| I have to agree with several points made by HT429 and for somewhat similar reasons. I have really cut back on my open participation in the forum and rarely post as I once did (which probably comes as great relief to many people here). I have some cool models that I have purchased recently but I'm not saying anything about them here. I just contact a few fellow members / friends and chat about them directly via email or PM. I also found it necessary to populate my ignore list. I hate to say it, but my enthusiasm has been dampened a great deal by some of these problems and individuals.
I guess it boils down to the fact that I have to deal with this in the real world, on a daily basis - and I don't need it in my "happy place." It shouldn't be that way but it is. |
Wow -- my sentiments exactly. Brave. Frankly, I barely give a toss anymore.
