    Me too.

    At minimum get rid of the original post completely. I can live with it being quoted.

    Sometimes I wonder if this whole "Geo" thing isn't a little juvenile or sophomoric,, I mean with the "likes" and all.

    There even seems to be cliques and "best friends forever" on here who always back each other...

    But at the end of the day, it is a good way to kill time

    Human beings are hard-wired to interact socially. Geo is just a modern version of the pub. Without having to waste money on booze.

    Lets not confuse Geo with actual face to face interaction. They are far different things.

    Are they? I don't think so. I've met many Geoexpatters in real life and they are much the same as they are on here. I know my views dont change in real life!

    EDIT - the more obvious trolls excepted, of course.

    Yes. This. And that's why we should have a proper ignore function.

    Than why ever leave the house? Just conduct all your business via email, whatsapp and SMSing??

    Because face to face interaction is far different.

    Unfortunately I don't have time to sit in a pub all day though.

    So you are saying that all the time you spend on Geo, you used to spend at a pub chatting it up with other patrons?

    Ok, I'll drink to that
