| Local information, exchange of ideas and reasonable discussion about stuff that interests the members. Problem is... long ago I stopped making any comment on anything pretty much unless it related to a factual request for info, because I became afraid to post an opinion in case I was targeted with nasty comments. Now, I would not so much be bothered if someone was nasty to me but I still rarely respond to reasonable threads because I know a core of male and female regulars will hijack the thread by taking it as an opportunity to put words in each others mouths, dredge up past insults and generally be unpleasant and full of temper. As appears to have happened above. Once I see a handful of names on a thread I stop reading it. And am unlikely to read any responses by others in case I see them getting drawn into the slanging match. |
