   So Chris, having complained about LUGNET, and now moved on to complain about JLUG (my two favourite forums, incidentally), can I ask you what site you plan to complain about next? Wikipedia?

I did not complain about LUGNET.

Well, Chris, please accept my apologies for misunderstanding you on both of these points. I will endeavour to grok your future posts better.

   However I did complain about the public behavior of many of the posters on that board. Reading the threads over there, I had the same kind of reaction that I have whenever I see somebody proudly making a complete @$$ of themself in public. It makes me wonder what kind of horrors they must have suffered during childhood that made them into such damaged adults. So damaged that they don’t show the least bit of remorse after they purposely go out of their way to hurt others.

I do find it enlightening to compare the remarks that people post here with the remarks they post over there.

Yes, I’ve noticed a difference between the remarks that people post here with the remarks they post over there, but, until now, I’d always thought that was due to they being seperate fora, rather than it being due to childhood trauma. Live and learn, eh?


Cheers
