I used to absolutely love the Minnesota board, as to why when I knew "Leah" was coming back this is the first board I came to saying hello...even though I knew it is not the first place I would travel. I love Minnesota and the people in it, but this board is out of control, something like high school.  

One simple thing about maturity is understanding that not all people have the same views as you. It is okay to try to look at things from another perspective, even if you don't agree, and be nice. If we all had the same thought process and views the world would be a very boring place.

Here are some simple, healthy things you can do to relieve stress, as stress is the leading cause of negativity.
Listen to music.
Call a friend.
Eat healthy.
Take a deep breath.
Laugh. If you need help, watch a funny movie.
Drink green tea.
Go to yoga, the gym, take a nice walk, zumba class, or any simple exercise.
Sleep better.
Read a good book.
Meditate.
Start a journal or write poems.
Go get a massage.
Get a pet.
Chew a stick of gum.
Take a bubble bath.
Have sex.
Take a trip to the lake (there are 11,842 in the state) or go to Duluth as that city has natural relaxing effects.  

Start small and work your way into a stress-free life--combating and eliminating negative thoughts and behavior.

Can't we all just get along??? If you are considering posting negative comments, please check the list and try one of the suggestions instead. I would really like to truly enjoy my favorite board again!!

Agree with you...

Wish the MN forum was friendlier, less "us vs. them", not so negative with people (providers and hobbyists both) attacking or defending their vkews, and so on. I don't even like coming here most of the time.

Thanks for writing this, especially your "list" of positive things.

Hope I'm not called a White Knight now lol.

Many just define trolling or a "negative comment" to one that doesn't necessarily agree with their own.

Having respect for and civility toward other people helps ease the negative vibs in the world.
Inner peace and happiness makes life a much more pleasant experience.

In my eyes a "negative comment" is when a person intentionally belittles another person, their actions, or their thoughts. It is perfectly fine and normal not agreeing with other's....it is the way it is at times handled that is bothersome. Life is about interpretation, and there is no right or wrong in most things.

in comparison to the rest of the world, and we should all stick together--at least to a certain extent. Most of the people in this world we live in will never get to experience the joys of the hobby. The politicians, law-makers, and society are the ones against us--we should not be against each other.

Be happy!! Enjoy life!! We are privileged to have found and be a part of this special world.

People like you who put sex way at the bottom of your list, that is what's causing all the problems.

I have to disagree with one point you made - some of the politicians and lawmakers might be against us (or 'you'...meaning providers) in words only as their deeds have shown otherwise.lol.

As for the majority of society, with the exception of the very happily married if there are any, the rest are fools! But to each their own...
