I don't know, after reading some of the comments on this thread I wonder if anything I write is welcome here.

I am probably being paranoid, but when people speak in such generalities it does make you wonder who they are referring to. Maybe next time you find a post you take exception to you should comment on it on that thread.

i think its interesting that someone pointed out upthread that a lot of the palliness follows from AIM chatrooms. and i hate to say it, but a lot of ilx AIM chatrooms, though individuals go out of their way to be welcoming and thats a good thing, hardly ever talk about anything with any relevance to me. sometimes ilx is like that too, but frankly you have to take the good with the bad, lifes like that. nicole, trust me, you have nothing to worry about.
When one wanders into an internet community for the first time, as with a party in real life really, more self-conscious types (eg ME)
i find this initial statement interesting, because N you don't come across as particularly self-conscious on the internet at all.

Unless you're me in which case the content of the AIM chat convo is whatever I have to say abt what is on my TV at the moment and not much else.

I am very self-conscious, lucylurex. I carefully examine all the things I am about to say and decide they are great. Ha ha. Actually I meant more in real life, I guess.

See, this is a good example of a thread which went into deep psychosis for a while there but managed to crawl back out of the abyss!
Oh it gives me hope.
