All my pics have been deleted, yup, gone is in everything!, deleted the profile, username profile, flogging of myself, public apologies (numerous times).
Doodle and I have only shared once or twice (I posted on his thread about my long hair but never got a response) so I pretty much got the message, that's ok, I got it.
So why I'm I doing this?, I just don't see the value in loosing ones opinion, even if there's no communication between us.
Perhaps it's what I've experienced in life, a couple of near death experience's, being robbed, beaten, and a few other other things I'd rather not mention, but those scars have shaped me into who I am, better or worse, better I hope!
So, I don't see anybody else making the effort for the changes to be more comfortable.
Why?

Yes it's change but... Oh fer cryin' out loud... Look, without speaking for Doodlebug (we've never had much of an exchange either), the current atmosphere here is not that people are sharing progress pics, or even other pics when appropriate... Yours are probably more inspiration than you realize, and I certainly don't want, or expect you (or anyone else) to immediately self censor because it may or may not offend. I have no plan or real interest in going through my pics and post to find something that could be considered offensive.
And I gotta say, if I wake up one day with I really nice set of DD's, you better believe my profile pic would be showing those off!
What I like to see/read is post that are more substantive. In the past year I've seen a LOT of "tweet-like" posts. This isn't Twitter, and much of the time I can't for the life of me figure out what the poster is trying to convey in under 50 words - is it a joke? An insult? A rant? Do they want a response and what kind of response?
Short posts are great, if you're simply agreeing, passing along a sentiment, or sharing a simple fact/item/link - heck I'm guilty of it myself sometimes. But if you really want to share and converse, give me more context and substance. It generally sparks a better exchange.
Please, communicate how and what YOU please, don't expect not to be called on it, but that shouldn't stop anyone from trying. If three or more people are having a lively, baudy, friendly conversation at no one's expense, that also happens to be offensive to others oh well... They're having fun! I see stuff on TV all the time that I find offensive - I turn the channel or leave the room.
At some point I might expect them to take it elsewhere, or somebody may ask them to do so, but again, oh well.
