One of the things I see myself advising new members (when I can almost see their hackles raising at the way they are being addressed right off)quite frequently is to develop a thick skin rather than writing this site off immediately because someone treated them in a less than courteous manner right off the bat.
If I went looking, I could probably pick this site apart, but what's the point? Instead, let me commend those who manage and participate in this less than perfect refuge some of us (in varying degrees) escape into from our less than perfect real worlds. In the end, all we can be held accountable for is our actions, not what we perceive as the imperfect actions of others.
Yes, Jim, a member told me this weekend that he hardly ever comes on the site any more because it has gotten to be too much like a bunch of old women fussing.
