i think the thing to remember is that we are all here for a reason. and at times we all get hurt while we are here. and it's unfortunate, very much so. but, we have to choose whether the pros outweigh the cons. so, some people are more sensitive than others. i know that i often post things that i wonder if others are offended by (and that's not my intention, i just know that at times it helps to smile when the board looks blue).
but, i do know that no one (and i mean no one) will run me off (except perhaps mr bob :) until i'm good and ready to leave. so, complain, curse, knock on my door if you must. but, everyone else has just as much right to be here as the last person. no one can run another person off this board (again, with the exception of dr. bob) unless that person lets someone get to them. i try not to allow other people to get to me that much. i realize that people sometimes complain. and sometimes people say things that hurt my feelings as well (huh? i have feelings?) but, they are entitled to their feelings as much as i am. i choose to either ignore the comment or respond. just remember that when responding, do so in a CIVIL manner. if not, you may get booted for a while, and that's not pleasant :(
i find the best thing to do is ignore it, unless it is something that i feel i must say. then i go at it.
