waste of time..

Why are most people here on TF?Well, seems painfully obvious that it is just to get attention.Mostly meaningless mindless (vote button) attention from people they hardly know. I don't see any value at all in this.I would like to make real friends, but I cannot call anyone I have met on TF a real friend.Yes, I know I'm not there to come out to the parties, and I don't have time to constantly remind the world of TF of my existence. Isn't there more to real friends than just being able to show up at parties together, or exchange some mindless banter online?Well, I guess it is just me.But it seems that everyone just gets tired of TF and leaves after a while.

You are correct. We all get to this point so, no you are not alone. The vote whores will persist, and so will the perversion. There are genuine people in here as well as out there in the real world. Just post what is on your mind like this journal and people will either reach back, ignore you, or rant back. Those that agree with you, keep them in mind, those that just bicker back. Forget them.

Or just take a break and come back. Like you said, there is more to the world out there than here.

Side note: There are other event planners like Smilysiam that throw events like charities, or camping, or test the waters, and see what TFer's would join you in events you would like to do.

Good luck man. :)

I don't care what you say, Stephen.

I'm still your friend, dammit.

Friends are people you can be away from a long time and when you finally get back together, it feels like it was only yesterday since you were together.

That mood comes and goes to many people who have been members of this site for some time. Depends how much time you spend on it, to some extent. There are meaningful and meaningless (to you) people in any community.

Vote for me, I love you all.

I too have tired of the "banter" but yet i still participate... a lot

I would like to meet more of the people, and i think that the parties are a great idea. One day... one day

CocoaBrotha >> killing myself laughing

dpuma18 >> yes, well, making real friends any where depends on a lot of factors to be sure, just seems that is potential here that is usually just lost in the meaningless stuff..

& Lillydilly >> good to know there are others who feel the same way..

condotown & CMG_UK >> true.. well, someone called TF friends, party friends - people you only see when you go to the same parties (when you go online and post - almost the same) Real friends are people you can call when you feel the need to talk with them. They are not just anyone who will listen or hang out when you happen to be in the same place at the same time. Real friends contact you when they don't hear from you for a while.

you writing this journal is a waste of time........ why write a journal to tell people that your fed up or bored with this site. If thats the case then you can just not log on and ends you deciding if its a waste of time or not.

Well, all these comments and journals for Mike are good to see... makes me think that TF is not as shallow as I was beginning to feel that is was.. I was unaware that he had passed on as I don't often check the front page or the full list of journals.. i usually just check for friends journals..

What you say is true to some extent - like in real life (outside TF)...but I also see your opinion as a bit one-sided, like maybe you close your eyes for the valuable things here Stephen?

I'd never stay here as long as I actually did, if I never met genuine ppl here - and I did. Maybe I'm an attention-seeker, I don't know...I sure like to share my beloved hobby here, and I love to use TF ppl as my victims when I shoot them...is that seeking for attention? Maybe someone would say that - but if you ask me, I just call it good fun with good friends.

So - I think it's really up to yourself as for what you get here. Some days, when I feel pissed inside, I don't see much value here - do I sense that you feel a little down (like most of us do from time to time)?

Look for something valuable and genuine, and you'll find it - look for vote whores, fake ppl and surface-like love and sex hunters, and you'll find them too - it's up to you...

Anntie >> well i felt that way for a while, too.. just looking for more.. it pales when compared to friends i have made in my everyday life..

beej >> see your hiding.. so, i don't know who you are or who you would be to know what I got or didn't get.. just because a few shags have value and meaning for you doesn't mean that the same is true for me. if i got a few shags from some TF party girls who were available for nothing more than a shag.. then it would count as little more than a TF vote by my reckoning.. big deal, a waste of time..

this creates a philosophical dilemma:

if this website is a waste of time, then what is logging in for the sake of posting a journal about how the website is a waste of time? a meta-waste of time maybe? my head hurts just thinking about it (either that or i'm hung over and dehydrated).

beej is chrisso, so he may have an idea or two about what you did or didnt get. a few shags seems adequate return-on-investment for a dating site. i guess if you are crying about what a waste of time they were, then they must not have been very good shags...

Thomas_K, Poul >> your comments are appreciated. i am looking to see if there are many others who agree and i hope to encourage people to make a little more effort to form meaningful friendships and not waste time so much with meaningless stuff. if that is between other people then great. if what have to say interests anyone in getting to know me better then that is great too.. if not then no big deal.. i can say that i'm thinking about how much value spending time here has for me, and considering that my time might be better spent else were..

i realize that a good part if it is just distance.. few people it seems make much effort to maintain long distance friendships.. most people seem to just make new friends as they move on or their friends move on..

I joined this site as another avenue to keep contact with my friends from all around the world, as some are already members. I havent been a member long, and have met few other members. But of the people I have met I can honestly say I have enjoyed their company.
