Is there something wrong with MFK

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I was one of the first. Several others followed.

Still, I dont like it.
 
I just read that thread for the first time, looked to me like there were quite a few that were not in favor of the video. Either way, that still does not make up the whole image of the forum...People r entitled to their own likes & dislikes ~ there r much worse videos/pics out there.

There is always something worse. My only point was to bring up where someone would have got the impression. Somebody may have only stayed long enough to read that post. There were others also in that time frame that were very similar.

Not one of the first...you were the first. I think it was a good show to have a mod say that this kind of think doesn't represent the hobby.
 
We can have our own perception of what the hobby should or should not be . But it is just that, a perception. What one group of people does with the hobby might not be considered a " real representation" by another. There are a lot of reasons, it could be cultural , the manner the fishes are kept, or even the type of fish being kept themselves.

This was said in a thread earlier by someone who is a member but not a regular poster here.

"What I find sad is that MFK for all the experienced members seems to be a haven for people like this. People who are more inclined to get their kicks off of fighting fish and mutilating them. IMO these people need to get burned out of the hobby. because they are ultimatly the ones that are ****ing it up for the rest of us."

Anyone agree with this? We're now a "haven" for people with bad ideas?

I thought MFK was great. Sure we get our share of idiots but every fish site does and actually thought there were less here.

So anyways anyone agree with the qoute above?

maybe we should look at this quote in context.

this is the thread that came up when i searched the quote.

Punk Rock Oscars! Video n' Pix

when i see this thread, i understand why this person is so angry, but they shouldn't blame things like this on MFK.

yay for looking at things in context!
 
In that thread or out of that thread it still means the same when you say it.

What I mean't by this whole thread was to find out if anyone else felt the same way as that person and thinks this place is a haven for stupid people. I always thought the opposite, and have found way more idiots which any public site will have on other forums.
 
I don't fight my fish ...and all i have see here so far is people who love their fish and try to give great advice ...there are loosers in every crowd ..i don't let it get to me

i think that MFK is brings you around the world, around all different cultures.. around all different walks of life, brings you all different perspective and information you cannot obtain in books.. And age and gender does not matter..... we all seem to unite into one big ocean of fish..there's always going to be that species that you just don't understand, that just does not look right.. or does not fit in... and maybe you don't even like.. but the big pool is big enough and growing bigger all the time.. and it is always the few really good ones that make the swim worthwhile.......... ;)
 
the site has its "stupid" people and has its mentors. its what makes this site good. most will learn some will be banned and others will lurk and hide. its the internet nothing you can do. but as long as the main members like the site its all that matters
