I think there are many forum threads in PC where the expectation is that people will just be loose and have some fun. I don't view those threads as "support" threads; therefore I don't feel threatened or take anything personally when I read what someone has posted.

I have chosen many times not to respond to someone's post because I can't say something supportive.

We all have different ways of communicating. I have seen where a responsive post that sounds very benign to me will set someone else off.

Each of us is in a different place- just learning, starting to accept, in the middle, making progress, succeeding... I think each of us responds to others depending upon where we are in the spectrum.

I would hope that if someone really has an issue with what I post, they will PM me and express their concern.
