Seems like a lot of work to go thru all this and change things around, just as easy for me to ignore the stuff I am not interested in

Of course it is a lot of work. I can understand that completely.
Then again it IS a lot of material to ignore, isn't it?

Maybe create a specific F/M topic and let people try it?
What would be posted from that point on could, maybe, observe these rules.
I'm obviously not proposing for old content to be moved! That would be insane.

Just saying it would save all people a lot of time and at the same time creating a better overall experience.

Yes, separation of the board is good idea, since I absolutely don't like F/F.

I'd really love to know Zweig's or other moderators opinion about this...

I agree with Desertgoodguy in that there seems to be more incidence of female vs female content appearing while I joined the site specifically because it was called malevsfemale.org. That being said, I guess separate forums would be ideal for those of us not wanting to be exposed to the other side of the coin, but it could also greatly increase the cost of the website. I don't want to support anything that could jeopardise the wellbeing of the site, as I am more than happy to sift through female vs female material if it means the site itself is more viable and likely to survive. I really like it here and don't want to lose what we have.

On the subject of correct tagging or identifying materials as m/f or f/f and male wins or girl wins, I do think that is a good idea. I don't know how it would be policed though, but I personally will try to accede to this request in any future posts I create.

Thanks for bringing up the subject, mate.

I think the key thing to note here is that any f/f content being posted is not replacing any f/m material. I think it's safe to assume that nobody is posting it instead of of f/m content. So even if there is a little more f/f content surfacing (of which I've certainly had a hand in), it isn't really making any difference to the overall content of the board. If it wasn't there, there still wouldn't be any more f/m material than is already being posted.

I guess I'm still just trying to get my head around the idea of how the influx of f/f content is a significant waste of anyone's time, at least to such an extent that it would warrant segregating the entire community into 'us' and 'them'. Perhaps any of those people who have voted 'yes' could give a few specific examples of how their time was wasted by encountering content they weren't interested in, and just how much time we're really talking about.

I think I'd be correct in saying that even if we do consider F/M fans and F/F fans as completely separate groups (whilst also acknowledging that there are a lot of people here that do enjoy both), there would be still further individual tastes within those groups, right? All mixed fighting fans don't enjoy the same thing, do they? On that basis, and using the same justification as for the initial board separation, then clearly people would still be potentially 'wasting time' opening posts and threads that don't interest them. And what then? Further segregation? Even more individual sub-forums for wrestling, boxing, martial arts, real action, fantasy action, competitive fights, blondes, brunettes, big women, small women.... Where would it end?

I'm of a mind that says "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." At the end of the day, all we need here is common sense and clear labelling of threads/posts. Plus a basic acceptance that we all like different things and we shouldn't expect people sharing free content to only share the content that we want to see and demand that anyone who isn't should go and share their stuff in their 'own' section.

As someone who prefers f/f to f/m, I still have a hard time understanding why we have to separate the two. I agree with FootPower, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." So people add some f/f to the threads; is that a reason to separate the two? No, as long as everything is clearly explained, there is no problem. If anyone downloads the videos, pictures, artwork, then you can separate them on your storage devices. We don't need any more fixing here.

I'm not really sure on this one either. I've found and made tons of F/F material, but seeing as it's malevsfemale.org, I don't post any of it here. I have seen this happening though, and I would say, yes, female/female should undoubtedly be separated since it's malevsfemale.org.

Segregating???? 'Us' and 'them'? Never mentioned it, never thought of it, never asked for it.

This isn't a prosecution FootPower. A proposal was the term used, remember?? There is no good side / bad side. Not in my mind, at least.

For instance we have a different forum for Female Domination, don't we?.
Do you feel 'that' way towards 'them'??

I never said the forum was broke. I just said it could be even better.
I have a tremendous amount of respect for the people who run this board. I don't know them (not even by nickname) but I know there is a lot of work to maintain a site like this one.

I understand your position (at least I try too) but just ask yourself what exactly would you, as a user, lose if there was two separate forums for F/M and F/F.


ps: Excuse my English. It's not my native language so the occasional spelling/grammar mistake will arise.
