It's a shame more people don't stick around on this forum after they move here. You probably have a lot of insight you could share with other people in the same boat.

FWIW, I don't think the OP was arrogant. We all need to blow off some steam once in a while.

Stick around!

Awww, twc...stick around. Its ok. I'm really the only mean one on here and as long as you have a sense of humor...I promise not to bite! I don't give out neg points without signing my name so you are safe there.

As for those that move here and then moving on...I've actually sent a few of my clients to this forum to gain insight and ask questions that even I may not know the answer to. Yes, I'll admit there are things I know nothing about!

A few of them stick around but then eventually they get tired of the gloom and doomers and the obnoxious ones voicing their opinions without a grain of truth or experience.

And as all Forums, once people move here and begin adjusting to the areas and finding their way around...I guess we are just no longer needed. Sometimes you gotta let 'em go!!!

I have to say that I didn't sense even a spec of arrogance in lLeigh's post!! maybe MY sense of humor has been warped by too much caffine, but I took it in the spirit which i think it was intended...A JOKE!!!

aww friend, I am sorry you feel you would rather not return to CDF. I understand you are in research mode and gathering info and that is serious business . This is your life we are talking about And can be a very stressful time for ya.

I completely understand how it seemed stumbling across a thread such as this when planning a move to this area etc. You are new to this board and cannot possibly understand the activty this particular forum generates. But that should also be taken into consideration from the regulars of this forum. And even in posting something they feel is in fun maybe the regular members can look at it from a new members point first. Or even take it to one of the other forums available for venting if they need to vent.

You will find the NC members will always be glad to help you, but also understand they do work overtime as I said cause of it being such an active forum, and at times show they are only human by venting . It happens.
They are a pretty good bunch of peeps and are rather funny once ya get to know them. And I know it is difficult to try and determine who is being serious and who isn't on the internet with peeps you do not even know, but maybe give them a chance again. They ain't too bad of peeps . They just need to learn to use smileys more when they are joking
