It seemed like the most offense that was taken at your last post was its denigration of Bostonians...regardless of whether they were SCAdian or not. I wasn't born here, or raised here, and hell, I haven't even lived here for very long, but I chose to live here because I love it, so it kind of hurts to read someone putting it down. Obviously you are entitled to your own opinion (especially in your own journal) but it might be wise to remember that some readers may identify with whatever classification you happen to be putting down.

They instead give you encouragement. I find whenever I post, even when it is not oriented at someone, people feel the need to comment that I am offending them and that I shouldn't

The most recent post was the ONLY one where anyone "came down" on you, and it really struck me as a very mild comment. I think the "Bostonian" translation went something like this

I meant that I see a lot of post you make where you complain about something. I was stating that to show that when you complain I see a lot of people support you
