Fairly straightforward post and I have been dived on. Same happened to me a couple of weeks ago (different usernames to this … I change often). I’ve seen it happen countless times to other people usually those who are clearly anxious over something and then they get mocked about it or other derisive comments.
Why do people do it? Do you think it’s just a boredom thing? Or people think they can, since they’re anon? It seems worse on here and on chat and a lot more constructive and supportive on some of the other boards. I’m not going to trot out the ‘be kind’ as obviously it doesn’t apply to all situations, but why go out your way to be mean?
