The Chainlink

Why so much hate Chainlink?

Why is there so much negativity in this space?  Am I just totally out of touch with reality, or are the forum rules totally disregarded with unpleasant attacks being the norm?  It seems like no-one can get involved, or ask a question without a gang of trolls jumping in and hijacking the thread.

I feel like I am partially responsible because I haven't been doing this enough but we should all be emailing the moderator more often: report@thechainlink.org

The forum rules are very clearly posted and I feel like there is a group of posters whom should clearly be warned or booted due to their disagreeable style of discourse.

I feel like our community deserves better.

What a delightfully obscure reference! (at least to me) I thoroughly enjoyed tracking it down.

Rorschach's journal, October 13th 1985. 8:30pm.

...are so few of us left active, healthy, and without personality disorders?

 

In a world filled with radioactive isotopes, being a noble gas is difficult...  Oh my I sound like this...

 

 

Whoa feedback!

Because people often view anything that is not in agreement with them to be hate and often feel anything that is not a 'nice' comment is an insult.

 

As someone who is, in the eyes of many, probably one of the people considered a 'hater' I will say this:

 

With the exception of one or two people I dislike for personal reasons that have to do with real life I don't hate, or even really dislike, anyone on this forum.  I try to make as many events as I can and almost always enjoy meeting people from here, even the ones I disagree with. 

 

Not to sound like a huge jag but if being called an idiot on the internet or enduring some chidding for your opinion upsets you this much life, in general, must be very difficult.

 

I will also ad that this, of the many forums I participate in or have used in the past, is one of the nicest out there when it comes to behavior and that the moderators here do a very good job.

I love you, persons.

 

No, really.  There's never been a "I hate the hate" moment for me on the chain.  If I don't understand or agree, I ask a question or ignore.  And I don't read anything following Gabe's evil picture ;o   I kid...I think.

 

Overall, I keep coming back.  That has to say something.

We should have a "haters' happy bike event". Have some team building bike love followed by a happy picnic and beer. And a hug fest.

I'm kidding, of course.

Maybe.

But not about the beer. I'm serious bout that.
