Hello Moonkin -- I hope you will rethink your interpretation of the facts.

You did not receive responses to a post you made when needy, within the time frame you desired. That's the fact.

The interpretation is that the reason this occurred is because you are hated.

Here is another face: One of your posts has 20 responses.

My interpretation: That is a lot to me. Sometimes, I don't get any or only 3 or 4, and it takes a day or more to get even that many.

Fact: You posted at 10:18 last night, and by 9-something this morning, started this thread about people hating you.

Here are facts that may give you reasons to rethink your interpretation of whether the lack of responses mean that people hate you:

Personally, I am offline and heading toward bed by 10 p.m. If I were employed, I would not see your 10 p.m. post until the following day in the evening, so I would not be able to fulfill your expectation of a fast responses.

People here are in many different time zones, with many different schedules.

As two people have already observed, we come here with our own problems, too. We are not professional counselors, although I have noticed that some people who have been here for years try to give back to the community by sharing during the times when we are strong as well as reaching out when we are needy.

As others have commented, many of us cannot read every post.

In sum, there are many reasons why people did not respond between 10 p.m. and 9 a.m. These reasons do not seem to add up to "We hate Moonkin."
