My turn to weigh in Cody and it's going to be long but I hope you read it all.
For every type of person you meet in life, you're going to meet the same types on a forum, especially one as large as this one.
In real life if you meet the agressive type, your fight or flight mechanism sets in.
On a forum, the flight mechanism is somewhat subdued because of the anonymity and the lack of physical presence and the fight mechanism is enhanced for the same reasons.
Unfortunately when you 'fight back' on a forum you are going against your nature and panic sets in because once you 'fight back' you're likely to get another aggressive response. Where do you go from there? You fight back again and the panic rises even more because you are going even further against your nature. Soon it spirals out of control and you feel like crap. The person whom you have been fighting with probably doesn't feel like crap because they have been going less against their nature than you have.
The end result is that others reading the posts think less and less of you but their feelings don't really change towards the person you've been fighting with because they are used to that person being the way they are. As a consequence, you are perceived as being disruptive but the other person isn't.
Another problem I feel that you have is that you don't give people a chance so people don't feel that you deserve a chance.
All of the regular posters on this forum have one thing in common, they have developed relationships with other members, even members that they butt heads with from time to time.
You come across as wanting everyone else to change to keep you happy. Realistically that's not going to happen. You however can change, and in changing, people will start to change their attitudes toward you. Not every one will, that's life but enough to make a difference.
You're not going to develop any relationships (not positive anyway) where you are currently posting, you're just going to butt heads and nothing is going to change.
The best place for you to develop relationships with people is in Post Your Photos and Mini Challenges, Games and Photo Stories.
BUT YOU NEED TO BE INTERACTIVE. I've just been through the threads you have started in Post Your Photos. You have started nine threads and I found the word '
THANKS' only once, that was in the earliest thread. Most of the time you don't even bother to respond at all. People take notice of that and consider you ungrateful so they stop commenting. Thank people and also start commenting on other peoples pictures. You don't have to critique them, just pick ones that you like and say so and why.
Finally,
DON'T expect things to change overnight, you have to work at it and be sociable. People have to have a reason to like you. The fact that people are taking the trouble to post in this thread means that people do give a damn. Now it's up to you to convince us that it's worth our while continuing to do so.
