fishy input pleeeeeeease

[queen bee]

As ive said a hundred-n-one times before, i love this board. It was the first bb i came to, and i continue to come here.

This bb does move slower than the others', which i think is a good thing, it gives those :fishy ies that come here a chance to keep up and for everyone that posts here to be heard. However, like most others that swim here, i tend to spend most of time on the other bbs. Simply because i feel more challenged on the other bbs. Im not talking bout personal attack, but we are eating disordered, behaviourally and mentally. The behaviour as well as the thought process behinds it i think needs to be clhallenged and explored.

I think sometimes its easier (myself included) to say 'i purged' or 'i restricted' without any thought as to why etc. I think we owe it to each other, aswell as to ourselves to challenge each other more.

We have such an opportunity here on the misc bb, because of the slow pace to do exactly that---to challenge but in a respectful way.

I hope you dont mind. I just feel i could 'do' a lot more, as well as gain a lot more, if i knew ppl werent going to be offended by a bit of intensity sometimes. This isnt meant in a hurtfulw way, its just a suggestion

What do you think :fishy ies????

queen bee,
i also feel more *challenged* on other boards. but i like the slow pace and kind of.. non-confrontational approach on this bb. not to say i wouldnt mind a little more challenge :grin.

Challenge is a good thing and would be a welcome change on this board. You guys are right it moves slower and therefore would give us time to reflect on the challenges given.

I say it's a great idea. I :love this board, because it's more intimate than the others.

Bring on the challenges

:love Adrienne

BTW I've started a thread for a challenge, it's a start.

Maybe we can try to start new challenges everyday. It may be hard to do sometimes, but let's see where we can go with it.

I like to think I DO challenge other :fishy
However, as this is the first board many guppies :cute come to, it would be unfair to throw the challenges straight at them.

However, as time progresses and they visit the board more often, challenges are often thrown down.

So bring on the challenges :grin

I am a A/B board girl myself, but i can understand what you are saying. Sometimes I like to be challenged as I do post very depressing low worrying things sometimes and they make me root deeper into my thoughts which I think is better than burying them.

But i do understnad what you are saying
