Over the past year I have found that the Lounge seems to have become a place less tolerant of opposing points of view.
Rather than an intelligent exchange of ideas and opinions many of the conversations include either obvious or veiled insults or condescending comments towards other members.
I have been guilty of this myself and I apologise to anyone who I may have insulted.
The world today seems to be full of so much hate and this is evident on many social media platforms or chat rooms. Unfortunately in the on-line world there are too many people who think they are the smartest person in the room and are more than happy to spend their lives trying to prove it.
I would like to think our little community can be better. Perb should and can be a safe place we can all express our thoughts, no matter how they may differ from other's points of view, without being insulted or talked down to.
I for one an going to try to be better and again I apologise for anything I may have said that insulted or made anyone feel uncomfortable.
We can be better.
Cheers
