People can be rude or inconsiderate, maybe we just have to put up with that. We do, i believe have a great site here and are left pretty much to interact in many different ways.
I encouraged someone to come into the forums earlier this week. She put up an introduction thread but was ridiculed by a couple of people for making a simple puntuation mistake. Needless to say, she hasnt been back.
