Mad...there's no reason for anyone to leave...what needs to happen is we all need to take responsibility for our actions.
It was right of you to speak up because otherwise we wouldn't have taken stock over the fact that what was going on was possibly uncomfortable to others.
As I have said, I don't know what it was like before when the *huggle* threads started...all I know is what it's evolved into. I do know that I would hate it if I had done something to help alienate someone else and make them feel uncomfortable...and even after that first time you said something, I did change my ways, I think I need to evaluate even more. And others should too without being offended.
We are all here to support each other. That is the purpose here. And I think we do that...but sometimes, things are taken just a little too far. (Which, I will say, I admit to doing that, at least before the first time you said something.)
