Itap, Maerilith...I'm really not sure how either of you took what I said to imply some sense of entitlement on my part, when I was fairly clear...and yes, eloquent, in asking about the environment of the community as a whole. Both of you seem to enjoy thinking that I am mad, even trying to make me more angry with your comments. If that is your aim, let me point out that you are failing in that endeavor and doing nothing more than making yourselves look bad in the process. I'm fairly positive that neither of you actually read my original post fully...either that or you didn't understand it. Both of you take me asking about the community as a personal attack on you somehow, and flame me as if I was attacking you directly. I think the question you should ask yourselves is why are you two specifically taking my inquiry as a personal attack? Perhaps you should reread my original post. There isn't much at all to read between the lines. I'm fairly straight forward, so the fact that you take personal offense to what I said gives me (and probably most of the rest in this thread...) the notion that you've both done things that make you feel guilty, so you are lashing out at me for pointing out what I have experienced. Debate 101...the ad hominem attack is the last resort in a failed argument. Psst, the 101 is facetious, implying it's a college level course.
