Falls,
I really admire your attitude about admin. I think it's a really mature way to think about it. I agree with you, but unfortunately sometimes I'm just not able to control my irritation.I don't really know WHY I get irritated. I'm not sure what I want to fix or do...it's a good thing to think about. Maybe it's just a really childish way on my part of wanting to irritate people who irritate ME. I know that's "small minded" but hopefully you all will continue to like me even if I'm sometimes not the best person in the world. (please!) Sometimes I just get so irritated by posts on admin that I WANT to irritate the person who wrote them. I know that it's guaranteed to make me feel worse in the long run, and that it won't help the situation at all. It's just -- I don't even know how to describe it! I guess it's a way of saying "This is driving me nuts!!!" Obviously there are better ways...and I know not reading it at all is probably the best way.
One thing I want to say, though-- I post on some other boards that relate to my career. I've noticed that the moderators there lets a LOT of stuff go - cursing, ranting, blatant racist comments, etc. I have to give the people who run this site a LOT of credit for helping make this a safe place and a fun place to post!
