<p>I signed on tonight after not being on for several days. I noticed the green boxes were gone. I was not into the whole green box “thing”. I do sympathize with those bothered by it. I felt it was a bit too “middle school”, and did feel like there was an in crowd. </p>
<p>But reading the entries of those who participated, it sounds like you guys were just having fun. Did you really include everyone? And I mean by that, did everyone who posted get a green square? Or did you have to be cleaver or funny or deep?</p>
<p>I started a thread a few weeks ago. The thread got positive feedback and I received several PMs supporting the thread. I noticed another green box after this thread started. (it has since died, haha–50 and over moderate diet/exercise thread or maybe it was over 50 moderate diet/exercise). Whatever.</p>
<p>I thought to myself that earning a box felt better than gaming it, which I felt this thread did. </p>
<p>But if you guys had fun and made friends, more power to you.</p>
<p>But I was still distracted by all the green.</p>
