I wouldn't say you were on crack or senile, etc., if you said you hated CC. What's it to me, if you don't like it? And I see no harm in people knowing what there is to love, and what there is to hate about this town.
If you think I said you are on crack or senile you need to go back and read my posts.

If you are this defensive about anything anyone says, you need therapy.

I was referring to the other posts, too.

It's just weird, like if, I were to spend all my time in the Oakland forums even though I don't live in Oakland, yet spent a ton of time making bad comments about the place.
Well some of us do currently live in Sacramento and strongly dislike it. If you are young and looking for a great night life, entertainment options, and culture/arts you are totally out of luck in Sacramento. The city just can't compare with other similarly sized cities (Portland, Austin etc). People actually go out of their way to visit those cities, and no one comes to Sac to visit (and honestly why would they).

I look forward to leaving Sacramento in a few years. It's definitely a city that's not for everyone.

Funny. Even though she doesn't live there, she bashes Oakland in Bay Area threads too

You should leave now! I'm serious, I just checked your posts and about 98% were focused on how horrible Sacramento is, I think a change of scenery would be good for you, and the sooner the better

If there were more positive things to say I'd be the first to say them.

My comments are not directed to just you sleepy, but to this attitude.

my god. It's not always that easy. Why not just let posters share his/her opinion?

I'd hate to move to an area based on glowy reports because the pro-x posters harrased those who disagreed with them to the point, they stoppped posting. Some of my worst experiences since living here is using a highly recommended service. People need to see both sides, and weigh it out. I hope people are actually talking to real people vs those on an annonymous forum to make their decisions.

I get that and I've lived in places where I was unhappy, but sometimes it is more helpful to avoid fixating on your dissatisfaction and spend your time more productively, like planning your exit or getting out and looking for positive aspects about where you live

I'm not going to judge whether the poster is using their time productively or not.
Just because one's posts lean more to the negative (or against the general opinion) does not make them a troll.

it is their right to post just like everyone else.
Whatever happened to tolerance? Oh yeah, we are in the times of being offended.

Those who push tolerance typically are those who have no tolerance for those who disagree with their "correct" opinion.

Anyways...OP, let us know if you have any other questions, or how we can help you. Sorry for the sideline convos.

Dude is a troll. The thread had nothing to do with what he thinks of Sac. He just came in and spewed his venom. For the record, I said one had to be on crack to think bay traffic was better than Sac.

The fact that he can not read, confirms my thoughts.

That is simply factually untrue. The bay is rated as having some of the worst traffic in the US.

Anywho, pay him no mind. He will go back under his bridge.
