wxyz_1234,

While I may be more sympathetic to your criticism than some, I am unsure that your post was the best way to effect change. As Oldfart pointed out, Pixies is a community. As I read through the posts following yours, I see the community members closing ranks in the face of a threat, and your post is a threat.

You have told Pixies Place posters that we are doing it wrong. I must disagree with you. I can not and have not visited enough other sites “like” Pixies to be able to claim some sort of global knowledge, but I have visited more sedate sites, and more rowdy sites – one in particular. Some of the posts at that site were nastier that those you will see used by members at members here. That is why I no longer go there.

I also question your decision to send the PMs. They seem to have been clones of your post. What was the idea behind that?

The reason that the people who post here continue to post here is that they get what they want here. If you have been a member long enough to remember the heyday of cowgirltease, you too must get some sustenance here, even if posts in some of the threads are be more intense than you prefer. Just a suggestion, but if/when you see some thread getting too harsh, leave it alone. Do not open it.

Pixies should be a place you want to visit, not an ordeal.
