I've lurked here for a while, and I've seen lots of people post stuff about how wonderful the community is here.

Personally, I don't see that. I see a lot of bullying, snideness, oneupmanship etc.

For me, the saddest thing is that I'll be slated for posting as a dreaded 'guest'

A bit of love and friendship would help here, I think

Love and peace to you all
