  It was mostly people saying personal attacks weren't helpful and self reflection then this post came out and said "IM TOTALLY BUTTHURT SO IM TAKING MY BALL AND GOING HOME". I'm not really sure which is worse but neither is good.

    then this post came out ... I'm not really sure which is worse It should be perfectly acceptable to decide you are done with a conversation and want out. We can't demand people stick around to be abused.

    I'm sorry, I'm unclear--are people supposed to just stand around to accept the abuse of Internet strangers?

      The problem is that a lot of people (up in the thread) seems to think that it was just "criticism" and not abuse. (Whatever the real facts may be)
