In Reply to: Why do people leave forums ? posted by cwatbay on November 12, 1999 at 19:32:52:

Now, I'm going to be pretentious here, and speak for the entire forum. You seem to have a problem with the harsh attitudes as of late in the monitor forum. That I will agree, has gotten a bit out of hand. However, there is some level of justification on the part of the angry mob. :)

Look at the kind of stuff that's been going on lately. That Elielzer guy, "Numb-nuts", that whole thing with the water monitor in the 10 gal, and all of the other little "jokes" intended to get a rise out of the forum members. After all of this kind of stuff in the span of one month, has made the forum members a bit snippy, and maybe, rightly so. There have been few who haven't been caught in some kind of deception, that have voiced their disgust with the forum. You seem to be an exception. The one thing I can't understand is why someone who's been posting seemingly as long as the rest of us taking things so personally? Maybe you haven't been in as long as I think you have, but these episodes come in waves every so often.

The first incident seems to have been the whole Bott fiasco, and it has steadily grown from there. I think now, the pissyness has peaked, and is slowly dying down. However, I don't think singling out members of the forum like Andy or Guy, is going to help matters. It was the singling out of a long time poster that started all of this in the first place. Even though that person was right. This is not to say that members can't disagree, but flaming, in any form, is best left to personal correspondence.

Now all preaching aside, I think I can speak for most, when saying that we do not wish you, or anyone else with non-antagonistic motives, to leave the forum. Things are going back to normal. Just takes a little time without any more incidents.
