1. What you said was interesting. It was also a reiteration.

2. I was responding to Megan, not you. The "we" was meant to distinguish those of us she was pointing the finger at, those of us who correct people, in this post. She is the one who said you were a new person, and "newbie" is the internet term for a person new to a community. You *are* a newbie, so how that is offensive is beyond me. As to the "we" of my subject line, I meant "the boards" in general.

3. If you were offended, as mirfak said, that's your business. We said nothing in a rude or inappropriate way, "we" being Ariel and myself.

4. How things "feel" and how they are can be two different things. Your feeling excluded and untolerated is a case in point.

5. If you plan on continuing posting on any online forum, perhaps you should develop a thicker skin. Not everything is a personal affront, contrary to your apparent belief.
