeling everyone here is great im still a bit shy in a way

scorpi42---Don't be shy.Jump in.That's how people get to know
your views on things.I have read certain replies and gotten incensed;then I thought "No!"I interpreted that wrong.That person doesn't think like that!they are a pretty good person.

That's reason #1 why I love Pixies! Real people aren't auditioned, hired and then airbrushed to hide imperfections. Imperfections are what makes us all unique, and to me, that uniqueness is very sexy. I appreciate it when anyone shows the guts to post a pic and take the risk of what people may think. I believe it's our responsibility after viewing a posted pic to show the maturity to respond with encouragement... or not respond at all! If no one posts a favorable response, then a message is sent that implies it wasn't liked all that well without a hurtful comment. Fortunately the tastes here vary as much as the types of people that post pics. If you post, there's almost, (note: 'almost') , a guarantee that someone here will be into it.
And a message for those that are eager to be "honest" and put someone down... try and look for something appealing in the post first, if you don't see something that strikes you, your silence could be considered a reflection of your opinion. The beautiful part is that a non-response doesn't have to mean a negative one.
Heck, Pixies has a couple thousand registered users, I think, so there's bound to be a favorable response from someone! My first post only got about 4-5 responses..., (Which I think is pretty average for the Mens pics section), but personally, I'll focus on the responses I got, not the ones I didn't! So instead of taking the time to put someone down, why not check out a different thread that's more to your tastes...
Well, I've said my peace. (At least for now!)

Better get down from here... all this Washington rain is making the roof slippery...

A forum is a place where people come to speak.

Ours is no different.

Positive criticism is to be applauded, but nasty put-downs

are not our style.

As members of the forum we expect your opinions.

Speak them well.

Hey Irish,

I wasn't sure whom to ask permission from..that soapbox has been a busy little bugger to track down, so when I got a hold of it....and man am I out of shape...I took it and jumped on w/o asking, sorry.!!

It won't happen again....err maybe.
