You may not know this, but I don't have much experience visiting forums or chat rooms online, and I just took for granted that people were nice to each other and respectful in every way.
Well, over the past year I have really learned a lot different! I have learned that chat rooms and forums can be some of the meanest and nastiest places that you can possibly visit. Places where bullying takes place, and name calling is part of the norm. And please don't get me wrong, I am NOT talking about the company forum. That place is still mild compared to some of the places that I have seen over the past several months.
Over the past couple weeks, I have been visiting several forums (completely unrelated to this site and company!), and have found that they are nothing more than places where foul language is being used, and people are incredibly rude to one another....and I am talking about sites where you would THINK they are mature.
Anyway, I have come away with a deeper respect and pride for all of the members of THIS forum. You know when you visit here, you are among friends and you are safe. It's a place that oozes security and warmth, and is really a comfortable place to talk about things. All I can say is...You guys are the best! Thanks for making this one of the best sites on the net.
