To be fair?
The title of your initial post was called "A little help please", so people are going to offer you advice, assistance, and support in the context of this site, yes.

The encouragement for you to stay is nothing other than that. If you choose to see it as anything else- that is how you choose to view it.

The common themes here are really that people are trying their darndest to explain to you why your posts may not have shown up, understand your frustration, and offer as much support to you as possible.

If you don't want that, it's obviously your choice- but you do keep coming back to this thread.

If your post was intended to be an announcement of "I'm pissed off and this site can't help me" maybe the title should reflect that so people aren't offering support, information and advice that you won't actually appreciate.

I mean, pretty much it just seems like you made up your mind that you don't want to be here before you even reached the 5 post mark, and then misrepresented what you want out of this thread.

That's frustrating, I'm going to be honest.

I'm going to keep my account active to keep these posts alive so the lot of you can reflect on your responses and hopefully others can see how new members are treated here.
The posts will stay whether your account is active or not.
If you were to look at pretty much any of the "intro" posts, where people initially say hi and talk about why they are here, you will see across the board nothing but welcoming, friendly, helpful and kind. That will also for the most part be seen in this thread. I'm not sure if you are attempting to expose some systematic abuse of "new" members, but it's not actually there, so that would be an unsuccessful endeavor.

But you will also see, in general in the world, what you are looking for if you are only seeking something specific.

I would offer further encouragement here, but it doesn't seem to be what you want- every effort to give you such has been met with disdain, negativity and argument.

If you don't want to be here, no one is forcing you. But you haven't been targeted as a "new person" and also... no one is telling you to keep returning to this thread.

There are many helpful people here if you choose to accept their support, but obviously no one can force that on your and I don't think anyone would even try.

Be well.

ETA: I also don't see anywhere in your postings that any of this has any actual seat in reality. Is it possible you have signed up for two different communities and are conflating the experiences you have had at both?
Thanks for this!
