I see what you're getting at, though it felt good to share something that's been on my mind for a while, which I guess got dredged up again after I got frustrated from reading this thread. I probably harped on that part of my post you quoted for too long, as it wasn't as relevant to this thread as the other stuff I posted. I knew I was going to get criticized for my post, and so far the backlash hasn't been as bad as I expected. I think it was more about me oversharing frustrations I have with myself. I don't post a lot here, and in a moment of internet frustration, I said some stuff that while I meant it, probably should have been kept to myself, although it felt good to get it out there, and I didn't care about the backlash.
See, I'd be fine with your venting about all that in a different context (like, say, in the S/H/R/A/MI thread), but it just didn't have the right tone/implications within this thread.

And I was upset, because no one else seemed interested in defending affectperdals
I just have trouble agreeing with you, here.
Especially after doing a bit of research into ap, dude has a history of stirring shit up and blowing the fuck up on people (just have a quick look at Reddit ).
Like ctc and Raj said, it appears that ap prefers to relegate his more abusive ramblings to PM's rather than bring things out into the open.
Plus, he clearly can't handle mild sarcasm without acting like his family was brutally murdered before his eyes by a snide comment.
