Well, i should be that way. It is hard enough for men to come out with their insecurities about their penis and ask for help, but when a website, that is supposed to be in support of these fears, ridicules these people for their lack of knowledge...well, these places need to be exposed for their insincerity and disenfranchised for their ill motives! This is not only directed at T's Place, but any place that plays on the insecurities of men who reach out for help, and are treated with disrespect and solitude.

I know, when I started Penis Enlargement, I had VERY LITTLE KNOWLEDGE. Thank God I was able to ask for help by the likes of peforum.net. They always made me feel comfortable and my inquiries, as simple as they may have been, were always handled with the highest respect and I was given feedback that made me feel more secure about my own manhood.
[words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] was created out of the wreckage of these insecurities. Our membership grew as if it were the "Island of Misfit Toys." Our original members came to [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] as they were banned from T's Place. We were looked upon as a pathetic bunch, but our honesty, dedication and respect for one another shined through to prove our real support for one another and the knowledge, of Penis Enlargement, we so generously shared...shared to more than 100,000 men! It never mattered how many times a newbie asked "How do I jelq?", we were always there to explain this to them, no matter how many times we already had done so. We never pointed them toward a search engine or the "forum Guidelines" we shared our awareness with complete dedication to the miracle of Penis Enlargement we were given.

Being collectively, and negatively judged on the questions we ask, only antagonizes the answers we so desperately fear. The fears that gather in the halls of our ignorance only quite themselves on the humbleness of the gift of a collective truth and freely given awareness!

Amen!! And it takes a lot of courage to post on these forums to begin with!! This may sound silly, but I was shaking when I first posted on a P.E. site, in my case, Th*nd3r's. And yet my need to share what I had learned about P.E. and my accomplishments on my own, (before I discovered Th*nd3r's), and my desire to support others in this endeavor, outweighed my desire to remain totally anonymous.

Yes, it takes guts to post and share. Many of us are "shame-based," (whatever the size of our genitals), and we fear negative criticism, ridicule, and rejection. When I finally stood up to the ass-holes at T's, I was actually proud when Thunder banned me.

My rant:

Th*nd3rs is a very poor site.

It is far too complex.
There is poor organization of information.
The color scheme/design is dark and ugly.
There are too many members to create a community feeling.
There is too much nastiness, bitchiness, and insulting behavior.
Getting a membership is awkward.
Moderators do not respect their own rules.
Newbies are often treated badly.

The above things are not a recipie for a good website. Also, all these problems could be fixed. It just takes good leadership.

Even the problem of too many members could be resolved. Things such as, allowing non-members to view the whole site, would reduce the number of users being forced to sign up. Organizing more prominent and easier to read (and find) guides on all aspects of Penis Enlargement would likewise reduce sign-ups and newbie questions.

Alternatively, an extreme measure to solve the too-many-users problem is splitting the site into geographic regions. Such as a Th*nd3rs Pl@ce USA, and another site called Th*nd3rs Pl@ce Europe, another called Th*nd3rs Pl@ce Latino, etc, etc.

But the point is, the site has severe problems due to poor leadership, organization, design, and foresight. It could be much better than it is.

He got banned from MOS some years ago too. He has since moved on to R3dd1t.

I believe the site is still going well. They're screening more due to just bad bantering and useless arguments among members. I couldn't get my old account there going either. I believe they did inactive account purging a few times.

If you're from matters of size, and they know that they will never approve your membership. I'm not sure if I lost mine yet because I don't go to that site.It's just a waste of time. All they do is argue about silly things. I'm so glad we're different here in the brotherhood, where we all have love and respect with each another.And be able to argue a point without getting upset.
