Just wondering if anyone else has been getting a catty vibe from this site lately.
I remember first getting on SW in April and being surprised and amazed at how positive and supportive everyone was. But lately, IMHO, it's been a bit bitchy as of late (especially in HH).
I'm almost afraid to post things in case someone 3 years ago asked a similar question/made a similar statement, or in case one of the "higher-ups" thinks my question is stupid. It's starting to remind me of high school, to be blunt. If you have something negative to say, or if the thread is repetitive, why not just ignore the thread instead of pausing to say something off-putting?
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then feel free to say so (and please do some self-reflection before answering--I realize this is the kind of question people get defensive about). I'm not attacking anyone--especially not specifically--but am I crazy?
(And please don't leave comments like "if you don't like it, just leave SW" because I've really enjoyed being part of the site and having it as a resource. I'm just opening this up for discussion)
Has it seemed a bit catty around here lately to you?





And of course that's just one example. It was definitely more positive and friendly 3 years ago.
It is hard to be a newbie here, but once you get into the swing of things, it's good stuff.

I think for the most part this site is of the good and that's what keeps me coming back.
