OK, maybe I'm just getting myself in a pile of s*it now (pardon the term), but lately GC doesn't seem to be a very friendly/inviting place at all.
The stuff with TKE/EX bites, but also, I feel that a certain individual (you all know who I am talking about) has received SO much criticism and perhaps hate from many regulars. I understand that her posts are not always great, and that some of her topics were extremely controversial, but c'mon, she's human (like we all are), and humans make mistakes. Almost every topic she's started recently has generated insults from every which way you look, even if the topic itself was fine. If you don't like her - why bother posting to her???????? It's just creating a very hostile environment. I feel for her, b/c if she tries to join in conversation, ppl just make nasty comments.
Sorry if this offends anyone, but sometimes I just don't understand why ppl must continue bullying others with insults, which undoubtedly must hurt a lot. (It reminds me of the bully vs. the poor, powerless kid in elementary school.)
*stepping off the soapbox now*
