When will this storm cloud go away
Saturday, May 10, 2003 by Keila | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
There has been a very dark cloud hanging over Wincustomize for far too long now.
Frankly, my husband is getting sick of hearing about it.
Keila makes the big mistake of talking to him about it.
So, if for no other reason then for the sake of my marriage. Please can things can brighten up a bit around here.
From reading what others have said I know many people feel the same way about the darkness around here.
So how about supporting this site the best way we can. With ourselves. Not with our ability to create beautiful things but with our ability to be kind, helpful, forgiving but most of all friendly.
Friendliness will make the dark cloud go away.

Generally 'problems' are better sorted by contacting an admin direct and discussing in private
I agree Jafo.

i've noticed a quite different tone to peoples' interactions since the prelude to and carrying out of the war in iraq. a certain number of people really split their pants without restraint in the various related threads. i don't think anyone is sitting around mulling the particular over-the-top words of any one particular individual, but i think that a lot of people, down at the deep subconscious level, were left with a very bad psychological taste in their mouth that hasn't dissipated, and were dumbfounded by the extreme depth of hatred and total disrespect shown in some of the venom spewing. the earlier "niceness" around here suddenly was made to look very hypocritical, like some form of fair weather, smooth seas illusion of harmony and mutual respect.

I guess people didn't think that there would be a 100 different belief or ideals and that once they are known the other 99 would pounce on them with there beliefs. So I guess there could be a lot of animosity there. That could and did upset the apple cart. Oh well. live and learn.

i don't think that banning the "war" threads would have helped much. they at least focused the rampant animosity in a small area, instead of spreading it around the board.

Maybe they will think before posting such a controversial thread in the future.
