Being a new member here I kept coming back because I saw how nice and friendly the community was.
I'm not sure what has changed...time and the odds I suppose...but it seems as though people's attitude have really began to change.
I'm sure I'll get flamed for this post but I believe it has to be said.
Judging people based on what they post is totally inappropriate.
Accusations are inappropriate.
Unjustified sarcasm and attitude is also inappropriate.
People have lives and backgrounds and personalities that none of us know anything about, and which are really none of our business. What gives any of us the right to judge the next person? I think some are abusing the anonomous nature of this forum by not giving everyone the respect that they would normally be giving on a face to face level.
I think other than in extreme cases (or in cases in which it is necessary) people should really keep their opinions, comments, accusations, and judging to themselves.
I think that is how the forum was intended to run at the beginning, no?
