Pam, please stop doing that. It's an over-reaction. MTP didn't say anything particularly cruel or unkind just now and you blew up in her face. If we are all to be friends, we surely must be able to feel comfortable talking right? We want honesty and easy communication right?

Well, that goes both ways. You yourself have recognised that you sometimes snap, take things very much to heart and post angry and upset messages. When you do that, the person you have snapped at might be left feeling a little hurt. Especially if they hadn;t said anything unkind to provoke it. Your earliest interactions with MTP involved precisely this happening: she said something innocent, you misunderstood and took offense and blew up at her.

You have not been given a warm and enthusiastic welcome. It is understandable that you feel that everything said to you is an attack. But it really isn't. Sometimes it's just an established member of the board giving you advice, or a heads up on how to navigate this complicated little community.

Just chill. Nobody really wishes you ill. People are just having a laugh.
