I've not been a steady contributor to the forums but I have been a Q shopper for a long time. With that sentence alone, 3 people have whispered "who cares" 2 have went to see exactly how many times I've posted & read them hoping to see a contradiction in what I'm replying here. That is the problem. Older members have a stay off my grass attitude towards newer posters and the welcoming committee very seldom shows up.  It's off putting I'm assuming bc it sure was for me.

 

Countless times I've read a post with a simple question that inveriably is hit with a who cares, here we go again, what do you think-that they care about you? Or the they're not your friend. I made it a habit at first to search out key words of what I'm looking for so that I don't get the side eye (which I'm 100% getting now just bc I'm still typing) and to not upset anyone with my god forbid question. Don't look. The side eye is on them, not you. I asked the question last week re not having anything nice or positive to say why bother replying at all? Everyone is entitled to an opinion. The same people who repeatedly post that they do not buy this junk here bc it's from china, they turn the channel bc the mere sound of someone's voice drives them to drink, certain hosts talk to much or about things no one cares about, the food is overpriced over salted dollar store marked up trash.....yet here they sit. Waiting & choosing who will catch thier wrath. Forums for other giant social media platforms don't have as much criticism or plain ole rudeness as this board and I'd bet all my money the members of this platform are 30+ yrs or older....it's unfortunate  I don't know whata social media you use but I've seen a whole lot worse on facebook and twitter (I deleted my twitter for other reasons so don't go there anymore).

(10 people just said I probably don't have any money to bet, 6 people just said what makes me think 10 people would care enough about me to reply)  You have to laugh. They're either jealous or one of the crazies in our country.


 

A couple of comments above.  You are entitled to your opinion. People will disagree and that's ok. Just don't let the anonymous nuts get to you.
