I have noticed that this board has got markedly worse recently. Its become the person you know who insists that they are not being rude or cruel but "I just tell it how it is, not my fault if you are over sensitive"
I dont think that its ok to say "Well if you dont like it then dont read it" when some people post with real problems. What about saying "If you have nothing helpful to say then dont say anything?" or better still, stay away from AIBU when you are in your cups of a weekend, it is very clear who has seen the bottom of the bottle and think they are hilarious.
Sometimes people ask silly questions, so what?! Either answer the question or dont, but why be nasty and mock the asker? None of us know everything and sometimes yes we do miss the obvious.
What I find ironic is that many of the posters who are cruelly mocking with the on AIBU are the same people who encourage a poster to go NC with RL friends or relatives who display that exact same behaviour!
And yes, I do know what will happen now, but I feel I needed to say this as frankly the posters I am referring to are an embarrassment.
