"Fuck off" wasn't even close to what I meant; I thought I was pretty nice about it, but now... well, you can go ahead and take your own suggestion.The hell it's not what you meant. Just because you found passive-aggressive wording for it doesn't mean you weren't giving me a clear message that I should shut up or get out of Dodge. I post several posts a day here, and you are saying that this is probably not the place for me. Do you not see the insensitivity in saying that?
And who says that I'm only making this post just for myself? As far as I know, I'm a member of a community here, and in reasonably good standing. Since I was already thinking about formatting and visual/neurological issues, it occurred to me that many people in the world are epileptic, and I thought I'd mention that as an issue that might not have been considered yet. You don't think it's important to make the site friendly for epileptics? Okay, that's fine, it's definitely a minority group. But consider this: 1% of people are epileptic right now, 4% will develop some form of epilepsy in their lives, 10% of Americans will have at least one epileptic seizure at least once in their lives, and this forum has. . . how many members? You do the math.
But even if I'm a minority of one, and everyone's fine with walls of special fonts, all-caps and red-blue strobing gifs, I don't see that putting in my two cents should result in you telling me the "internet's not the place for you." It is, in fact, probably the only place for me.
