Jewel, I don't think anyone was criticizing you. I just think that a lot of members here have been hurt by the antics elsewhere. If you read this whole thread, you will see that the members here take things in stride and find things more humerous than anything. Please don't be upset.
SA is a place where we try to keep things light hearted and good spirited. We enjoy some humor, whether it be true humor, juvenile humor or sarcasm. We also like to focus on sweeps chat.
This is a great place. I hope you feel free to come here as much or as little as you like. Lurk, participate, pm, sweep, whatever. There is no battle between us and them. SA is a great site with a lot of different features. Try them out. You might like them.
I'm happy you are keeping in touch with some friends from there. It is always nice to see a familiar face pop in. All my best!
