I’ve noticed that there seems to be an emphasis on being extremely serious at all times, as if every single comment is a PhD dissertation being evaluated or something. There’s like this weird, subtle one upmanship about every little thing and a lot of people are very nitpicky and judgmental. It kind of takes the fun out of being on here, TBH. Or am I the only one experiencing this?


Not in the communities I frequent, but lurking in other communities I have come across hostility that I felt was unneeded. It’s as if someone had a bad day and they take out the frustration by derailing the conversation or name-calling.
