(17,296 posts)73. My post was just in jest
But I have seen people, particularly newcomers, abandon this site rather quickly due to having their opinions attacked. It can be a rough ride at times. Sometimes the accusations made by other posters are plain ridiculous: overstated and unsupported. I've been targeted by that a few times. I just let it slide. If there's a real concern then someone will "alert" on your post and a jury will remove it.
