Some of you did just that. . .which proved my point. There are those who can answer just the question and are willing to provide answers and there are those of you who take it one step further by adding such harsh, judgmental words or just plain contempt instead of just answering the question !
My hope was that by bringing this to your attention people may think twice about how they approach the question. An OP shounldn't have to go into every little detail and aspect of there life situation before a member deems them worthy of a respectful response. I would hope that it could be managed with a little more grace and kindness. But, Oh well I tried.
I got a lot of input and reasonable responses from you with some very valid points. Others just didn't get it . . .

I'm not talking about this thread, I am referring to a percentage (NOT All) replies to OP's questions that they seek answers to here on YT. Please don't think that I am not talking about YT in general. That is not the case in any way. I totaly enjoy spending long hours here in the YT community. Why else would I make myself a target by starting this thread.
Belive me, I dont like conflict in any way. Thats not who I am. In my life I run the other way. I try to live a drama free life. But I do care enough to listen, and I am very opinionated and straight to the point. I dont coddle or beat around the bush. But underneath all of that I am a very caring person. Although that may be up for debate right now !!
I'm not sure why I cant be that way here. I guess maybe I just dont want to be labeled one of those people . . . uhh uhhh, not me. "Call me fake" (I really hope you dont) but whatever. I just cant do it. I would rather get my point across in the most respectful, kind hearted way as I can.
That being said, by starting this thread I now understand a bit better why some members reply in the manner they do. I get it . . .but, I may have never known if I hadn't asked ! |
OK...maybe I am confused. It sure did appear to me that you were referring to this thread. You just quoted only a piece of it...if you look at the entire highlighted and red sentence above, it sure looks to me like it was THIS thread that had you calling people harsh, judgemental and full of contempt. I personally thought it was a bit over the top.
