Everyone's gonna have a go at me for saying this but :emoji_zipper_mouth: it I'm gonna say it anyway because there's so much pointless bickering atm.
The problem is, that's how we all talk to each other in here. We're all rude and condescending to each other. But then we've all known each other for ages and in real life so it's ok. It's not really a supprise, however, when new members try and join in with the established tone of the forum. Perhaps, if we were all a little less bitchy/reactionary to each other, new members wouldn't be either. Maybe...
*awaits bitchy, scathing response'.
