I agree that things have taken a bit of a negative turn on here lately..
I'm pretty new on here and don't express my opinions too much..i usually keep things on a pleasant 'chit chat' kinda level..I did decide to express my feelings on a thread about paris Hilton (i'm not a fan i'm afraid! lol) and felt a more experienced member 'shouted me down' for expressing my opinion I wouldn't say she was rude as such...her tone was somewhat 'sarcastic' as she kept quoting everything i had said...it just wasn't a 'friendly' response i felt...maybe i'm a little too sensitive!
this same person then posted on a thread of mine ..but not in response to my thread...she was commenting on a friends post..totally ignoring my thread.(this thread was quite personal to me) Isn't that called 'hijacking'? lol. Just felt that that was a little rude maybe?
anyhow...it's sad when a handful of people are spoiling things for the rest of us.
I really enjoy coming on here...and alot of people were wonderful to me after i lost Heidi.
