I just wanted to say this,
I have been gone for a little while, but I have been reading posts that concern this topic. I feel as though I need to say something.
People who are members of this community do not try to "band" together to make others feel bad or to ignore them. UNLESS someone comes to this community and is behaving inappriopiately, which does not happen frequently.
Just because someone does not post about themselves, goes through quiet spells, or is a newbie does not make them a person that the other members of the community are against. We love new people...as long as they are caring and not trying to hurt others.
I usely do not speak on the behalf of others because I do not feel it is appriopiate, but I felt that it was important to do so in this place since I have been around for awhile.
Please everyone let's not turn against each other!! Especially for no reason.
