"1. Are things really as bad as everybody says or is it just a chance for people to vent their spleens anonymously?"
and
2. "Sweeping statements that the "majority think it was a good move" do no favours to anyone looking for help."
Goes to prove just how warped the information is on prune.
DirectAnywhere has made a "sweeping assumption" that "everybody says things are really bad".
Jack Schidt has stated his opinion by saying that "the majority think it was a good move". At least he has offered some degree of qualification with his remarks about the 1500 that aren't writing here.
Silence means that the majority can't be bothered with some of the Cr*p that is written here.
People will like this place to varying degrees, I have my opinion and keep it to myself because I see no point in ranting or raving here.
