The lounge runs more adult than most boards. It's also more relaxed and respectful than most boards. This means rather less sarcasm and snarky comments (something I have to control when I post here, since I'm pretty cynical by nature). This means that if someone says "that bothers me", the expected response is "Oh, sorry, I'll avoid that in the future".

There's been a couple of more prickly people around here. There's been some exceedingly sensitive people around here. Play to the middle and respect it when someone suggests you've swung too far one way or the other and call it good.
