I try to be nice and welcoming, though I am mature enough to admit that I haven't been as welcoming in recent months, partly due to stress. I'm taking a break right now from most things, especially after the month I just had, as you may have noticed I don't actually critique things in the OC threads as much as I used to, though I do still join conversations if they pique my interest.

I never experienced that hostility - or if I did, I didn't notice it was hostility, as this wiki was really the first place I actually joined beyond maybe one comment dropped in then leaving. I also don't really go anywhere else, as I like this wiki and have made some friends here that I enjoy talking and sharing ideas and a love of something with.

But I do kinda wish people would point stuff like  hostility out to me more often, especially since most of it happens while I'm either sleeping or at work due to timezones. I'm a Forum Moderator and yet I never see any of this stuff happen. It makes it hard to start cracking down on that sort of thing, especially since I may just read something as just a firm statement of opinion rather than hostility, whereas others may feel that people are being hostile to them.

Case in point, I have to go to work now when this conversation is happening. Joy of joys.
