I agree that it's hard for us to know how people will take something we say, you can't tell tone from a computer screen. Everyone needs to reread what they type before hitting "post" and see if it could offend someone.
I remember the Family Board had gotten so bad, I was afraid to post, people attacked you and even though there were nice people there, I was afraid the bad ones would come out and slam me. When you are feeling blue about something or just need opinions, you need people to talk to, not people who judge you actions.
If we all check our posts and think about what we write it will stay a nice place. Opinions can still be contradicting, but you can be civil about it.
