A stranger can view things completely objectively and give you a different view point. So I can understand why someone would post a personal problem on a forum where they are anonymous.

That said, anonymity also means that some people feel like they can act like a complete tnuc or like some sort of big hardman so there will always be people that are only too happy to take the piss or go beyond that.

I'd say that in the majority, the ninjas are a caring bunch. I remember quite recently there was someone on here who seemed to be in a slightly odd frame of mind - lots of concern ensued and time was taken to make sure the matey was okay. I'd say that's a damn good thing.

have made my day. I am very proud of you guys and am very happy to be here. You are quality people....I wish I knew a few more irl but this will suffice 'til I come visit your island and pwn your teas. nah but seriously, ninjas mostly are aces. even when feisty, there's always a good vibe and that's blissful. then again....i think its the bass too. cuz.....er....gamer forums are horrendous and highly mean-spirited. So not the vibe here.
