So who exactly did you call out that is now responding in a negative way (or ot responding at all)?
i think sometimes the problems with internet interpersonal relationships, eespecially here, is that people take it with varying degrees of seriousness. And the serious nes can vary within one person from time to time.
Some people consider their interactions as good as in person. Others think it's like writing with marker on a glorified bathroom stall. The serious one is incredulous to not being taken seriously. They flippant one can't believe anyone would take it so seriously. And, like i said, the same person can hold those two opposite opinions , just taking turns with each.This compared with the somewhat difficult task of deciphering the intent of a given post when you have language, age, culture, humor, and writing style differences, coupled with the absence of visual cues to help you figure it out, and this kind of forum is fertile ground for misunderstandings.
