In what way have you been mistreated on this forum? A number of people have made constructive suggestions regarding your situation. In my reading, I don't see how any of them could be misconstrued as 'mistreatment'.mr.72 wrote:Pressure to conform and mistreatment of outsiders is not beneficial to any group that wants to increase their influence or audience.3dfxMM wrote: You mention the cycling culture as a parallel, yet you somehow feel that the CCW culture is more offensive and troublesome.
Having been one of the few to read your original post, I tend to agree that you're painting the 'ccw-culture' with an overly broad brush. Maybe you should take a second look, and think that maybe folks are just trying to help. If the advice they offer isn't applicable to your situation, file it away for later use.
