I know, I know, I've been misunderstood before. Just being a smart-ass.

I'm willing to bet these results will be skewed because most of the people who have had a negative experience probably haven't stuck around afterwards just to give feedback. This poll just makes the place look perfect when it's not. Positive for me though, obviously. Or else why am I still here?

I always enjoy myself here at MB. I have made a handful of friends through the years and I just think the world of them all, I won't mention any names because they know who they are.
Other than that, I just never really take anything seriously on the Internet. at least in the sense that drama affects my day in anyway. I see drama and trolling by other members as being entertainment and nothing more. I don't believe in intentionally hurting someone's feelings on purpose, unless I'm provoked.
MB is the No.1 music forum on the net, and I'm glad to be part of the community.

It somewhat bothers me that there's this whole trivializing of human feelings just because it's a different communication media. I don't know what the rationalization is there. I mean, people say "don't take things seriously. This is the internet." but what they really mean is "it's ok for me to be an ******* because this is the internet."

To me, it's just a real as any other experience; I'm interacting with human beings. Their willingness to treat other people like crap is telling of their character, regardless of the nature of the media through which they do it.

I dig this place. The variety of people, and lack of a major clique, makes it easy to fit in somewhere.

Lots of cool chill people to counteract the angry ones, cheers to ya!

I don't think anyone is suggesting its okay to be rude and obnoxious. Instead, its not paying attention to the ones that are.

I mean when the rude and obnoxious ones say that. I can appreciate the idea of not getting fired up by them.
