maybe plutarch was an only child, and doesn't realize how brothers and sister get along.. but everyone here feels like family...
Question : Has anyone ever been to a family gathering where everything went perfectly? Where nobody's feelings got hurt? Where nobody felt left out of the inside jokes? Where nothing anybody said was taken the wrong way? Where a bit of teasing was misconstrued as a "dig?"
Speaking for myself, the answer is "no." And here we meet almost daily, not just the three or four times a year. Things may go awry once in awhile despite our best efforts. I confess my feeling have been hurt once or twice. But in the great scheme of things it was a pinprick - soon forgiven and forgotten. That's what you do in a family! I just licked the wound and - as you can see - I'm still joining the party! As some wise person once said : "If you truly forgive, there is no need to forget."

Out of 2750-odd "members" only about 50 or so seem to be regular posters at any one time. A lot of people probably treat this board the way I treat a number of others - dip in, have a look, move on. Others will have registered then never quite got around to doing anything further.
A few will join in, then realise it's not for them for one reason or another, and go elsewhere.
That's no one's "fault". I cannot see how Plutarch could believe he was being picked on, but that's his affair and he's decided to go. So be it. He's not alone. Probably 2,600 of the registered members see things pretty much the same way if for different reasons.
So what? Move on. Enough self-evisceration, already!
