Has the thought occurred to you that your own behavior might have something to do with it? These folks accepted me with open arms when I started posting here last year. I didn't agree with several, over different issues, and that was with long-term, high-post-count members. But generally, I didn't come in swinging a purse.
A little courtesy goes a long ways.
Although it MAY be possible that I didn't make my entrance to the forum in the most courteous way, though I would personally dispute that, I personally consider myself one of the most courteous forum users you can find. Please remember that my grandmother, who I had a very strong bond with, which as a logical person I do not form easily died yesterday...
I completely accept the fact that what I am suggesting is impossible, that is why I have a problem with it! My first post may have been lacking in details, but additional details would not have convinced any of you of ANY possibility of truth to what I am saying, but those details are what caused the difficulty FOR ME...
