I'm sure we can all agree that there's been a lot of hostility around here. I think *all of us* no matter how un-involved, are contributing to it. There are the people who come on here to voice their opinions about how much this board sucks with its *elitist* clique and inside jokes, when clearly.....if you hate it so much, why do you log on?
There are the people who choose to stay anonymous and just log on to make a few derogatory comments here and there, and thats fine...but if you're going to come on here with malicious intent, I think you should be warned that people are not simply just going to sit around and take it. If you can't take it...then don't dish it. Don't hide behind an internet persona trying to fill an empty self-esteem.
Then there are the third party people. The ones that just watch everything unfold and put in their two cents at what they feel is the appropriate time. In essense....these people are just bitching about other people bitching which obviously leads to more bitching. In the end what's left? A lot of resentment.
So in conclusion....i'd just like to say that maybe we should *ALL* relax. I'm not trying to dictate anything here, but since i've been on tribe i've tried to treat other people fairly as I would want them to treat me. More or less, people are free to come on here and say whatever they want....that's the beauty of the internet. The internet has given everyone a voice, if you use that voice to make derogatory remarks to complete strangers, then you better expect you're gonna get the same thing back. If you feel that you need to stick up for someone, then you better believe that someone isn't going to agree with you're sticking up for that person. In any given situation there are only a limited number of ways to deal with it. Night cannot exist without day, good cannot exist without evil. I think we should all just sit back, look at the big picture....and try to relax.

P.P.S. I think some of us need to differentiate the board from reality....
