What is wrong with people on forums??? I am on a forum for english speaking Expats living in Germany; and everytime I post a question, I seem to get about 70% negative responses! Sure some are nice, but many reply as if I'm stupid to not know the answers! I just moved here and I have a lot of questions!
Last time I asked a question, I got reamed out for not rushing back to my topic to thank everyone for their replies. I was away from the forum for only an HOUR and I finally said "for goodness sakes!" and went back and thanked them. Then I got a PM telling me I should put "Thanks in advance" in every topic I post.
Now I know it's polite, but I seriously forgot! I'm going to get shit for it?
I even had one ass tell me I should see a shrink possibly because I was worried about my kitty escaping through the window because Germany doesn't have window screens! He then proceeded to try to give me shit because my cat was front declawed. To that i told him I wasn't going to start an ethics drama. Oy....
My husband is on there too and we've both been getting similar treatment. I don't get it; we do searches first, are polite, don't backlash at rude comments, etc. Very respectful newbies.
WTF???????!! Can't people be nice? The common thread of the forum is supposed to be english speaking people from other countries living in Germany that help each other!
