You know, I get a bit tired of reading the thread of posts about what is said, who's not playing nice, who is too critical, and on and on. Since it's tiring and tedious, I hesitate to add one more bit. However, I've been coming here for well over a year, and although I don't post very much, I read the board almost every day. What has been happening here lately is nothing new at all. It has happened several times in the past. The content changes, but the process stays the same. It appears that things run pretty smoothly and diversely on the board until someone posts a message that suggests that someone's way of posting, thinking,writing, or living is WRONG. "You should do so and so, you shouldn't do that." This board is made up of many diverse people with one thing in common. One has to expect many different manners of expression.I guess its about acceptance of our differences.
This phase will pass. Posters who have mean hearts move on if they get no reaction. Its happened before, it will happen again.
I wish all of you PFDN
