Usually whoever dislikes me won't stop me from coming back for more unless if I get slammed very hard (sanctions?), because I'm used to it.
 
Glad you decided to stay. I have a pretty good vibe about this place so far even though many seem to disagree with much of what I say. Over all people seem to be pretty mature about things though and open to other opinions. I've been on places where people were just downright nasty. Then again maybe I haven't been on here long enough. ;)

What if you had gotten banned when you asked for it? Would you have made another account?

I'm guessing he never asked for his account to be deleted; just said he was leaving, you can still keep your account.

Actually, he asked for it to be banned or "whatever we do" but luckily neither was done.

I suppose he done nothing.. banable, but it would have been mighty temping :D
 
Only been a member a little while but i've come to expect '' I hate this place '' threads...it seems to be a venting thing...even when people pretend to be kidding but actually mean it.

Some people take this forum far too seriously, it's a good place that can help people, but there's a lot of people with a lot of opinions, and because of this, there will be friction at some point.

I disagree with you!

This is true, however why the public grandstanding ? why not take their grievance to PM or the Mods/Admins ? why the drama ?

Some possibilities:

1. Bring it to the attention of the forum in the hope it'll make a difference.
2. Try to get people on their side.
3. Try to kick back up a fuss.
4. Try to get rep.
5. Like the attention.
6. Something to do.

It's pretty much going to be what you make it. If you don't say much, you won't be heard. If you've got a chip on your shoulder and a ****** attitude chances are good you'll get called on it. Having a fairly open mind, being receptive, and curbing childish insults seems to help with the friendliness.

There's actually a lot of sharing here that's interesting and gives a sense of community- examples that I've experienced....
-discovery of an artist I like (thanks B.I.)
-a song I'd never heard that I like (thanks G.)
-several really good burns (thanks Eve, 9006, and G. again)
-a healthy dose of "man love"....ummmm, thanks??? Emporer
-some really kind words (thanks lady)
-ongoing harassment (thanks Eve)

-there's more, that's just some of the highlights just in the last few days.

Unwelcoming- I think not...
 
Ok, I'm starting to see why some people might want to leave this place. It seems pretty cool over all but the longer I'm on here the more snippy responses I seem to be coming across. It's becoming apparent to me why some of you are lonely. ;)
