It's really hard to determine intent or emotion in posts. So just give some clarification as to why. and I'm sure any of us will apologize and support you.

To the rest of us:

but it goes both ways. we can't just shut down when we read something we don't like... and when we don't see eye to eye.. we just say need to say, "thanks anyway" and agree to disagree.

I know it's a total cliche but I think what some of us are referring to with the old lounge is a not only the "happy place" but a forgive and forget attitude. People would have knock down drag out's and at the end of it they'd post a smiley and they'd be right back to normal... No harm no fowl... but again... it was never mean or insulting... it was always respectful...

I like the way Brian and Mysteek go at eachother.... it's not vulgar... but pretty brutal... but they know when to quit, they know not to go to far...

That's Not everyone can tease like that... So just be respectful to others get to know them, apologize when you accidentally offend them, forgive someone who accidentally offends you and all is well.

In general we tend to expect those around us to treat us the way we want to be treated... What was so cool about the lounge is we all treated others how they wanted to be treated.... It made for a pretty cool spot.

tl;dr
