Mean people
When you do have the time I'd appreciate some examples of what you're talking about, if you wouldn't mind.

I can find more examples without going too far into the archives....
Im pretty sick of the "people should grow thicker skin" BS... as well as the thats just my personality & other crap people use to be the brash & discourteous people the are on this forum.... everyone doesnt need, appreciate or grow from the supposedly tough love approach...and Im grateful for those who would rather not post at all than to make this place even more uncomfortable....
If you would'nt say it in the same manner if you were face to face, dont type it that way....
I think DE032713's response to this post was right on. The poster keeps putting up these crazy alien sentences even tho people have asked a hundred times for her (?) to post exactly what she is needing, and to please be clear and fill in pertinent details. If DE032713 didn't say it, I would. It's a complete joke.
The other day someone blasted at me that I sound so aggressive sometimes. Yeah, well, that's me. I'm also very helpful, compassionate, understanding, loving, honest, and WYSIWYG. Softening up over here in Seattle, but always an Upstate NY gal at heart :)

It works if you work it; it sorta works if you sorta work it; and it doesn't work if you don't work it.
@ datachick, my main concern was what if she is not fluent in English? Or she is a little slower than us? Some of the comments were down right rude. Those kind of comments were not going to help her. I guess I try and put myself in other peoples shoes. Not everybody does, I understand. I am here for the other half who might need a gentle nudge.
