 Personality change
Have to agree with the general sentiment here. Posting successfully on a forum like this takes great care if one wants to promote a positive image on buying kit/real life rescue incidents/whether DiveGirl is great/good/or whatever.
As we have more people on board there will more friction from the incomers. Its a bit like living in a small village and having a mega housing estate built at one end. Initially there is a lot of disruption but eventually most people pick up the rules and everyone rubs along.
To my knowledge I have only upset one diver on this board, for which I have apologised, and should have taken more care in the posting.
I have only made one complaint about a post and issued one red blob. I was not alone in complaining either.
I have no problems with robust debate. I welcome it. If someone wants to challenge my kit configuration, views on Suunto computers, or anything else that is fine. Just don't descend to slagging competition.
I have been on here nearly a year and find it great fun. I have had received a lot of assistance with computer virus issues, wifes diet, and even some dive knowledge.  |
